sta lion Santa Claus was sold this week for
$25, 900 to Mr.. John W. Shaw, the owner of

Shaw'S horse, Charles Champion.
Jane Murray has been added to the list of
brood mares which have produced three
trotters with records of 2:3O and better. Her
son Lottery, by Rysdyk's Hambletonian, has
a record of 2:27;lWilllam H., by Sampson, a
record of 2:29, and Clark s., by Edward Ev-
erett 2:27A. This makes five mares that
have thrown three 2:30 trotters, Green Noun
tain Maid, Flora, Kate, Lady Fulton and Jane
Murray.
Mr.. George A. Nash, has got new road
ster, and he thinks he has got the best one of
the several he has owned. He is big strap.
ping fellow, strong l6 hands, a splendid set of
limbs and feet, and good barrel, dark
brown with black points, and coming Z
and strong with good length of stride.
Properly developed Mr.. Nash believes he has
trotter
treasurer of the Minneapolis Driving Park
association, that he has met with severe loss
in thei death, by the prevailing epidemic,
horse, Gen. Sigel. The death occurred Friday
morning. Gen. Sigel had been tracked but
little, but he had fine turn of speed, was easy
of control, and had he lived there was every
prospect of making good turf record.
Mr.. Ed. Stewart, the well known lumber.
man of Saltwater, has had the misfortune to
by the prevailing epidemic. The horse will
be remembered by st. Paulites as formerly the
property of Mr.. George Hazard, agent of
| the Minneapolis q st. Louis railway, this
city. In carriage and general appearance in
harness Hero Golddust took second place to
but few horses, while they were few indeed in
this section who could throw dust in his eyes.
Mr.. Robert Deakins' trotting mare, record
2:27, has dropped colt foal to the thorough
bred stallion Exchange, by Lexington.
The youngster when moving faster than a
walk invariably strikes a pace, at which
gait he moves easily and
| fast. AS both the sire and dam have shown a
| fine turn of speed at their respective ways of
| going, it is not improbable the youngster NAV
develop into Little Brown jug, or perhaps

Mr.. Scott, the well-known animal painter,
| has lately added to the horse portraiture of
the country, excellent likenesses of the b. s..
Won Arnin b. S., Spottswood; b. m, LADY
| Rolf; and e. m, Sannie g., the property OF
| Commodore N. W. Kittson, owner of the
| Kittsondale stock farm. Three better sub.
| jectsi to transfer to canvass than the three
| fine animals, does not often fall to the lot OF
| an artist, and the best praise that car be given
Mr.. Scott is that the portraits are most faith
fulrepresentatives of the originals.
OF the youngsters making their debut al
the recent Breeders meeting, the performance
of the S-year-old filly Regina has attracted
| most attention, she distancing her three com
| petltors in the first heat in 2:32X. Regina is
| by Woods Hambletonian, dam Mary Ann by
Magnolia, son of Seely's American Star. AT.
ter the performance Regina was put ND at
| auction, and found a purchaser in Mr.. b. J
| Nichols at 81 1850. Commodore Kitson wa:
one of the bidders, running the price ND tc
$500, when he left the contest to Mr.. Shaw
and Mr.. Nichols, Mr.. Shaw making the figures
an even $4,000, when he declined to Mr.
Nichols final bid of another $50.
The rivalry between the owners of doubl,
teams shows no signs of abating. Instead
every week seems to add to the interest ant
uncertainty. The figure which all are tryinf
to wipe out is the 2:19X of the team of Mr.
Frank Work, Edward and Dick Swiveller
