Midicay Notes.
DOUBLE TEAM RACES.

The Turf, Field and Farm, mentions as
among the probable entries for the $4,000
purse, for trotting teams, to come of at Bea
con mark, Boston, June next, the bay mares
$3.50 (2:i74) and Lady Rolfe (2:224 J, owned
by Commodore Kittson, of this city. The
statement of the Turf is little premature.
Lady Rolfe was bred in August last to Won
Arnim, and is thought to be in foal. How
ever, she is being driven with o.So, and II 1t
should transpire that she Is not IN toal, there
is little doubt that the pair would be among
the contestants for the rich purse offered by
Mr.. Balch. In anticipation of Lady Rolf be-
ing in foai Fannie Witherspoon, a:l94, WIN
he tried with So So, and if the two work well
together they will represent Midday in the
race. Should this not be found practicable, it
is understood the Commodore will secure a
mate for So So by purchase, as he has decided
to have team in the race.
AS another understood decision of MIR. Kilt
son, it may be stated that his stations Van
Arnim, 2:22, and his recent purchase OF Reye-
nue., by Smuggler, will be campaigned the
coming season. The services of both, es-
pecially the latter, in the stud, have been
largely app lied for, the applications coming
from Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois and Ohio,
as well as from home, but MIR.
Kittson believes that both horses are capable,
if put in condition, of making much better
record than they now have, and very wisely,
we think, has determined to give them an op-
portunlty TO do so.
MIDWAY THOROUGHBREDS.
The New York Sportsman copies the list of
thoroughbreds owned by Com. Kittson OF
Midwaway Park Stud, given in the GLOBE of
the 31st alt, with the following Introductory
comments
Soon. Kittson, of st. Paul, is now the
owner of the follwoing lot of thoroughbreds.
It will be observed there are some whose
change of ownership has not been previously
recorded. Notable among. them Is
Waltz, the dam of Glidelia and b.
lero, the latter a magnificent look
ing colt. Dalmacardoch as the Sportsman
has hithe rto shown, is nearly related to
Brince, lie reigning Derby favorite. Bruce
was GOT by See-Saw, winner of the Cambridge
shire in 1S6S, being then 3-year old, with Ia
lbs, the highest weight eyer carried by a
3-year old winner. Brince's dam is Carlnne by
Stockwell, and she is also the dam OF Brown
Bess, vel " good slayer. Carinne's dam was
Mayonaise, by Teddington. The dam, then,
OF this fine colt, who retired with an unbeaten
certificate, is half sister to Dalracardoch, bat
thew are still closer in blood to each other.
Dainacardoch's sire was Rataplar. Carinne's
sire was Stockwell, full brother to Rataplan.
Dalnacardoch is now fourteen years old, and
if he gets the right kind OF mares, onght 10
be great success. He has the bleod. WOOD,
lands is the other stallion, He is a well bred
horse, young, was good performer, and is q
great accession"
THE NEW STABLES.
The new stables at Midway, having been
thoroughly aired and dried. Will De occupied
this week, few of the less valuable animals
being transferred at first, to note the effect of
the chang e. A change to new building at
this season OF the year, is attended Win more
or less risk, but the risk of keeping such high
priced horses as Revenue, Won Arnlm, Lazy
Rolf, Fann q Nitherspoon and others, IN ola
wooden s tables dry as tinder,is so much greater
that if We were Commodore Kittson, a change
to an almost fire proof brick, such as are the
new Mid way buildings, even if green, would
be positive relief
