The entriesfor the $4,000 double team race,
offered by Mr.. Wesley P. Bach. to be trotted
at Beacon Park, Boston, June IA, and the
other events announced for that day, close
May l. Although great interest has been
created in double team driving, and many fast
pairs have been matched, the lndica-
tions are the race will not fill-ive
entries being required-most OF the really fast
double teams being owned by gentlemen who
do not take part in public races, but own and
drive fast stock solely for the pleasure en-
joyed and its healthful tonic.

Mr.. ~. Hamlin, of Buffalo. N. Y, in pur.
chasing the stallion Mambrino King, of DR..
L. Herr, Of Lexington, KY, for $4,000, is
evidently to be congratulated. In speaking of
the transaction the Liue Stock Record says:
Mambrino King is trotter, and taken all in
all, for form, size, bone, muscle, disposition,
gait and grandeur, is the most beautiful
specimen of horse to be found In America.
We roget to see such a horse leave the state. !"

The report given through the unreliable
Pioneer-Press that the pair of bay geldings,
Wachita and Walrush, full brothers, by Alex
ander, (2.2sx) out of Belle, by Telegraph
Black Hawk, recently sent east by Messrs.
DeGraf & Hopkins, of the Lake Elysian
stock farm, had been sold Co the president is
all bosh. They were sold to Mr.. W. II. Smith
of New York City, for $1,000, and we have
1t from good authority that that gentleman
has been offered $1,000 for them. A
hands omer, better bred or pleasanter driving
team are hard to find, while they have plenty
of speed for road purposes. Mr.. Smith Sc
cured big bargain when he purchased the
team for $1,000, and we are inclined to think
that desire to favor a friend had consider
able to do with their sale at that figure.
