SLEEPY TOM.

The Great Pacing Horse Which Created So
Much NOtOriety and Excitement in Sport
ing Circles, as Entered in the Pacing
Race.
Yesterday afternoon the GLOBE reporter
called upon Col. King to probe him for news
respecting the fair. The colonel didn't need
probing. Nothing of the sort; he was too
full to hold.
His first uttersnce was to express his de-
light at what he considers one of the great
attractions. and one of the lie ldiug features OF
his fair, in the fact that Joe Udell had Just
written him to enter Sleepy Tom in the
great pacing match. Last year it will
be remembered sleepy Tom was taken from
the track, aud this year has not started in a
single race. But III the mean time Joe Udell
has been preparing for the fall contests. IA
has brought Blind Tom up to an almost per
feet condition and now enters him against the
fastest PAGERS ia the world.
The Colonel is of the opinion that Tom will
crowd the other starters to their verv fastest
limit, and therefore expects this to be one Of
the most interesting and exciting races of fair
week. The purse is 5000, divided as fol-
lows: $4,000 to first; 81 500 to second 81 900
10 third; $500 to fourth. The entries thus
far are Little Blown jug, Lucy, Matte Brown,

BRIDGING MATTERS.
President BiJPs Proposition To the City
Council.

President Bi5ps Proposition TO the City
Council.
At the last meeting of the city council it
was voted that proposition for the city to
build the approaches for bridge at the
hight of 13S feet above datum,
and sixty-six feet wide, aud the St. Paul, Mn
neapolis q Manitoba Railway company to
build the bridge, be submitted to President j.
J. Hill. In response 10 this President Hill
makes the following:
PRESIDENT HILLS PROPOSITION.
II the city of Minneapolis will authorize the
placing of abutments across Second street not
exceeding ITO feet apart, the st. Paul, Mime
spolis & Manitoba Railroad company will erect
a bridge similar and equal to the ore now at
Holden street and will plsce the foundation of
the sbutments on the solid rock and will
have the abutments and foundations COM
pleted within three months from the publica-
ton of the resolution or ordinance aut6oriz-
ing the same, and the superstructure as soon
as contracts for the same can be made aud
filed, said bridge to be so made that tao road
way thereof shall not exceed the height Of
14O feet above city datum and 10 be accepted
and maintained in the same manner heretofore
agreed on in respect to the Holden street
bridge.
The company cannot at this time put lis
track in such location as will etfectually pre-
vent proper connections Herewith by other
lines, particularly as the improvements con-
,templated have these counections'i in view, not
only for the railways but also for the eonven-
fence of your sitiZens and the establishment
and maintenance of such facilities for hand
ling the passenger and freight business as
would be otherwise impossible. We are row
endeavoring 10 work to q definite plan that
shall give to the city of Minneapolis sdvanta-
ges and conveniences second to none in the
Country, and it is hoped the citizens VIII co
operate to the extent of concurrlng in the plan
herein mentioned. 1t is useless to say now
what may or may not be done later, but the
railway company will always be willing TO CO.
operate with the citizens 10 any plan that will
not defeat the main object we now have in
view.
