BIOGRAPHIES oF SOME MerED HORSES.
Erdsmheim is one Of the strongest studs
in America not in numbers, bat in the
character and quality OF dhe animals which
compose it. Alarm is its only thoroughly
tried stallion. He ran his mile in ADJ,
and this performance was the fastest then
made, and remained the fastest, for a
thcee-year- DID, for considerable time. As
a ghree-y ear-old he won all OF the races,
not having been beaten during the season.
Tsae following year he was PIT in training
and hs was handled by the late 4. J. Minor,
but he showed him a weak tendon III front.

Hinaya-'s performances as two-yea.-
cid were regarded rs phenomenal: and be
became the attraction Of the year. Mr..

lng for a worthy successor TO the greet

years Of age. The success OF Himyar in

CURED in the fall OF 1877. He at once ccn-
ciuded an arrangement with Major Thoitt-
as Cor the horse TO continue al his plfee
until the end OF the season o; 1878. The
following year (May, 1875, Leamir gton
died, and AlHrm YVES brought FROM Keu--
tacky in July, and Installed as Leamiag
toms successor at Erdenheim in
1879. The frst foals gotten
by him were dropped in the
spring of 1880, and hence were only two
two years old the past racing season.
During this year his youngsters have
shown we'll. Soubrette, out of Susan
Beane; Circassian, out of Austerlind; Par
thenia out of Maiden; Breeze, out of Blair-
gowrie, are all winners of decided merit.
Parthenia won her races so like race
horse that Mr.. Pierre Lorillard sent her to
England to carry the American colors for
the Epson Oaks next season. Breeze ran
a mile out, in September last, at Sleeps
head Bay, in 1.E2. This is the fastest time
ever made by two-year-old at that dist
lance. Good Judges declare that, Circas-
sian is among the best of the two-yes r-olds
of the year and do not hesitate to class
him with Miss Woodford, George Kinney,
Barnes and Pizzaro.
Alarm is now thirteen years old, and he
has shown so we'll in the stud in his early
years that his future is very promising,
for no is now III tine prime OF he, su1 is

he never enjoyed while in Kentucky; for

years old lie ran mile and three quar,ers
over the Saratoga course in 3:C5af, thea
the fastest time ever made at the distance.
Mr.. WEIGH purchased Reform a4ter he
had flashed his career as a race horse
in 1876, from Mr.. N. A. Littell; hut
Lea mingtOn was so popular as a sire, both
al Erdenheim and throughout the country,
that Mr.. WEIGH did not give him any mares
until 1878. 1t was May s, 1873, that Lean
i;,gton died. Alarm had been purchased
the previous autumn, but as heretofore
stated was left in Kentucky. After the
death Of bennington, Mr.. WEIGH was
forced TO rely on Reform to finish that
season. Thus he temporarily assumed the
robes of his greatly distinguished sire. The
following season, 1879, ten foals we're cred
tied to him or to bennington or Reform
as in many cases the dams of these foa.s
went to both horses. In 1880 there were
four foals by him; in 1881 three foals by
him; and in 1882, four foais, making a
total of twenty one foals up 10 the present
time.
Reform, rs stated, like nearly all the
SOUS of bennington, is horse of rare
quality and is most symmetrical aud
beautiful in outline aad proportion. His
countenance. eyes, nostrils and ears are of
classic mould, and his throttle and neck
are clean cut, the former as roomy as
pretty. His eyes are hazel brown, are
largo and full, and lie well to the side of
his head. His nostrils expand when in his
calmest moments and the fiery red mem
branes within are almost transparent.
His legs are perfect, and he is low i'll the
knees aud hooks. His quarters are mus
cGlar and full and indicate great power
