in stocks and mining. At one time
he was rated at half a million, but

curiosity, particularly to veterinarins,
who are anxious to see how
long the veteran will live, and thus settle
the mooted question of equine longevity.
Originally iron-grey in color Old Turks
coat is snow white. He is toothless and
has to be fed on ''soft food" Mr.. Robin
son says he knew Old Turk twenty-five
years ago, when he was "crack" trotter
owned, he believed, by Captain Jacob b.
Vanderbilt, and known as Guy Scuytis.
He was one of the wonders of the old New
Dorp race course, and was purchased by
Vanderbilt from Judge Claussn, who lived
on the old Richmond road, near New-Dorp
lane. A proposition made some years ago
to sell Old Turk, and thus save expense to
the county, created quite sensation and
evoked lively newspaper comment. Near
ly one whole day was devoted to discus
sion of Old Turks case by the board of
supervisors, and his name also fguerd on
the records of the superintendent of the
poor, who talked once or twice of selling
him. Thomas Mccormick, keeper of the
almshouse, says that when Major Barnett,
superintendent of the poor, proposed to
sell him, number of citizens dubbed to-
gether and agreed to purchase him and
pay for his keeping rather than to allow
him to be disposed of. He had done good
service to the county, and it was finally
decided TO pension him.

Mr.. N McKusick denies certain state
ments attributed to him by correspond
ent of the GLOBE in connection with the
Saltwater races, and writes Us the follow
ing note:
Turf Editor of the Globe:
SALTWATER, Mimi, Nov. %, 1883. My
attention was called to an article in the
GLOBE of Oct. %, dated Elmira, N. Y, in
reference to the races at the late Washing
ton County fair. In that article was
quoted as authority for the statement that
James s. O'Brien had full control of all
matters pertaining to the aforementioned
races. Permit ne to correct the same. I
did inform several gentlemen, when ques-
toned, ''That the judges had the full con
troll of all matters pertaining to the races"
Those judges were Messrs. ''O'Brlen," Her
sey and Anderson. AS to my saying that
Mr.. O'Brien had full control, the gentle
men certainly misunderstood me, for
O'Brien had the same authority and no
more than his associate judges. Yours re
spectfully. NEWTON M'KusIoK.
Secretary Washington County Fair.
