better than 2:30 gait.
In introducing an extract from the
GLOBE, the TugJ, Field and Farm says:
''The st. Paul, (Minn) DAILY GLOBE, one
of the best posted and most entertaining
of our western exchanges" etc., for all of
which the Turf will accept thanks.
Mr.. W. H. Wood, superintendent of H.
G. Finkle's trotting horse breeding farm,
Moorhead, was in st. Paul yesterday, en-
route to Owatonna for short visit to his
friend, W. f. Mucky, who has lately estab-
lished a large breeding establishment near
that city.
The Turf, Field and Farm says: SAT
Winnipeg, Manitoba, a man by the name
of McQuirk, and his horses Clark, Chief
and Montana Belle, were disqualified for
fraudulent entry, Clark Chief being enter
ed in the 2:40 and 2:36 classes when he
previously had record of 2:35.
The Chicago Times of Saturday says:
Little Brown jug, the celebrated PAGER,
who has the best on record, 2:114, to his
credit, has been retired from the turf for
the present season, and will not therefore
pace during the present meeting at Chi
cago. He will be shipped to st. Paul and
turned out"
In the trial in New York last week for
cruelty of Ezra Daggett. who drove the
horse Boston from New York to New
Haven, against catamaran, Daggett was
discharged by Judge Deming. The dis
charge was on the ground that, while the
horse had been driven that distance, it had
been kindly treated and properly cared
for.
Commodore Kittson's big mare, Fanny
Witherspoon, by Almont, out of
Lizzie Witherspoon, fully sustained
the expectations that had been
raised by reports, by winning the 2:19 race
at Chicago, Saturday. in three straight
heats, as she pleased. 1t is pretty safe to
say that the horse that beats her this year
will have to trot better than 2:15.
George B. Sherwood, of st. Paul, pre-
prletor of the Sherwood stock farm, Shell
don, Ia, has a colt that will bear watch
ing. He is by Baymount, 1927, son of Al
den Goldsmith, 733, by Volunteer, 55, out
of Molly Martin by Old Mack. The colt
is named Cricket, and he will be three
years old in December next. On the 4th
Of July, on the public track at Sheldon,
grown up to weeds which were mown only
the day before, he trotted against two aged
horses, mile heats, best two in three, win
ming in two straight heats in the remark
ably good time of 3:08, 3:05, and this with
out being pressed, and with comparatively
little work.
The raciIg stable of Chinn & Morgan
was shipped from Chicago to Monmouth
Park, Long Branch, Sunday the 9Th, and
arrived safely at destination Wednesday
the 18th. The stable consists of the yet
unconquered Leonatus, Markland, Sudie,
McNairy, Efie G, Monte, Scalper,
Banquet and the Harkaway colt. The first
engagement of Leonatus is in the Omnibus
stakes at Monmouth Park, one and half
miles, August IS, but it is probable that
part stake race will be arranged in the
interim, in which Leonatus, Geo.. Kinney,
Pizarro and Iroquois, the great American
Derby winner, will try conclusions. Such
race would bring out the largest crowd
ever seen on an American race course.
We desire to acknowledge the receipt of
seven gallons of buttermilk, from the
Pennington creamery, ]. 81. Hargraves,
superintendent, accompanied by the fol-
lowing explanatory letter: Through Mr..
R. G. Judson, I learn that you sigh occa-
sionally for draft of buttermilk, and that
your fondness for the lacteal fluid causes
you to visit remote parts of the state to
crafty your appetite. Now, by way of
Introduction, 1 this day forward
to you by U. S. express, seven
gallons as sample of the buttermilk that
flows from our vats as free as water from
an artesian we'll. If it should fraternize
with your digestiAe organs, drop down,
and will give you reserved seat where
you can sit in the shade and drink milk
and catch brook trout from theVermiIllon,
which flows by the door of the creamery,
and by gazing obliquely past the cream
cry you can watch the gambols of Peter
Martins trotting colts and pick out the
one that is threatened with speed"
Judge Walter j. Hayes, of Ringwood Park
Stud, Clinton, Ia, has added to his farm
the veteran Minnesota trotting stallion
Star of the West. Star of the West was
foaled in 1860, and is therefore twenty
three years of age, and though he has done
large amount of stud service, and also
considerable hard track work, he shows
but little signs of age, and last fall at the
state fair, in heat race, showed his abili-
ty to trott better than 2:35. He was sired
by Jackson's Flying Cloud, son of vt.
Black Hawk; dam by Eureka, son of l.. 1.
Black Hawk; G. d. by Dover Messenger.
His record is2:2614, made in 1872, and be is
the sire of Lady Greesbeck, 2:2515, (now
owned by Com. N. W. Kittson); John j.
Cook, 2:291a; and Jim Raven, 2:30, ani
several others who would be in the 2:3O
list or better If given an opportunity.
Judge Hayes in his announcement says:
''He is the only stallion in Iowa, standard
by blood, by his own performance and by
the performance of his progeny" Judge
Hayes is to be congratulated upon getting
possession of so good horse, and the
many Minnesota admirers of the old
horse will be glad to learn that he has
fallen into so good hands.
