The Tart, Field and Farm says: ''Mr.
Woodmansee looked at Jay Eye See with
the view of purchasing him for Com. Kit
son, but he did not show enough spirit at
the Gentleman's Driving park for the price
put upon him. Mr.. Woodmansee also had
his eye on Majolica." We learn from the
commodore that the price asked for Jay
Eye See was $35,000-a sum, considering
that he is gelding, that might well make
person, however plethoric the pocketbook
he was to draw upon, decide not to pay.
And Majolica is of the same stripe,
gelding, and his owner, like the owner of
Jay Eye See, is a millionaire, so that it is
safe to prophesy that neither of the horses
named will ever be part of Com. Kittson's
string.
Next week at Kalamazoo. the Midway
trotters are entered, Won Arnim in the
2:2O class, with Kate Mccall, Overman,
independence, Fred Douglas, and five
other good ones for contestants. Fanny
Witherspoon trots against st. Julien in a
hippodrome performance, and is booked
to drive the king out in good time; 2:14
says the GLOBE. Gem is in the free for
all pacing class with the gang, including
Matte Hanter, Fuller, and Flora Belle. The
balance of the stable will go direct from
Cleveland to Chicago, where later they
will be joined by Won Arnim, Witnerspoon
and Gem, to do battle in the great contests
of speed and bottom, from July IA to %
inclusive. The stallion Revenue is re-
ported as going strong and fest, and is
confidently expected 10 beat the time made
by Phallss at Cleveland wherever favor
able opportunity is offered
Commodore Kittson, who is now at
trotters now at Cleveland. The most fav-
orable reports are from Fanny Wither-
spoon, Won Arnim, and Revenue. Mr..
Woodmansee had gone to New York city,
under instructions, to look over Majolica,
and Jay Eye See, in view of purchase. Mr..
Straas, the owner of the former, was alb
sent in Europe. and the price put upon
the latter, $4,000, was too elevated for a
gelding. "Veritas," in writing to the
Spirit from Cleveland, says: '"Splan is
still here with Commodore Kittson's fast
ones. Mr.. Woodmansee is in your city,
and it is whispered about that he is look
ing for fast one, but if he had been here
this morning to see Fanny Witherspoon go
a few miles he would think that she might
do to go to the races even where first
class ones meet"
The result of the 500 race at Albany, N.
Y, in which the b. G. Majolica, by Star
tie, and the b. S. Phallas, by Dictator, met
for the second time, rather goes to show
that Phallas' defeat at the Gentlemen's
driving park, was not so much due to the
fact that his regular driver was not behind
him in the two first heats, as it was to the
more important fact that Msjolica eau
outfoot him. At Albany, owing to his
shoes not suiting the slippery and cuppy
track, Majolica acted badly in the first
heat, and Phallas won it in 2:2115. Then
Majolica's shoes were changed
and he went on and won the next
three heats and the race, in 2:1915, 2:20
and 2:21, each one better than the first
won by Phallas. The blk. g. H. B Win
ship beat Phallas in the last two heats for
second place, and in the third heat he fin
ished fourth, Judge Davis getting third
place. The fact appears to be that the
son of Dictator is a very speedy horse, but
that the son of Startle is speedier.
