st. Saviour, bay colt (3), full brother of the

possible, and his absence will be generally
regretted, as he was expected to be the con-
ta.d;no boroo with Oop, =,
Rataplan. Tho two colts met in the Empo-
rum at Sheepshead Bay in June, and Rata
plan won easily from st. Saviour, who was con-
ceding him four pounds. In the Omnibus
however, Rataplan will have to shoulder 125
lbs, st. Saviour lis lbs, a difference of IL
lbs from the Emporium race, difference
which should bring the two cracks close to-
gether.
Turf, Field and Farm: COL H. s. Russell
has been requested by the Russian govern
ment to select for it an American trainer to
go to the land of the Car and found a train :
ing school there. The Orloffs of Russia have
trotting dispositions, but they have not been
handled in way to develop light-harness
speed. The vehicles are clumsy, the harness
heavy and not well proportioned, and the
methods of training bad. The government
very properly thinks that much benefit will
be derived by adopting the ideas which have
placed the American trotting horse ahead of
all others in the world, and it has confidence
in the views of the owner of Smuggler Col.
Russell has opened negotiations with Budd
Deble, whose name is so completely identi-
fed with the fame of the eX queen Of the
| trotting turf, Goldsmith Maid, and it is prob
able that Doble will arrange to spend from
one to two years in Russia He is well quail
fled for the important position, and he viii
teach the subjects of the Gar more in the
way of driving than they ever dreamed of.
