The Secret Of the TrOtter.

fFOIu the New YORK Sul.
AS that fragile but indestruetible entity, the
trotting record. is constantly broken and re-
stored again, the minds of all sensible turfIlen
are turned to examine the qualities in horse
that enable so many animals to do it.
In the first place. it can't depend on sex.
The first record below 2:20 belonged to a m 1re
Flora Temple. Hers was broken bv an ami nal
OF the male persuasion. Dexter. Then anothe
mare. Goldsmith Maid. smashed his record and
this il turn was Knocked into cooked hat by
another male named Rarus. Rarus record
was broken by st. Julien. similar animal:
ST. Juliens again by one of the other sort.
Maud S.; and then after the honor was a second
time assumed BY st. Julien. and second time
won by the mare. it was taken once more uDon
the shoulders OF the sterner sex. that is, on Jay
Eye-Sees shoulders only to be immediately
transferred back to MaudS. There for the pre-
sent it promises to remain until Jay-Eye- See
finds more congenial track and trots faster
than he did yesterday
Horses don't break records because they are
Of any particular age. Goldsmith Maid did il
when she was sixteen. or thereabouts md
Jay-Eye-See and Maud $. both did il when they
were six The other record breakers were of all,
intermediate ages. Netheris it ON account of SIZE
color Or shape. Rarus is bay. Dexter brown
Maud S. chestnut. and Jay-Eye-See black
Karus is sixteen hands high. and the Others
setti" gradually down until one comes to
Flora Temple, and she was less than fifteen.
Rarus is known as the lOng-backed horse.
Jay-Eye-See is rather compact. liz this 81 ort
list OF record breakers there are long legs and
short legs. long tails and shot tails. or in Flora
Temples case, hardly any tail; also all sorts of
gaits. dispositions. and pecuarites of temper.
There is good breeding. had breeding. and what
might be called no breeding at all. No ont of
these horses could be called like the Others
though they We're all trotters, and that's where
the whole secret lies.
Taking all these facts into consideration.
therefore, we teel justified in saying that the
aDliity TO break records. to trot faster
than other horses depends wholly upon The
possession OF a combination Of superior SIP led

''lt is worry and not work that kills" Let
every owner of horse think. when he brir IS
