BEMIs AND BUTTERFLY.
H. V. Bemis Of Chicago, was engaged in
negotiating for Butterfly, for which he was to
pay to the Boston party, Charles N. Perkins,
$4,000, with the expectation, as is supposed,
that John Splan was TO drive her, but owing
to a delay in the receipt of a telegram, James
Golden stepped in and took the mare at the
figures named. The dispatches that passed
between the parties in Chicago and Boston
have been published, and they are of such
character as to indicate there was some kind

WHAT sPLAN SAYS.

Turf, Field and Farm: John Splan writes
us from Chicago: 81 have just returned from
a trip to the northwest, where saw the Mid
way trotters and met the Commodore, who
seemed to be very much pleased with the
performances of the different horses. The
statement that 1 have engaged 10 handle
Commodore Kittson's horses next season is
not correct. / have not yet decided what l
will do. While away on my trip l bought
for a private gentleman in the east the black
m are Lulu Judd. She is 1873, weighs $40
lbs, and has a record of :26H. The price
given for her is not to be made public" Mr..
Woodmansee, who manages for Commodore
Kittson, has been talking, we understand,
with w. w. Bair about training and driving
the Midway PAGERS and trotters next season.
Mr.. Splan is not authorized to make such
a statement as the above in regard to Messrs.
Woodmansee and Bair, and it may be added
that there is no foundation for il. sir.
Splan takes particular pains to introduce the
statement with the phrase ''we understand, -
which leaves him a very convenient loophole
through which to back out.

FITZPATRICK.

Wiltes' Spirit: Fitzpatrick viii probably
continue TO ride for Commodore Kittson
next season, at least so he told us the other
evening at the theatre, where we met him in
the lobby with Carson and couple Of friends.
He has several offers, but while he has not
as yet signed with Commodore Kittson, be
will no doubt continue to wear the Erden-
helm stripes, in which he has been quite
successful with Panique aud Ratapian, win
ming the Withers, Travers, and Iroquois
stakes and The Lorillard stakes on Ecuador.
Should Mr.. Mclaughlin go to Mr.. Lorillard,
it is quite certain that ''FitZ" would succeed
him TO to the famous red jacket OF Dryer,
but at latest adviees this is rather unlikely,
and as the Erdeuheim stables has large
number of highly promising youngsters,
''Fitz'' will be very likely to gain as much
renown in its gorgeous jacket as be would be
in that of the Dryers.

John Splan is going to drive for Mr.. Bemis
next season, and that-the latter was endeav-
oring to buy Butterfly with the special view
of having Splan drive her. All this is indi-
Gated by the following paragraph in the
article, in the Spirit by Veritas:
/ hear that Mr. II. V. Bemis and John
Splan will reach here tomorrow. John will
drive Belle F. next season. Mr.. Bemis also
agreed to buy Butterfly, and lie not satisfied
with the manner in which she was sold to
Jim Golden while he was in treaty for her.
Generally speaking the driver of horses
has the legal and moral right TO drive for
whoever he pleases. II, however, MIR. John
splan should drive next season for Mr..
Bemis he viii be engaged in a very strange
proceeding.
Mr.. CROSS PAINTINGS.
Mr.. II. H. Cross, the well known animal
painter, has been in st. Paul for several
weeks, where be has been engaged in paint
ing picture Of Johnston, Commodore Kit
sons great PAGER. This picture is about six
feet by four and a half or FIVE, and we have
ne hesitancy in saying that it is one Of the
most striking animated and life-like of all
the pictures we have seen from this artists
pencil The grand old horse stands alone In
the center of the anVass, without a bride,
lifting his head on high, and with IL turned
slightly to the left, precisely as a hand
some, well bred game cock holds
his proud head, and just
as Johnston throws up his head when he
comes out of fast heat. Mr.. Cross has got
a wonderfully accurate likeness Of this King
Of the PAGERS, and one that marks out in un-
mistakable lines all the remarkably fine
points the horse possesses. Mr.. Cross says
that Johnston is the most gamy horse he ever
placed on canvas. He certainly has that APP
pearance. as he stands with his beautiful
head turned to the beholder. 1t is a great
picture, and a large number Of people have
visited the artists room at the Merchants
hotel to take look at the picture Of this re-
nowned animal.
Mr.. Cross has also painted several pictures
of Mr.. j. j. Hills Shorthorn and Polled An
gus bulls and Scotch rams.
The latter are magnificent sub
iects for painter. Mr.. Cross has made
the subject Of animal nature his life study
and has reached remarkable degree of per-
lection in it. He certainly has the knack
or genius. or whatever else it may be termed,
for placing on canvas in very striking
manner, most life like picture of his sub
ject.

An Outrage, /,

Yesterday afternoon, as an old lady
was crossing Main street, at Murphy,
opposite the HERALD office, carriage,
driven by fancy yellow negro, came
rolling along, and without word OF
warning, ran over poor old woman.
She fortunately caught and saved her
sell from serious accident, only getting
cut slightly behind the ear.
The affair was witnessed by number
of reputable citizens, and universally
pronounced q gross outrage. The negro
was understood to be driving for a
prominent divine, whose name can be
given, and the police should apprehend
him at once, and see that he Is fined Ia
the full extent of the law. Such reck-
less driving must be stopped, especially
when poor old woman is the victim OF
a negro drivers carelessness.

swell If you think there are but few
in this city who believe IN spiritualism
you are most woeiully mistaken" said
well-known citizen to n HERALD re-
porter yesterday. "Why" he contin-
ued "there are several mediums resi-
dents OF this city and regular meetings
are held, yet there are so many who
make sport of spiritualism that the
meetings are private. Now and then
some one of the circle introduces a
friend who unless he is a
toregone skeptic Is certain to be con-
verted and become one of us. There
are great many frauds who pretend to
be mediums, and others who profess TO
espouse II, as thoy term il. But not
outstanding this the believers in it are
rapidly increasing. AS far as that goes,
most any one can catch at least a
glimpse of the spirit land by going
through u certain performance
"How is that?" asked the reporter.
"Well, II you will go into dark
room at night, sit down
in a chair with tho soles
of your feet resting on the floor, sit up
straight, cross your arms and shut your
eyes, you will see visions OF the spirit
land in the course Of q couple of h6urs.

to try that many times, but it works
like charm and never falls. The Wis
ions are grand and beautiful and you do
not experience the least fear, but on the
contrary realize that YOU arc sur
rounded by guardian angels. Try it,"
The reporter thanked him, but, AS the
HERALp Is morning paper, he mot
give the matter test. Ills inlormer
has promised TO introduce him to spir-
itualistic meeting, however, and if he
was not downed by them, and does not
feel them as much as he had reason To
belive his spiritualistic friend did, he
will have more to say on tho subject.
