CAPTAIN SNIFFIN of the tug Pankratz
is somewhat like the craft he commands,
wonderful staying powers, strength and
solldlty, but makes no pretensions to
speed. He did not race with the tug
Goldsmith as reported; there was no
money up on the result and both tugs
went at their ordinary rate but CHANGED
to leave at the same time and the Gold
smith made the better time. But there
were no bursts of speed on either side.

HENRY LIEBNow has become prince
farmer. He did some land breaking in
Dakota this year and sowed 100 acres to
wheat. He returned frcm there last
week after experimenting harvesting and
threshing. His crop yielded him 5132
bushels of wheat besides large quantity
of oats. Farming on that scale pays and
Henry is only an amateur.

and not the term of service There is a

story was won from him by series of

owner of five geese which he wished to
rattle off, charging 10c. only for one
chance. In the dicker which resulted it
was understood fat goose was to seek
hayen of rest in The Pilot Office. But
like the false lover "he came not"
neither did George Belmont and there
is an aching void id stomachs which
nothing but prize goose can fill. Where

The Chicago Races,

Last week, at the Chicago Dirty in Q
Park the chestnut gelding Westmont
paced mile in 2014, with a running
mate, beating the record by Sc seconds.
This method of speeding horses was
invented in the east, and when Frank
and mate made a mile IN 2:0SI last
fall it was considered a wonderful
performance by the eastern press. In
the case of the trotter he broke several
times at the back-stretch, and was re-
ally helped by it. Westmont, on the
other hand, paced nearly the full mile
and went Of his feet near the wire,
and was pulled almost to a standstill,
thereby losing about two seconds.
On Friday, Jay-Eye-See was driven
by Ed. Bither, for his second heat
against time. There was hardly man
of the 5000 in attendance but believ-
ed that the fastest mile ever trotted
was about to be accomplished. Mr..
j. I. Case, the owner of the black geld
ing, had esconced himself in the
garnet of the judges stand, watch
in hand. Everybody in the crowd
who owned a watch had it IN hand
ready to follow the little trotter as he
went to lower the record of
2:104 made by Maud S. John Splan
appeared shortly after, driving run
ming horse to sulky. He was to &C
company Jay-Eye-See to stimulate the
latter to do his utmost.
After scoring a couple of times,
Bither came down to the wire at
clipping gait and nodded for the word.
The little geldiDg trotter as steadily
as a piece of mechanism and passed
the first quarter IN 81 seconds. He
kept right along and passed down the
back stretch with magnificent stride
There was a burst of applause from
the crowd when he passed the half
mile IN 1:034. He is going to lower
the record sure" every body said, eff
he doesn't break" He had gone to
the half too fast, however, and round
ing the turn at the foot of the back
stretch he began to let up a trife.
Splan sent the running horse up to
urge him on, but he only reached the
three-quarter pole in 1861. Coming
down the stretch he trotied steadily,
but failed to respond when Bither put
the whip on him. He was tired and
passed under the wire in Pill.
During the full mile he did not make
a skip, and he trotted every inch Of
the way. Considering the time of the
year it was really a great performance
and fully warrants the assertion of
his owner and admirers that he can
lower the record. The first quarter
was made at 2:O4 gait and the half
mile at a 2:061 rate. He did not make
any other attempt to lower the record
but merely trotted another IN the easy
time of 2:214.

A Bold Voyage.
San Francisco Bulletin.

Two natives of Denmark, Peter
Muller and Nils Peterson, sailors.
started on bold and dangerous voy-
age. They intend to travel from
Kodiak island to San Francisco in a
"bidarka" or skin canoe, following
the coast in all it's lndentations. The
distance to be travelled is considerably
over two and probably 5000 miles,
over every foot of which these enter
prising men propose to propel their
craft with their double-bladed Aleuti-
an paddle. Their craft is a double
ender, 10 feet 6 inches long, and two
feet four inches beam amidships. It
consists of a light frame of open
wicker work, covered with sea-lion
skin, with the exception of two oval
matches on what we may call the deck.
The canoe can be easily carried by the
two men, and as the depth OF the
craft is not over 15 inches, the bag
gage and provisions must naturally
be reduced to it's minimum Ia weight
and bulk, consisting of small tent,
blankets, frying-pan and tea kettle, a
rifle and shotgun, a so-called native
pump" for freeing the canoe of
water by suction with the mouth,
some tea, sugar, and -four .fsh-lines,
etc. The enterprise is exceedingly
bod in its conception, involving an
amount of ply sical labor, hardships,
and dangers appalling to most men.
But these men are possessed of I'M
usual energy and strength:
At the beginning of the present
century large fleets of similar car
oes in pursuit of sea-otters accomplish
ed nearly the same journey now pro
posed by the two Danes but then
they were accompanied by Russian
overseers in able sailing vessels to
which the canoes could rally in case
Of danger, and the progress occupied
more than one season, with long IN
tervals of rest and recuperation.
Even under such circumstances their
expeditions were attended with much
loss of life.
