concerning jim Renwicll, horse recently
in training at Agricultural Park, and well
known by the sporting men Of the coast
The first race for which he was entered
took place at Jerome Park yesterday
We met Mr.. Buchanan trainer of Jim
Renwick, one afternoon recently. He is a
splendid specimen OF western manhood.
and speaks with such Candor that none
could fail to be impressed with his remarks.
jim Renwlck, as everyone now knows, is
one of the largest horses in training The
career of this horse is well worth study.
and Mr.. Buchanan gave US the following
particulars concerning him; He never ran
as a two-year-Old, as he couldn't run 600
yards. He didn't ran as a three-year-old,
but at four he ran nine races and won four
He was in Oregon and Washington Terri
tory and that vicinity. Last year he ran
fifteen races and won eleven. His near
fore ankle don't look good. Mr. Buchanan
has blistered it and bandaged it, but it
isIf't near so bad as it looks. In the Cali
fornia races it was nip and tuck between
him and Premium for three-quarters of a
mile, but at fye-eighths she ran very close
to him. He looks Il great deal bigger on
the track than he does in the stable He
may run at the coming meeting, but he
ought to have had couple of weeks longer,
when he would have been better prepared
The colors of the stable will be blue. In
the West Mr.. Buchanan had this horse and
Neallie. She was by full brother to Joe
Hooker. She ran five-eighths, and she
made it in 1907, and Jim Renwick did the
same thing He has trained horses i'll Cali
fornia all his life. AS we said, as a two
year-old Renwick couldn't run 600 wards.
and the parties who owned him sold him
thought he was OF no account, and his
present trainer got hold OF him. When he
ran against Patsy Duffy, he told the Jockey
Holloway to trail, and he did, but he
tailed too long, and he allowed Duffy to
get an immense lead of him, and didn't
commenceto close up.the gap until the end
OF the mile, when he ran up TO within a
couple of lengths Of the leader which sat
isfied Mr. Buchanan that he must have
run the last half mile in IS seconds, Al
though his leg looks bad his trainer is not
afraid of it. He has never been lame. but
il is kept handaged well. He will be run
at Sheepshead, if not at Jerome, as he NAV
not be quite ready"
THE LAST Observation-Disclosures of i'm

peculiar experience II answering the ques-
tons asked by the newcomers. Two or
three nights ago one OF them was intcrro-
gated 10 such an extent that he was almost
bewildered, but replied like any encyclo-
pcdia to everything asked, though the
questions embraced the entire range of
country from Alaska to Guaymas, and
John Smith to President Arthur. Finally
near New England Mills, the train stopped
in the vicinity of pond, the frogs in which

when a passenger brought him to @ stop by
clatching his coat-tails. and inquired /:
Say, Mr.. Conductor, what kind of birds
are those that are singing so late in the
evening"" The conductor was disposed TO
be angry at first, but, seeing that the cues
ton was in earnest, couldn't help laughing
as he answered Frogs; just plain frogs

imported from the East. The passengers
laughed, and let him OF easy on questions
