MAUD 8.
How She Accomplished the Feat
YESTERDAY.

How She Accomplished the Feat
Yesterday.
AS announced in EvsRY RvKsIEa's dis
patches yesterday Maud 8. has again
reduced the trotting record, making a
mile at Lexington, KY. in 2.094. A
longer dispatch states that Mend 8. has
proved herself greater mare than ever
her late owner, W. Il. Vanderbilt, or hsr
present owner, Robert Bonner, ever
thought she was. Hiram Woodruff, the
old-time trainer Of trotting horses, laid It
down as an iron-olad law that 'tyou could
never have fast mile after frost had
struck ground" Last week Toe formed
repeatedly and took the elasticity from
the soil. sobsr-heSded mon like DR..
Kerr said 1t was too late for Maud 8. TO
attempt to do what no horse except her
self had ever done. Enthusiasts, how
ever, predicted that the record would be
broken. The day was bright for Novem-
Der. There was large gathering Of the
very best people Of the "blue grass
region" at the fair ground track. Hum
dreds Of church-going people were
present, among them several divines.
Mr.. Bonner was grati6ed to see . discard,
oonspiouously posted Cd the grand stand,
bearing the words: "No betting al
lowed"
At II 30 Bair came out behind the
queen and gave her q warminR-up mile
in 2.26a. The judges and timers were
Msjor H. c. Mcdowell, Col. r. West and
W. Il. Wilson. In the opposite stand
were Mr.. Bonner, holding time-wstoh
in his hand General J. r. Robinson, B.
Brodhead, Mr.. Riohard Anderson and
Hamilton Busby. The conditions under
which the performance was made were
written in the record book:
Maud s. will start to beat her own record
OF 2.09Sl, and, should she beat the record,
WOODBURY. Farm, where she was bred, will
commemorate the achievement by awarding
to her, through the Kentucky Trotting Horse
Breeders Association, q cup, with the time
made by her engraved theron.
Bair logged the mare AROUND the track,
went to the head Of the stretch, came
down and nodded for the word. Maud 8.
did not make q single mistake. The
time Of the first quarter was 32a and the
halt mile 1.04. The .hrse.quartar pole
was reached in 1877, and here Mr.. Bower
man Joined her with q runner hitched 70
a sulky. The finish was strong, and the
judges stopped their watches at 2.O94.
a majority OF the outside watches made
the time 2.09. The scene when the
queen returned to the stand for Bair to
weigh was indesoribsble. The crowd
oiled the qusrter stretch and oheered
until their throats were husky.
1t was the greatest performance OF the
kind ever seen, and the Kentuokians
shouted as only KentuokiAns can. Mr..
Bonner was congratulated on every side.
Prominent breeders like General W. T.
Withers, NJ. D. Sweigert and Mr.. Tod
hunter pressed forward to take him BY
the hand. When Grant, the colored
groom, was cooling Maud 8. out on the
lawn, scores of ladies gathered around
and asked for the privilege Of touching
her on the nose. Mr.. Bonner's frat CON-
gratulAtory dispatch was to Mr.. Wander
bilt. The mare will now be turned out
for the winter.

SUHOOHER LABELLED.
The Ann l. Lockwood Captured by
MArahRI Nc Mullen.

From yesterdays Every Evening:
The schooner Ann L. Lockwood Of
Boston fell into the hands OF United
States Marshal MoMullen early this
morning in libel preferred by the cap
tain and owner of the schooner AnI,ie
Hall Lister OF this State. The msrshal
had long wait and great deal Of diff.
Guilty in coming up with the Yankee
craft, but his keen scent for q
nautical fugitive took him to
the Lock wood despite her attempts
at battling. Hearing the vessel had
cleared from Philadelphia early yester
day morning, the marshal, with his
Hook on the tug Taurus TO await her GROSS
ing ever into Delaware's Jurisdiction.
Twelve hours brought no reward and
darkness, almost impenetrsble, settled
about the tug with the officials aboard,
Vessels were continually passing and the
marshal ran back and forth into the river
lest the Lockwood escape him.
About O'Clock, after making perhaps
80 trips in vain, the Taurus ran along
side tug with schooner in tow and
we'll surrounded by other echOoners Of .
fleet. The marshal inquired the
sohooner's name, and the captain in tell
ing him gave him the name OF q schooner
that he knew had gone ont few minutes
before. This aroused the ofioiEPs sus
pioion and the Taurus was run alongside
the schooner, and the furnace doors being
opened threw light upon the vessels
name which read, Ann L. Lockwood. The
libsl was served, and the schooner now
les at anchor in custody of the mouth OF
the Christians.
About year ago Captain Pearce Of the
Annie Hall Lister, in coming from Maine
with lumber was struck by heavy gale,
shipped great deal OF her deck load and
sprsDg leak. She was anchored of
Block Island Life Saving Station, and her
crew pulled ashore to communicate with
her owners by Wire and ask for help. Ga
the Lister live dog was kept until the
party returned. The crew after reschipg
land had TO tramp three miles to tsle-
graph station, leaving the captain to
watch the s,el, While he Was walk
ing along the shore schooner, he alleges
1t was the Lockwood, went alongeide the
Lister and either slipped or hOisted her
anchor and took her in tow, afterWArd
abandoning her several miles up the
coast, where she was recovered with
much additional damage to her hull,
rigging and cargo, and nearly every
movable thing removed. The libel /.
brought to recover upon the losses sus-
tanned by tine Lockwood towing the ves-
eel awsy, knowing that she had mot been
abandoned. Ex-Governor Hall Ia owner
