PROGRESSIVE EUCHKE.

IN, Indianapolis Preacher Condemns the
NesU-Fanoled Game
INDIANAPLIs, Ind, March 30.-At the. Sec
ond Presbyterian church last night the Rev.
DR.. Mcleod surprised his congregation Dy
making pronounced and decidedly vigor-
GUS onslaught on the progressive euchre
craze.'' The good doctor spoke with some
asperity, and declared that things had come
to pass when it is almost impossible to hold
a prayer-meeting with an attendance of re-
spectacle proportions, SO infatuated are the
people generally with this latest sort of dissi-
patton People who have hitherto allowed
the Kinks, the germans, and the high teas to
weld precedence to the prayer-meeting, have
succumbed to the superior fascin atoms Of
progressive euchre, and permit the prayer
meeting to take second place. DR.. Mcleod
was particularly pointed in what ne had to
say, and his remarks created some constern-
alton among his auditors. If the influence
of the dominic counts for anything 1t is
highly probable that, in the light OF his re-
marks last evening, progressive euchre Will
meet with a decided back-set among the
members of the Second Presbyterian congre-
cation.

Blue Bull as q Sire.
Turf. Field and Farm.

Blue Bull has more sons and daughters in
the $3.50 list than any horse that ever lived,
but thus far he is not recognized as the foun-
der of family. His blood has not bred on
like that of Ham bletonian or Mambrino
Chief. Time may change this. The oppor-
tunities of the horse were not the best. He
stool in section of the country where mares
of low degree abounded. Had he been SO
placed as to rejoice in matrons possessed of
the thoroughbred foundation, possibly the
charge of softness would never have been
brought against his progeny. That many OF
his get do not like races of divided heats is
admitted by his admirers, but enthusiasts
contend that the white feather would not have
been conspicuous In battle had the stake and
purse contestants been properly trained.
Calmer critics charge the white-feather sign
to absence of nerve-force and quality in the
maternal lines, and we are inclined to agree
with them. The fastest of the Blue Bulls are
Will Cody, 2:191s Zoe B, 2:204; .Silverton,
2:2O4; Chance, 2:2O19; Richard, 2:21, and
Mamie, 2:211a. The gamest of these is
Zoe B. PAGER as he was, and with famed
mares f1ocking to his court, Blue Bull stands
unapproached as producer of $3.50 trotters.
He has more than forty in the list, which
places him ahead of Ham bletonian or any of
his sons, and gives him more rank than
Mambrino Chief or any Of his sons. But
although great as sire Blue Bull was not
what Gen. Tracy would call progenitor.
His blood has not bred on like that of Ham
bletonian or Mambrino Chief. Thus far not
one of his sons has produced $3.50 per-
former. Hambletonian has thirty-nine sons
and daughters in the 2:30 list; eighty-four
sons which have sired $3.50 performers;
seventy-one grandsons that have contributed
performers to the $3.50 circle. and twenty
four daughters that have thrown 2 80 trotters-
His honors increase as the line lengthens,
and it is this which makes his blood SO highly
priced Mambrino Chiefs line also grows
in power as it gets further from the fountain
head. He got six $3.50 trotters; sixteen
daughters that produced $3.50 trotters;
twenty-one sons that sired $3.50 performers,
and thirty-four grandsons that are recog-
nized as the sires of horses with 2 80 records.
The Blue Bull line seemingly ended with the
life of the pacing stallion. AT least this is
the measure of unsympathizing critics who
regard only the present and who make no
allowance for the future. We are of those
who believe that the measure is hard and un-
Just. We think that time will show that Blue
Bull really established family.

two Of the otherwise respectable and very
costly boarding houses in Fifth avenue and
others are heard Of. The game is played pre-
cisely as in professional hands, except that a
banker is chosen for each occasion, and there

on his part, but # is called revolution, -
