miscellaneous.

Among the trotting stations that are
getting boom this year by the per-
fOrmanceS of their get is Victor Won
Bismarck. At the Milwaukee meeting
last week Blue Grass Hambletonian, a
five-year-old by Bismarck, was a win
ner, and has record of 2:20%, which
will be reduced TO 2:1S or thereabOutS
if it is necessary to do SO to win. An
other son of Bismarck. three-year-old
called Edgemark, trOtted second heat
at Cynthiana, KY, in 2:22, trotting the
last half in 1:0915. This was a wonder
full performance. as was also that of
Kentucky Volunteer, two-year-old by
Bismarck, that at Falmouth won the
stake for trotters of his age with ease
in 2:4315, the fastest time ever made
over the track by twO-year-Old.
Another twO-year-old PAGER that shows
wonderful speed has made his appear
ance in Kansas. At the recent Fort
Scott meeting the PAGER, Gee Whiz. by
Abdallah Bruce, paced half mile in
1:12, the last quarter being done in So
seconds, and it was done in such an easy
style as to impress all who saw the
trial with the idea that Gee WhiZ could
have gone the journey trifie faster
had he been driven to do so.
Three hundred and fifty horses have
entered the 2:30 list this year, and a
total of 400 will probably be reached
before the season closes.
Nine horses, by Eleetioneer, have en-
tered the 2:30 list this year, which puts
the great California stallion well to the
front among SireS.

Local Horse Notes.

Jessie Pepper, daughter of NAM
brinO Chief, is the last mare to become
famous as producer of trOtterS, and
the work that made her so was done at
the recent Minneapolis meeting by her
daughters Alpha and Iona, both of
whom are by AlcyOne, record 2:27, he
being by George Wilkes and out of an
other noted mare, Alma Mater, by Mann
brinO Patchen. AT the Minneapolis
trots Alpha reduced her record to 2 2:2315,
while Iona won aheat in 2:22 fiat. A
number of mares have been added this
season to the list of matrons that have
produced two or more 2:30 performers,
but this is the first instance where two
trOtters out of the same dam became
standard by performance in the same
week and at the same meeting.
The Minnehaha Driving Park asso-
citation has claimed July 2, 3, and 5
for its summer meeting next season.
The association proposes to hold each
Thursday afternoon a race meeting, and
an entry for the different classes is
made of $40 to $50, the association to
add so per cent of the net gate receipts.
The money to be divided as follows !:
60 per cent to first, 80 to second, and 10
to third.
Several gentlemen in st. Paul are
making arrangements to hold a running
meeting in this city next summer. They
have already secured $4,000 for it and
are confident that a successful meeting
could be held here. AT any rate they
propose to try it.
A. V. Pantlind, that W. R. Merriam
sold last year to KnapSack Mccarthy,
has been sold to Col. Snowden, of Phil
adelphia, for road horse. He is ten
years old and is big, stylish fellow, 10
hands 3 inches high.
Dan WOodmansee, who went to Cali
fornia several weeks ago, has finally
taken up his quarters at San Diego in
that state.
w. l.. NcGrath says that he has an
other colt by Theseus that gives indica-
tions of more speed than Tipperary.
George w. Sherwood came in from
his farm a few days ago. and reports
that his stock is looking well.

AN EXPENSIVE LUXURY.
France Can Hardly Afford to Con-
tinue to Snub Her Southern

France Can Hardly Afford to Con-
tinue to Snub Her Southern
Neighbor.
Special to the Globe.
LONDON, Oct. 6.-The defiant attitude
of France towards italy is perhaps nat
ural, considering circumstances that do
not need recapitulation, but whether
the republic can afford the luxury of
snubbing her southern neighbor on
every possible pretext is very doubtful.
The French despise the sItalian, from
military point of view, and it might be
said they look contemptuously on all
other people in other points of
view, without, however, having con-
vinced the world of their general pre-

that the French wrath has to be tenn

the more formidable Italian allies. 1t
is quite probable that the endeavers
now being made to negotiate new
commercial treaty between the two
countries will be defeated on account
of the childish temper constantly eX-
hibited by France, and trade remain in
its present unsatisfactory state to the
detriment 10 both nations. Several
Italian chambers of commerce have
taken the initiative in the matter of
renewing the treaty heretofore existing,
but their advances have been without
effect as yet. President Carnot's decree

than the latter dream of; but if enforced
to the letter it will affect in a far
greater degree the Italians, who fairly
swarm in the South of France, and have
in a great measure replaced native la

Pacing Mares.

Fern Leaf. the daughter of the PAGER
Flaxtail, that is the dam of the PAGER
Gold Leaf, whose record of 2:1S as a
three-year-old is the best for that age,
is also the dam of the tFotter Shamrock,
that made record of 2:25 as three
year-old. To produce two fOals that
make records of 2:1S and 2:25 respect
lively at three years of age is wonder
full showing for any mare, and what
Fern Leaf has done will go a
great ways in strengthening the idea
that pacing blood is a mighty valu-
able cross to have in the pedigree of a
trotter. Breeders who are readers of
events came to this conclusion geod
while ago, and for the last five years all
the pacing mares that could go well
have been snapped up by men who
wanted them to breed to the best trOt-
ting stations in the land. The man
who took a lot of the PAGER FlaXtaiPs
daughters to California went to the
right place with them, for the breeders
in that state are set of men with pro-
gressive ideas, and they gave the Flax
tail blood a chance. The results are be-
ginning to come in early.

horses, won the heat by head, amid

After this heat the spectators began

Wilkes $50 and StambOul Sc. StambOul
appeared tired and was led from the
stable to the stretch by an attentive at
tendant, who famed him with large
palm leaf. Woodruff cooled out well
and looked comparatively fresh, while
Wilkes did not look so well. Another
beautiful start was had, and at the first
turn Woodruff was seen to throw up his
head for all Instant but caught quick
ly and passed the quarter post in :354,
and StambOul only length back: but
he seemed to be going to pieces, made a
tired break and fell to last place. At
the half in :I0S1, Guy was only length
and half behind the leader. 1t was
now do or die contest between Holly
and Goldsmith, and the latter sending
his horse along for all there was in him,
gained upon Woodruff gradually around
the last turn of the course. 1t must
have appeared to Holly that he was be-
ing outtrotted for he carried Wilkes out
wide on the turn. On entering the
stretch both drivers braced themselves
for a final effort; and if they did not treat
the CalifOrnianS to a horse race, they
never will. Woodruff responded to
voice and lash gamely, and finished a
half length ahead, amid the most in
tense excitement ever heard on race
course. 1t was case of dead game, in
which the audience were furnished the
best horse race ever trOtted in America
"a race which added other laurels to
the fame of Woodruff, as well as fresh
glory to his sire Nutwood. Time,
