delighted, for satisfactory League empires
are among the rarest Jewels. Kelly
has a clear. distinct voice and artic-
ulates plainly. He does not leave
the players and spectators in doubt as to
MS decision ON a close play. He has his
own ideas of umpiring. When there are no
runners on the bases he stands away back
against the catcher's backstop, and when a
runner reaches first Kelly takes up a position
behind second base. This enables him to
make correct decisions on the bases, but he

constant importing of letters of conRratula-

that brought higher prices were conspicuous
for their poor performances. Senator

So far the bay gelding Fred Folger is the
phenomenal trotter OF 1888. In his first race
at ~Poughkeepsie he made a record Of 2:20H
in the second heat. Fred Folger is owned by
d. De Noyelles, ofENew York, and was pur-
chased two years ago at Kellogg's combina-
ton sale for 5000. He is entered in the So
900 race at Rochester, and by virtue of his
performances at ~Poughkeepsie, Albany and
Hartford is a warm favorite for the first
money in this large purse.
And o everybody is talking Terra Gotta.
The idols of the turf come and go, and the
last to arouse enthusiasm Is the chestnut son
of Harry OFallon, who was foaled a chest
nut in 1859, and was got by a chestnut, Aus
~tralian, out of a chestnut, Sunny South, by
Irish Birdcatcher. With Mclaughlin up and
carrying 124 pounds, the four-year-old won
the Sheepshead Bay handicap, one mile and
a f~urlong, and broke the record, doing the
course in 1853. Behind him were Firenzi.
Linden, Grover Cleveland, Ordway, Tribou-
let, Eolian and Banburg. The performance
was a great one, and the multitude talks
Terra Gotta as it has at different periods

fellow, Harry Bassett, Ten Brock, Luke
Blackburn and Hindoo An important ques-
ton to be solved, says The Turf, Field

maintain his supremacy when he has an
antagonist of the r~esolute stamp of Tit Bardl
And when will 1t be solvedl Sensational
races grow out of the hotly discussed differ
ences of opinion as to the merits of horses
rooted for the moment in popular fancy.
The male line Of Terra Gotta is chestnut, like
himself, but the female line is bay. Laura
B., his dam, is a bay mare, by Bay Dick, out
of Laura G., a bay mare, by Lee Paul. Bay
Dick himself, as his name indicates, was a

color for a guide, the male line of Terra
Gotta is the strongest, and it logically fol-.
lows that the larger part of his quality was
derived from it. But our faith does not
abide In the arbitrary color descent theory.
We believe that In order to get a good
performer you must nave a good dam.
An international horse show will be held

Bur@ We have listened patiently TO
All the evidence thnt has come before
it, and there has been great deal of
IT,. The only reasonable conclusion
that anybody can come to, il the evil
dcnce is true is that dehorniug is use
ful and that it does not cause much
pain. 1t is all nonsense TO talk as
some newspapers do with reference
60 this matter. One Of or conten-
poraric>. aftor railing against the
fancicd cruelty of the operation, says
that the Galloways are "a hardy race,
and if anybody wants hornIess cattle,
breed them. Does our friend think
that people have such slight apprc-
citation Of the other breeds that they
will give them up SO easy? One man
thinks that there is no breed cqua! TO
the Shorthorn. Another thinks that
the Hereford is way ahead. Another
would have no other than the Holstcln-
Friesian or the Jersey or Guernsey.
Th.a men, perhaps, would as liethave
q Newfoundland dog as a Galloway.
1t is all nonsense to tell these people to
breed the Galloway. They want what
they have, but they may want their
horns off, and they have the right to
take them of, for anything that we can
see. 1t is barely possible that the
opponents of dchorning, if they will
closely investigate, may find that they
are IMPLY in the old rut that their
fathers made, and that they are simply
cnacting the role that those did who
solemnly declared that the earth did
not reyolve and raised the deuce with
the man that thought that it did.
Animals are ''mutilatcd" in a way that
is five hundred times more painful than
dehorning evidently is; but nobody
says anything in opposition. because
that is another rut. We are used to
that kind Of thing, but are unused to
the other.
