CAREER OF ECLIPSE.
A Veritable Gold Mine Well
Worked by a Shrewd Military

n Veritable Gold Mine Well
Worked by Shrewd Military
Man.
Eclipse, the celebrated English race
horse, was bred by the Duke of Cum
berland, and sold at his death to Mr..
Wildman, a sheep salesman, for IS
guineas. Col. O'Kelly purchased a
share of him from Wildman. In the
spring of the following year. when the
reputation of this Wonderful animal
was at its height. O'Kelly wished to be-
come sole owner of him, and bought the
remaining share for 1,l00 guineaS.
O'Kelly, aware of the horses powers,
backed HIM freely on the first race in
1863. This excited curiosity among
sporting men; they thought the colonel
must have had .5cme extraordinary
reason fer betting largely Oh a
horse that no one had ever heard of
before, and that had not given any pub
lie proof of his powers. Some persons,
accordingly, tried to watch one of his
trials. which the owner, no doubt,
wished to keep as secret as possible.
They were a little too late on the
ground, but they found an old woman
who gave them all the information they
wanted. On their inauiring whether
she had seen a race, she could not tell
whether it was race or not, but she
had just seen morse with white leg
running away at a monstrOuS rate, and
another horse, great way behind, try
inc to run after him. but she was sure
he would never catch the white-legged
horse if he ran to the worlds end. The
first heat was easily won, when O'Kelly.
observing that the rider had been pull
ing at Eclipse during the whole of the
race, offered a wager that he would
place the horses in the next heat THAT
is, that he would name the order in
which they would be when
the foremost reached the win
ming post. This seemed a thing
so highly improbable that he immedl-
ately had bets to large amount. Be
ing called on to declare, he replied:
Eclipse first. the rest nOwherew The
event justified his prediction, for all
the others were distanced by Ecli pse
with the greatest ease THAT is, he was
at the winning post before they had
reached another 240 yards behind it,
called the distancing Dost). and thus, i'll
the language Of the turf, they had no
place. The pecuniary value of Eclipse
and his progeny must have been some
thing enormous. He was the sire of 354
winners, and these netted to their own
ers more than 100000, exclusive of
plates and cups. Ten years after he
was Withdrawn from the turf. O'Kelly
was asked at what price he would sell
him. At first he peremptorily refused
to accept any price; but after some re-
Election he said he would take 925, 900.
with an annuity of e5oo, besides certain
privileges. The seeming extravaganza
of this sum excited considerable re-
mark, but O'Kelly declared he had al
ready cleared more than e25.00G by
Eclipse, and that the animal was still
young enough to earn double that sum.

valley did not appreciate it as they
should have done, the change was sure
to come. The property is charmingly
located, and better site for masonic
home could not have been chosen. Hon.
Charles w. Hutchinson was the first
and last president of the Utica Driving
park. The inaugural meeting was held
in August, 1872, and the premium list
amounted to $50, 1000. Prominent among
the horses which have appeared on the
track are: Crown Prince, Flora Belle,

UTICA OUT OF LINE.
1he Driving Park to Be Converted
Into a Masonic Home.

Utica has fallen from the Grand cir
cult, but well-wshers of the sport will
hope to see her rise again, for she was
among the earliest to form the father of
circuits, and has struggled on year after
year to maintain her place in it. Frown-
ing skies, light attendance and general
apathy OF the towns-peOple during many
meetings have been the chief causes of
Utica's retirement. But it is only a
question of time, backed by the general
revival of trOtting interests, that some
Erich man will follow the example of
Jacob Rupert, at Poughkeepsie. and
rise up, saying: Utica shall have
Grand circuit trotting meetings again."
The last straw in breaking the back of
the old association was its iil-adviSed
conflict of dates with POughkeepsie last
year. The old members of the circuit,
with one accord. should have arranged
dates to enable POughkeepsie to take it's
natural place in the line of march. The
people along the route are now as ready
to patroniZe meetings in September as
in August, and there are horses enough
at the Eastern end to take the place of
the Western contingent which fell weak
and weary by the wayside or scatter
over the smaller meetings after finding
that their horses are not good enough to
act the part of conquenng heroes in the
grand campaign, which requires speed,
endurance, good generalship and money
to carry on the warfare to successful
issue.
The Utica driving park is to be con-
verted into Masonic home. The prop
erty is valued at $4,000, and its owner,
Hon. Charles W. Hutchinson. offers to
put it in at 0,0O0, thus really donating
$4,000 10 the cause. The citizens of
Utica are to contribute $4,000. The
Masonic brotherhood pledge themselves
to convert the property into park
which will prove an ornament to the
city. We dislike to see the Utica driv-
ing park blotted from the great circuit
chain, but as the people of the Mohawk

THE AYRSHIRES.
The American Agriculturist Gives
Dissertation of the Cows.

Description of the Cows.
The Ayrshire is eminently dairy
breed. The cows are active. hardy,
and will flourish and give good yields of
milk under conditions that would starve
pampered cattle. They have great
power of endurance, healthy appetites.
good digestion and ready adaptiveness
to all vicissitudes of situation and eli
mate. They are remarkably free from
tendency to disease, tuberculosis and
other affections of the respiratory or
gans being unknown among them.
They are lOng-lived, often improving in
milking qualities up to ten years of age.
The general form of the Ayrshire COW
has been described as resembling
hand saw, with the small end forward.
The head is fine and lean; face rather
long and slightly dishing; horns slim
and waXy; neck fine and slim; udder
large and we'll spread out rather than
pendant; teats small, often too small
for convenient milking. The character
istic colors are red and white, though
brown is not unusual. The reds are of
various shades. from light brick color to
deep cherry. and the white is in spots of
various forms and sizes, but never
mingled into a loan. The average
standard weight is about one thousand
pounds.
