DICK SMITH
Surprises his Wsrmest Friends

Dick Smith won the 2:3O trot in

the first heat. The time was
2:22 3-4, 2::21 3-4, 2:22 3-4, 2::23 1-2,
and the St. Louis Republic, speak
ing of the race, says: "Mr. W.

Smith and he handled him In capi-
tai fashion," Dick Smith is own
ed by T. s. & j. Harrison, of Aux.
vase, who have been offered big
price for him, but don't want to
sell. Dick is grand gefding and
if he keeps on is liable to break
the trotting record. When he was
entered for his first race, In this
city last August, he was a greer
horse without mark against him
and for him to go out and trot il
:21 his first season is somethin,
remarkable, and is better thar
even shis most ardent admirers o,
driver expected. A number o

markable speed-Rysdyk, Dicl

Two Relics.

Mr.. II. FRANKIE has a curious an.
tiquity in the shape of a very old
pipe. It has been in his family
for centuries. The earliest recorded
date of its existence is 1918, the
beginning of the thirty years war
IN Europe. The fifth generation,
back the pipe was the property OF
Herbert Auguste FRANKIE, whose
name may be found in the encyclo-
pedia as a great phiiantropist
The pipe was carried to Russia by
FRANKIE when Napoleon made his
noted invasion. The pipe is made
fro1n some very hard wood, the
kind being unknown, and is silver
m united and metal lined. having 3
deer horn stem put on during this
century.
Another pipe that we ran across
to-day has an eventful history.
The pipe is of meerschaum and the
bowl weighs nearly half a pound.
1t was purchased in Europe about
the beginning of this century by
the father of General Gordon, oil
military renown, and given by
General Gordon to a nephew, who
brought it to this country in 1865.
This nephew pawned it to a man
named Robinson, who was a rall-
road contractor and who presented
it to Mr.. j. D. Brock, who now
owns it. Both these curiosities can
be seen at J. A. Snyder's.

ROBERT RYsDYK.
| Trots Three Heats in st. Louis IN
| Less Than 2:2O.

The time made in the SIC, 900
race in St. Louis was 2:f83.4,
t2:17 1-2, 2:18, 2:2o and 2:2l. Harry
Noble won the first two heats and
Reference won the last three and
the race. Robert Rysdyk was the
only Missouri horse which dared
tackle this, the biggest race of the
season anywhere. Rysdyk, while
he was fifth in the race, trotted
three heats of the race in less than
20 and his owner. G. F. Clark, has
good reason to be proud of him
In the last heat he came in fourth
and would have likely been first, as
he was In the best of shape, but
threw a front shoe as he came
down the stretch and could not be
pushed TO the front, az his driver
expected. Norval, who sold as a
favorite, had all he could do to
keep Rysdyk from taking fourth
place in the race away from him.
Rysdyk goes to Kentucky, where
he will start in the big stallion
trot. and will likely win. Acolyte,
who is said to be the fastest entry,
finished behind Rysdyk in the big
trot in st. Louis yesterday in every
heat. Acolyte was sold not long
since for $4,000 in cash. While
| Rysdyk did not get any money ou,
hof the $4,000 race, he showed
what he could do in the hottest
Mind of company. Rysdyk is the
fastest stallion owned in the State
ef'Missouri.
