Louis Napoleon.

Dewey Il Stewards catalogue for 1889 has
been distributed to the public. 1t is a
pamphlet of 33 pages filled with reading
matter of interest to every horse breeder
From an article on Louis Napoleon we
| quote:
''We have already seen that the average
speed of Volunteers own get is 2::2325, and
of four generations of Volunteers 2:2415.
This high standard is more than upheld
by Napoleon, the average time of his trot-
ting progeny is 2:224, being greater than
that of any other stallion having six OF
more in the 2:30 list. He is the sire of the
only Mich. trotting bred stallion to sell fol
$25, 900, and the only one to stand at $500
service fee. He is the sire of. the fastest
Mich. bred gelding and stallion. Reno's
Baby, by Reno Defiance, yearlng record,
1:19 for the half mile, is the fastest from q
Mich bred stallion. He is the only Mich.
grand sire that has two or more 2:3O horses
through both sons and daughters. He is the
only stallion in Mich. with four sons and
daughters with records better than 1928, or
a grand son with record below 2:1S. The
progeny of this grand horse is very rapidly
coming into popular favor and will do so
more and more in the very near future.
1t cannot have escaped thoughtful students
of the science of breeding that il very rarely
happens that both sons and daughters of a
stallion are producers of extreme speed, this
power seemingly being limited to either
the male or female line.
1t is the rare good fortune of Napoleons
daughters as well as sons to inherit and
transmit the power of speed reproduction so
marvelously developed in the Volunteer
branch of the Hambletonian family.
The financial and 'sickening disappoint-
ment that too often follow the purchase of a
brood stallion or mare on the discovery,
after unrecallable years of waiting have de-
veloped the fact that speed stopped
short with a preceding generation, will not
he the fate of the owners of well bred sons
and daughters of Napoleon. Up to 1888
legitimate argument based OH Napoleon's
history and lineage said it must be so and
now that argument is proven true by the
turf record of j. I. RS battle with and
victory over half score of the representa-
tives of other royal families, by the superb
performance of the three year old Harry
Noble and his record of 2:25, by the year
ling mark of Reno Deliance's Baby 1:19.
representing the male line, as Woodmont and
Chimes Il. before that stood as witnesses to
speed transmission through the female line. >

At the Sign Of the Blind Cupid.

When blushing cheeks and downcast eyes
Set all the heart afiame,
When love within adimple lies
And constaucy's name,
Since every lass is passing fair,
Cupid must fly and see;
And, lightly fitting here and there,
A winged boy is he.
When creeping years steal on pace
And youth and vigor go,
When time with wrinkles marks the face
And strews the hair with snow,
All, then no winged boy is he;
But strong limbed and complete,
With blinded eyes that need not see,
Since memory guides his feet.
Walter Ldr1,ed, in Mdy Century.

very edge of Big Clam lake the road is
graded an air line for few miles through
high and low ground until the new station
of Boon is reached, Near here is one of the
prettest curves Oh any part of the entire
road. Boon is being rapidly settled. More
people are there now than there are roofs to
cover With the high range Of hills on
either side beyond this place it is easy to
see why an air line here was impracticable.
Beyond Harietta, another vigorous, rapidly
growing timber town, the road enters a for
est of hardwood, extending for more than
nine miles square of solid beech and maple
one of the finest pieces of hardwood tim
Der in the state. The track is laid about
three miles west of Harietta, and from there
to the Manistee river force of over 600
men with teams are at work at different
points. The road is well graded, passes
through some fine farming land and has
every sign of creating new life and enter
