This is the contract to which the
village of Ravenna Is party, and the
only contract. Shortly after the exc.
cution of this contract Mr.Stafford said
to me that Mr.. Seymour called upon
him and said the contract was void in
every particular, and that he would
lose every dollar he put into the plant,
and tried to discourage the fulfilment
of 1t, but Mr.. Stafford said to me. at
our next interview, that he would per
form his part of the contract and as
sured him the Council would stand by
its agreement. /. g., permit him to
light the streets for three years or pur
chase the plant at its cost price. Oct.
1st, 1888, Mr. Seymour appeared before
the Council again, but this time with
franchise of the streets, asking the
Council to pass il, in the interest of
the h g l.. d T.. Co, which Council
did. l think shortly afterward Mr.
seymour obtained from Mr.. Stafford
assignment of an alleged duplicate
of the contract entered into bv the
village. After this assignment the gas
company erected the plant now in use

everybody. So we'll pleased were tba

Mclaughlin VIII be Trainer-GeneraI
Notes of Interest.
The action of the American Turf Con-
gres5 at Chicago in expungiDg dashes less
than a mile for three-year-O and up
wards from the programmes of its associate
members, does not seem to be at all wise
one. The objective point, to advance the
character of racing, is all very we'll in its
way, but such a rule is not at all likely
to further attainment OF the desired re-
suit. Some of the most brilliant races of
last year, in this section of the country at
least, were run at less distances thss a
mile by aged horses. And notably on the
new Westchester track. Sporting World
Starter Mclaughlin has fully made up
his mind to become Trainer Mclaughlin on
January l, next. Indeed, he has been
Successful as he has been with the flag. the
ex-jOckey believes his career with p. LOTil-
lard as trainer will be one of honor and
credit both to himself and employer, and
is acting accordingly.

ago.
Sam Bryant will probably be after Mr..
