Safe on Brazilian Soil.

The two American-bred trotters.
Spofford and Gov. Hill. were safely
landed in Buenos Ayres after voyage
of forty seven days. The severest shak-
ing up occurred off Newport News. The
gale was strong and the sea ran high.
The horses were protected by padded
stalls. In pleasant weather they were
walked on deck. They also had large
open box, with plenty Of straw to prevent
slipping, into which they were turned,
one at time, when the ocean was calm.
The shoes were badly worn ON the voy-
age. The friction was as great as if the
trotters had been on land. The two
horses walked ashore in their new and
far-distant home as frisky and nimble as
colts. We hope that both will continue
to distinguish themselves. They will
be driven on the road and compete in
races. Three days before Spofford and
Governor Hill were landed the bay

ing Pets in the Household.
Pail Mall Gazette.
1 have seen and handled pair of
tame rats belonging to some young
friends, and prettier, more playful, and
more intelligent pets could not be mag
ined. They were accustomed to run
about on the table at meal times. They
never stole food; but, when any thing
was offered them, they sat up OH their
hind legs, held the morsel between
their forepawS and ate 1t daintily.
They were fond of game which |
saw them play. The rats were put into
the boys cap, which was hung on the
iiat-stand in the hall. The boy and his
sister then went to the top of the house
and whistled. At the sound of the
whistle the rats jumped out of the cap,
scrambled to the floor and then ran up
the stairs and perehed On their owners
shoulders.
The general idea of the rat is that it
is an ill-savored animal, dirty in its
person and revolving in its diet, where
as it is delicately clean in person and
equally dainty in Its food. 1t is ever
washing itself, and never eats without
washing afterward.

ON THE TRACK.
The Flyers at the Minnehaha
Driving Park.

Driving Park.
Lovers of good horseflesh can see
sights that are good for sore eyes any
day in the week at the grounds of the
Minnehaha Driving Park association.
Over 100 horses. some of them very fast
ones, are in the stables there already, and
more arriving every day. There are
a great many animals there that have
done mile in $3.50, and better, and a
few that have marks of less than 20.
Among the latter are McKusick's four
year-old mare, Mittie Lii, 2:1S, and
Louis S, 2:164; both horses are in
Hinckley's stable.
Many of the horses now quartered at
the track are green colts, but some
of them are dong excellent
work now, and several have
done trial heats in good time.
From to 10 any morning the trainers
are busy working the flyers on quarter
and half-mile heats, and not few OF
them give promise of fast trotting. The
track is in constant use, and is in fine
condition, being now considered by
horsemen one of the best trOtting tracks
in the country. The half-mile track in
side the circle is somewhat softer than
the other, and in fine condition for rum
ming horses, of which. however, there
are very few now at the park.
Charlie Miles has a string of purse
winners in his stable, and will send six
or seven out of the twenty-five under
his care campaigning this season. The
five-year-old mare Lillian, with four
year-old record of 2:17119, is his special
pride, She is owned by William Blow
ers, Of Waterloo, To-, and is already
doing some very pretty work, although
she hasn't been put to any fast business
as yet this season. She goes East in Au-
gust.
Arcadian, the big black stallion, six
years old, is getting in excellent trim
for hard fast work, and will be taken to
Chicago soon. His record is 1883.
Birdie L. a greenpacing mare, is also
under Mr.. Miles training, and is con-
sidered very promising animal;
j. G. OSwald's Nellie s and Molly q
in excellent shape for the opening of
the season. Nellie's mark is 2:2219.
Mr.. Nelson thinks Dixey V, now in his
stable, will surprise everybody this
year. Dixey's record is 2:271. Harry
Balch's AlceOla, 2:2S4, Sunos & Mot
iey's Cricket, 2:24115s, and Blockade, a
promising two-year-old belonging to
the De Graft estate, are also in this
stable.
Johnnie Woods, 2:sl1a, is at the Gan
ion stable with Lucy K, Kellar V, TODD
L, haywood and the little PAGER, Billy
Blue Bell.
George Spears has charge of the big
Climb stable and has a string of twelve
trOtters. Star, seven years old, with a
record of 2:29, is one of the best in the
stable, and r. F. Jones' Big Ike is
shown to all visitors.
One of tile best in 81. W. Brownies
stable is st. Leger. The other stables
are those of Kelly, Matthews, Sargent,
Laird and Clark, and contain for the
most part horses that trot in 2:40 to 2: 80,
and green trOtters that will be put in
shape to make records this summer. =
A meeting OF the stockholders of the
association will be held on Tuesday
evening to elect officers and arrange a
progr anime for the regular weekly
matinees that will commence soon, and
be held all through the season.

in first recording the data relating to

counting or tallying these data, either
separately or in combination, by means
of mechanical counters, operated by
electromagnetic, the circuits through

CASES FAST STRING.
Ed Bither Will Attend to Their
Training in Person. :

j. I. Case, of the Hickory Grove
stock farm, Racine. Wis.,, writes:
Browns book has been full for nearly
two months, and have been obliged to
turn away quite number of good
mares. The fact that all of his foals,
-four in number foaled in 1883, show
such promise of high rate of speed dit
an early date, are such good lockers and
so pure-gaited, together with the fact
that all who know him well believe
that he will materially lower his record
the coming season, filled his book al
been compelled to turn away many
good mares. Under the circum-
stances l am forced to raise his
fee to $500 for 1890, and it may be
possible when the season arrives that
we may raise it even higher. But par
ties looking to him before the 1890 an
nouncement will be allowed to breed at
the price advertised. His book is now
open for 1890 at $500. look for Brown
to prove the coming season that he is
the equal of any five-year-old stallion
ever before the public in contested
races, and would not I've surprised to
see him Gearing accidentS) beat the rec
ord OF 2:13a at that age. l state with
confidence, and make all due allowance
for early spring enthusiasm. that two of
his four-yearlings will surely enter the
2:3O list as three-year-oids, and expect
one to get in that list next season as a
two-year-old. The stock at Hickory
Grove have all wintered nicely, and we
are getting them in shape to COM
mence spring operations. We have
just finished as good a mile track as
can be found anywhere, and Bither will
remain at home and attend to all the
training in person the greater part of
the season. The string will consist of
Jay-Eye-See, 2:10; Brown, 2:1ss4; Vic
toria Wilkes, four years old, record at
two years, 2:41&; two very promising
two-year-olds by PhaIlas Chief; a very
promising three-year-oid by Tyrant;
Harold Wilkes. who is expected to
beat 2:30 the coming season; three Ewo-

by Robert McGregor. 2:171a, and five
two-year-old Phallas stallion colts. He
will also handle, to some extent, few

this season at Hickory Grove.
There is some talk Of forming a trot-

The remarkable instance of Anton Merct,

ounce Of confederate lead on his brain for
twenty years before it caused his death, the

eyes, 10 such a way as to split the bone,
which. clJsIng up again, left only Slig II
