yet Of the speed and nature Of the gait that
Is peculiar to these horses. II seemed iinpos-
sible to them that a horse could make mile
In two minutes and ten seconds, as had been
told. Count OrlofP was the first one who
placed Importance upon great speed in trot-
ters, and for this purpose crossed full blooded
Arabian stations with mares from Holland.
From this cross he gained the sire OF the Rus
sian horses, known by the name Of Orloff
trotters.
In America the raising OF trotters Is traced
back to the full blooded stallion Messenger,
introduced from England. II Is an acknowl-
edged fact that the principle adopted In
America to cross only horses that have de-
veloped great speed In trotting has contrib
uted mostly to the present stage Of develop
ment OF the American trotter. Germany,
too, has now for some years paid attention
to trotting races There are two raceeourses
In Berlin - Berlin Weissensee and Berlin
Westend. The best trotter In Europe today
is Polly, big brown mare. She was raised
In America and trotted this year under tho
name Of Utopias About four years ago she
was taken to Europe from America, and
there commenced her career al trotter.
Her achievements in France and Russia have
shown that she Is the best trotter In Europe.
The fortunate possessor Of the mare Is the
well known Berlin sportsman Enrich, the
first manager Of the new Berlin Westend
racecourse. Perhaps the principal reason
why In Germany so much attention Ii now
paid to raising fast trotters IL that the gov
ernment recognizes the value which crossing
and careful breeding OF acknowledged COOL
trotters will have upon the native breed OF
horses. And good horses are very desirable
In military country like Germany.

The Leonard Jerome Of today II the same
true hearted gentleman and the same up
right sportsman Of twenty Ave years ago,
but he b not the same millionaire. The
story Of his financial shipwrcck can be
told In two words-Pacifio Mail. Jerome
Park today is only jerome Park In name,
for the foot Of the stranger is upon Il.
Il 10 this condition Of Affairs which
has made Leonard w. Jerome's yearly
salary OF $4,000 as president Of the Coney
Island Jockey club an item In his finan-
cial calculations which Il not TO be de-
spised. That position he has occupied
for many years past. Recently he. With
many others, had good reason to believe
that the famous jerome track will be
taken by the city Of New York ~ the
site for q new water reservoir. The then
existing commissioners favored the con-
demnation Of the property.
To John A. Morris, who has made q
fortune Of many millions by the manipu-
lation of the Louisiana lottery scheme,
Leonard Jerome expressed his belief that
the jerome track would be seized. and
that new track In that vicinity would
be immensely profitable. Morris was
quick to act upon the suggestion, and
Mr.. jerome was made president Of the
new racing association. which was
named the New York Jockey club.
Work was begun at once, and as the re-
suit Of an expenditure of between 81 ,30O,-
900 and 81 ,4OO, 600 there was constructed
what good authorities claim to be the
finest racing track In the world.
But Mr.. John Hunter, enjoying year
ly salary Of $4,000 as the president Of
the jerome Park association, did not
look kindly upon the destruction Of the
enterprise OF which he is the well paid
head. Mayor Grant appointed new COM
missioners with different views concern
ing the reservoir site, and, % result,
when the new track was opened, Jerome
Park still fingered as rival and an OBJ
stacle to its financial prosperity. John
A. Morris is human, and consequently
John A. Morris is vexed. Rumor has Il
that he foolishly lays at Mr.. Jerome's
ment, and rumor stronger still says that,
In return for more than o year of the
most arduous labor given up to the crea-
tion OF the new track. work made more
onerous by the accumulated years Of Mr..
jerome, the father Of the American turf
has received, to use the exact language
of one Of the best known racing Judges
in this country, "Not one dollar and
half"
Fact, however truthful rumor may be,
has it that Mr.. jerome was kindly in
formed recently by the directors Of the
Coney Island Jockey club that he must
decide between it and its Westchester
rival. His conclusion was prompt. He
instantly resigned the presidency Of the
new race track, and was again elected to
watch over the destinies of the Coney
Island association.
And this is tho tale which hangs upon
this action. LOUIS N. MEGAIoEE

pose that the germs Of an inventive
genius were planted in America by Co
lumbus 400 years ago, to gather strength
unobserved and flower like q four cen.

Of the devices are carried out, they will
be big enough and remarkable enough TO
attract the attention of the inhabitants
Of such neighboring planets as have tel.

Not long ago plan was broached for
building tower with arched additions
starting far from its base and joining
near its top. This device resembles
fountain pouring water from o center in
every direction. It was large enough
and would cost enough to satisfy the
cravings Of the most ardent yearner after
the immense, but new plans have come
on which lay this gigantic structure In
the shade, as 1t surpasses the Eiffel.
"Originality is the first difficulty to
overcome. Towers and arches OF all
shapes, sizes and heights have been built
from time immemorial, therefore these
should only be used as necessary al.

word world has suggested to me the

Mr.. Martin then proceeds to show that
he has solved the problem of originality.
He proposes magnificent and gigantic
sphere representing the world, supported
by two towers built in the form of a let.
ter A, the initial letter for America.
Since the fair is to celebrate the discov.
cry Of the country by Columbus and not
Amerigo Vespucci, this does not seem to
come in appropriately. Tho towers
however, are to be connected by O belt
arch, on the keystone of which is a
statue Of Columbus waving tho Ameri.
can flag over the world.
The designer has surely manifested a
consummate genius for the marvellous,
but there is slight inculgruity which
somewhat mars the plan. The only flag
Columbus waved was that OF CASTLE.
and the star spangled banner was not
waved by any one till nearly 800 years
later. Fancy John Bull coming to the
fair and seeing the Stars and Stripes
waving over tho world. He would
probably pick up his traps and be of in
huff. That flag may some day wave
over the world, but not just yet.

Much is said In France just now of the
incorporating attitude OF the quirinal
(meaning the Italian court against the
papacy. and the extremists, Renan being
their chief spokesman, predict speedy
removal Of the pope from Rome; but as
that class Of men have so predicted at
intervals for some 400 years, it need ex-
cite no present concern. II should not
be forgotten that the pope Is bishop OF
Rome, as well az head OF the church.
Pursuant to the democratic principle
above set forth, the election OF pope as
q purely business proceeding Is conduct
ed with as scrupulous regard for fair
ness as that OF any official In the world.
