than the ST.. 500 fellow of the same name
bought by the Dryers once upon time,
Mr.. Hawkins may not find it difficult to
understand why saline tears should
course down the cheeke of a certain sem
atorial Kentuckian.
Apparently there is something more
than mere qualification of sport-lOying
propensities in racing the world over.
For mark what mediator the turf may
yet become. See the promise of such
an end it has already given us. Here is
Sgr. Crispi, the great, the eloquent, or
his representative, pleasantly turning
over 10000 gold guineas to an English
peer, who in turn presents Crispis
royal master, Humbert, with the Eng
lish Derby winner, Melton. What does
Lord Salisbury care for the Italian navy
now, and who can say that the transfer
of Melton may not mean few dozen
more orders and titles for the young
grandson of Victoria? At least one
thing is certain, that Italy cast an
anchor very much to windward in buy
ing Melton. When Austria or some
other of the thunderOus powers on the
continent comes down with her legionS
into Italy the dealers in peanuts and
bananas will find good old Melton stock
peculiarly adapted to distancing their
field across the border.

1t is now probable that we are stand

sell. Ambulance and Sallie McClelland
and Rinfax and Homer on the other.
Just how the settlement is to be
achieved it is hard to say, but that next
week will shed some light upon the
problem seems reasonably sure. We in
the East are quite prepared for Racine,
it only our warriors will consent to
enter the lists with the recOrd-breaker,
and as to Rinfax and Homer, well, with
one or two exceptions our two-year-olds
this season have been second-class lot
at best.
The Darebin-Tulare colt that was
sold at the Haggin sale in New York
city has arrived in England, where he is
literally entered in two and three-year-
old events, including the Derby. 1t
was thought best to take him over there
as yearling so that he may become
acclimated. He is owned by Hamilton
Smith, who. by the way, sends over
word that the fabulous sums said to
have been offered for Donovan and
other English horses exist only in the
imagination of some newspaper writer's
who are endeav0ring to boom the market
Trainer Matt Allen has been particu-
Iarly unfortunate with Senator Hearst's
horses. Time and again have they
worked fast enough to break watch,
only to be teaten away off in their
races. This thing continued so long
that Allen finally became disguised and
resigned from Senator Hearst'S employ.
Albert Cooper, the well-known colored
trainer, has taken charge of the sena-
tors horses, and it Is possible he may
be able to cause the Eastern division of
the stable to make as good a showing as
the senator's Western division did at
the Washington Park meeting.
ElectiOneer has fifty-two performers

from California say that he is gaining
flesh nicely. although he has been very
though the old fellow would never be
taken out of the stable alive, but he
seems to be all right again. He has suf-
fered more or less from sciatica, but
the veterinary thinks that now he will
be entirely relieved of that, and that
the prospects are bright for him to
stand in the stud few years longer.

Mr., Allen. of st. Paul, Minn., who re-
Gently paid $4,000 for the little black
pacing mare Allen Maid, 2:161s, pro-
poses to drive her to pole hereafter. If
he has mate that can go up to the
Maids clip he should be able to keep
in the front rank of the road brigade.

There are now 700 horses at
Palo Alto, Senator Stanford's Cali
fornia breeding farm, and they con-
sumo on an average $4,000 pounds of
barley, and 10000 pounds of oats a
month.
1t has now come to be an open ques-
ton which have been broken most this
year, the records or the public. Prophecy
gives the public the benefit of the doubt.
