SALE OF A TROTTER.
Hylas Boy Sold by the Hubinger
 Brothers.

Hylas Boy Sold by the Hubinger
 Brothers.
 For several weeks the Hubinger Broth CTS, proprietors of Elm City stock farm, have been negotiating with MT. Tryon of San Francisco for the sale of Hylas Boy, one of the most promising trotters of their stables
 Hylas Boy is bay gelding, six years old, sixteen hands high, and was sired by Hylas, 2:244; dam, Cinderella, by Jersey Boy. Hylas is the sire of Susie S., that won many races last year, and closed the season with a record of 2:154. Hylas Boy was purchased by the Hubingers started in 8 few races, when he soon demonstrated that he possessed un- usual speed. He is now eligible to the 2:30 class, as his record is 2:294, but he has trotted much faster. The Hubinper brothers are authority for the statement that he can trot three heats in 2:17 or bet ter. It is presumed that the owners of the young trotter held him in reserve in order to keep him eligible to start for some large purse, possible the $10,O0O race at Hartford. It is possible that the trotter will appear on the Charter Oak park track this season.
 The famous and successful trainer. John Splan, visited the Hubingers not long ago and as stated made a proposition to cam paign Hylas Boy this season.
 The statement has been made that there has been much speculation regarding the price paid for the trotter. The owners ad- vertised the horse for sale last January when the advertisement stated that the price asked was 5000.
 He was shipped to New York by boat and at Jersey City will be put on one of the live stock palace cars for the Pacific coast.

The Tomils0 n Bridge Draw.

 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In reply to the gentleman's communica- ton in your valuable paper of the 18th re- garding the delay at Tomlinson bridge, I would say that he does not express the sentiment of one-half of the people who cross over the bridge in question, and I know wherein I speak. We have sense enough to know there is more or less de- lay at all drawbridges and expect it, but it is the unnecessary delay we are talking about; and I will explain to the gentleman wherein the delay comes in, and think he will agree with me- When the engineer opens the draw he should turn it clear around instead of waiting to turn it back ward; then none would have cause for complaint. c. E. WOODWARD. MORE ABOUT ToMLINSoN BRIDGE. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER: In your edition of this morning, March IF, man, giving his name as c. E. Wood ward, complains about unnecessary delay at this bridge. In reply, I would say to him, make your complaint, if you have any, to the board of public works and seleetmen, and I defy you to produce another man, woman or child in this city or town to make the same statement. All that troubles MT. Woodward is he cannot use this structure as trotting course. And promise him the next time have city court.
 Now, if we have so many Ewes" you have chance to use them.
 Respectfully yours,
 JOHN B. POWERS,
