American 1t is to be hoped that
the Maury County gentlemen who are
negotiating for Direct may succeed in
securing him for that county, The
coming of the great California PAGER
to the State would be of immense
benefit to the breeding interests.
Horse breeding in Middle Tennessee
would receive great impetus from
having the greatest sire of runners in
Sumner and the greatest of harness
horses in Maury.
American: With st. BIaise in
Sumner, the stations of Belle Meade,
Luke Blackburn and the others, IN
Davidson and a good chance OF Direct,
the greatest of harness horses, going
to Mauiy Middle Tennessee will soon
step to the position she ought to
have, as pre-eminently the home OF
the race horse. She is entitled to IL
from soil and climate.

The Kentucky Racing Associa-
ton near Lexington made an assign
ment last Tuesday. Liabilities, $685.
600; assets, grounds and track worth
100000 to 100000, all the ground
available for city lots. The Associa-
ton attempted to sell part or all Of its
! property to the Kentucky Trotting
Horse Association, but the sale was
not made, and the assignment was
decided upon. IL is thought that
| private parties will buy the course
and put it on a firmer basis.
| The running races at West Side
Park, Nashville, will be continued
twelve days longer.
Red Pilot has made great show
ing this season. He has made a rec
ord of 2:29 himself in a race. His
sons, Monogram and Prince Pilot
have both taken records of 2:22 and
2:221a respectively; all made in races.
Last year Bay Pilot lowered his race
record to 2:2l =, and Jefiie Lee OBJ
tanned trOtting record OF 2:3l in
race. This year she has shown q great
many trials in 2:22 and better. This
is a wonderful showing for a horse of
his limited opportunities. He is
bound to become sire of extreme
speed and the breeders OF this and
surrounding counties are to be con-
graduated upon having him here to
make the season of 1892 at the most
reasonable service fee of any stallion
with his breeding, performances and
performances of his sons and daught-
ers in the United States. He has
made himself standard, both as a
PAGER and trOtter, and will be regis
tered in the American Trotting Reg
lister.

trainers at South Side Park, is daa-
