No ono denies that many able and expert

usefulness and their distinction after their

Not a Very Good Season.

One Of Americas most characteristic in
situations. the Grand Circuit, begins its last
performances for 1891 to-day at Hartford. So
far the developments Of the year have been
disappointing. A good deal Of good trotting
has failed either to show single new animal
carrying the promise OF beating the present
record or such an increase in tho leading
rank Of the free-for-all class as to indicate
that from the general wave OF progress We
may soon expect the advent Of some new star
to outshine everything that has gone before.
A mile In 2:l2A has given Nancy Hanks
alone any special distinction, yet she
is full four seconds away from beat
ing Maud s. Nothing need be said
Of achievements at Independence. since
whatever is done on kite-shaped track
Is practically Incompatible with trotting on
the oval courses, and 80 long as tho latter
remain the standard the time for kite
shaped miles must be unimportant.
We may hardly look to Hartford to give q
new character to this summers trotting so
unless fortune goes the way OF Sunol and
she beats the record. the season OF 1891 will
In all probability pass without a sensation.

John Gier, who lives near the Ben.

charged with stealing iron from the fur
mace. During the past few years thou
sands OF dollars worth Of iron has been
stolen from the furnace, but the com.
pany was, until recently, unable to tell
who was stealing 1t. The company had
high board fence put up around the
furnace, since which time very little
stuff has been stolen. Just after the
flood Masshal Westwood and Officer
Murphy were fishing with a long hook
in the cellar OF Gier, the man arrested,
and found piece Of shafting which had
been stolen from the furnace. Gier and
his brother.in-law appeared and seeing
the officers, had business elsewhere.
Henry Myers, Of the blast furnace Office,
was notified OF the finding Of the shaft
ing and be Immediately swore' out q
warrant for Gier. Yesterday afternoon
the police learned that he was at home,
and went and arrested him.
