Angelique is probably the fastest two
year-old filly in the country, but it is
doubtful whether Mr.. Rose will take her
east. Angelique is by Darebin, and,
while she is phenomenally fast, she is
such crazy actor that it is doubtful
whether any trainer will ever be able to
get her to the post. If they should sue
ceed, it is three to one that she would
start off the reverse way. Arnica, by
gelique., She is.level-headed, and while
not as fast as the Darebin Ally, will un-
doubtedly win double the money in the
coming campaign. Arnica ran a half
the other day in 30 seconds. with 12O
pounds up. Mr.. Rose fancies Jo-
han hsanes, "a great great big s!trappding g
high strung and OF extremely nervous
disposition. This will in all probability
initiate against his success on the east
grand looking colts. Nomad is q SYM
metrical son Of wild Idle, and Gondolier
ia shapely son of Flood. Ii the latter's
legs do not give him any trouble he will
be dangerous customer.
The trainers and stable boys at the
track got big surprise on Saturday.
".Lopeared" Mulatto reeled off half a
mile in the very fast time Of 4S3z sec
onds. A week ago Mulatto was whipped

fered to sell him for $500 to Dan Bridges.
It will take a good many more hundred
dollars to purchase the youngster to-
day.
Mulatto is by Argyle, and it will be no
breach of stable confidence 10 state that
the Argyles are proving to be the supe-
ier than the Argyle, at three-eighths, but
after that distance the Argyles have de-
cidedly the best of it.
badly the only exception. This filly is
fast and is as game as a pebble. Billy
Gardner has gem in her for his west
ern string.
Fairy was galloped on Saturday. She
was sent mile in :481s and pulled up
very lame. She was much better yester-
day under DR.. Appleby's treatment. It
is to be hoped that the great daughter
of Argyle will stand up to her work.
She is one OF the speediest fillies that
ever looked through bride; it will be
a calamity for the California turf if Fairy
should break down. Odetto and Rico,
the suburban candidates, were both
worked mile on Saturday in AZ. The
game Peru is looking in fine fettle.
A Chicago paper says: "That Wash
ington Park track is very fast, the fol-
lowing performances trotted and run
over that course in 1890 will bear wit
ness: Racine ran mile race in :391a,
the fastest on record; Palo Alto trotted
in 2:l3, the fastest mile ever trotted in
a race; and Sunol trotted in 2:1O%, the
fastest mile trotted in 1890, thus giving
that track the records for that year.
With these facts in view, the August
meeting august 18th to 22d) of the
Northwestern association of trotting and
pacing horse breeders must prove OF un-
usual interest to American horsemen."
Undoubtedly good record for the Chi
cago track. 1t might be incidentally re-
marked, however, that the three record
breakers all came from California, and
were foaled and bred in this state.
Quite a record for California horses,
rather than the Washington Park track,
to my thinking.
Charley Boots came up from Southern
California last Saturday, and stopped a
couple OF days at Santa Anita to get two
OF Mr.. Baldwin's mares to be mated with
imp. Brutus. Mr.. Boots is very much
taken with the weanlings by the En-
peror Of Norfolk. They all show good
muscular power, and most of them dis
play great deal of quality. We are
glad to hear Of this, for the emperor was
fifty named. His fangy form and neatly
balanced figure always challenge the
admiration of those who know a good
horse from worthless one. Breeder

Joe McAuliffe, the Mission Boy, who
was recently annihilated by Frank
Slavin, was interviewed by New York
Sun reporter on the day he returned to
America. After telling the newspaper
man about the loyal treatment he re-
ceived, Barney Farley's idol said: II
was whipped by Slavin fair and square.
l was in as good condition as ever l was
in my life, and got knocked out. That
is the story of my battle for the heavy

nutshell. My defeat has not killed my
spirit. l am as anxious to fight today

months ago. want to have chance

l would like to have chance at Cor

Billy Madden. resplendent in glossy
new tile, and q top coat that would
make even Berry Wall turn green with
envy, when asked about his trip. said
II agree most cordially with what Nc
Auliffe says regarding our reception in
England. Why, I thought we were in
