1888. lie ia a beautiful black, 10 hands high
and weighs about ! 0N0 pounds. lie has never
been trained but elbows three minute gait In
harness, He Is not In high flesh, and does not
require it to conceal faults. lie has excellent
points for service and speedy, a vast deal Of
substance in bone, muscle and sinew, with an
adoption OF the parts that are rare in a horse
of his inches; his frame Is closely knit, his
head is full of character and sense, and il il
set On right; his neck and shoulders are suited
To his ~build-deep through the heart and capa-
ipus M phIrei, a. strohg coupling, mhgnlilcient
quarters, hiond, flag legs and healthy, blue
tinted feet. Such Ia Waldo c.; not a fancy
cob-huilt horse, but one in whom substance
and quality of the enduring kind are blended
Many n stallion would call forth the enconium,
pretty as II picture as Almont Pilot and
Almont do, sooner than Waldo G, but he is well
made all over and on being started up, cap
lures all good Judges of what a trotting sire
should be. His cheerful, gallant bearing, trot-
ting with head and tail aloft, and a springy,
open, elastic stride, more knee and hook action
than usually characteriZes the Almonts; he
bears the bell, in my estimation, for the power
of being the lineal successor of Wilkomont in
pcrpctiiating his great promise OF extreme
speed. Examine the following partial pcdi-

CHARLEY MITCHELL WHIPPED.
Slavin Mops the Floor with the Bosster
In . Friendly Way.


LONDON, Feb. 26.-The true story Of the
facts, which led up to the arrest of Frank
2. Slavin and Charles Mitchell, forms q
curious pugilistic episode. The summons
was secured by the proprietor Of the Ar
cadia club, to which house, with party of
their friends, they adjourned after they
had been to the theater Monday evening.
The two pugilists have for some time past
been great friends, in spite of the fact that
Mitchell had been very free in declaring
that he could best S1avin. Mitchell re.
peated his dare at the club house. and in
time Slavin Joined in the discussion. which
became very heated.
Slavin at first treated the matter in a
locular spirit, but in the end he lost his
temper and pushed Mitchell away with
some degree of force. This seemed to
arouse the blood Of Mitchell, who made
rush at Slavin, but failed to hit him.
Siavln replied with hard one on his as
sailant,s neck. which tioored the English
man. Mitchell rose and reached fn. q bot
tie to strike Slavin, but again the latter
was too quick, and the second time Sulli-
general melee then ensued. Mitchell u,inc
chairs and smashing the tables in his eli,
forts to do up Slavin, who practically
mopped the floor with him, and finally
threw him out of the front door, where he
was hustled into . cab by his friends and
driven home.
Mitchell is now confined to his bed on
account Of his injuries. Slavin is unhurt.
The action of the club is brought to re-
cover damages for injuries sustained by
the furniture

1t is not generally known that Jim Hall,
the Australian pugilist who is in America
trying to- get fight with Joe Fitzsim-

from Sidney jailed on a charge of stealing

is reported, occurred on the day he was to
leave for America, but he was gotten out
of Jail by his friends, who hushed and
fixed" the matter satisfactorily
Under the heading of ..Jim Hall did not
go TO America, and why he did not" the
Melbourne Sportsman, of Wednesday,
December 81, says:
Considerable surprise was experienced last
Wednesday night when it was known in Mel

this nothing definite was known till Monday
