promising youngster, Bismarck, COM
ing 3, by Colonna, Jr. When Frank
turns him loose on the stretches he is
a picture, as bold and smooth going
a horse as was ever hitched to sulky.

Hambletonian Chief, and Maud H.,

HAoK.-Take hack to the races.
Mr.. Boynton has brought hack
which he will run to and from the
Driving Park. 1t fills long felt
want. Scores of people visit the
race track each evening to see the
horses, and many pretty sharp brush
they witness.
Foals Reported.
J. E. Danielson's road mare last
week foaled a horse colt by Water
town, the stallion recently sold and
shipped to Germany.
Rev. Chas. Hollman's Arab mare
recently foaled mare colt, by Wat
ertown..
Remember in driving the reverse
way of the track, you must keep to
the outside, giving the horse coming
the proper way of the track the pole,
or in other words the right of way.
The other evening over twenty horses
going as youA please and the5
were several narrow escapes from
collisions.
Stout Bros. sold a short time age
to John Owens, of Pokersbury, Iowa,
a son of Nutwood, 2:18aa, out of Alpha.
2:23a, for So 800. The colt is hand
some chestnut but only weeks old
This beats the record on prices fol
this age. Harpoon 10631, owned by
VIM. Mccullough, is grandson on the
sire's side, of Nutwood. His breeding
on the dam side is also in the pur.
pie. Many of our towns people don't
appreciate what a royalty bred fellow
he is.
| Our track is not controlled by sports
but by gentlemen. Deacons of the
church are numbered among the sue
cessful ''whips," and we have the
honor of claiming for Morris an Anna.
zon of the sulky, Miss Maggie Igo
Many evenings she drives to speed
| ing cart her brothers Chief colt, and
when she straightens him out, she
wins every brush. 1t is not through
gallantry of the gentlemanly drivers
either; it is because she handles the
reins like veteran and could drive to
a finish.

charge of the Morris Driving Park
this season, arrived with his family
Tuesday last, and they are now domi-
