TENNY, THE GREAT RACER, is FOUND TO
BE DISABLED.
She Will Never More Shine on the Turf-Na-
turs of the Inluries-Freshest Gossip
in Pugilisiic and Base Ball Circles.
General Sporting News.

New uYoRK, April 1s.-The long
streak of i'll luck which for the greater
part of last season marred the career oil
Tenny has TO all appearance just
reached its ultimatum The story told
yesterday of Tenny's lameness and
breakdown in training seems to be I'M
happily only too true. Mr. PulSifer was
apparently broken up with grief yester-
day morning as he watched the idol OF
his heart and the pride Of his life limp
along the toboggan slide at Westchester
in the rear of "Snip" Donovan's string
of racers. With tears in his eyes, ne
said, pointing to the great little an y:
There's $4,000 worth of stakes gone
in minute. / needn't have backed him
for a cent, and yet l should have been
about that much richer at the end OF
the year"
No one who examined Tenny yester-
day morning and saw the coat shining
iue as FURNISHED brass, the muscle
standing out in thick cords on the su-
perb neck and shoulders and chest, the
legs clean and hard, and the wicked eye
rolling and flashing, could help eX-
claiming, with Tenny'S owner, "the pity
OF it," In point of general condition
Tenny just now is at his best. But fol
lameneSS, which has disabled him, he
could race this week. In fact, Pulsifer
intended to start him at Guttenburg,
believing that a race or two on the hill
would materially benefit him in hi:
work for the Brooklyn handicap.
The trouble is supposed to be with
the navicular bone. The secret OF
Tenny's breakdown. was well kept-sC
well, indeed, that it was not until Mr.
PulSifer was seen TO take 81, 900 TO SlOC
about Firenzi for the Suburban that any
suspicion Of the truth leaked out.
IL was said yesterday that since
Thursday Tenny had been confined t
walking and trotting exercises. Wher
he first walks out on the track the lame
ness is not preceptible. When he be
comes warm with exercise, however, the
weakness in his foot begins TO be fell
and he puts his foot to the ground will
the painful tenderness Of a equity ole
gentleman.
Il doubt whether we will ever be abl'
to send him to the post again" said Mr.
Pulsifer. Donovan thinks he ha'
broken down for all time, and Donovan
is about right. People have latel!

Now that Tenny is gone I suppose
