Maud's first notable performance was on
July %, 1880, at Chicago, when she beat
Trinket out IN 2:13L, which stood for many
years as the race record for mile. On Au-
gust II, 1881, she trotted at Rochester in
2:10L. In 1884 Jay -Eye-See threatened the
mares record, and Mr.. Vanderbilt again
put her in training, fortunately, as it turned
out, for on July 81 Jay-Eye-See trotted q
mile in 2:1O, quarter of, second better
than Maud SIS record. About August 1,
Maud S. turned the Cleveland track in
2:O9%. On August 10 Mr.. William Turn
bull came to me at my Office, directly from
Saratoga, and said that Mr.. Vanderbilt was
offered $1,000 900 by syndicate headed by
Captain Stone, for Maud s., but would
rather sell her to you at your own price,
because if she is sold to the syndicate, peo-
pie will say that Mr.. Vanderbilt still owns
her.
"Her driver said that no veterinary
could cure the laneness in her off hind foot,
if she got fast work, but I treated her foot,
SO that for two years she was trained, and
each year lowered her record. After her
feet had been leveled Burr told me that
Maud s had gone around the turn for the
first time without the tendency to hitch.
When she lowered her record to 2:08A at
Cleveland on July 80. 1885, she trotted the
quarter in 32X seconds; the half mile in
1:0411, and the three-quarter mile in 1854
making the middle half mile in. 1:02sz.
This is the fastest half mile ever covered,
with the exception of SunoPs half at De-
troit, in 1:0211, and Marvin thinks that

Bidwell has suggested sulky to me that

steel. The thills are to be lighter than the
present wooden ones, and will possess far
greater strength. The wheels of the cart
will have ball bearings, pneumatic tires and
all the improvements found In the most per-
feet bicycle. The seat is to be adjustable
like that in the single scull, sliding back
ward and forward as desired, and is con-
trolled by lever which passes up between
the drivers and is operated by his knee.
The object of this is obvious; when the ami
NAL needs steadying the weight may be ap-
piled, but when he is going iull and free,
reaching out for record, the driver may so
balance his weight that the horsewill feel
almost as free as if he was hauling no
weight at all. You know that horse when
he has load behind him reaches forward in
order to pull it along. This gets the horse
to hitching. When bought Dexter years
ago, was asked by an old trainer to please
not speed him before road wagon, as he
would get to hitching A horse once hay

always afterward unsteady on his feet. The

altogether with any necessity for weights.
