skill and daring on the part of the opera

commonplace, everyday affairs, which
almost any recent graduate would un-
dertake, while on the other hand. it
would include accounts of many opera
tons in the ACCESSIBILITY or possibility of
which no surgeon Of 1857 or prior years
believed, and of some of which they had
not even dreamed. 1t is true that it is
hard to find more marvellous stories than
some'of them given by Doctor Eve, as, for
example. that entitled "Amputation Of
the Head; Patient Surviving the Opera

ness of which is somewhat diminished

occasion she was driven by Mr.. Wander

Aldine. covered mi e in 2:15k. Consid-
ering the weight carried, l consider 1t the
greatest performance ever made in double
harness. Aidine's record is 2:19A. but Mr..
Vanderbilt told me that Maud carried
the wagon, load and all, about
three-quarters Of the mile. when Al,

the home quarter with her. Previous

MAUD 8. Is YEARS OLD.
Robert Bonner Says She Will
Break the Trotting Record.
NANCY HANKS IN DANGER.
The Bicycle Sulky -Four Seconds Faster
Than the Old One-Maud .. in
Perfect Condition.

NEW York, Nov. 2s-rSpecial Core
spondence. l--"While do not in any way
wish to disparage the performance Of
Nancy Hanks in obtaining her unpar-
alleled record Of 900" said Mr.. Robert
Bonner, at his home, mo. West Fifty
sixth street, last evening. 81 believe Maud
s.. to bicycle sulky, upon the modern
kite-shaped track. would be the fastest
trotter the world has ever seen, and in
order to test this have determined to put
Maud s. in training and see if she cannot
lower the record of Nancy Hanks.
"a year ego, as you remember" con-
tinued. Mr.. Bonner, II made an offer Of
IS, 900 to the owner Of horse who trotted
a mile in 2:0j within two years on any of
the grand circuit tracks from Cleveland to
Hartford. That offer was included in
letter which | wrote to Gen. B. f. Tracy
just year ago. further said" reading
from the letter, lone gentleman has stated
that 1 will undoubtedly have to pay it, to
which | replied, l do not believe Gen.
Tracy himself thinks so.
I'm his reply" said Mr.. Bonner, Gen.
Tracy says. I have long believed that
horse would yet appear that would trot a
mile in two minutes, but I have never set
any time within which I thought that
performance would be made. 1t is not

up between the drivers legs and is operated

as if she had done absolutely no work."
continued Mr. Bonner. Her legs and
wonderful bursts of speed that she has
made. She is one Of the finest ami
mais, so far as temper and intelligence
are concerned. that l have ever known.
Here is what Mr.. Vanderbilt wrote me,
when he acknowledged my check for $40,-
600: 1 must congratulate you upon being
the owner of the best and finest horse in
the world. l am sure you will find her
simply perfection itself in every particular.
She is always ready to do anything you
would have her, always expecting kind
treatment, and of the fullest confidence
that she is not to be hurt. She seems to
know as much as a man, and has one of
the most atfectionate dispositions. These
are great requisites, and no one can but
admire them, and we must all love the
animal assessing them.'''
''Tell me little something about Maud's
career, Mr.. Bonner"
1.-THE trotting career of Maud s. began
when she was years old. At that time
she covered half mile in lib. Late in

likely that you or 1 will live to see it,
although l hope we may The inter.
viewer said you thought an ultimate speed
at the trotting gait was 2:O6 or 2:05, have
forgotten which, and l replied that be-
lieved that would be beaten in five years.
l have never said it would be beaten in
two years, and. Notwithstanding Arion's
great performance, / doubt whether he
can reach that figure. While am Obliged
to admit that he may. 1 do not believe
that he will trot in 205 in the next two
years.

not intend it as an inducement to an i'm.

duce finer stock. / do not believe that
Nancy Hanks ever saw the day that on q
grand circuit track before a regulation
sulky, like that used to July last, she
could trot in 2:09 l may be mistaken,
but that is my belief. | believe now that
we are much more likely to see two min
utes on kite-shape track, before bicycle
sulky. than we were at the time l made
my offer to see POS before the sulky used.
as I said, to July last.
THE bicycle sulky IS acknowledged to
be at least four seconds faster than the old
regulations sulky, and the kite-shape track
is known to be from one and one-half to
three seconds faster than the regulation or
grand circuit tracks. Look at the number
of horses that have trotted below 2:20 this
year. 1t is unparalleled IN the history Of
the turf. Even second-cass horses, when
put before bicycle suiky, have been able
to knock off from three to eight seconds
from their record The track at Terre
Haute. on VIII CHI Nancy Hanks made her
time of 2:0i, owing to the elasticity of the
prairie soil, is at least minute TO a min
ute and half faster than the grand circuit
tracks. Taking Nancy Hanks time OF
2:04 and adding a minimum of five sec
onds, which is an allowance for the bicycle
sulky and the Terre Haute track, you have
