a notable instance being the case OF the

of 22sl. During the past week he started
at Philadelphia in the 2:29 class and reeled
of the winning heats in 2.214. 2:2l1f and
2:lsH. Three OF his get have also followed
their sire into the charmed circle. Maud

of 2:31, which was no measure OF her speed,

will enter the 230 list next season as year

the property of Mr.. Brockett Waterlick
Warren county, Va. If her colts by the sons
of Electioneer show up IN the beginning as
producers in such a promising manner as
have her grandchildren springing from the
loins of Hannis and Norfolk. then the sup
position is that a grand family OF trotters
will trace to the black daughter of Flyaway.

Baron Wilkes, 2:1S, started in race for
two-year-olds at Nashville, Tenn, on
Thursday last, finishing second In 2:2l

The grand old trotting sires Dictator
and Harold are fast whitening away.
Both are sons of Rysdyks Hambletonian.
Harold is twenty-eight years old and as
the sire of the ex-queen Maud s., 2:OS 81,
and thirty-siX others in the 2:3O list, his
name is widely known. Dictator is nine
and-twenty years of age and still sur
wives his full brother Dexter, the brown
geldng with four white legs and face,
who trotted to a record of 217 IA on
August II, 1867, al Buffalo, y. Y, en-
rolling his name as King Of the Turf.
Though springing from royal ancestry
Dictator is a king in his own right by
virtue OF his potency as sire. His (
daughter Nancy Lee is the dam of the
reigning empress of the trottinS turf,
equaled the 210 trotting record Of his |
son Jay-Eye-See, made at five years old,
and who this season at fourteen years |
of age has again proven himself marvel ,
by pacing in 2:06. Harold and Dictator,
like most OF the surviving sons OF Ham
bletonian 10, are in the sere and yellow |
leaf and the chances are that neither |
will see another spring.

Mr. ]. S. McCauley, OF Greensboro, N.
c., has sold to Richmond parties the
bay gedlng McAlister, 2:24 IA sired by
Blacks Hambletonian (sire Of Avena,
2:25 1-2, Bruce, 2;27 Ia, etc), dam Katie
James, by Waterloo, son Of Richelieu,
by Mambrino Chief. McAlister is a nice
oolored bay. He possesses grand style
combined with great finish and beauty.
At the Exposition meeting he Clipped
five and three-quarter seconds from his
former record of 2:3O made in 1890. He
can beat 2:2O with little effort and next |
season If he keeps right will take record
down in the teens.
