Maine Hay Crop.

The midsummer bulletin of the State
Board of Agriculture has been issued.
The hay crop will fall off from Is to- 20
per cent. Throughout the western and
middle portions Of the state the loss is
considerably greater, but as one APP
proaches the eastern boundary the full
crop of 1891 has been equaled. What is
lost in quantity is probably made up in
quality, for never was there year when
the hay crop has been harvested in bet
ter condition than this, and as natural
consequence its feeding value must be
proportionately increased. The frequent
showers following the clearing of the
fields have given the grass a good start.

A sorely Abused Husband Makes SEN
sation.


There was wild yell on Market street
near. Congress last night at 11.3O. and
moment later team with man in it
dashed down the street so furiously that
all who were around at that hour thought
there was a terrible runaway. But it
was no such thing. 1t seems that the
man in the team had been taking anoth-
er mans wife to ride. The wife was
making her home near the corner of
Market and Congress streets and there
the husband lay in wait for ~ to re
turn. When she alighted from the car
riage he rushed out, lied Ia ..o4se's
head and was about to n-ov-. vengeance
on the man in the carriage. But the lat
ter, rising to the situation, struck his
horse heavy blow with the whip. The
spirited animal dashed forward at a
breakneck pace, hurled the husband to
the ground, rolled him over, dragged the
carriage over him and then dashed down
Market street at terrific rate. The wife
disappeared indoors, leaving her sorely
abused husbandEto pick himself up as
best he might. A kind policeman as
sisted him; and to the officer the man
recounted his woes, but would not give
his own name, or the name of the fugi-
tive in the carriage.

NANCY HANKS.
j. Malcolm Forbes the Owner OF the
Fastest Trotter in the World.

Nancy Hanks, the mare which has just
beaten the worlds trotting record by
making a mile in 2.074, is owned by j..
Malcolm Forbes of Boston, who pur-
chased her from Mr.. Hart Boswell OF
Lexington, KY, the breeder, last Octo-
Der for $4,000. Nancy was foaled in
1886, which was great year for trotters,
as Sunol, Allerton and Axtell were all
born in it. Her dam was a favorite mare
of Mr.. Boswell named Nancy Lee, sired
by Dictator, dam Sophie, by Edwin
Forrest. She was bred to Happy Medium
then the premier stallion, at General
Withers's Fairlawn Farm. Both Happy
Medium and Dictator were sons OF
Rysdyk's Hambletonian; So Nancy Hanks
is closely inbred to the hero of Chester.
The dam of Happy Medium was
Princess, by Andrus's Hambletonian,
and the dam of Dictator was Clara, by
Seeley's American Star, making him full
brother to Dexter, g. III Edwin Forrest
was of rather obscure breeding, and can
be justly considered foundation horse,
as his blood is found in many of the
speediest trotters, while that of his an
cestors is not, except through him. Ham
bletonian, American Star and Edwin
Forrest are the recognized strains in
Nancy Hanks's pedigree.
Her career as a trotter is unexam
pied. Starting first as "a 3-year old, she
has only been beaten one heat, her
first. In 1889 she gained record of 2.243
which was lowered in 1890 to 2.141.
Last season she won at Independence,
Ia, the fastest race on record, beating
Allerton and Margaret S., in PIP. 1.128,
PIP, and her trials, against time culmin-
ated in her trotting in 200 at Richmond,
Ind, September 80, 1881, which is the
best 5-year-old record on an oval track. lei
Nancy Hanks is dark bay or brown,
little above fifteen hands high, and not
attractive in appearance, having sham
bling gait when jogging, but when ex-
tended it becomes perfection.
She will remain in Budd Doble's hands
at least until the close of this season,
that being contract between Messrs.
Boswell and Doble, which the sale to Mr..
Forbes could not interfere with.-Boston

BANGOR. Aug. 19.-Vice President
Greedy ofsthe eastern Maine state fair

Waterxille, by which the latter agrees to
exMbitthe the horse Nelson. The horse
wiAsbe in Bangor at Maplewood track

Nelson many other famous horses will be

Fine Appearance of the Reed Cadets.

To the Editor Of the Press:
The Reed Cadets, to the number of
about 40, made a fine appearance on the
street last evening. They drill like vet
Grams already, though but short time
has elapsed since they organized. Hav-
ing been soldier I have quick eye for
fine military drill. With little more
practice they would make quite show
ing beside some of the militia companies.
This demonstrates how much can be &C
complished when both officers and men

VINO win Be vicar Genera12

Speculation is rife among our Catholic
citizens as to who will succeed the late
lamented FIR. Murphy as the next Vicar
General of this diocese, the see of Port
land. The names of Fir. Wallace and Fir.
O'Brien of Bangor have been mentioned
but inasmuch as the Vicar General is
usually stationed in the same city as the
bishop it seems quite improbable that
either of these prelates would be selected
unless transferred.
