The new rose plants set out at the Ben
Venue greenhouses. some time ago, are
budding, and before long will be very hand
some. The pink plants are still yielding,
but of course not as abundantly as several
weeks ago. The chrysanthemums will soon
bloom, the plants having grown splendidly,
and it is expected that the blossoms will be
abundant. An exhibition was taken to the
Readfield fair from the Ben Venue green
houses, and an exhibit will be taken to the
Sidney fair, today.

The Germans Reported to Be Ex-
cited Over Our Own Bob Kneebs.

BERLIN. May "a sensation has been caused
IN German sporting circles by The sriz,lre Of
three ~trotti'tg mares bel"i'sI'ig To Az American
named kieebs. Ii appears that kncebS has
been winning Il number Of trottinE matches in
this country and that has won prizes IN money
TO The amount OF 80 marks with Bethel. one
OF his mares. by running her under the name Of
Nellie khecbs and declaring that she hat never
before won u match The discovery Of this

Of being shipped to ' emma.
Kneebs was subsequently arrested. hail Being

fraudulent issuing OF II false certificate Of pcdi-
gree to one Of the mares.
The above has caused a ripple of ex-
citement among Mr.. Kneebs' many
acquaintances in this section OF the
country. From time to time horse
men have watched with eagerness the
reports OF the races in Germany and,
in fact, any news which would give
light upon sour Bob's" manoeuvers
with the high flyers OF Deutscherland.
A Sioux City report states that since
BOb's arrest he has been released; that
it was completely and satisfactorily
proven that Bethel vas in America.
Geo. r. Freeman on Monday re-
ceived IA letter and package OF turf
papers from Bob kneebs under date
of Berlin. The letter was dated April
"a, at Berlin, and did not mention OF
any arrest by the German authorities.
Mr.. Kneebs reported that he was hav-
ing q delightful time, abundant sue
cess and would dispose Of all his
horses before he returned. His friends
wanted him to 60 to Italy, where nu-
merous purses were offered, and 1t was
quite likely that he would hobknob
with the Italians.
The Berlin turf papers speak in
glowing terms Of the wonderful driv-
ing ability of Mr.. Kneebs and declare
that he is the greatest driver Europe
has ever seen. They mention m In
stance Of his remarkable ability: He
was competing with the best trotting
| horse in Germany, and as he turned
one of the corners he drove with one
hand and, taking a handkerchief out Of
his pocket with tho other, wiped his
face. For all OF this he beat the Ger
man trotter by half a neck. The paper
stated that Mr.. Kneebs' horses would
do anything their owner wanted them
to do, 60 slow or fast, stop or walk; In
fact, do anything.
A telegram in the Sioux City Jour-
nal OF Tuesday states that Kneebs had
his preliminary hearing on May Z,
Monday, and that his bail bond would
be fixed at 5000. Herr Wronker, q
leading criminal lawyer, is defending
Mr.. Kneebs.
