cellor, Lord Herschell commences:
My Lords and Gentlemen; am graft
fed at the fact that your labors, though
exhausting, have been fruitful, and | am

my rela tions with foreign powers are
friendly but regret that variety OF

effect to the Behring Sea award and
have assented to an act OF Parliament

II regret to state that war has broken

FUfURlTY A RICH PRIZE.
Owners of Lucky Tvo-Year-Olds
Win Princcly sums.

The Futurlty Stakes is essentially a
lottery. In no other stake does the ele-
ment of chance enter so largely. Breed
crs all over the country enter the produce
of their mares by subscription of so
each. and until the following year and
after the stake Is closed no one can tell
whether that produce VIII turn out good
or bad. An added value is thus given
the youngsters at the yearling sales.
This stake originated In the fertile
brain Of j. G. x. Lawrence, President of
the Coney Island Jockey Club. and it
met with suca favor that at Its first
running. in 1883, its value to the winner
WAS $4,000.
In 1859 the stake was even more valu-
able. and in 1890 when the late August
Belmont's Potomac and Master ran FIRST
and second. the winner received $3.50.
This year that amount Will probably be
euualled 1t Is estimated that the stake
will be worth at least $50 600.
During the first four trimmings or the
Futurity the distance was three-quarters
of a mile. This made the horses finish
some Yards below the Judges stand. In
1892 this course was changed, and the
Futurlty course. 1858 yards. foot, was
substituted. This enabled the youngsters
to finish in front of the grand stand,
and IL also prevented jockeys from MAX
ing costly mistakes by pulling up before
the real finish was reached.
The following table may be interesting
