Surely, if matters were properly adjust

carriage horses she wants and have a
good many to spare for others. Until
adjustments do take place matters will
remain as at present and iob-masters be

travellers on this errand are Messrs.

The trotters and PAGERS are making
new records for June this year. Rob-
ert Us mile in , FOG at Denver and Mas
cots mile in ? :07 at New York are won
derful performances, as is also the mile
in :l04 scored by Maud G.. at Dubuque,

three-year-Old colt AthaniO at Denver,
is another performance of note, aud
among the slower performers the time
is averaging faster than in any previous

There are sentimental as well as utili-
tartan reasons for the widespread popu-
larty OF the horse. The boy who be-
gins by driving goat to his tiny car
rage quickly becomes ambitious to con-
troll more highly developed animal,
one more responsive to intelligent touch,

and he Is not satisfied until he has a
horse. Were there anything higher he
would 90 higher, but as there is not he
seeks to command the highest type of
the horse. The very inirmities of the
horse excite sympathy and endear him
to mankind" says Turf, Field and Farm.
GLOW gratifying is his neigh of well
come, how proud of him you are when
YOU stroke his glossy neck and feel the
breath OF his thin nostrils, and how he
lifts you above the dull things of earth
when he struggles to place you ahead OF
all competitors. He is not mere
machine, but a responsive being and Il
faithful companion. 1t requires skill to
control him, but this constitutes the
witching art of which the poet sang.
Those who have the means to indulge
in pleasure horses will always do so.

ands of years of development, cannot be

AMERICAN HORSES FOR LONDON

AMERICAN HORSGo FUN LOlNOON'
An experiment in the expectation of
horses is about to be made that VIII be
watched with great interest by breeders
of trotters. 4 well.known dealer has
avowed his intention of gathering togeth-
er and exporting to London, England,
no less than fifty fine roadsters, thirty
of which will be matched in pairs, and
several of these pairs will be able to trot
to pole in , 20 or better. The dealer
in question recognizes that he has set
himself colossal task to collect such a
large band of roadsters that will conform
to the standard hehas set. Each animal
must be of some solid color, bay, brown
or dark chestnut, fifteen hands and
three quarters or over, and not one will
have record slower than 2:3O. To
yield fifty horses meeting these require
ments trotters' ranks will have to be
ransacked to the uttermost, tor while
allowing that they might easily be found
it is certain that comparatively few will
be offered at 4 dealing price. Great at
tention will be paid to purchasing only
those possessing the sort of action favor
ed in Britain and it is conceded that this
action is not generally associated with
even , % speed. However, be the diff
cultes what they may, the fact remains
that the effort is to be made to buy such
lot of horses and place them on the

will create something of sensation in
horse dealing circles in that colossal ard
ancient city, but whether the men who
buy high-priced horses in England will
purchase them Is another story altogeth-
er. In all probability the horses if really
fine individuals and good actors in their
slower PAGES will find a ready sale at
remuneratve prices, for the majority of
fast trotters that have been taken to
England have not been good to look at
and those that were have commanded
large prices. The British dealers are the
most enterprising in the world and
should they find that this lot of Ameri.
can horses quickly finds buyers there is
no doubt that they will speedily sail for
our shores to procure another supply
The British dealer cares not where he
buys his horses so long az he can find
those which the buyer wants. And
moreover, if this stylish lot of trotters
should be favorably recognized the
American national horse will have new
field. Hitherto trotters have found no
great favor in England. but their merits
have never yet been exploited as they
will when the consignment spoken of
reaches London under the care, owner
ship and management of a reputable
gentleman well known in breeding cir
les on both sides of the ocean. Should
these horses be favorabiy received they
will open up trade that will put hun
dreds of thousands of dollars in our
breeders pockets during the years to
