A REAL ONE.
AZ this season Of the year the woods are
full OF prospective phenomenons, bu, this
looks like a real one Colonel John q.
Taylor. of st. Louis. Mo, who owns the
pacing stallion Joe patchen. 20i. stated
last summer that ne knew OF trotter By
Patchen wilkes that. II he could secure
him for his stable In 1895. would De- In the
free-for-all class before the season was
flr sdvanced SIR. Taylor has secured
the trOtter he referred {, for the coming
season, and has entered him In the g19
stake opened by the Driving Club ot New
York. The horse I'm question Is the black
stallion Westbrook. by patchsn wilkes.

I'm exactly the same lines as Joe Patchen.
Westbrook was foaled In 1850. the property
Of his present owner Willis Westbr0ok.
of Peabody. Kan. AS a i-year-old he
entered the $50 list. and In l@e he re-
duced his record to 2:2l. since which time
he has not been trained. All his trottlng
has been done over half-mlle tracks. and
his training has been limited 10 the period
between the stud season and the racing
season. Good judges think him capable
Of trotting In 2;l0. and he should prove
"A worthy companion to Joe Patchen.
LITTLE ROCK DERBY.
Fred. Taral Will. In all probability. have
n mount in the Little Rock Derby. and h
smart one AT that. Rupert, the million
ARE brewer OF New York. has three en-
tries. and Johnny Campbell. In charge OF
them. Is quoted as saying that he expects
10 capture tho prize. As the premier
jockey was once a protege Of Campbelfs.
Il Is more than likely that Taral Will ride
one OF the Rupert Derby candidates n
he goes to Little Rock. Counter Tenor
Is believed TO be the colt on which Camp
bell depends 10 turn the trick. therefore
II II the general supposition that Taral
win have this mount. Charley Thorpe VIII
be with the Flclschmanns, and viii, no
doubt, have the Sir LON mount IN inc
Derby. Lonnie Clayton's home Is In Little
Rock, and the ci yer little coloref light
weight will very likely be seen IN the sad
die there In April.
