another $3.50, third S75 and the fourth
was passed out without a bid. The high
est price realized at the sale was $3.50 for
IA four-year-old sister to the champion
Osterley, and the latter's owner, John
Robertson, got a bargain in the chestnut
horse Pirate, by imp. Childe Harold
imp. Vioetta, at $3.50. The grand aver
aye of the sale was trifle over 500 per
head. 1t is related that the horses were
shown in good flesh and bloom. which
makes the sale look much worse than 1t
would if the offerings had been in poor
condition. Purses of $500 have been
contested for the past season, and some
of the clubs are in very satisfactory
state financially. Half loaf is better
than no bread, it is true, but it is to be
regretted that Australia is not proving a
good market for our surplus trotters.

Tho farmcr cuts the slabs of sod for
building purposes just as sod is cut for
transplanting grass.
The buffalo grass indigenous to the
western Kansas country grows like n
thick mat of closely curling tough heritage,
reminding one of the kinly hair of a
Guinea negro. The slabs of this sod, about
10 by ~ inches and 4 inches thick, hold
together like rolls of thick felt.
They are laid in courses like building
stone and pressed closely together, and the
roof is made of timbers and frequently
matched. The inside is then smoothed
with the native lime, which makes an ex-
cellent plaster.
The coat of lime is sometimes applied
outside also. but usually these sod houses
present natural dun color like the winter
prairie. In some cases the floor is made by
excavating a few feet and then tramping
the ground solid with horses; otherwise a
regular wood floor is laid.
The window and door frames are fitted
as in the building stone houses. The sod
house contains frequently only one room,
but some have two and even three rooms.
The elements tend to mako ono mass of
the sod rather than dissipate and crumble
it.
They last about five years.-Kansas City

TROTTERs IN AUSTRALIA.
/ From the HOrseman

1t seems as though we will shortly be
compelled to make up our minds that no
market can be found in Australia for our
trOtters. Last season several shipments
were made from San Francisco, and pre-
vious to 1894 spasmOdic efforts had been
made to gain with eastern-bred trotters
favorable antipodean notice. Alas, for
the success of such attempts. At re-
cent public vendue held at Hobartvile,
In pursuance of the determination reached
by the proprietors of that most famous
Australian stud to displenish the entire
equine stock, even draft horses brought
more than some of the American-bred
trotters. The imported mare Sylph,
whose breeding was given as by Reliance
-WenOna, and who had filly fOal at
foot by Viking, was knocked down by
the auctioneer at $50, while two other
American-bred mares brought $50 and
$3.50 respectively. Other prices for
two and three-year-old colts and fillies,
the progeny Of American-bred parents,
were $50, $40, $50 and $40, while of the
four yearlings offered one brought 500,

for his action in Withdrawing from tbs
third race for the Americas cup. The fol.
lowing reply from Dunraven has been re
,ceived from New York:
lowing TO the excessive crowding by
steamers at the first two races especially
at the start and ON the last ten miles
of the second race, / notified the cup com
mittee on the 10th inst. requesting that
the letter be not opened until after do
cision had been rendered with regard to
the foul at the start Of the second race
that owing TO the danger of a serious &C
cident by collision with the excursion
steamers and otherwise, and owing TO tho
absolute absurdity of carrying on races
under such conditions, l should decline to
start unless some arrangement were made
to race in clear water.
81 requested postponement Of Thurs
days race with view of arriving at such
an arrangement. The committee found II
impossible TO concedo this.

At the time that the yachts cast of their
lines from their respective tugs there was
every indication that there would be a
good breeze up to the time that they got
down to the Sandy Hook lightship. Haw
sers were cast off about at the Scotland
lightship point, but when the boats got
down to the outer lightship the wind had
fallen to about four or five miles an hour
and had shifted from south-southwest to
west by north. Under that condition Of
breeze the committee saw that they could
send the yachts away before the wind out
to sea without any danger Of touching
land and they did so.
If tho committee had undertaken TO
send the boats to windward on the first 10
miles of the course, they would have had
to shift the starting line to a point well
down on the Long Island coast, and that
they deemed inddvisable.
While the committee was signaling, the
Valkyrie was sailing around without
clubtopsail, as though to notify the poo
pie in charge of the race that she was not
satisfied with the way in which the ex-
cursion boats had congregated back Of the
starting mark. Valkyrie continued TO
make little runs and tacks without her
clubtopsail, and the onlookers to a man
said that the Briton was not going to race.
just exactly why Lord Dunraven had
refused to make a contest Of it did not
appear to the observers at the time. But
the opinion was held that his lordship de-
manded a little bit too much. At that
time there was no vessel within a hall
mile of the starting line, and the entire
fleet of spectators was well to leeward Of
the line. Still Valkyrie went fussing
around in what may be called an arbitra.
ny way without any topsail and made tho
thousands of gazers tired.
The committee seemed TO grow impa.
tient as the apparently childish conduct
on the part of the Valkyrie, so at 10;55,
when they saw that there was a splendid
opening for start, they fred off a gun as
a preliminary TO notify Valkyrie that they
were ready. with all tha responsibility on
