Galtee More is probably the most cele

sums haze been offered for him. He is
the first Irish bred horse that has Won the
English blue ribbon and the St Leger,
and Mr.. Gubbins. his owner, is so proud
+ the honor that il is doubtful whether
money could purchase the horse.
Mr.. Guthins is one of the richest prop
erty owners in Ireland, and the sentiment
is 50 strong that if Ireland was kingdom
there is little doubt that Mr.. Guhbins would
be selected to fill the honored position of
king. His victory in the English Derby on

carried 126 pounds and was then ridden by
The reinsti,ted Jockey. Charley Wood.
He covered the distance, one and half
miles, over Epson Downs, in 2:44, win
Mug in a very easy fashion. Galtee More

have seen the horse and are capable of

Of interested parties as on the previ-
