The Ashland Record, whose editor is

Of his paper: "Rev. H. S. Wallace, the
Junction City evangelist who has been
conducting revivals at Klamath Falls,
Wood river and Lakeview, took Mon
days train for the north. He is re-
formed lawyer, and after seeing the
wickedness Of his profession and sinful
life, took tumble to himself and re-
pented. There are other lawyers who
need repentance bad enough, but have
been so stepped in infamy that redemp-
tion is beyond reach. Nothing but hell
could disturb their conscience. The

there is no living horse that can beat
Maud SIS record to the old sulky. AliX
has been twice advertised to try 1t and
has failed.
When Senator Leland Stanford, of
California, sold Sunol to Mr.. Bonner,
the horse was lame, though the Sena-
tor did not know 1t. The horse would
start out bad, but would warm up and
lose the lameness every day. Some one
tod Mr.. Bonner about il, and he closely
examined the animal and instructed
the trainer to make certain changes in
the set Of the shoe. The change was
made, and Immediately Sunol mended
and was never lame again. The same
thing, as every one knows, was true CT
Maud s when Mr.. Vanderbilt sold her
to Mr.. Bonner. and she was cured as
easily as was the California horse.
In speaking of the effect of the in
PRODUCTION of the bicycle sulky, Mr..
bonner said that, although the average
gain over the old time sulky was six
seconds, in many cases the advantage
secured was much more. Especially
was this the case he said, In regard to
young horses which have not yet gain
ed their weight pulling strenga and to
which every extra pound is a great eff
fort. In their case the difference IN
many instances amounts to as much as
10 or IL seconds. He told me of case
that recently happened on his own
three-quarter track. A young animal
that had record of 2: SO to an old style
sulky the first time she was harnessed
to a pneumatic machine trotted mile
in 2:27A, and another colt, with rec
ord Of 23s1, made 2:29A the first
time he was hitched to the bicycle
wheeled contrivance.
The wonderful ability possessed by
Mr.. Bonner In training and developing
the qualities OF a horse is evidenced by
the case Of a mare named Maud c.

A great many men keep fast trotting
horses and race them for the sake Of
the purses they may win, Others for the
glory of having the world know that
they are tine owners of the winners Of
great stake events. There is a man
living in New York, however, who has
owned and still owns some of the most
famous trotters on the American turf,
who has never raced horse for money
during his life.
Mr.. Robert Bonner is one of the best
known figures in the trotting world.
He has given many free exhibitions Of
speed on the Prospect park, Union,
Fleetwood and Fashion tracks and on
our roads, where the public has had
the opportunity Of seeing the horses
driven.
Mr.. Bonner has bred some OF the
fastest trotting horses on the turf at
his farm at Tarrytown, n. T., besides
having purchased many of the great re-

When she was owned by Mr.. Frank
Rockefeller, of Cleveland, she was said
by Geers, VINO trained her for one sea-
son, to have as much speed as any
horse in the world. but she was ex-
tremely nervous and unsteady. This
was on account Of the bad condition Of
her fest, in consequence of which he
got her very cheap.
Mr.. Bonner repedled that trouble,
and she Is now as steady az a clock.
Very recently she trotted a mile on Mr.
Bonner's track to wagon In 2:l0h
This is the fastest time ever made 10

cord breakers, including such celebri-
ties as Dexter, Raru,, Maud 5. and
Sunol. Among the well-known trot-
ters ne has bred are Mays HANDLE
tonian, the sire of Bosque Bonita, the
first American trotter TO beat all the
records that had ever been made in Eu

Cartridge, 2:141a Majolica, 2:15; Chey-
enne, 2:09la; Instant, 2: 14A, and 9TH
ers still faster, but with no public rec
ords.
The dam Of Lightning, 2:11, the fast
est tTotter that the great Alcantara
has sired, was also bred by Mr.. Bonner,
as were the dam OF Edith H., 2:10A,
the best one that Ducalion ever sired;
the sire of the dam of Emma Of1utt,
2:111a, the fastest one that Ganbetta
Wilkes ever sired, and the dam Of Pro-
tein, 2:11A. In fact, about 100 horses,
with public records, can be traced to
animals bred on Mr.. Bonner's farm
II is interesting to know, by the
way, that Mr.. Bonner has the body and
wheels of the buggy in front OF which
the wonderful mare made her great
record ali Grated UP carefully at his
stock farm. The mare is also there,
and it has been Mr.. Bonner's great hope
to get her in foal to some noted sire,
but THUS far the effort has not been
attended with success. As Maud S is
q years Of age. it is doubtful is any
of her progeny would show phenomenal
speed
| asked Mr.. Bonner whether, in his
opinion, Alix's record OF 2:C3A would
be beaten. He replied that without
doubt trotters would in the future cut
several seconds from the present fig
ures. that breeding knowledge and sci
ence were stiN in their infancy, that
tracks might by the invention OF some
better machine than the one now used
for harrcwfng and smoothing might be
made faster In tiEns. 'StlH,' ~ said,

are not a sufficient number of horses

it is probable that there will be some
excellent racing on the track.

The track was in good condition and
the weather was favorable. The sur

Sir: A pigeon shoot is to be given

According to the statements in the pa
pers over one hundred pigeons are TO
be used for the occasion.
Such shooting events as this are I'M
doubleday OF barbarous nature and
something that should not be permit
ted by the authorities, as it is in direct
violation of the laws of the State. To
permit the event 10 take place will be
an act of inhumanity upon the part of
the authorities. and If they wish to
maintain the regard and respect of all
law-abiding and humane citizens. they
will do all in their power TO prevent
the match from taking place, as it is
nothing more than a deliberate and use
less slaughter Of innocent birds.
