TROTTERS
AND PAGERS
A Fine Bunch Of Horses Now
at the Park.

Speeders on the Feed RoII-More
Coming Next Week-MonopoIe
and Nimrod Show to Advantage.
Morristown Driving Park presents
lively appearance these days. AS
fine bunch of horses as ever was
seen in northern New Jersey is quar-
tered there and more are coming.
At the present time five stables are
represented at the track and among
the 80 odd speeders are many we'll
known trotters and side-wheelers.
Chief among these is Theodore t.
Maxfelds Monopole. 2.oS1@, who was
second to Prince Alert in the free-for-
all here last fall. Prince Alert is the
champion half mile track horse of the
East, with a record of 2.0514 for the
mile, and when Monopole wins second
money in such class, where the
slowest heat is trotted in 100. it must
be conceded that he is a conner and a
very probable winner.
Among the others in Mr.. Maxfield's S
stable is the brown stallion Smith,
213; and his old love Nimrod, 217,
by Alcantara. The last named, it
will be remembered, cut wide swath
through the half mile tracks in Penn
sylvania and New York last season.
He is in better shape than ever and
will be dangerous horse in his class
this summer Then there is Rose H.,
2. 1917, who won three straight races
last fall; Alcyrene, 22314, by Alcy-
one, with a trial of 2.164; Beldia,
by Jack Dawson, he by Director, with
trial of 2. 1Sls, and Florida Prince,
with trial of O. 1871, as three-year-
DID, at Lexington. Among the green
ones may be mentioned Happy Jack
by Directors jug, Aloysia by Arion,
2.0714, Lady Lee by Warwick Boy,
and Nelly by Quartermaster, 2.2116.
With the last named mare Maxfeld
won match road race at Newark a
short time ago against mare driven by
Geo. Smith, of Bert Sheldon fame,
when, it was stated that over three
thousand dollars changed hands.
Gertriss is another green one. She
was raised by Leland Stanford, at
Pala Alto. Gala, and has made a
trial in 224 She is beautiful brown
mare and will be heard from during
the season.
W. Fl. Emery's string comprises ten
horses which are making the dust fly
in their daily work. There is Kitty
Van, 2. 1874, and May Coast, 2.3414.
These are the only ones with records
but the green ones have a good look
about them and will help to make
things interesting. Chief among
these are Emily D., Warren County
Prince and Eliza w. The two-year-
old colt Squire Bel, by Lynn Bel, is
in fine form and may do some work
with the two-year-old class this
summer.
Sandy Boy, 2.121s, is the centre
around which the others in Isaac HUI
ley's stable revolve. But he has a
close second in Theresa B., a chestnut
mare by Ollie Theresa B. has made
2. 1874 in race and has any number
of races to her credit Then there is
the gelding Waverly King, 2.214,
besides a half dozen green ones.
B. H. Demarest's stable is repre-
sented by Carldon, 2. 1014, chestnut
stallion of great beauty; Sweetmarsh,
2.1315, Kitty Hudson, q 1914, Lady
Lambert, 2.2414, and Linsign, 2. l54.
OF the green ones all are pretty
snowy. Martha has stepped half to
a road cart in l0la, the bay gelding
Hobert by Alfred c., made a trial in
2.211, as three year old last fall and
he has gone quarter in 3214 seconds
E. D. Oglesby the four-year-old bay
gelding has made a mile in .151@ and
half in .O6, pretty good showing
Allen Lowe, Jr., has shown himself
to be as good as his sire, Allen Lowe,
PAGER of great speed. Allen Lowe,
Jr., is owned by Mr.. Sanderson, of
Madison, N. j., but is i'll Mr.. Dema-
rests stable. Another Egood one in
this stable is Stamboul, Jr., owned
by Geo. W. GARNER, OF. Denville Nj.
In W. r. Cooks stable is Dell
Thomas, 2 20, and half dozen green
ones. One of the latter is W. r. c.,
bay PAGER, who has gone half in
30, the last quarter in 81 seconds
and the last eighth in .164. This is
horse that will be heard from later.
Another one is Daniel who went a
mile in 2.1714 to cart last fall and
shows fine form this spring.
Taken all in all the summer at the
track promises to be one of activity
and interest. More horses are now
quartered there than ever before in
the history of the association, but
more yet are coming. Before the end
of next week it is safe to say that rs
horses will be in daily, training there.
OF course these horses will not re-
main here all summer. At the end
OF a month those in condition will
go on the circuit and others will come
to fill their places. So it is expected
that all summer there will be no derth
of high steppers at the driving park.
