weeks before the Derby he looked like the
best horse St. Iauisan ever owned
Wealthy ST, Louisans are noted for not
owning good race horses j. ID. Lucas Is
an honorable exception. MIR. Lucas has
eDdsavored 10 own good one and has
tried, meant and would have had them had
he been spared the turf. Messrs. L-emp and
Crowley are eminently calculated 10 own a
good race horse with entire propriety. Doc
tor Crowley is an Irish sportsman of the
right kind You cannot get them any bet
right.
Mr.. Lemp is a horseman. about as close
z thirg TO the. riding English owner as we
self Some day when owners races may be
more fashionabls ne viii do loI pounds and

II is a very great pity that Wounded Knee
ran his race in his works: He might have
dore something. No doubt he is big. green
nag, bene-haddied shack of a coping
sood horse. His hind legs bother him com

Around The stretch they say he is a
neck That is TO say. he is a nervous
beast who everlastingly hangs his head
ofer MS box door, and Is ever seeking
trouble and excitement. They say that is
. bad. No doubt 1t can be cured. Doctor
Crowley can cure most anything in a
horse. This looks easy. Why not shut the
door?
Let US hope that some day Mr. I,emp may
have good nag that will go around and
win their Derbies ono by one. New York
has its Whitneys and Belmonts. Chicago its
Smiths and Featherstones, Cincinnati Its
Fleischnlans, Memphis its Schorr: ST. Louis
had its Schneider. aud they ruled him off.
BIZ; some day ST. Louis will have a race
horse. Goodwood ought to do something IN
the way of crack one of these days. Mr..
Lucas has not been at it very long but he
has the right stuff and is of the Kind that
should breed good horse. II will not ne
long until Mr.. l4emp pricks up good one

every possible necessary equipment Of the
sportsman who is also the gentleman.
Ii is pity that MIR. Robert Aull is such
good and fortunate manager Of race
meeting. Though he may not yet he a
hloated cDupon-clipper he would own a good
horse we're he In ray 10 race such For
he knows good horse when he sees him.
Mr.. Aui Is one of the very keencst Judges
of hoTsefiesh, brsfding and conformation at

matter IN what strange form the best came
he can see farther into the quality of a
horse than any man In the West. bar John
