MarStOn c., 'the guideleSs WONDER" gave
an exhibition Wednesday afternoon that
was remarkable in many ways. The horse
is not freak, but one of the best bred stall
lions in the State. Somehow he has picked
up the trick of trotting alone, the gait be-
ing as natural for him as it is for the major
lty OF horses to run. He is by Piedmont,
dam of Electioneer, and received record
of 2.19 as three-year-old. He is owned
by the Pearl Brook Stock Farm. He was
brought out with a white exhibition jack
saddle and bride, with short, white reins
colored boy rides blOoded running horse
beside him and is dressed in white with a
red cap and white saddle. This makes
a very striking combination, but the real
picture is when the big stallion gets under
way and with name and tail streaming in
no ind cot foe Of alir
ting gait. The crowd persisted in getting
onto the stretch yesterday, and frightened
the big trotter so that it was impossible to
give him good start or to get him away so
he could be timed, but he went pretty fast
half. He would make fine match for Nell
son and resembles him in action as well as
in Waterville Sentinel
In write-up of the horses at the Central
Maine fair, Turf, Farm and Home says:
The largest string of horses at the
stables is that shown by the Pearl Brook
Farm: people of Belfast; nine "fine and
dandy" ones constituting the list The
famous bay stallion, Marston c., who as a
three year old did mile in 219}, by right
fame OF doing fast mile without rider or
driver, paced by the chestnut runner
Morgan, horse who has done the mile in
1.41. Marston c., has been attracting a
great deal of attention wherever he has
been shown and may be truly called
wonderful horse. The chestnut mare Elm
Bud, 2.2O4, the little horse which has
started in seven races this season and has
never missed first money in one of them, is
in this string and has many admirers
among the turf following. Then there are
the bay mare Fanny Delmar, 2294; the
black mare Oracle Direct, who figured in
an eight heat race recently at Belfast and
did one of her miles in 2:29t; the bay mare
fourth heat Of an eight heat race; the bay
mare Arzille with a mark of 2.124; the
brown stallion MascOnOmo with record of
2.164 also the brown mare Ora Drew, with
out record but with speed.
