ing over the birth Of fine bay colt by

F.. Fl. Holley of North Anson has sold
some good horses. recently. Among
the list was a big bay horse. a pair of
browns and n gray mare to L. A. Bail
ey of Winthrop and bay horse to
parties in Bath.
Will Miller of Auburn has sold his
bay gelding, COalshed. 2.271s, to w.
r. Norton. proprietor of a summer ho-
tel at Kennebunkport. While this
horse has a speed record. it is not con-
sidered his limit. Those who have seen
him believe he can go in 2.20 or better
]. n. Percy. Bath, has purchased the
| fast trotting mare Ace of Hearts 2.19A
weighs 1850 lbs, stands 15-2k hands,
very handsome and can step much
faster than her mark. She was pur-
chased in Brooklyn, N. Y. where she
| has been brushed on the speedway and
| has given a good account of herself.
H. McAdam of Milltown. N. B.. gives
the following description of yearlings
| at Mayor Johnson's stables at Calais:
This colt is a BEAUTIFUL brown by Peter
the Great, out of Rubber. 2.1O. he is
certainly 4 splendid individual and
should make a great race horse. His
dam. Rubber. is one of the handsom-
est daughters Of Wilton 2.19A, and
| one of the gamest race mares that ever
raced. This youngster can now step
so fast that you would wonder how
one not having been trained, could
show so much speed. His gait is per-
feet and he certainly will be a show
| horse rs well as a fraternity winner
! W. s. Ham of Foxcroft sold a fine
| Vassar (2.07) colt to S. G. Sanford, las
| week. the price received being $4O0. 1t
| is three years old this spring, its dam
| being by Mallett. 1t has been har-
| messed 81 times and shows to be very
speedy animal Mr.. Ham has gained a
| reputation of raising good ones and he
| has a few more left that are equally
promising as the one just sold. One is
| also Vassar which will be three years
old in June that has made a trial heat
(one-third of a mile) at the rate of
| 2.3Sh. This one is to be campaigned
| the present season. Another good one
is a two-year-old by Mallett, whose
| dam is by Judge Advocate. Another
1 very fine looking colt is beautiful seal
brown by Pandoran, which will be -four
l years old the present season. Its dam
1 was by Judge Advocate. It now
