One OF the most learned writer's in
this country on subjects pertaining to-
the thoroughbred horse Is the venera-s
bic S. Y. keene, OF Georgetown, KY
whose comments on wonderful Salvi-s
dere in The Thoroughbred Record will
likely prove interesting to our readers,
seeing that he refers especially to the
NirEinia-bred horses Boston. Eolus and

At the advanced age of ninety years
with my sight almost gone and my
memory wreck, and rcmcmb ering
the old adage, once a man and twice

me that i feel like ventllnting. see
conjectures as to blood relations that
brought about the wonderful Salviderc.
My opinion is that it was a double
cross of that grand old mare Maggie

cross or imp. Eclipse. If this is not
ideal breeding, Il is most and it is
home brewed. Henry of Navarro i'm
parted to Sallio McClelland one cross
OF imp bennington through 1iolus, and
one of imp. Eclipse through Scathelock,
and two Boston crosses through Ken
lucky, and War Song, dam Eole, st.

foundation Of a fortune for Capt r. ].
Hancock. of the E!lcslie Stud, In Vir-
GINA.
Now. another thought claims my at
tention. Boston and his son Lexing-
ton have had their history fairly well
written up. and old Glencoe the Same.
Why should not Glencoes son Vandal
have his name enrolled among tho
proudest representatives OF American
turf history.
I heard the late Col. S d. Bruce.
author of the American Stud Book, say
that. according to opportunities, he
questioned If Vandal was Inferior to
