The first few days of the March
term of the Bourbon Circuit Court
have been Of rather slow order and
nothing of Importance has come up for
trial. Tuesday and Wednesday were
consumed in hearing motions and the
assigning of cases for trial.
Col. r. B. franklin. who was detain-
ed in Frank fort On the op ening day by
reason of his having business in the
Federal Court, arrived Tuesday to as
sumo his duties as Commonwealth
Attorney. The grand jury has been in
daily session but nothing has been
given to the public. 1t is said the
body is investigating the cases where
the accused are confined in the county
Jail awaiting the action of the grand
jury, and it is probable they will make
a partial report in few days in order
for them to secure trial at this term
of court.
Yesterday was consumed in trying
two small suits. that of E. F. Spears
& Sons VS.. the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad and Queenie Jackson VS..
]. H. Haggard. In the former case
the jury returned verdict in favor of
the plaintiffs awarding them the
amount of their suit, $751; In the
latter case the jury failed to reach an
agreement and were excused by Judge
Stout until this morning at o'clock
when they will resume their deliber-
ations.

MAPLEHURST FARM.y--.

Locanda, 2:02, the fastest of the get
of Allerton, 2:0914, was one of the
gamest of the many game sons of that
mighty sire. He is also one of the most
beautiful stations the turf has known
and in his racing days turf writers
divided space between tributes to his
individuality which captivated his audi
ences. Of splendid breeding on both
sides of the pedigree, the fee of $50 for
living foal which his owner, w. A.
Bacon, Paris, Ky. has placed on his
services, seems small indeed, and should
result in a quickly filled book.
In the stud with Locanda, are the
noted sire Virgins, 2, 2:1915, and the
fast Peter Billiken, 3-year-old record
2:l614 over half-mile track. Virgins
has gained distinction as sire, having
three in The 2:10 list and total of SO
in the standard record roll of honor.
Peter Billiken is not only trotting
sensation but one of the best bred sons
of the famed futurity sire, Peter the
Great. 2:0714, as his dam, Baron Lassie,
is daughter of Baron Wilkes, one of
most renowned broodmare sires of the
age. and his second dam, Annie Sharp,
is a producing daughter of Nutwood.
In six starts during his 3-year-old form
in 1911, Peter Billiken was three times
first, twice second and once third, and
showed his ability to trot a half-mile
track in 2:l3. He is big colt, of the
fibre that will develop into a grand sire.
AS two-year-old he sired few colts.
and these show up we'll at the trot.
Peter Billiken is standing at $50 for
living foal and Virgins at SOS. A neat
booklet containing some interesting
things regarding these stations has
beeh issued by Mr.. Bacon, and will be
sent to any applicant.
Princess Hal, 2:O614. the good race
mare, owned by Frank Hedrick, of
jamestown. Ohio, has been bred to
