for herself. Some man should take
chance on her; he may get gold mine.
Also win be offered to the highest bid
der black colt by Montana Guard out
of a mare OF Hambletonian blood. The
youngster trots, and as his dam was
great road mare, he may develop into
! good road horse il not into a fast
| trotter.
A very impressive four-year-old that
will go to the highest bidder is the brown
gelding John, by Wotchcliff, a son OF
Alcantara, 2:23. and his dam is Eva
Hal. by Star Hail. one of the great sires.
This fellow trots, and he will unques-
tionably make a fast trotter. He is
strongly made about 15.2 1-2 hands. and
his only markings are stripe and two
hind stockings. He is now ready for
track or road work. One of the most
beautiful creatures in the consignment
is the sorrel five-year-old FLY Nellie.
She is put up at both ends for hard
wear, and she has the best Of feet and
legs. Her only markings are a strip
in the forehead and white front pat
tern. She is quartered and muscled like
1.200-p pound cart horse, and yet she is
a mare of the highest finish and fit to
exhibit in any show ring when man.
nered for it, She possesses a beautiful
head and neck carries her head Just
right as she also does her full and beau
tiful tail, and in motion is an equine
picture The man who gets her right
will get "A prize. She is the making or
trotter if properly handled. Her dam
is a mare of Nutwood blood, and the
filly shows the finish of the Nutwoods.
The Duchess is a hve-year-old pay

white. She, too, is kind and gentle, and
is well broken to harness. She is a
handsome mare, strongly coupled, makes
a good appearance in harness. goes all
the time on the trot. and is by Austral,
all of which should make her valuable
purchase for some one who appreciates
style, breeding, and gentleness.
An unnamed brown illy, with a star
and well furnished, by Montana Guard
out of Hazel Lad, should attract the
attention of buyers. She is three years
old and while she is not fully broken
she should develop into something use
full for some one She is going to be,
with age. a handsome filly, and who
knows but what she may be the fastest
of the lot of youngsters offered? 1t
should be borne in mind by the reader
tat these horses are not the culls from
Brightview Farm; they comprise, except
in one or two instances, its first output.
They are sold because circumstances
compel the farms owners to make room
for others The farm can only carry
just so many head OF horses. 1t is quite
possible that the Janvins Brothers will
hold in the future annual sales of stand
ard-bred horses-that is, two and three
year olds-thus allowing the farmers OF
10 htlN hiChlV-hrpd
sters cheap and grow them into horses
at a profit to themselves.
No one these days would think OF Wis
iting Brightview without asking to see
Kushan, 2:1S IA. that good son of Krem-
lin (5l. POI "a, and Rusalka. by Mazat- |

tioneer and Rosemont, Rosemont being
by Piedmont. 2:17 IA, son of Almont 80.
Rosemonts dam being the celebrated
Beautiful Belle. 1t was something over
twelve months ago that we had seen
Kushan. and we are sure that no one |
ever saw the demon trotter" carrying
the flesh he now does. which speaks
volumes for the careful attention OF
Supt Michael Flaherty. Kushan's crest
has greatly enlarged during the past
year He has filled out also in the bar |
rel loins, and chest, and in every way |
is an improved horse as far as looks |
are concerned 1t is like carrying Goals |
to Newcastle to dwell at length upon |
Kushan in this community as a race !
horse or as a sire. With such oppor- |
tunities as he has had, he has left in |
delible marks upon the horse-kind in |
this and other sections.
He looks the race horse and sire OF
speed that he is. He has size without |
being gross. His breeding shines through |
his satinlike coat: his kingly ancestry
tracing as it does to the Godalphin and |
barley Arabians, founders Of the Eng
fish running breed-shows itself in his |
proud carriage. Kushan was in high |
spirits on Tuesday, and Mr.. Flaherty |
had his hands more than full to keep |
him within bounds as he logged to cart |
around the track in his daily exercise. |
Kushan is going sound in his jogging, |
and Javins Brothers are somewhat in |
clined to condition and race him again /
after the close of his stud season. In |
the matter OF appearance Kushan looks |
younger than he did when first brought |
to Washington. Every one in this baili-
wick comedies that if there. ever was a
horse that had the Indian signs of a
2:10 or better trotter, Kushan was that |
one Halls in 1:04 were to him like one
breaking twigs. Had his front under
remained sound, he might have
taken a record as low as POS: Kushan
belongs to a game racing family, and he
Is game as any member of it, bar
none. He carries in his veins the blood /
