hi hi LtnUUn iiiLft 1 LliO SIR ARTHUR SULLIVAN'S POSTHU- MOUS "THE EMERALD ISLE" AT THE SAVOY GPEEA SEEMS A SUCCESS Mrs. Langtry and Her New Play At- tract the Public— London Flu y-H oases Doing; Very Well. LONDON, April 27.—'The Emerald Isle," a posthumous work of Sir Arthur Sullivan, was produced at the Savoy theater tonight before a briiilant audi- ence. The production showed that Sir Arthur Sullivan had lost none of his powers of melody and the opening chorus fully maintained the reputation of the deceased composer. The comedy parts were well sustained and the opera abounded in humor. The re-opening of the Savoy and the Grstrrtck theaters tonight leave 3 only three West en.l theaters with closed doors. Mosr of the playhouses are do- ing remarkably well. /The greatest suc- cess of the moment is'undoubtedly Mrs. liangtry'a new play at her new theater. No playhouse In London equals the Im- pi'rir.l in prettiness and goo,l taste, while the series of pictures of Paris and Ver- sailles is staged with a completeness and richness unsurpassed, though the j lay it- self is considered by critics not to be worth much. Next in interest to Mrs. Langtry Is as- suredly Etina May, and desp te the marks of disapproval which were manifested in Borne parts of the house at the first per- formance of "The Girl From Up There" and the generally cool criticisms, people are crowding to the Duke of York thea- ter. The nightly advance sales amount to over £3.000. The disturbance on the opening night is a danger to all American productions here and one for which over- zealous Americans themselves are respon- sible. The American colony in London and American visitors generally are in- tensely loyal to their own country's pro- ductions and when an American company comes over they generally fill the theater on the first night and applaud everything and everybody with lndiscriminat'.ng en- thusiasm. This produces the lmpres- son of an organized clique, interrupts the performance and unduly prolongs it by encores not desired by the rest of the audience. \u25a0" ~\VJ If American managers in London could induce their supporters to be more dis- creet In their expressions of partiality en first nights, they would have no more dif- ficulties with the pit and the gallery. Charles Frohman had another financial and artistic success "Wednesday, when he produced "Sweet and Twenty" at the Vaudeville theater, with Ellean Terriss and Seymour Hicks in the cast. Capt. Hood's play is generally acknowledged to be one of the most charming little love plays here in a long time. • Gertrude Elliott plays here for the first time since her marriage. The produc- tion 'of "Count Tezma" at the Comedy theater is generally condemned. LOST IN A CAVE. Estill, V«., Laid Wuudcra Many Days Under Ground. MIDDLESBORO, Ky., April 27.—One Week ago Tuesday Charley Raymond, aged twelve, disappeared from his home at Estill, Va., some twenty or more miles from here In the country. His disappear- ance was as mysterious as if the earth had swailowed him, which, in truth, proved to be the case, as he had wan- dered into a cave and become lost. Char- lew was forbidden to enter the cave, which is on the Raymond homestead, and runs back a short distance into the moun- tains. But a week ago he disobeyed his parents, and, when no one was looking, took a lantern and went into the cavern, bent on exploration. Becoming frighten- ed he tried to go out, but lost his way. His efforts only took him further and further from the cave's mouth. Presently' he stumbled into a hole, breaking his lan- tern, and" became unconscious. He had started on his exploring trip in the af- ternoon, and his absence was not missed until late in the day. A search was made at once. Failing to find him about the house the family came to the conclusion that he had gone with his brother to this place, where his uncle lives. His brother had started In the afternoon, and the little fellow had begged to go with him. Sunday, when he came home with- out Charley, the Raymonds became frantic. All the neighbors were roused, and for two days and nights a search was kept up. The cave was the last place thought of. The lad was found a short distance from its mouth, nearly dead. He had taken two or three biscuits with him when he started, but these had been eaten the first day. Since then not a morsel of food had passed his lips, al- though water was to be found in abund- ance in the cave. He bruised himself badly by the fall, and by running round his small prison trying to get out of the hole. The cave was warm, and he suf- fered little from the recent cold snap After being taken out he was delirious for hours. DISTRESS IN PORTO RICO STRINGENCY OP MONET CAUSES OF COMSrBROIAL MORTALITY. SAN JUAN, Porto Rico. April 27.—A mounted battalion of native troopers ar- rived here today and were reviewed by Lieut. Col. James A. Buchanan, of the Fifteenth infantry. This was the first public exhibition given by the troop: out- side of their home barracks at Cayey. Their evolutions and formations were wonderfully precise, and their drills com- pare favorably with those of the Ameri- can regular soldiers. Manuel Argueso, who failed for $3"-O,COO. will probably be able to re-establish him- self in business. Senor Argueso's firm Is one of the largest commercial houses in Humcaco. The assets of the firm have not yet been made known, but it is ba- lleved they are sufficient to meet all the liabilities. Other failures are expected and their cause is attributed to the strin- gency of money. This was Che reason of Senor Argueso's failure. Bankers here estimate the per capita, circula.ton of money in Porto Rico at about $2. OHIO FLOOD SUBSIDES. RIVER HAS COMMEATEID TO FALL AT CINCINNATI. CINCINNATI, April 27.—After remain- ing stationary at 53.7 feet for twenty-four hours tfle Ohio river began falling at 3 this afternoon and at 7 o!clock the stage was 59.5 feet. The weather bureau esti- mated that the river will fall to 59 feet by Sunday morning and get below the danger line on Monday.

The high records have heretofore been in February. OPTION TRADING LEGAL CONTRACTS FOR FUTURE DELIV- ! ERY HELD TO BE VALIJ). CHICAGO, April 27.—Alonzo J. Cutler. a board of trade broker, was today I awarded a verdict of $54,000 agatn&t C. \ W. Partridge. The amount of the ver- j diet represents losses which Mr. Part- ; ridge was alleged to have refused to pay on the ground that they were gambling ; debts, having resulted from speculation j on the Board of Trade. The action of i the jury is also a victory for the board, upholding as it does the validity of con- tracts made on 'change for future de- livery of grain or provisions.

LONDON, April 27.—A1l accounts agree that Emperor William thoroughly enjoys himself at Bonn, and, among the an- cients of his old corps, he became a stu- dent again. The emperor wore the \u25a0white cap and across his breast the bla.k and whte rifobon of the Bjrussia corps. His majesty himself took command at the symposium. issued orders in a firm tone and led off the so-called saiaman- ders, the thunderous rattling of beer mugs on the table, when the lead.ng toast was proposed. Ha also joined heartily \u25a0with a loud voice in singing students' songs, bringing down the flat of his rapier in th^ orthodox fashion witih a crash on the table at the end of ca^h verse. The proceedings reached a cli- max wlien his majesty called for that grandest of "German student songs, "Landesvater" ("Father of the Coun- try)." One of the verses in which the students swear to live or die for king and country, tach man crosses his rapisr with that of the man opposite him and caps are taken off and spkted on the ra- pier points, the crown prince crossed ra- piers with the aged Yon Loew, hknself an old Borussier. At another part of the proceedings, at which the emperor with great pleasure was calling up the former corps students, some of aged men, so that their health might be drunk in the order of the years they studied, the emperor called for a salamander for a blind old laywer, Herr Luff, father of the dramatist, Joseph Luff, who usually under his majesty's directions produces a new historical drama at Wiesbaden, illustrating the achievements of the house of Hohenzol- lern. Later, Joined by the students, he called out "Our Youngest Fox," the slang nickname of the youngest student. The emperor laughed heartily, and, clapping the crown prince on the shoulder, said: "Hoenst dv das? Er meint uich." (Do you understand that? He mean's you.) There was another humorous incident when one of the veterans in reply to the toast to the men of his year, drank to the canal bill and expressed tha hope that the old fellows of Berlin might at last real- ize that the canal must be -built. Tlie emperor lay back in his chair and laugh- ed loud and long. An interesting story is told of a sur- prise night visit paid by Emperor William to the training ship Charlotte, while at Kiel. The ship was anchored in mid-ocean, when the guard espied the emperor's pinnacle approaching and, a moment later the emperor was on deck, much to the surprise of the hastily-awakened captain. His majesty then began a rigorous inspection of the ship. In the dormitory he was astonisihed to find the cadets asleep under the glare of electric lights. "I scarcely believe they are asleep un- der such a light," said the emperor. "They are tired after their day's wo.-k," replied the captain. "They would sleep anywhere." The emperor was still skepfcal, shook a sleeping cadet soundly and awoke him. "So," said his majesty, "you s'.eep as well here as at home?" The cadet, recognizing his questioner, promptly replied: "Better, your majesty." The emperor was much gratified at the answer he received and returned to his own ship, delighted with hi 3 experiment. TOAST TO SAKE-WEIMAR. At Eisenach, at a banquet at the cas- tle this evening, Emperor William, re- sponding to a toast to his health, pro- posed by the Grand Duke Wilhelm Er- nest, after alluding to the many ties in- dissolubly uniting the house of Hohen- zollern and Weimar, said: "Saxe-Weimar has had a great share in the development of the empire, for in the fearful period when the father- land lay prostrate the great spirits of Weimar saved us by inspiring in the people the spirit that prepared a new fatherland. Your royal highness is the trustees of a great oallad urn, a palladium of science, a palladium of ideas, in which the German fatherland, German poetry and German strength Is so rich. Now (raising his glass). I drink not only to federal prince, but also to the protector of traditions, whom we have to thank for our intellectual wealth—his royal high- ness, the grand duke, hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!" Prisoners at Marlon, Ind., Locknp Are.Badly Frightened. MARION, Ind., April 27.—The prison- ers in the county jail are greatly fright- I ened at what they state is a ghost that visits the jail during the night. Frank Stilwell claimed he had seen the i ghost of Mrs. Victor Schultz. Other pris- ! oners also claimed to have seen the | ghost, and a panic ensued in the jail. Schultz was a mail carrier employed in I the local postoffice. He went home from I work on .the evening of April 3, shot his: ; wife through the heart, then shot Wil- | Mam Eikenberry, a friend who was sit- j ting in the room,. and attempted to shoot a neighbor lady who was also sitting in - the room. He then cut his own throat from ear to ear and fell across his wife's I body. Schultz has about recovered from M«? i wounds, arid is in jail awaiting his trial i for murder. He was greatly frightensd at the alleged ghost, and has not. been ! able to sleep since the incident. The prisoners declare they -saw the ap- I parition plainly, and that it was Mrs. ! Schultz. None of them were able to sleep I during the remainder of the *night, an.i caused so much noise that the citizens living In the vicinity of' the jail were disturbed. \u25a0 \u25a0 WHILE BROTHER IS DYING. Mrs. Nation Q,uarre2s With Attorney and Remains in Jail. WICHITA. Kan., April 27.—Charlss Moore, brother of Mrs. Carrie Nation, who is confined in the county jail here awaiting trial for joint smashing, died I today at Lewisburg, Kan. When Mrs. j Nation received the telegram today stat- ing that her brother was dying and ask- ing her to come to his bedside, her at- torney and former bondsmen went to the jail with the consent of the county attorney to arrange for her temporary release. She quarreled with tiiem a 1 dthey returned and held a conference-with the county attorney, at which it was decided that she would not be released. M~s. Nation and her fellow crusaders had been confined in a cell together, but yesterday the sheriff removed her to a cell in the steel rotary, owing to her inability to agree with the other smashers.

Trottars of Renown They Es- pecially Predominate—former Prejudice Against White and Black Horses. There are many traditions connected with the color of horses, although as a matter of fact It is of very little consequence, and no rule can be laid down as to any special merit belonging to any. In this age of the world it is needless to say that the color of a horse has nothing to do ; with his constitution. An enthusiastic ; turf writer in the East recently took oc- ; casiqn to look up the winners of the ! Brooklyn handicap and two other events ! for the past ten years for the purpose of ascertaining the color of the successful runners. The predominating color In U-e | Brooklyn was bay, there being six of tha; j I snade to one of brown and three of I ! chestnut. The suburban for tea years iiad as winners four bays, three chestnuts, two blacks and one brown. The Realiza- tion Stakes had five chestnuts, three Days I and two browns. For ten years, then, in | the three events, of winners there vere thirteen bays, eleven chestnuts, four browns and two blacks. As a color bay predominates among horses, and it would be difficult to find a race, either running or trotting, with ten entries that the ex- cess of bays did not amount to at least ,40 per cent. The great racers of England have near- ly all been brown or dark bays, as for in- stance, Lottery, Cadland, Birmingham, , Muley, Molock. Tom Boy, Mango, Lamer- \u25a0 coast, Flying Dutchman, Voltigeur, Shaet Anchor, Weatherbit, Beadsman, Rosicru- cian and Beauclere. A most remarkable j change of color, and with It also type, ( has been seen In connection with Hermit, the notable English sire, whose get was . the fashion in England a dozen years ago. j Hermit's sire was a bay horse of a par- ticularly marked bay family, and yet . Hermit was a chestnut, and it is said that he was the only one of that color that his. j dam ever threw. The offsprings of Hler- I mit are chestnuts. He has a score of sons and daughters that have made th-sir mark, among them being Tbebias, Nel- lie. St. Marguerite, Shotover, Trlstai 1, Peter and St. Blaisdel. The merits of these horses have been transmitted regu- larly from generation to generation. It is not a little singular, however, that thrt color of the best of a sort is frequently seen to change completely after a certain number of generations, and that the nc* color is the lasting one and contains the best characteristics of the sort. It i 3 affirmed that horses get one type of ex- cellence, and that is marked by color. That is. if the produce of a certain horse of marked characteristics run to a cai- tain color, that color will represent tnc best of get. and those of another color, the odd one will be no good. Among the trotters of renown the ma- jority are bays. The Afcxbott, 2:03/4. is a bay, as Is Alex. 2:03%; Star Poater, John R. Gentry, Prince Alert, all racers, with records below 2:C3, are bay, whil» .lme Patchen. 2:(f1%, i 3 jet black, with wW-e stockings. Flora Temple, so long queen of the turf, was a bay, and her great compeers, Goidamith Maid. 2:14; St Ju- lian, who first made a record bel>w th« teens, were bays; Maxsy Oofcb, w"bo h_3d the stallion record a dozen years a^D. was a bay, and Ph-allas, who wrested ths championship from h m, is a bay; Cling- j stone, the "trotting machine," was a bay; in short, the fast horses among the bays are legion. Among the rcrd holders of the past, Muud S.. was a chestnut; Sunol, a t>ay; Jay-Eye-See, a black, and Hopeful, a gray. For a long time prejudice attached to a whito horse on account of Che fabulous tradition that they could not stand the cold, because white was a non-conductor of heat. The same tradition existed with regard to black horses, on the othtr extreme: as black Is a conductor of heat, a black horse will succunntb to the enervating heat of summer. The diversity and universality of color in horses, as in other animals, !s a provision of nature, and the cause of It cannot be explained by finite minds. Why there should be more bay horses than gray, more browns than gray, more grays than black Is a problem. No more can it explain why the union of a black s re with a gray dam may result in a chest- nut, brown, black or gray cffaprlng; or I why the union of the same color may \u25a0 \u25a0 \u25a0-\u25a0 - -_ '< I _. , ,;"\u25a0.'\u25a0 , .'" \u25a0 \u25a0'---.. . - . . - . . \/ \u25a0. . \u25a0 \u25a0 \u25a0 J^^l^W^K Matched pairs and single drivers, all young and sound; wiil'Ji ffißSJaliJ^lffi blacks bays, sorrels, and spotted; 36 to 48 Inches high; \u25a0 weights, 215 to 500 pounds; well broken and safe for HI '"':"-^^P[ children to ride 'or drive.

By six- o'clock this evening cur games had been ilni3hert or which each side- • hid scored two The Americans then oflerrd a draw on the two regaining boards.--and hardly had the message been transmitted when a similar offer was received on this side. It tho Englishmen had submitted the game to adjudication they would oroba- bly been awarded the second game and thereby the match.. The play today was very eventful and contrary to ail ex- pectations. The Americans met the first reverse on board Xo. 5. where Hunt, of Princeton, with this thirty-first m«T« on Friday had scaled his fate. His thir- ty-sixth move hastened the catastrbpt-e but even other mows could not have saved his game. The defeat of Perry nad been conceded. Yet. by dint of stoutest iesistance. he deferred the disas- ter, and not until the nfty-sixT.h move did he acknowledge himself beaten. - The two urfirisheo. games were: Falk of Columbia, against Wilos. of Cam- bridge, and Kecrlc-r, of Columbia, against Wright, of Cambridge. Falk had a very good position, which looked bkc a safe draw, but by a care- less use of pawns he com- promised his game an.i had to sacrifice a pawn in order to-prevent .the- hoetllu king from breaking- Into hi« cair.p.

SIR ARTHUR SULLIVAN'S POSTHU-MOUS "THE EMERALD ISLE"
AT THE SAVOY
GPEEA SEEMS A SUCCESS
Mrs. Langtry and Her New Play At-tract the Public— London
Flu y-Hoases Doing;Very Well.
LONDON, April 27.—'The EmeraldIsle," a posthumous work of Sir ArthurSullivan, was produced at the Savoytheater tonight before a briiilant audi-ence. The production showed that SirArthur Sullivan had lost none of hispowers of melody and the opening chorusfully maintained the reputation of thedeceased composer. The comedy partswere well sustained and the operaabounded in humor.
The re-opening of the Savoy and theGrstrrtck theaters tonight leave 3 onlythree West en.l theaters with closeddoors. Mosr of the playhouses are do-ing remarkably well. /The greatest suc-cess of the moment is'undoubtedly Mrs.liangtry'a new play at her new theater.No playhouse In London equals the Im-pi'rir.l in prettiness and goo,l taste, whilethe series of pictures of Paris and Ver-sailles is staged with a completeness andrichness unsurpassed, though the j lay it-self is considered by critics not to beworth much.
Next in interest to Mrs. Langtry Is as-suredly Etina May, and desp te the marksof disapproval which were manifested inBorne parts of the house at the first per-formance of "The Girl From Up There"and the generally cool criticisms, people
are crowding to the Duke of York thea-ter. The nightly advance sales amountto over £3.000. The disturbance on theopening night is a danger to all Americanproductions here and one for which over-zealous Americans themselves are respon-sible. The American colony in Londonand American visitors generally are in-tensely loyal to their own country's pro-ductions and when an American companycomes over they generally fill the theateron the first night and applaud everythingand everybody with lndiscriminat'.ng en-thusiasm. This produces the lmpres-son of an organized clique, interrupts theperformance and unduly prolongs it by
encores not desired by the rest of theaudience. \u25a0" ~\VJ
If American managers in London couldinduce their supporters to be more dis-creet In their expressions of partiality enfirst nights, they would have no more dif-ficulties with the pit and the gallery.
Charles Frohman had another financialand artistic success "Wednesday, whenhe produced "Sweet and Twenty" at theVaudeville theater, with Ellean Terrissand Seymour Hicks in the cast. Capt.
Hood's play is generally acknowledged tobe one of the most charming little loveplays here in a long time.• Gertrude Elliott plays here for the firsttime since her marriage. The produc-tion 'of "Count Tezma" at the Comedytheater is generally condemned.
LOST IN A CAVE.Estill, V«., Laid Wuudcra Many Days
Under Ground.MIDDLESBORO, Ky., April 27.—One
Week ago Tuesday Charley Raymond,aged twelve, disappeared from his homeat Estill, Va., some twenty or more milesfrom here In the country. His disappear-ance was as mysterious as if the earthhad swailowed him, which, in truth,proved to be the case, as he had wan-dered into a cave and become lost. Char-lew was forbidden to enter the cave,which is on the Raymond homestead, andruns back a short distance into the moun-tains. But a week ago he disobeyed hisparents, and, when no one was looking,took a lantern and went into the cavern,bent on exploration. Becoming frighten-ed he tried to go out, but lost his way.His efforts only took him further andfurther from the cave's mouth. Presently'he stumbled into a hole, breaking his lan-tern, and" became unconscious. He hadstarted on his exploring trip in the af-ternoon, and his absence was not misseduntil late in the day. A search was madeat once. Failing to find him about thehouse the family came to the conclusionthat he had gone with his brother tothis place, where his uncle lives. Hisbrother had started In the afternoon, andthe little fellow had begged to go withhim. Sunday, when he came home with-out Charley, the Raymonds becamefrantic. All the neighbors were roused,and for two days and nights a searchwas kept up. The cave was the lastplace thought of. The lad was found ashort distance from its mouth, nearlydead. He had taken two or three biscuitswith him when he started, but these hadbeen eaten the first day. Since then nota morsel of food had passed his lips, al-though water was to be found in abund-ance in the cave. He bruised himselfbadly by the fall, and by running roundhis small prison trying to get out of thehole. The cave was warm, and he suf-fered little from the recent cold snap
After being taken out he was deliriousfor hours.

The assets of the firm havenot yet been made known, but it is ba-lleved they are sufficient to meet all theliabilities. Other failures are expected
and their cause is attributed to the strin-gency of money. This was Che reason ofSenor Argueso's failure. Bankers hereestimate the per capita, circula.ton ofmoney in Porto Rico at about $2.

LONDON, April 27.—A1l accounts agreethat Emperor William thoroughly enjoyshimself at Bonn, and, among the an-cients of his old corps, he became a stu-dent again. The emperor wore the\u25a0white cap and across his breast the bla.kand whte rifobon of the Bjrussia corps.His majesty himself took command atthe symposium. issued orders in a firmtone and led off the so-called saiaman-ders, the thunderous rattling of beermugs on the table, when the lead.ng toastwas proposed. Ha also joined heartily\u25a0with a loud voice in singing students'songs, bringing down the flat of hisrapier in th^ orthodox fashion witih acrash on the table at the end of ca^hverse. The proceedings reached a cli-max wlien his majesty called for thatgrandest of "German student songs,"Landesvater" ("Father of the Coun-try)." One of the verses in which thestudents swear to live or die for kingand country, tach man crosses his rapisrwith that of the man opposite him andcaps are taken off and spkted on the ra-pier points, the crown prince crossed ra-piers with the aged Yon Loew, hknselfan old Borussier.
At another part of the proceedings, atwhich the emperor with great pleasurewas calling up the former corps students,some of aged men, so that their healthmight be drunk in the order of the yearsthey studied, the emperor called for asalamander for a blind old laywer, HerrLuff, father of the dramatist, JosephLuff, who usually under his majesty'sdirections produces a new historicaldrama at Wiesbaden, illustrating theachievements of the house of Hohenzol-lern. Later, Joined by the students, hecalled out "Our Youngest Fox," the slangnickname of the youngest student. Theemperor laughed heartily, and, clappingthe crown prince on the shoulder, said:
"Hoenst dv das? Er meint uich." (Doyou understand that? He mean's you.)
There was another humorous incidentwhen one of the veterans in reply to thetoast to the men of his year, drank to thecanal bill and expressed tha hope that theold fellows of Berlin might at last real-ize that the canal must be -built. Tlieemperor lay back in his chair and laugh-
ed loud and long.
An interesting story is told of a sur-prise night visit paid by Emperor Williamto the training ship Charlotte, while atKiel.
The ship was anchored in mid-ocean,when the guard espied the emperor'spinnacle approaching and, a momentlater the emperor was on deck, much tothe surprise of the hastily-awakenedcaptain. His majesty then began arigorous inspection of the ship. In thedormitory he was astonisihed to find thecadets asleep under the glare of electriclights."I scarcely believe they are asleep un-
der such a light," said the emperor."They are tired after their day's wo.-k,"
replied the captain. "They would sleepanywhere."
The emperor was still skepfcal, shooka sleeping cadet soundly and awokehim.
"So," said his majesty, "you s'.eep aswell here as at home?"
The cadet, recognizing his questioner,promptly replied:
"Better, your majesty."The emperor was much gratified at the
answer he received and returned to hisown ship, delighted with hi3experiment.
TOAST TO SAKE-WEIMAR.At Eisenach, at a banquet at the cas-
tle this evening, Emperor William, re-sponding to a toast to his health, pro-posed by the Grand Duke Wilhelm Er-nest, after alluding to the many ties in-dissolubly uniting the house of Hohen-zollern and Weimar, said:
"Saxe-Weimar has had a great sharein the development of the empire, forin the fearful period when the father-land lay prostrate the great spirits ofWeimar saved us by inspiring in thepeople the spirit that prepared a newfatherland. Your royal highness is thetrustees of a great oallad urn, a palladiumof science, a palladium of ideas, in whichthe German fatherland, German poetry
and German strength Is so rich. Now(raising his glass). I drink not only to
federal prince, but also to the protector oftraditions, whom we have to thank forour intellectual wealth—his royal high-
ness, the grand duke, hurrah, hurrah,hurrah!"

STUDY OP IT AS APPLIED TO THESTAKE WIMEKS AND THOR-
GUGHBIUSDiS
BAYS EXCEED OTHER COLORS
In. Trottars of Renown They Es-pecially Predominate—former
Prejudice Against Whiteand Black Horses.
There are many traditions connectedwith the color of horses, althoughas a matter of fact It is ofvery little consequence, and norule can be laid down as to anyspecial merit belonging to any. In thisage of the world it is needless to say thatthe color of a horse has nothing to do
; with his constitution. An enthusiastic; turf writer in the East recently took oc-; casiqn to look up the winners of the! Brooklyn handicap and two other events! for the past ten years for the purpose of
ascertaining the color of the successfulrunners. The predominating color In U-e
| Brooklyn was bay, there being six of tha; jI snade to one of brown and three of I! chestnut. The suburban for tea years iiad
as winners four bays, three chestnuts,two blacks and one brown. The Realiza-tion Stakes had five chestnuts, three Days
I and two browns. For ten years, then, in |the three events, of winners there verethirteen bays, eleven chestnuts, fourbrowns and two blacks. As a color baypredominates among horses, and it wouldbe difficult to find a race, either runningor trotting, with ten entries that the ex-cess of bays did not amount to at least
,40 per cent.The great racers of England have near-
ly all been brown or dark bays, as for in-stance, Lottery, Cadland, Birmingham,, Muley, Molock. Tom Boy, Mango, Lamer-
\u25a0 coast, Flying Dutchman, Voltigeur, ShaetAnchor, Weatherbit, Beadsman, Rosicru-cian and Beauclere. A most remarkable
j change of color, and with It also type,( has been seen In connection with Hermit,the notable English sire, whose get was. the fashion in England a dozen years ago.
j Hermit's sire was a bay horse of a par-ticularly marked bay family, and yet
. Hermit was a chestnut, and it is said thathe was the only one of that color that his.
j dam ever threw. The offsprings of Hler-I mit are chestnuts. He has a score of sonsand daughters that have made th-sirmark, among them being Tbebias, Nel-lie. St. Marguerite, Shotover, Trlstai 1,
Peter and St. Blaisdel. The merits ofthese horses have been transmitted regu-
larly from generation to generation. Itis not a little singular, however, that thrtcolor of the best of a sort is frequentlyseen to change completely after a certainnumber of generations, and that the nc*
color is the lasting one and contains thebest characteristics of the sort. It i 3affirmed that horses get one type of ex-cellence, and that is marked by color.That is. if the produce of a certain horseof marked characteristics run to a cai-tain color, that color will represent tncbest of get. and those of another color,the odd one will be no good.
Among the trotters of renown the ma-jority are bays. The Afcxbott, 2:03/4. is abay, as Is Alex. 2:03%; Star Poater, JohnR. Gentry, Prince Alert, all racers, withrecords below 2:C3, are bay, whil» .lmePatchen. 2:(f1%, i3 jet black, with wW-estockings. Flora Temple, so long queenof the turf, was a bay, and her greatcompeers, Goidamith Maid. 2:14; St Ju-lian, who first made a record bel>w th«teens, were bays; Maxsy Oofcb, w"bo h_3dthe stallion record a dozen years a^D.was a bay, and Ph-allas, who wrested thschampionship from h m, is a bay; Cling-
j stone, the "trotting machine," was abay; in short, the fast horses among thebays are legion. Among the rcrdholders of the past, Muud S.. was achestnut; Sunol, a t>ay; Jay-Eye-See, ablack, and Hopeful, a gray. For a longtime prejudice attached to a whito horseon account of Che fabulous tradition thatthey could not stand the cold, becausewhite was a non-conductor of heat. Thesame tradition existed with regard toblack horses, on the othtr extreme: asblack Is a conductor of heat, a blackhorse will succunntb to the enervatingheat of summer.
The diversity and universality of colorin horses, as in other animals, !s aprovision of nature, and the cause of Itcannot be explained by finite minds. Whythere should be more bay horses thangray, more browns than gray, more graysthan black Is a problem. No more canit explain why the union of a black s rewith a gray dam may result in a chest-nut, brown, black or gray cffaprlng; or
I why the union of the same color may
