Ther la .lwayo tfHHoultr tn arrivingt a orflnlte cenolflflOB M to th quality
of thoroughbred, of different periods,ond no person cmn with any degree ofamir toy classify th champions of pastnnil present. Th best we can hope forIn to p:eo the best animals of the dlf-fri-- nl
prlod and tell of some of thepcTu tniHiices which made them so highlyregnrled by racegoers of their time.
Clus tins been defined as a qualitytlwt makes some animate eTCel Its fellows In deeds of speed, strength, skill orcotirnge, or which combines nil of theseattributes, and It Is a term which Isused more In connection with the racingof thoroughbreds than In any othersport, Two animals may have the samconformation, may bo equally well bredand trained to the same degree of perfectlon. yet one will always excel theother when the test which calls for everyIan atom of effort Is applied. It Is thenthat "class" a really Indefinable qual-ity comes Into pliy. Perhaps the heartIs the seat of this most desirable quallfl.ration, nnd It Is tlio horse which strug-gles on and will not accept defeat whllollfi? lasts which conquers In a majorityof hard fought battles.
At any rate, whatever It Is and fromwhnnre It comes we recognlxe It and m
all those which possess It In thesuperlative degree, and when they passIt on to future generations the buildingof mere monuments Is pr.ilse all toofeeble for these remarkable animalswhose prepotency has excited the admi-ration of liorso breeders the world over.
The comparison of the stars of thpast with those of the present by theapplication of the time test would be
ns tho courses of our day arenot as deep as those over which thehorses of, say, twenty-nv- o years .agomere asked to race. If n track didn'thiive an abundance of "cushion" at thattime It was regarded as unsafe, and themile of Tin Hrocclt In l:33a; wa re.garded as the limit of speed attltat distance when the record was made.Nowadays any maiden which cannot ne.gotlato the distance, In time equal to thatof the ron of Phaeton stands a goodchance of remaining a maiden for an In-
definite period.
Mark on Hot Day,When Salvator ran a mile over the
straight course at Monmouth Park In1:35 twenty-si- x years ago that greathorse was at the zenith of his powers.He had only 110 pounds up, and MartinBergen, who had the mount, let the bigson of Prince Charlie run all the war,The day was perfect for fast time-w- arm
and humid and the sap flowedfrom Salvator In rivulets of crystal whileMatt liyrnes tightened the girths prepar-atory to putting the jockey up. It istrue that theie was a bungle In the se-
lection of u pacemaker, as the filly thatwas sent out to carry the big chestnut
long the last half mile did not havenough to pick him up nnd he finished
alone. Salvator, however, was a freorunning horse and the exhibition, whichwas arranged by Mr. Withers himself,was a great attraction.
There are many men alive y andIn tho full possession of their facultieswho saw Salvator's trial. Many of themwould be willing to wager heavily thatRoaioer, for example, with 110 poundstip aeid over a straight course of theresiliency of Aqueduct, could beat Salva-tor's time considerably. Yet none ofthem with Salvator In the flesh and thedusky Isaac Murphy In the saddle woulddream of backing the gelding to lowertho colors of Mr. Hagglns's champion at
--Ji mile and a quarter.Time ever has been regarded as n
fiHacleus test. Tet It la the medium bywhich 'Americana In the preparation oftheir horses are guided. In England andOther Continental countries the tent ofhorse against horse la applied, and thaneophyto Is asked to try conclusionswith a warrior that has won his spurs Inactual contest. If a "morning glory,"aa tha animal which can run fast whenalone ta termed, develops abroad Itdoesn't cost hla atalble anything to learntha facta,
ICIaarstam Brata Dr. Haabroock.Mora than twenty-fiv- e years ago there
was a sprinter racing at the Easterncourses known aa Dr. llasbrouck. Hewas a son of the Australian air SirKodred and could run six furlongs with
i his weight up In 1 :14, In those days'that was something few horses could ac- -compllah. At the same time the Dwyerbrothers, then In the heyday of theircareer, had In their barn a mighty race-horse named Kingston. This horse, aauperb son of Spendthrift and the Stock-nre- ll
dam Xapanga, was started In allmanner of races from five furlongs up tog rnlla an'd three-quarter- s, and his flightof speed waa known to be remarkable.When Dr. Hasbrouck was winning raceotter race turf followers were hoping:hat an artnt could be arranged thatwould bring tha fliers together. Huih
' D. Mclntyre, tha Brooklyn Jockey Club'sable aeoretary, put a race on the
tor Oraveaend and one brightSeptember day thousand journeyed tothe oourao to what they supposedwould bo tho fastest six furlongs thataver waa run. Kingston carried Dr. Has-brouck a'dtaay first quarter of a mile andgalloped home alone. It waa an admir-able object lesson In "class," and was soregarded at th time. Th time for therace waa much slower than 1 :le . King-'to- n
was a mighty racehorse, and If kentfor eprlntlng exclusively would haveBeen a phenomenon.
Thero In no better Judge of a thorough-bred or hla speed than the veteran
)tralner, John Hugglne, who raced qua-rter liorsos In his youth throughout theBout ti and southwest. He afterwardtrained The Bard and many other Erent
.Iiorses In this country, and wound up hiior.Cirablo career In England by winningthe Derby nnd other classics for Messrs..lyirlllanl nnd Whitney, He saw tho fast-est sprinters In England when thev 'werent their best. During one of his visits tothe United States the question of the
peed of English racehorses rame up, andthe ntniM of Eager, Itoyal Flush and
I others that were prominent at that timewere mentioned.
"Are nmy faster than Kingston wasat 3"'!a hextT somebody asked,
Without a moment's hesitation Hug--clna replied! "No, and I never saw abone that was faster than Kingston."
Yet mighty as Kingston was he livedIn the shadow of Hanover, a horse thatoouM boat bub over a dlitanco of

ground. Hanover waa great on the racecourse, but mightier still In the atud.Kingston and Hanover were wholty un-like. The former was a horse of suchfaultless action that he raced until nineyears of age nnd then retired to thestud as sound as the day he waa born.He could be placed at any spot In arace, and McLaughlin, who rode himwhen he waa at hla best, haa said thathe had the most perfect disposition ofany horse the Dtvyer everowned. Hanover, on t'he other hand, wasan Impetuous rusher that the momentthe flag fell took the lead and gallopedhis opponents groggy. A climbing-enlte- d
horse, the son of Hindoo gave theappearance of laboring,, but no routewas too long for him and hla speed wasremarkable, though for one breathlesseffort It did not approach that of hissoberer stable companion, Kingston.
llannver'a nsaghten Fataoaa.Had this horse lived out the usua)
span In the stud his family would havebeen greater than It Is, but with a lim-ited period at McOrathlana before hhad to be destroyed he founded a clanthat has made turf history here andabroad.
