8 AMONG M HORSES, Some Timely Suggestions as to How to Handle Young Trotters. Shorter Races- and Dashes Recommended to Be Substituted. Capt. T. B. Marrett's Breeding Stock Farm—Nutwood Mambrino. Masterlode, Jr., to be Sent to Michigan for the Com ing Season. II ILK the breeders' stake races at the last State Fair were not interesting nor a drawing card for the public, they are of much importance to the stock pro ducing interest of the state. As yet Minnesota is young in the business anil it will not be ex pected that she will develop one, two and three-year-olds to compete with Kentucky and Cali- forma youngsters in speed and endur ance for some time to come. We already can boarst of some as fast ami well bred as can be found, tut the percentage is so small in comparison to the old and famous producing states that we appear rather insignificant. People who sit in the grand stand are not interested in seeing two, three and four-year-olds trot in three minutes. They have seen or heard of the Kentucky and Cali fornia youngsters trotting in 2:30, and in rare cases in 2:20. Owing to the shortness of our trotting seasons we are unable to give the youngsters enough judicious work to fit them to go mile heats at a great rate of speed, it requires much time with careful handling to get speed with sufficient endurance to keep that speed up in a hotly contested race of heats. In countries .where colts can be handled the year round, both speed and endurance can be had at an early age. in Minnesota the handling season begins in May and ends the Ist of Octo ber. Colls, like children, are subject to all the catching ailments, and it is a rare ease lor one. two. and three-year olds even during this short training sea son to escape all the various maladies they are liable to have. Should one get the pink-eye, bronchial affection or dis temper of any kind, at least one-fourth of the time is lost for his education be fore he can again lie put in training. One, two or three payments have already been made in the stakes, hut owing to distemper, shortness of train ing season and mile heats to be trotted. you are quite certain the youngster can not be conditioned to trot such a race with credit to himself or his sire, conse quently the colt is withdrawn. LET USBHOKTKX THE DISTANCE. As we are unable to make the train ing season of sufficient length to condi tion our youngsters for long, hard and fast contests, let us shorten the distance and work one, two and three-year-olds exclusively for speed. The seasons here are long enough to get speed into youngsters, but too short to develop speed and at the same time expect them to carry a high rate in a bruising race of beats. It requires a long and careful preparation to condition any horse to trot heat races when they are asked to go fast from wire to wire. This being the case with horses already fast, it cer tainly is a mistake to compel young sters to learn to go fast and keep going at a high rate for Jong distances in latitudes where the handling seasons are short. At the next annual meeting of the trotting and pacing horse breed ers this matter should be freely and fully discussed. Let them see to it that the Minnesota colts are given a chance to make a creditable showing. Make the distances to bo trotted, for yearlings, a half-mile dash; for two-year olds, a mile dash; for three-year olds, a mile and repeat. Bring these youngsters along gradually. Speed them short dis tances, and never keep them on tip-toe all the way around the track unless you are out for the money. Commence at an early hour to educate, but don't ask both speed and endurance. Later on you will get endurance and other quali ties requisite in the kind of a trotter or pacer that is a drawing card and inter ests the occupants of the grand stand. Daxtox. The Fair view Farm. Thomas B. Marrett, one of St. Paul's well-known business men, has com menced the foundation for one of the very best stock farms in the state of Minnesota. It is not a monstrously large one. but it will be fitted up with all the modern appliances, and in the most complete style, for the purpose of breeding and raising trotting horses ami Shorthorn and Jersey cattle. He has given to this farm the name of '-Fair-view." It is located sixteen miles south of St. Paul, on the lowa & Min nesota division of the Milwaukee & St. Paul, between Rosemount and Farm ington, and consists of 320 acres. The old stage road from St. Paul to Farm ington forms the western boundary of it. the road running to Hastings forms the south boundary, the road running on the north side of it goes towards Hastings, and, connecting with the old Dodd road, runs to St. Paul. The farm is a rolling prairie and is under cultiva tion. It is all seeded to clover, blue grass and timothy except 125 acres. It is one of the oldest and best farms in Dakota county, and has been under cultivation for a long time. It is on this beautiful and attractive farm that Mr. .Marrett has commenced the breed ing of trotting stock and cattle. The buildings are large and commodious, suitable for present purposes, and will be increased as may be necessary here after. Mr. Marrett has. already ex pended a large ameunt of money in fitting up the farm and erecting suitable buildings for breeding purposes. His cattle, both shorthorns and Jerseys, are standard bred and of the most fashion able families. HIS STABLE. At the head of his stud is the three year-old son of the great Nutwood, Nut wood-Mambrino. He is by Nutwood out of Zither, by Woodford Mam bri no: second dam Tulip, dam of Ulva, 2:27, by Alexander's Abdullah; third dam Madam Dudley, dam of Sue Dudley, 2:32%, and Mambrino Dudley, 2:2o>£, by Bashaw. Nutwood Mambrino is a grand looking animal, three years old next June, sixteen hands high, weighs 1,185 pounds, and like his sire is a hand some chestnut. He is very high behind and stands on as good legs as were ever nut under any animal. He is high headed and looks like business all over. When he moves it is with a long, easy winging stride, and in every respect he bears with him'the appearance ot being a trotter. Cant. Marrett has also just bought Lou Wilkes, a yearling, and will soon have him here.. He will also go into the stud after next year. Lou Wilkes is by Lumps, 2:21, by George Wilkes. The dam of Lou Wilkes was by Mambrino Patchen; second dam by Clifton Pilot, by Pilot, after .which comes the thoroughbred.. He "has twenty-three standard bred brood mares by such sires as Alley West. Swigert, Hamlet, Contractor, Pioneer. Stocking Chief, Alexander and Administrator: also Capitola,:. seven years- old, with a five-year-old record of 2:24.^; Annie West, with a three-year-old : record of 2:40, with trials in 2:20. Mr. Marrett has started out.-in. the* right way. He proposes to have nothing but the best on his farm, and consequently has com menced with'--., nothing but the best.* to which he will add hereafter such |ani .eoals as he deems judicious. v ■■-.' , Local Horse Notes. . :\,; Cnpt.

Mr. Blackwood, the man in charge of these mares, will bring back with him the black colt Lou Wilkes, by Lumps, by George Wilkes, that (.'apt. Marrett bought in Ken tucky several mouths ago. The trotter gelding Dixie, that has been campaigning through Dakota -bo success fully under the management of George p. Smith, has just been brought home in line shape. Humor has it ihal Mr. Smith is ne gotiating a sale of this trotter. He got a record of 2:37, but can trot a mile close to 2:30. He belongs to T. B. Marrett. Mr. Smith has also sold Dictator Prince, by Prince Dictator, to a gentleman in Maryland. He isa large and handsome hay colt, with lots of promise, and is intended" for a stall ion, to be used in the county of Cecil. Ben Woodmans.ee. well-known to all the horsemen in the Northwest, and formerly superintendent of Commodore Kittson's stables at Midway, has gone down into In diana with his w"ife to visit the "old folks at home." They will be absent two or. three weeks. Last spring Charlie Radcliff bought the dam of Lillian, and on the Bth of October she dropped a filly. He has also purchased Kate Lindley, by Thorndale. dam by Seelv's Amer ican Star. Mr. ltadcliff will, in a few days, send Masterlode, Jr., to Michigan. Charlie Radcliff has sold to W. L. McGrath a yearling filly by Masterlode, Jr.. dam by Brutus Clay. Miscellaneous. A filly from the blue grass country has sud denly Hashed out as a wonder. It "is a two year-old by Abdullah Mambrino. and belongs to J. W. Wright, of Bowling. Ky. She was taken from the pasture on July 24, and forty-two days later won the two-year-old stakes in Bowling Green. A week after she did the same in Eli/abelhtown. and pulled double in 2:18 on a bad half-mile track. The filly is a deep hay, 15 hands high, possessing a long, blood-like neck, wears no boots or weights, and trotted a quarter in 38 seconds with less than two months' breaking. Her name is Soto. ../-.. .*.-;-. The Wilkes stallion Walsingham, from the R. S. Veech Indian Hill farm, near Louis ville, Ky.. has be* sold to Messrs. 11. K. Calif & Co.. Monticello. 111.

"WHY SO FEW MARRY. . r - A New York Philosopher Gives Two Learned Reasons Why So Many Men Prefer to Remain Single. .-. : ,:" . The Epoch. •'..- ;;-'.{-• ' ' ' ' '"* . Two principal causes have led to the decline in matrimony among fashiona ble or would-be fashionable circles in New York, and to a less, though still to a considerable, degree in some of the other large cities. The first is the in creased comforts and diminished ex penses of bachelor life; the second is the over-worship to which Aye have, ac customed our women. ■'*» - ~r* The avidity with which suites were' secured in the first bachelor apartment house built in New York soon led to the erection of a large number of similar structures. In these writes of two, three or more rooms can be had at a cost little exceeding what a man used to have to pay for one large furnished room in a well-situated lodging house. Some of these houses have restaurants attached, and in others the occupants can arrange with the janitor for the supply of a light breakfast. The Dumber of' clubs has increased almost proportionately; with that of the apartment houses. At his club the member finds an amount of comfort, often of luxury, that only an enormously rich man could furnish for himself. Here he can dine or lunch at a price which little more than covers the cost of the provisions. Many of the clubs have sleeping rooms over the pub lic ones, and thus offer exceptional ad vantages to bachelors. '•• -;''-'_ '■ A single man, with an income of «, --500 to §2,000 a year, can live well and dress well. If properly started, he can have an unlimited amount of social gayety, and an occasional bouquet or a honbonniere at Christmas is all the re turn he is expected to make for the in numerable hospitality received. Now, supposing that he is sufficiently in love with some girl to be willing to surrender the greater portion of his little comforts to the desire to make her his wife, is he likely to find her willing to accept him? Most probably not! And if she should accept him, have her edu cation and training been such as" to make her a helpmate lo him? Again the an swer is negative. In considering the wherefore of these negatives, the second principal cause, before stated, is natur ally reached. ■The society, young lady wants to be gin her married life on the same scale as that on which her parents are ending theirs. Her parents pet and indulge her in every way. her bachelor friends adore her, and she receives almost as much worship as did a goddess in the days of Greece and Home. Very proba bly she is pretty, highly educated, ac complished, bright and attractive—a de lightful partner for a dance or a flirta tion, and very likely, an excellent wife for an extremely rich man. But ask her to come down from her pedestal, to be the helpmeet of a man of modern means, to cut herself loose from the acquaint ances that can only be kept up while she is wealthy, to share in his struggles, and to rise or sink with him.and she will, most likely, politely and firmly refuse. It is difficult to foresee what the rem edy for this state of affairs will be. NOTED FRENCH CRIMINALS. Where They Are and What They Do—Prison Life at Noumea. Loudon Telegraph. .".". ' ' ■:■'■■ .-;.'-,-i. ■'-'-IC An interesting account of the.present status of notorious French criminals in New Caledonia has been furnished by an official who has just, returned from that penal colony. The; most respect able as'well as the senior of all the con victs is Berezovski, the Pole who fired at the Emperor Alexander 11, during the Paris exhibition of 1867. ■ Frequent applications have been made for the lib eration of Berezovski. but they have all been refused. He is now hi' the island of Nou, where lie occupies a little room apart from all the bad characters, and has even a small garden for himself. ■ He roams about the island,. which is one-fourth of the size of Paris, at his own sweet will, and his conduct lias al ways been irreproachable. He receives a large quantity of newspapers, books and pamphlets from different countries by every mail. Berezovski is how- old and feeble to an extreme degree. Of a different' class are Gilles'aiid"Abadie,' the murderers of the Paris grocer Leeerele. These worthies ah* employed as street scavengers at Noumea, and their occupation is looked.upon by.their companions in penal servitude as a good one. for it is easy, and also enables them to pick up bits of tobacco and various odds and ends, including- .occasional aims. Pel, . who poisoned ills servant at' Montreuil, and then burned her remains" in a stove, died in the beginning of the year, as well as Moyaux, who murdered his own daughter..

I lover of his wife into an ambush at 1 Oitatou and then murdered him- in a most atrocious manner. The criminal has passed through the various cate gories until be arrived among the first class convicts. He has a share in a farm which he and his wife superintend, and he has under his orders some of the lower class of criminals. His life sen tence has been commuted to one of twenty years. The doctor who was condemned last year for having sent poisoned game to a colleague is giving satisfaction in the colony and hopes to be able to attain the privileges accorded to Fenayrou. On the whole, the edu cated criminals, even those who are un dergoing sentences for serious crimes, are highly spoken of by the governor of Noumea, and the most unmitigated rascals are the Paris gamins and the brutish peas ants or laborers, most of whom are mur ders. Every year a certain number of these has to be shot down by the ward ers. The official who uses his revolver against the convicts is tried as a formal ity by a courtniartial and acquitted; The number of convicts '■ is 010,000 or more, and there are in addition 240 fe male convicts who, however, were sent out to Noumea of their own accord from the liaison Centrale, of Paris, for the purpose of marrying first-class misde meanants. These women are supervised by nuns. There are on the island 000 warders. The number of first-class con victs amount to 1,000, and some of them, like Fenayrou, have been allowed to send for their wives. The state fur nishes them with agricultural imple ments, food, and even a few head of cattle, when they are permitted to begin, farming, and they generally contrive to do well. Another class, apart from all the others, is composed of skilled trades men- and mechanics, musicians, and even actors. These have a savings bank of their own, a kind of club, and are almost too prosperous for convicts. The bandsmen are said to be as good as many regimental performers, and they play programmes of select music before the governor's mansion twice a week, besides giving occasional concerts. From this it will be seen that the life of many convicts is far better than that which is led by thousands in the slums of Paris, and it is no wonder that such being the case numerous transgressors against the law of the land, including those who commit the most terrible crimes, should view with longing and delight their despatch to New Caledo nia by the clement mandate of the president of the republic. CHARITY KIT'S MUNIFICENCE. A Yellowstone Medicine Man Who is Astonishing the South Caio lina Darkies. The colored people, of Columbia, S. C, (and, in fact, many of the white peo ple' are intensely excited ovei the ex traordinary advertising methods of Yel lowstone Kit, the millionaire medicine man, who created such a furor in Flor ida last winter. Friday is the day which this prince of medicine denominates his '•charity day," when, as he announces, he "heals the sick, feeds the hungry , and clothes the naked" free of charge. About 1,000 darkies and poor whites, coming from twenty and thirty miles in the surrounding country, flocked to the city the other day to attend Kit's open air entertainment, listen to his, har angues and partake of his bounty.' At the conclusion of his entertain ment in the afternoon Kit called upon all those who were unable to work or were in need to come forward and make •known their wants. Within an hour he and his assistants distributed from his stand, to deserving persons, 1,500 loaves of bread, 2,000 cakes and crack ers, 25 hams, 200 pounds of bacon and 230 yards of calico and white * cloth. In the same manner he gave away to ex tremely poor people $84 in cash, in sums ranging from 5 to SO cents, according to the necessities of the recipients." After this the sick, lame, etc., were invited to repair to Kit's medical and surgical in stitute, where 700 of them were exam ined, treated and furnished medicine free of charge by Kit's corps of physi cians and surgeons. The negroes fairly worship him.* They declare that he "has been sent by God," that he "must be a second Jesus Christ," etc.. and his name is mentioned by the more ig norant with as much awe and reverence as is that of the deity. Kit has made many friends among the leading citi *-zens and has been profuse in private contributions to churches and other ; worthy objects of charity. The Business for the Boy.
