only jii6t learried of Sunol's wonderful feat,
1 ain expcoting a dtapateh to arrive from
Charle* Mnrvin, Senator l>land Stanfoxd's trainer
it haa ptobabip bom detayed. Ifsad B. made
a mile in 188". in 2:08 3-4. Tliis was beaton to?
dav by anotber liorse of mine in 2:08 1-4. I ani
naturully proutl to have l>ecn the aWBCI of the

Vaodtrbill for Maod s. Baool was ibxcc years
old two years a^o, when she made a ICOOfd
of '2:lo |.| at San Fraticisco.
"A week ago to-day she tiottcd in 2,10, breaJdnfl
her awn reeonl.
" When bhe was fonr years old she made half a
mile in 1 :02 1-2".
" She haa now beaten all reeorda for flve years
and haa heuteti the world's reeord. I do BOt
thiak that Sunol's performnneo haa eqnalletl
Maod S.'s Hest time, for the icaaofl
that Sunol trotted on a kite
shaped traek, while Mand S7s work was done on
a rezulation traek. I think that Sunol, with a
little training, will be able to i)eat Maud S.'.s beat
time on a rezulation traek. I intended to have
the mare DTOUfht liere in Novcinber, hut now I
h'uall leave her in t'alifornia until she haa time
to lower her reeord. Her time ifi the fastest ever
made on any tr^ek.
"Her time, 2:10 1-27 as a three-year
old, was the hest ever made bf a
trotting norse at that age. Axtell, a
faiuoub thrce-vcar-old waa beaten 1 1-2 K"eo<ids,
or about *i\tv leet, hv Sunol. Sunol it? just
?tting into abape. She has lately lowered her
