trot, a mile in quicker time, or he snav put Edwid Forrest on his mettle to bea't aiiv time yet made. A Herald reporter asked Mr. Bon-., iter whether, he thought tlie record contained the tallest time that could be made in a mile track? “I do not think so,” replied Mr. Bonner, emphatically, “for the rea son- that I have timed Rarus triv- . self In - 2-on a ihree-qnarter track. I consider Rarus a faster hoive than sit. Jnlieu, and I think that nearly all experienced horse men will tell you the Baffle thing.— The record will possibly yet be lowered to 2:06,2:07or 2:08.’ Some horsemen think that two minutes will be reached, but I hardly ex pect that. Rarus, I am confident, can trot a mile on a mile traek in 2:10 or better. I am limited on my farm to a three-quarter track. “When Rady Suffolk trotted in 2:20^, or Flora Temple in 2:19^, it was thought that the record could not be beaten. There was the same opiniou about Dexters trotting in 2and I may say here that there arc horsemen who think, bis equal iias never been foaled. “Eight or ten years ago, ho tr over, tracks were not planned as iovel as billiard tables, toe weights were unknown, aucl instead of for ty-eight and fifty pound sulkies, they had sulkies weighing seventy- live to eighty. Now the fastest mile to wagpn was that made by Edwin - Forrest in 2:15^, and al though I paid $16,000 for him, he wouldn’t have been worth $500 without toe weights. To-day I wouldn’t take $50,000 for him, a9 I consider him the greatest wagon horso in the world. Maud S. wouldn't probably have been worth $■>00 without too weights cither. When Mr. Vanderbilt bought her he wouldn’t use them;*but Maud £. couldn’t go faster than an ordinary road horse without them, anil now she trots with too weights. “As to the lighter sulkies we have to-day, we arc getting the trotting record so near down to running time that every pound tells. Take two thoroughbred horses in England, worth, for speed, 3,000 and 2,OtKJguineas respectively. Put twen ty pounds more weight, on the for mer thau bn tbs latter, and the 2,- 000-guinea horse will beat his higher priced rival. As we have ten hor ses to-day that can beat 2:20 for one that could beat it before the intro duction of ton weights. X believe we shall have still greater improve ments that will materially reduce tha record.” “From what stock is the finest trotting performance likely to be obtained?” “We want a great infusion Gf thoroughbred blood.

King sank to the ground without a groan, and the men who were with him fled perclpUately. The crowd scattered np Trade street, and tite wildest confusmjn followed. The men were aft-aid to approach the infuriated animal, and King was allowed to remain several minutes on the ground where he had fallen. The elephant surveyed the scene for an instant, gave a short snori, and started at a brisk pace up, the railroad track. As soon as he was oat of reach King was picked up, apparently lifeless, and conveyed, across the street to Ferry Morehead’s barber: shop, where several doctors were summoned. In the meantime the elephant kept on the track* and the report getting abroad that he was loose in the streets, the excitement- increas ed. The crowd which first collect ed about the crossing and the door of the shop into which King had been’ carried scattered op the street* and all sorts of reports were afloat, no one being able, on account of the darkness, to determine the where abouts of the elephant.

She said that she was not nor ever had been her father’s favorite daughter, but acknowledged that h$ thought a good deal of her, and prefaced thi3 statement with another to the effect that he loved all his children. She spoke of her father’s property, and told ho w he had left all his wives and children substantial legacies. She said.that by right they should have received about $75,000 each, or at least $60,000 apiee, but they had reccivedjjonly $21,000 each. The ex ecutors of her father’s estate bad brought about this change iu the will at a private meeting held dur ing the late hour of the night, and the great amount that should have gone to them was taken away from the real heirs and given to tb$ church. Seven of the heirs rebelled against the way the MONEY WAS DIVIDED, and entered suits which brought them $10,000 each, on a compromise.

There was not a WEAK OR SIKLY one among the lot, and all were pos sessed of a goodly amount of intel ligence.

An attempt, was made to drive them on, but they refused to go and the expedient of allowing them to drink wa3 resort ed to. Iu the movements about the pump the chains became entangled, and the three began to move round and round, drawing them gradual ly together. “Chiefs” temper was again aroused, and he began to bel low. The wild, weird noise threw panic into the crowd, and there was confosed retreat Finally, by^ the vigorous use of goads • and pitch forks, the three elephants were made to take their respective places, and the slow movement towards the tents was continued. At last they were gotteu there, and were secure ly fastened, but the excitement con tinued for hours afterwards.
