. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. FIVE MONTHS OLD WEANLING. By Magnet—imp. Chiffie by Prism. dowo. The filly is a low-to-the-grouod piece of racing ma. chinery, with a great shoulder, wonderful depth through the heart, grand bones and an appearance that reminds one of the fleet Btake-winner Ella Boland, which, by the way, is also a daughter of Sam Lucas. Mr. Ed Corrigan, than whom there are few better judges of thoroughbred horseflesh, fancies this filly more than any youngster in the lot, and she is likely to strike many others the same way. Sam Lucas, her eire, is a young hoi se, bat he has already begotten two stake horses in Sam McKeever and Ella Boland. Imp. Chiffie, dam of Luca, was by Prism, one of the fastest horses ever foaled in England, while her dam, imp. Petticoat (dam of Tea Gown and Pettifogger), was by the Derby-winner, Doocaster, sire of Bend Or, winner of the Derby, he Bire of the unbeaten Ormonde, he eire of Orme, leading stallion of Great Britain in 1899. A white-faced chestnut filly by imp. Lord Esterling (sire of Lord Weir), out of Glenair, by Bishop, was the next claimant for admiration. She is of good siz>, has a beauti- ful head and neck, is deep through the heart, has a flawless set cf legs setting well under her, and to cap it all is exceed- ingly fleet and has grand action. This filly is from the fa- mous "Dance family," that gave us Domino, Glidelia, Lucky Dog, Bolero, KermeBse, Kirkman, Balinkeel, Beel, Starke War Dance, All Hands Around, Cromwell, Al Fresco and many other phenomenal turf performers. Her dam is a young mare, her Beeond dam threw four winners, her third dam (Hop) was the mother of no less than ten winners, in- cluding the great Kirkman (best two and-three-year-old in America in his day). The fourth dam (Waltz) threw six winners, including the famous Glidelia (If miles in 3:01 in the early eighties), Bolero {sold for $35,000 as a two-year- old) and the stake-winner Kermesse. .Lord EBterling, sire the unbeate
