James Marchall of Dixon visited Pleasanton last week and made arrangements to breed his mare Trix by Nutwood Wilkes to Star Pointer 1:59M. Trix is the dam of Mona Wilkes 2:1114, winner of the three- year-old pacing division of the Breeders' Futurity of 1905. Mr. Marshall has as fine a collection of young brood mares as there is in California. They are not numerous, but they are bred in producing lines. J. G. Thomas, of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, has sent a string of eleven trotters and pacers to Denver to be trained by Al Russell. The fastest one in the string is Castlewood 2:09%, a pacer by Birchwood. H. S. Hogoboom of Woodland, Cal., has heard of the pacing stallion Prank Marriott 2:12%, owned by a Pennsylvania doctor, who claims him to be the largest pacing horse in the world, Frank Mariott being 17 hands high and weighing 1200 pounds. Mr. Hogo- boom thinks his stallion Arthur W. beats the horse from the Keystone State a little, as his record is a full second faster and he weighs 1400 pounds. Information comes from Cleveland, O., that the well-known trainer, Vance Nuckols, has sold to Thomas W. Murphy of Glen Cove, L. L, the thirteen- year-old trotting mare Miss Brock 2:13% by Stranger, dam Brooch (dam of Broomal 2:15) by Jay Gould , at a reported price of $2500. The deal was closed on the 3d inst., and it is stated that Mr. Mur- phy's purpose in buying Miss Brock was to breed her to Laco
