inOITERS IN EUROPE African Hcrses Hire Wca Fans la Us Wcrli CIUlfcE HAROLD THE flZST TO SUCCEED i Other Fleet ftteppers That 'Have Been Bold to Foreljca Fanciers Winner of the Interna- Clonal Stakes at Nice, Though the American trotter Invaded Curope about twenty years ago, bla eon M-est of the Old World not completed till laat week. About the, first draft on the faarness-raclng stock of this country was made by a Scotchman, when John Hendrle of Glasgow purchased two colts at Wood burn Farm, near Lexington, Ky. One of these was a son of Harold, a aire that afterward became noted through the doings of Maud S. Be bore the romantic and appropriate name of Child Harold, and saw the Sight of day In 187L. The dam of the colt destined to be the pioneer of trotters that have won fame aad fortune abroad was Portia, a snare by Mniubrtno Chief, out of Portia, by Roebuck.

Her greatness bad not ripened when first foal by Harold was shipped across the Atlantic, but a few years later an older son. by Tattler, proved to be a consistent performer, and was one of the fastest stallions of bis day. As late a 1892 Nora Lee, another of Young Portia's numerous brood, earned a record below 230. when she was eighteen years old. Aided by this valuable heritage of speed, Chllde Harold took kindly to a turf education In his new home, and was easily the champion of the sulky la the British Isles.

His training was Intrusted to a Canadian named Glddtngs, who won about all the contests open to a trotter to England, and later oa repealed these successes In France. Being a clever reinsman, with a knowledge of the methods employed In this country, Gludlngs bad as much advantage pver the European drivers la the trainer's art as his 'Kentucky-bred pupil had over the leas speedy strains that he met la the land of bis adoption. Reports of what Chllde Harold was doing reached Canada, and. by reason of local Interest, attracted more attention than on this side of the border. As a result, in 1879 a small shipment of stock was made from Nova Scotia to Liverpool.

In the lot was a bay stallion caUed Frank Allison, with a record of 2284. made at Boston the year before. He was probably the first trotter with a fast mark to make the transatlantic trip, but he did nothing on a foreign track, being sold for $4,500 to a French Duke soen after hla arrival at London. Encouraged by the good market they found In Qreat Britain, these Canadian turfmen took over a larger consignment the next year. A brown mare bred at Saratoga and known on turf In this State a Jenny Raymond was one of this second table.

She had a record of 2:30 under that name, and while on a masquerading tour In the Maritime Provinces as Princess enade this an even In England this mare was still called Princess, and she created suite a sensation by capturing some Important eventa As a record made In America caused a trotter to be more heavily handicapped on the British tracks, the men who made these early E'pt their own counsel as far as possible about their horses. It was understood that Oray Salem a gelding of unknown breeding, but fast enough to score 2.24 at honae, went long with Fanny Raymond, alias Princess. He was exchanged for an Orion Stallion In Herman mnA nothing of his subsequent career ever came1 HUtt While the American trotter was making rai progress In England during the period Just mentioned, he received a much warmer and more lasting welcome on the Continent of Europe.

At the elose of the campaign, this trotter had several good races to his credit, and a record of The value of such good blood as Atlantlo Inherited from his sire. Almont, and his dam. Isabella Cley, the latter tracing direct to Henry Clay, Mam-tiino Chief, and some of the best through-bred families, has shown Itself in the comparatively few foals he left In this country. One of his sons, Atlantic King, has scored SKK at the pace, and another. Dandy, has a winning performance of 2:144.

Rose Leaf, one of the best four-year-olds of last season, out Florence a daughter of Atlantic, and Maud with 2:15 to her credit, is bred the same way in the maternal line. Having wad but a limited opportunity In IUly, Atlantic is now best known by what bis descendants have done -on this side of the water, but he is bound to be the founder of a strain of race winners In the old world as well. During the last five years the patrons of light-harness sport across the ocean have been still more ambitious for developed peed, and mmy trotters with records well below 2:20 have been added to the more modest collection of the two decades preceding.

These feats bad never teen equaled at the diagonal gait up to that time, except on a klte-ehaped course, and Mattle H. was expected to carry everything before her In Europe, Though she has well repaid the Investment, this mare has fallen considerably short of being a champion abroad. During the three days meeting st Nice which ended so brilliantly last Tuesday, Mettle H. took part In the contests open to American-bred horses. For the first of the events, known as the Grand International." she was beaten by Shade-land Delraonta, and Blue Bella and throughout thla blgh-claas tournament on the aiediterraneaa shore she was never better than third In any heat, Of the four trotters that carried off the lion's share or the spoils at Nice, not one took abroad anything Ilk the prestige that Mettle H.
