Tbo Taranaki Jockey Club’s committee are making arrangements for extensive inprovements on their property. The road from the Cover street entrance to the lawn will be formed and metalled, and a side walk for pedestrians will be laid down at the same time. Xb is proposed to shift the grandstand back, and place it on concrete piles. Fifteen feet will bo taken off tho hill, which will enable all patrons to see a race from start to finish, Tho turn near the seven furlong post will also bo improved. In the outside enclosure it is understood that several improvements will bo effected, includin'' the erection of a stand. The committee at their next meeting will fix the details. Mr D. Thomson, Hastings, who owned Will o’ the Wisp, has bought o'u,t tho Criterion Hotel, Now Plymouth. Tho Aiasterton Racing Club intends to keep spielers and undesirable characters oif their course. In the case against Peter Jackson last week, Air Pownall stated that tho Opaki race course was tho property of tho Masterton Racing Club, a registered body. The club had a standing resolution that any undesirable persons should be refused admission to tho course. It would be shown that this was not the first occasion upon which the accused had entered the course against the wish of tno club. He had got there on an owner’s pass, which was nob transferable. In the present instance accused had been refused admission at the gate, but had found Ins way in across the paddocks. He was warned off several times, and had returned. It would bo shown that accused was an undesirable person to have on a racecourse. There was no desiro to penalise the accused, but the club wished to show this class of person that they could not go on to tho course. His worship Air \V.

P. James (S.M.), said it was very clear that tliD club had a risrht to exclude persons from the course at their discretion. The accused was one of the persons who was not considered desirable. He must have known ho had no right there, and ho had refused to leave when requested to do so. The Bench had power to sentence accused to three months. Crus ado (by Cruiser—Prudence) ridden by “Jack” Cameron, won the Steeplechase of lOOsovs at the Australian Jockey Club’s meeting on March 18th. Boreas, In charge of Francis, arrived a t Auckland on Monday last, and "Spectator” saw him in his box at the Harp of Erin. He looks very well after his trip, and is doing well. Sullivan takes Merriwee, who was purchased by J. Prosser, on to Napier for Mr Watt. Sullivan has not quite recovered from the kick Boreas gave him. Francis informed me that on the day before their departure from New Zealand for Sydney with Advance that horse got cast in his box, and cut the inside of his knee. This filled on the boat, and he fomented the log all the way over. After landing in Sydney the swelling disappeared, but after the very first gallop Advance was sore. This was reported in the papers. Advance did not, in consequence, do so much work as Prosser would otherwise have given him, and he was really short of work. Francis thinks he is sure to redeem his .character in Sydney, and is certain Ad. Van-e was not so well in Melbourne as we have seen him in New Zealand. When ho faltered in his paces, it was boc.iu.so he was not so well as he might have been, had he had everything in his favour from the day he left Now Zealand.

The starters in fourteen races at th e Westport meeting numbered 42—an average of exactly throe per race. In live events there were only two starters. The number of horses that took part on Both days was fourteen. One day’s racing would surely be plenty for Westport. The luck of the “rose and black” has been out for some time, and Dan O’Brien intends to give up racing for the pre. sent. The whole of his norses are to bo sold next month. With the departure of Messrs Dunn and O’Brien it will soon be a case of reoms—or rather stables—to let at Riccarton. The Frenchman and Rangipunehu, formerly members of T. Quinlivan’s team, competed at the Waihi meeting on the 23rd inst. The Frenchman won two races and ran second in another, and his stable ran last in a field of three in the Hurdle Race. Although the first day of the recent meeting of tlio Masterton Racing Club was wet and the totalisator turnover was less than last year the meeting resulted in a profit of £2lB 16s lOd. F. Seacombo appeared before the stewards of the Masterton Racing Club on Saturday last to answer a complaint that he had used had language on the course at the recent meeting, and had caused a disturbance. Soacombe stated that ho was very sorry for what ha had done. Ho w-as under the influence of liquor at the time. He promised that if the stewards dealt with him leniently ho would not allow such a thing to oc. cur again. In answer to a question, feeacombe stated it .was-he who gave the - owner’s pass to Peter Jackson to get into the , Jackson took-his (Seocombe.’s) horse into the,paddock. Ho'knew nothing against Jackson, who w-as not drunk at the time. In answer tc Mr Smith, it was stated by Seacombo diat . ho ; had ' previously r been before the stewards'at Tauhereni. kau.- - At'that time’ ho had had a fall < iiPa hurdle race, and,a drink or two | went to" his .head. , Answering further questions, Seacombo stated that he was not;aware -that • Jackson was a bobk- , ui'Jikcr iwhbn-J.ip: gave; him’ the pass. > Had <? hp known ho; vvtis; a.hobkmaker iis would ; not have given hirir’a-‘pass. Seacombo Sjvas cautioned., : . .. . .. 3 vEjector-arrived"beTe-from - Riccarton last week. The surprise of the Marlborough meeting was the defeat of Waterford in the : Hack Challenge Stakes. The followers of the horse, who have been having a :

good time lately, supported him hcavilv. ■Skylark, who brought about his dcioat., 1 is a Marlborough bred horse by Meridian (King Cole or Louis d’Or A watc.v —Tui, clam of Gladstone and Sing Song. Skylark won tho Scurry at Ashurst, beating a poor field. He was given a couple of runs at Pahiatua, but finished out of a place and had certainly done nothing to make him. out a better horse than Waterford at the weights. Tho visiting contingent were very successful. J. Cress won three events with the Voltigucr gelding Pukana. He ■ won the big event on the second day with Volley. Tho latter’s brother (U;m. 1 mahanga), scored at the fourth attempt. hut as the dividend was only £1 IT. tho trip was not a very profitable one. J. Hunter won a double with Lord Raglan (Rebellion—Alma). Ho was al o placed in two other events. Bewdrop did A. .Peters a winning turn in the Flying Handicap. This was her first win in /open company. The veteran pinformer at the meeting was Hillstono. who won the best slake for Alt Rore. Last year Hillstono was socoim to Spider and won the event the two pro. vious years.

Messrs Barnett and Grant report the following business: EASTER AND AUTUMN HANDICAPS. 200 to 10 Melwood and Pompero. 200 to 0 Melwood and Ideal. 200 to 4 Glenogle and Glenaldale 200 to 4 Gicmogio and Glenadalo. 200 to 5 Benzoin and Pampero. 100 to 2 Glenogle and Strathnairn. 100 to 2 Pampero and Ideal. 100 to 2 Pampero and Skcbeloff. 100 to 3 Tsaritsa and Pampero. Bill of Portland, who was represented at the V.R.O. Autumn. Meeting by Finland, United States, Maltster, and Cretonne, comes out on the top of the list of winning sires with four races to his credit. Wakeful and Dreamland scoured an important race each for Trenton, and Safety and Dodona did similar service for Padlock, while La Carabine credited Carbine, Speculation credited Albatross, and Black Watch credited Light Artillery with two races each. The stallions represented by a single winner were Dagobert, Haut Brion, Skipper, Lochicl, Strathmore, Escutcheon, Neckersgat, Baolka, Zalinsla, and Splendor.

At the sale of the Hon. J. 1). Ormond’s thoroughbred stock at Hashings last week the following lots were disposed of:—Bay filly, 6yrs, by Dreadnought—Radiant, Mr T. Connop, 13gs; bay filly, 4yrs, by Medallion—Flattery, Mr F.

Concerning a well-known Auckland sport, at present camped at Newtown , Park, a. Napier scribe writes:—Mr . Stapylton wotton Oaniton, an old J Hawke’s j-a,y racing identity, and brother of Mr H. O. Caulton, owner of Warwick, recently passed through Napier on his way to Wellington, where he joins the Seventh Contingent for ‘ 'South Africa. Mr Caulton has raced horses in the Hawke’s Bay, Poverty Bay and Auckland districts for the last quarter of a century or more. One of 1 the last and best animals ho owned was - that good mare Porangi Potae, who on } one occasion paid a big dividend, as did 3 another of Mr Caulton’s horses, an anii mal called Deadshot, I think, by Briga- . dicr—Katipo. In the early days Mr . Caulton imported several horses from i Australia, among them being Tregoagic - H., War Eagle (afterwards rc-christened : The Australian, and who has sired a - number cf good hacks on the West : Coast), and Ghillie Callum. He was a 3 great believer in the Wild Payroll blood, 3 of which Tregeagie 11. and the Aus- . traliaii were representatives. ’ The sport of trotting does not seem to ’ make headway in Nelson. At the annual meeting of the Nelson Trottinp; ’ Club on the Bth inst. only £328 was put ’ through tho totalisator. ' In the Ladies’ Bracelet, one mile and a half, the horses ’ wore re-handicapped. He Wet, a previous winner, was penalised lOsecs, ■ while Trickster and Honduras were each put on 15sec and Rangatnana, Msec. ; Honduras won and tho owner of He Wet ’ (who finished second) entered a protest, ’ which was disallowed. The rides of the 1 New Zealand Trotting Association do not provide for such penalties as were imposed. The meeting does not appear ! to have created a favourable impression. Mr Roderick Mcßae, who owns Richmond Park, on which the Trotting Club and Jockey Club hold their meetings, has called a special meeting of members of the Jockey Club to consider whether die trotting events on the programme should not be struck out and gallops put on in their place. The old time Henderson’s Mill Racecourse is to bo cut up for building sections. The Henderson’s Mill annual mooting was a popular outing with Auckland on St. Patrick’s Day so far back as 1880. The Papakura Racing Club, also since defunct, then raced on May 24th, and later on altered their date to Easter Monday. When the Henderson’s Mill Club dropped out of the running in 1892 the Papakura people took St. Patrick’s Day, and continued up to 1896. Both clubs had Cups worth £IOO, though at the finish the Papakura big money was only half that amount. At one of the Henderson’s Mill meetings John Lennarcl, of Mangere, won the Cup with j Kenilworth, the Maiden with Dewdrop. \ and another raoe with Rifleman. The : grey Lonehand won the jumping race at the same meeting. Mr Chadwick j (■‘Spectator”) won the Henderson’s Mi l I Ci:p one year with Nannie, Kalo being second. The latter turned the tables " on Nannie in the Railway. Mr Chadwick nad a jumping horse named Mar- I quis and Fusee (who won the Novel) at j the same meeting. The meetings were | held at Henderson’s on the northern lino about five miles beyond Avondale. Mr j Henderson, son., father of Mr T. Hen'derson, of the Union Company,'owned a flour mill, and the race meetings were | held on "his property. That is how they I came-to ho called Henderson’s Mill races. Recently a young man who followed f tho occupation of a miner, wishing to ; return to New Zealand, was engaged I purchasing his ticket, at a well-known Sydney office, when a 'stranger ran against him in - the usual “accidental"’ way, and casually remarked that he.too “was proceeding to the igland colony where ho owned a mine.” • Conversation followed, and the “mine owner” ;opined | that ho had “bought some," hors(fe over h there” and wanted a" man to lookyafter " t hem on-the voyage-to Now" Zealand.. ■ A r ■further ■meethi'g“tt , as'arrhhgcyP'mW’ the f* “mine owner” introduced a. friend who . was arranging for the purchase of some machinery at Pyrmont. The trio went to Pyrmont, hut the vendor of tho machinery, “not being in,” a stroll

through Wentworth Park was agreed to. Strange to relate a neatly-dressed individual (No. 4) passed, and "accidentally dropped’"' some valuables, which were promptly returned to him. Compliments were showered from No. 4 upon, the trio, and No. 4 proved also to be nicely spoken, and "had independ. out mean,” and "was shortly to be married.'’ But ‘die had recently lost £OO at a game,'’’ of which he had at last “solved the secret,” and “was now going to win thousands.” For their honesty “he would teach them how the trick was done.” They agreed, and the miner lost £4O in the operation. Constable Souter then came on tiic .scene, and the miner explained his loss, but the nicelyspoken man had gone with the £SO. The constable arrested one of the alleged conspirators, who is now under remould, but wnero the £SO has gone to has not been definitely revealed.

Mr J. Hacoutch’s lease of Warnote having expired, she has been returned to her owner, Mr Macara. The risk taken, by purchasers of the ‘‘correct card” was recently shown in Auckland. “Lochiel” writes:—“Messrs Gedclis and Elorafield, who- have just established a daily paper in. Waihi, paid £6O for the right to print and publish the Ohhicmuri Jockey Club’s official race card. Judge of their disgust and indignation to find on the morning of the first day’s races that a Mr Tallwocd had brought out a memorandum of the races, and was selling it for 6d. Of course when the public saw’ the contents of thecard they indignantly demanded the return of their money, and the sale of the book was suspended. I understand that legal proceedings arci pending, but I cannot refrain from expressing my surprise ’ and regret that any respectable printing office should have contracted to print a book of this nature, fully knowing that the official programme rights had been sold.” The same thing has been done in connection with. Wellington, Otaki and Carterton meetings. “Terlinga’’ says he did not hear a cheer given for Sir Rupert Clarke’s Dreamland when hd returned to weigh in after winning' the Australian. Cup. Sir Rupert bought that horse about two years ago, a ad then gave him a season at the stud. Sir Rupert Clarke, in answer to a question, said he had not made an offer for Acjvancpi, but had asked if he w-as for sale. Messrs Duncan and Abbott, in whoso name Advance was raced at FJemington, simply have tho horse on lease tor racing purposes. Melwood will probably make his next appearance in the Great Raster Handicap, seven furlongs, at Riccarton, in which event ho has Bst 51-bs. Tho English racehorse Skcpos, who won his owner, Mr IT. C. White, the Liverpool Summer Cup and other races, reached Sydney recently in the Whakatane, and the condition he arrives in reflects credit upon George Lenson, who had charge of him. For ten days after leaving England the Whakatane had a very rough time of it, encountering a succession of heavy gales, but fine weather was experienced subsequently, and Skopos soon picked himself together. Mr White’s importation, who is by St. Serf, from Stethoscope, was landed and sent to quarantine. The twoyear-old Benefactor (Stepniak —Charity) is progressing satisfactorily at the Hutt, and can be expected to run well wherever he sports silk. Tho Bride and Dreamland wgre sent back to Ballarat after tho V.R.C. meeting, but tho remainder of Scobic’s team, comprising La Carabine, Clean Sweep, Paul Pry, Hautvillers, United States, and Maltster, will take part in tho A.J.O. meeting, which opens on April 6th. Springold is not to be pen-severed with for tho present, and she has been sent home. Fireball (Fiske —Norah) has been leased ■by Mr J. Bacoutch to Jas. Cress, and he has joined that trainer’s string at Tanheirenikau.

; | A Melbourne paper is responsible foi ■ saying that Mr C. L. M’Leod, who ha; j taken leave of St. Albans, will take | Wakeful, Aurous, and perhaps Revenue ' | over to Randwick to compete at the A. J.C. Autumn Meeting, after which hi ! intends going to England, where he ha; 1 ! been offered the management of an in- | fluential stud. ' | Tho most successful jockey at the ' | V.R.C. Autumn Mooting was R. Lewis who stelered heme tho winners in sever races, namely—United Staters, Maltster La Carabine in two races. Hautvillers Tho Bride, and So Long. W. Mintej 1 rode two winners, and so did W. Dunford, H. Mills, A. Richardson. The jock- ;! oys who rodo the winners of one race , each were W. Ross, F. Dunn, W. Burn | F. Kuhn, J. R. Hoysted, Faunt, A. AI- , [ len, Bullock, and Mooney. \ Tho Hon. J. D. Ormond parted with tho well-bred horse Spinfeldt (NordenMdt—Spinaker) last week for 36gs, j Spinfeldt) won tho Wanganui Cup and other races, and Mr G. Crowther secured a bargain. i Tho Maiden Hack Race at Blenheim may be won by Rosewater (Waterfall — Primrose). | An important sale of thoroughbred stock took place on Friday last at Hastings. The To Mahanga yearlings were first offered, and attracted buyers from all parts of the colony. Fair prices were given for mest of the stock, though in most cases the animals went well within their value, and in some instances agents, i acting on -behalf of outside buyers, secured yearlings at much below the limit to which they wore prepared to go. A very fine filly by Mahaki—Melinite topped tho sale, and went to Mr J. T. Moore, Kai-iwi, Wanganui, at 165 guineas. There was brisk competition for , Tortulla’s full-brother, who brought 150 guineas, and Penrose, Bush Rose’s fullbrother, whose price was 120 guineas. Some racing stock belonging to Mr E. J. Watt was then put up, but tho best of them—lndian Quern and St Mark—failed to reach the owner’s reserve and were passed in. A number of yearlings and two-year-olds from Mr S. H. Gollan’s Mangatarata stud brought fair prices, | though some of the lots were withdrawn ! owing to the animals not having recover- : ed from an attack of the strangles. The Hollowing are the prices realised;—To | Mahanga draft: B g, by Torpedo—ParI lourmaid, Mr G. L. Sunderland, 36gs; br f, by Quilt —Nymph, Mr G. P.
