NOTES OF THE TDRF. W. Martin has been engaged to ride Freak, the half sister to the great mare Forget, in the Tennessee Oaks; N. Tnrner will ride May Hempstead; Knapp, Gay Parisienne, and Crow-hurst, Matanza. The riders of Souchon, May dOr, Oar Nellie, Florence Austin and Lizzie Kelly have not been announced yet. Ireland Bros., Elizabeth, Ky., have sold and shipped to L. C. Sloan, New Boston, 111., the bay horse Newton, ten years old, by Billet Vas-sar, by Virgil. Nowton at one time held the two-mile race record, 3 :27i, made at Washington Park. Dr. Catlett has been schooled to jump at Monmouth. He performs in brilliant fashion, and as no horse looks better than this now gelding does, there is every likelihood of his proving at the top of the heap between the flags.
