' Year's horses with pedigrees have hut with birthday , tlio 1st day of January , action Ujfi.lt JC 1 no matter when they were born. O course , foals of the spring hnvo a bij , adtatitngo over foals dropped at the end of the fall , bul nil goes , as racing nion say. All the famous two-yr > nr-olds are now three-year-olds , and all tin yearlings nro two-year-olds , and foi IxMh enormous prizes have ( KHMI pro yided In the stake races. It is the ob ject of the onstorn racing men to in- cronso the interest of llio public In stake races' ' , and the liberality shown in nddod moncv is nitonixhiiiR. l"ho Coney Island Jockey club has lowon-i ; tin1 purse money to add it to tlu stnko money for this verv purpose , in con sequence of which a rumor wont abroad that h' s money * vns to bo given because the limit of ovpomh- lure and receipt had been ronehod. , \ \ n matter of fact not only nro the enor mous sums maintained , but there is an ini'reiise of nine thousand dollars. Onlv there is a reduction in the o\er night r.iccs , so called because the ontrirs arc inado on the evening before Uie raci- , whereas the entries for the stake wees arc nct'c nrUy made a year ahead. Bat it is slrango bow the general public re fuses to become onthiHinxtic over staui races , and prefers to llioni the great handicaps , such aw the famous Subur ban , ami llio rdhnm ' , and the Metro politan. The winner of the Suburban is for the general public llio great horse of the year , whereas the winner of the Futurity stakes ( for two-year-old" ) i.s llio real equine star , the cynosure of every sporting o.u > . Proctor Knott , now w interim. in Kuntuckv , is the ani mal in question , and it is probable that he will make his first appearance as a three-year-old at Chicago in the Amer ican Derby. There ia so much clashing of dates that sooner or laler the owners of race horses will make up their minds Lo rncu wholly either at thu east or at the west. U henovor two rise superior over nil the rest , one in each section , , will always he possible lo manage a big match or handicap in which Ihej can moot. At presc-nt llio proud pos sessor of a favorite has lo pay a small fortune in forfeited entries , and this is beginning to tell. It may bo slated without inueli fear of being belied by Ihu event that Ihn circuit from ICon- tucky to Chicago , from Chicago to Slieopshead Bay. from Shcopslicad Bay Saratoga , from Saratoga to Long Branch , is a thing of the past. It does not pay-and the traveling is much too hard upon the horses. SIOHA Titoit. Trains to Wnslilnuton.
