The C.J.C. stewards snally inflict a much severer ppnaKy for be offence than that which they meted »vt to Hewitt. While crossing the Newmarket Bridce last Monday on the way to the blacfcsmith"s. the two-year-olds Hildebrand and Hauraki were startled by the Howick motor 'bus. the pair of them rearing up and ; failing on the slippery, bridge. Hauraki fortunately escaped without injury, bat llildebrand was not so lucky, and besides j injuring his round bone it is feared that I ho has hurt himself iivtema'.ly.

(To the Sporting Editor.) Sir. —I bare a grievance to ventilate and would like yon to publish Jt for mc either in your sporting columns or in anj way you may think beet. It concerns the unfair treatment dealt out to my mare Agues T B. by the Otahuhn Trotting Club'e aandl- '"" rapper. This mare has been trotting rot the past three seasons. Pleasanton beat » her, both off the same mark, in 3.5 i for , the mile; second to Belladonna, in whlca •• had 3he trotted 3m she would haTe made a dead heat of it; Green Lavender received Is from her, and beat hrr by SO yaids In 2ra s<ls. my mare being second. You will therefore see she has never trotted Sm or better. In the handicap for this approaching meeting my mare on h><r present handicap J 1 would have to trol 2m C>V.s to beat Itusa- " lipot. w-no has a "m SSfi record. So you can see what chancp she b-as against the snatch horse. ThjnkLns you in anticipa- - tlon. and hoping you will ventilate this matter for roe.—l am, etc., T.
