When the Chicago Jockey and Trotting Club closed its last season various circum- stances had conspired to make the situation unot overpleasant one, and, although the meefings had in point of performances been a great success and the track attained’a rep- utation second tu that of none in the country for fair dealing and fast time, the financial showing was not a satisfactory one... The pool-selling and refreshment privileges, which brought in an annual income of about $15,000, were not in*the hands of the Club, and the difference thus created was more than suflicient to cover the loss sustained at the various meetings given during the year. When things seemed to be at a dead-lock, Mr. H. V¥. Bemis, who had been a most generous supporter of the Club in the past, came forward, and in a card published in this paper showed exactly how mutters stoUd, and what, in his opinion, ‘was necessary for the success of the Club m the future. Having mapped outa course of action, Mr. Bemis went vigorously to work to put his plans into action. His first move was to interest in the formation of the new Association .a number of well-known busi- ness men, his idea being to have the enter- prise actively participated in by a large num- ber of Chicago business men, and in this he has been eminently successful, as_the list of stockholders below will show. Organizing under the name of the Chicago Driving Park, ofiicers were elected, and programs for the summer running and trotting meetings adopted, so that almost before the outside x Liie was aware of its existence the Chicago Brivine Park was the possessor of the finest Jowance, and will be expected to makea creditable effort for the Derby in 188. The French-bred stallion Monseigneur has been brought back to France from Germany to take the place of Mortemer, recently pur chased by Mr. Pierre Lorillard, and shipped by him to this country. .. The Duke of Kent. one of the fastest horses in the country, has been purchased by Billy Lakeland. He is 3 years old, but has never won, his nearest approach to-first honors being a dead heat with: Brooklyn at Chicago Jast summer. E Mr, Edward Martin, of St. Louis, is driv- ing Tom Keno, a horse that can trot in 2:26, with Duke, <. Tnis adds another to the many fast teams of St. Louis, Mr. France, Mr. Greenley, Mr. Lueas, Mr, Rockwood, and. others being owners of fine teams. The annual meeting of the Central Park Driving Association, for the election of Di- rectors for the ensuing year and for the transaction of such other business as may. come before the meeting, will be held at Martine’s Lower Hall, on Ada street, be- tween Madison and Washington: streets, to- morrow. ‘Among those who. thought of purchasing Mortemer, when it was found that AL Lefevre would sell him, was the Queen of. England. er agent and manager, Mr. Moon, went over to Chamant to inspect-him, and mgde a bid for him, to succeed St. Albans at the Hampton Court stud, But the bid made for the Queen was not as large as Mr. Lorillard was willing to give, and be secured him for Rancocas. Mr. B. Wise, of Freeport, Ill., seems to think he is the owner of the best 4-year-old Mene- Jaus filly that ever took a snaiflie in its mouth. Look out, Mr. Wise, what you say about Menelaus stock, for remember that Mr, Ad- dison Doughty, of this city, has a ‘barn full of Menelaus colts and fillies which few men dare bet against, and if you should say to Mr. Doughty what you say to us he might get you into trouble-—Dunton’s Spirit. Maud S. is kept strong with grain, and is in the best of health. Mr. Bair has ordered alight wagon for her, and he says hewill easily beat next year the wagon record of Hopeful. He thinks he can drive her, rigged to four wheels, in 2:13. He also says he would like to see her matched against St. Julien. , He argues that she has as much speed as he has, is as good a rater, and will stay better. On the Ist of January he will take the young queen up and commence jog- ging her, ry Mr. Joseph Perkins, 2 Cleveland million- aire, who drives Jessie Hayes (2:2), is said to be the best amateur driver in Cleveland. Mr. George Baker, of the same city, comes out ina sealskin overcoat behind Peculiar and DanS. Mr, John Huntington, also of Cleveland, is driving Rienzi (2:25)¢), but his gelding, Mountaineer (2:31), is said to be the fastest on the snow. Mr. D, M. Marsh with Tola (2:293¢), Mollie Kistler (2:28}4), Uead- light (2:30), Redwood (2:35), and other good ones, Mr. William Edwards manages to be bapps either behind Fringe, or Maria, or Stella, . , Tace-track and buildings in the country, with not a cent of indebtedness, and $10,000 in its treasury, The capital stock of the Company was fixed at $100,000, of which $60,008) was id up at the time of organizing. The uildings and track of the Jockey Ciub were purchased for $50,000, jeaving a surplus of * $10,000 in the treasury with which to com- mence operstions for the season of 1880. ‘This having been-accomplished, the work of iacing the stock in the hands of Chicago Dusinesmce was begun, and the movement met with such favor that in a short time every ‘share had been disposed of, and the interests of the Park are now confided to the business men of the city, instead of being centered in the hands of a few individ- uals, That this plan is the best one for all arties concerned there can be no doubt, and its results will be seen next summer, when it is proposed to give the best trotting and run- ning meetings ever known in this city. One matter that should not_be overlooked is the generous action of Mr. Bemis and his business associates, Messrs. McAvoy and Robinson, in regard to the unpaid claims against the defunct Jockey and Trotting Club. Of course the holders of these claims had not the slightest reason to believe that they would eyer recover their value, since the Club had p out _of existence, but through the generosity of Mr. Bemis and his partners they have received their claims in full. Although -not morally or Iegally bound to pay a cent of the obliga- tions of the Jockey Club, those gentlemen concluded that they could not afford to be in- terested in any concern over which even the shadow of a cloud rested, and accordingly they paid froin theirown pockets all these claims,—the amount being about $10,000. . It. ‘was a Renerous att, ahd characteristic of the men who performed it. 4 Chicago now has a racing association that stands in the very front rank of all such in- stitutions, and that it will achieve a success there can be no doubt.

THE LEAGUE CLUBS OF 1881. ‘The different clubs composing the League. having practically completed their teams for 1881, THE TrrBuNeE herewith presents the batting and fielding averages of the eight clubs. A greatdeal of care has been devoted to the work, and the figures given in most cases are official. In the case of.a few play- ers no record was obtainable, and a fair av- erage was given them, probably higher than they really deserved. The figures’ opposit the names of Snyder, McClellan, Derby, Baker, Lytich, Deasley, Gerhardt, and a few others are the official ones of the National Association. In the case of Nolan and Brown,- who reénter the League, the record is for “1878 and 1879 respectively. Of course figuring can’t be relied on to win the championship of 1881, but a good idea‘can be obtained of the relative strength of the clubs. There may possibly be a few changes in the composition of the teams before the season opens, but this will not affect the club average to any extent. Ten men have been selected for each club, and the positions assigned them are those in which they have forinerly played. {t will be seen that in batting the champions hold the first place and Cleveland the second. Cleve- Jand has the best fielding team, and Butffalo comes next. ‘The new Detroit Club makes the poorest showing at the bat, but the field- ing average is among the best.

Gilligan has been engaged by Providence as change catcher. James O’Rourke’s engagement with the Buttalo Club completes that organization. McCormick, formerly of the Syracuse Stars, has gone to Texas to go into the busi- uess of cattle-herding, ‘The Bostons will have three good catchers in Snyder, Crowley, and Deasley, Bond has not yet signed, but probably will. Denny, of California, has been engaged’ by the Providence to cover third base. He had previously been claimed by ‘Troy. The Metropolitan Cluv of New York have signed Brouthers, Powers, Brady, Kennedy, Pike; Hawes, and Poorman for next season. Thomas Carey, who has been in California the past season, had a compliméntary benetit in San Francisco recently to enable him to cone East. Cincinnati Enquirer: “We suppose Mc- Vey is still in California, vagless. somebody gave him a pair of snowshoes and a compass with the needle pointing East.” It is said that Bond, of the Bostons, mar- ried well last year, and also received a sinall fortune from Ireland, so that ne is not very. anxious to remain in tho diamond. Snyder Jed the batting among the forty-two players in the clubs of the National Associa- tion. Meyerle, who played with the Roches- ters, had the highest tielding average. Sullivan, of Dubuque, who has been se- lected by Buffalo to catch for Galvin, is said to be an accurate thrower, tough as a weath- er-beaten tar, and a splendid batter. George W.

Nolan pitched for. the Patersons and McCormick for the Stars of the same place. ‘The following year Nolan entered the Olympics and Mac took Nolan’s place in the Patersons; then Nolan joined the Buckeyes, of Columbus, O., and Mac the Olympics; the following season Nolan pitched for the Indianapolis team and Mac for the Buckeyes; in 1878 Mac was engaged as change pitcher and Nolan as regular in the same team; then Nolan went to San Francisco and Mac followed; now they: are engaged to play in the same team again, but this time the cards are changed; Mac sits at the first table now, and his friend, “ The » Only,” will take what is left. THE END OF THE YEAR, ‘Translated from the. French: for. The Chicago ‘Tritune ‘| “py Emma Stantey. ; -Decemser 80, Evening.—Recovering from a delirous fever, which for along. time had kept me suspended between life and death, { began to perceive glimmerings of light penetrating my reason, like flickering sun- beams piercing the flying clouds, At times everything appeared clearly be- fore me, like the perspectives which open before us, when the weather is serene, from the hight of some elevated mountain. We distinguish the waters, the woods, the vil- Jages, flocks, and herds, and perchance a enalet posed onthe borders of a ravine; then perhaps a squall arises, and all is confounded in mists and gloom. é ‘Thus, yielding to the oscillations of alucid- ity not wholly recovered, and allowing my mind to follow all the changes without dis- tinguishing the reality from the vision, it glided gently from one to the other, and the waking and the dream followed each other in quick succession. : While I was wandering in this -uncertain- ty, abeing appeared before me, her finger pointing to the clock, whose sonorous pulse was beating the last hours of the dying year. The first glance was sufficient to prove that this was not a daughter of Eve. “Her eye haa the fading brilliancy of a star whose light was going out, and her countenance the pallor of extreme agony: Clothed in drapery of a thousand cglors, with which mingled the most gorgeous and most sombre hues, she held in her hand a withered floral crown, - After having gazed on her some moments, asked her name, and what she was doing in my mansard. Her eyes, which followed the hands of the clock, turned towards me and she answered: = “ Thou seest in me the year which is de- parting. I come. to receive thy thanks and thy adieux.” 2 I started with surprise, which soon gave place to bitter resentment. “ “Ah! thou wouldst be thanked P’ I cried. “Let me see what thou hast brought me! When I saluted thy coming I was younger and more vigorous. ‘Thou -hast takenfrom ine each day something of my strength, and thou hast ended by sending me sickness. “Already, owing ta thee, my blood is less warm, my feet less firm. ‘Thou hast deposited in my bosom ‘the genus of infirmi- ties; there, where bloomed the summer-fiow- ers of life, thou hast wickedly: planted the thistles of old age.
