He recently received a proposition to exhibit his animals In Chicago no a special attraction for a big Shrinors meeting, but on account of the change of climate in that section he did not consider the propositin. He was in Green ville laBt week and conferred with Mr. Mills. He is now visiting the other cities of the' circuit for the purpose of closing the deal. Watchful, a very fine threo-gs^it ed gelding, the property* of T. . E. jKrumbholz, will be exhibited at the Camden Show.
