"ARAB PONIES.

PURCHASES FOR PHILIPPINES PASS THROUGH HONGKONG.

The 1. & Oss. Sardinia, which arrived here on Friday, brought four Arab stal· lions from Bombay Two of them- bay and a grey were aged four years and two. also a grey and a bay, were five years of age. They are bound for Manila, having been purchased by the American military authorities from one of the Indian Army stock farms, it is beffered.

The horses were consigned to the American Express Company here by the American Consul-General in Bombay for transhipment to Magila.

The Manager of the American Express Company made arrangements with the Hongkong Jockey Clah that the horses. should be stabled at Causeway Bay until ready for shipment by the Blue Funnel ...ficienus, which sailed from bere on Saturday afternoon.

While the Arabs. were here. the American Express Company and the Management of the Jocker Cluti Stables courteously gave every facility to visitors anxiour to see an "Arab in the flesh, and full advantage was taken of the unusual opportunity.

The India in charge of them was justly proud of his job even to the extent of stating how one of them bad won 94 out of 23 races! This story was somewhat discounted, however, by the Indian's statement that the purchase price was Rs.1,000 per head!

From enquiries made by a Daily Préss representative, it would appear that more of the ponies have ever been race. They have been purchased, on behalf of the American Government, with a view to

improving the breed of the ponies in the Philippines so as to ensure suitable re- mounts for the troops and constabulary.
