WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY.

For the Gazette.
We saw several horses this morning
tightly reigned back from the tops of
their heads slipping and almost falling
at every step, the power TO protect
themselves had been taken away by
the man who drove them and VINO no
doubt thought himself very wise when
he gave the lame aud wurn-out excuse
tnat 1t kept The horse from kicking.
Now Henry Bergh assures us this is an
error and that II horse kicks 1t is be-
cause he IL trying to kick away the
hateful check-reign. He shows much
more sense than the man when he
tries TO free his head and neck ~ the
only means OF projecting himself fro m
falling, independent OF the physical
harm IL is doing him all the time. We
hardly know which TO pity most the
lack of sense In the man or the painful
position of .he horse's head. Take a
man, tie his head back SO he can't see
what he tramps on, put him on the icy
street and make him run, he will find
he cannot keep up without freeing his
neck. We thought enough had been
said 10 regard to this foolish and wick
ed practice u abolish its use entirely
bus the fact that It takes the light long
er to enter soms heads than others in
duces US 10 mention 1t once more. A
check-rein on the icy street Is certain
ly little too much 70 bear quietly
The aristocracy Of England have en-
tirely abandoned its use. e. W.

STATEMENT OF THOMAS LORD, JR.-
The New York World publishes state
ment from Thomas Lord, Jr., in which
he charges that his fathers estate has
been so greatly depleded by the .exorbi-
tant demand for money made by Mrs
Hicks in the past years that its income is
reduced from $3.50, 900 in 1870 to $50, ,000in
1877. He charges that the old gentleman
loaned her in one check 100000, in an
other $l0a, 900, and in one year $240, 900,
and that she owes him, principal and in
terest, S9OO,OOO. Bonds amounting to
s1O,OO6, the property of his Oldest daugh-
ter, who has long been insane, which
were placed in his charge, cannot be
found. The children had nearly perfect
ed arrangements to have the property
placed in the hands of trustee, without
involving the family and its head in un-
pleasant publicity, when he sprung the
marriage upon them.
