When you wish to stop your team, do it in
the sAanner indicated in the picture, not
pulling your bands up to your eyes in the
disgraceful fashion of some drivers. Simply
shorten up the reins with a turn OF the
wrist.
No more are you to poke your nose out
towards the horses ears and lean forward
when you drive. You are to sit up
right, in an easy, commanding position, and
manage your horses from the shoulder and
wrist. This advice from Mr.. Sidney is adj
mirable:
"The rationale of driving may be compared
to steering a boat. There must be no pulling
and hauling first one side and then the other.
The slightest movement will be felt on a
weil-broken, well-bitted horse, and antici-
pated-just as much pressure as is needfuI to
keep the head straight; this pressure on either
rein is, or should be, very slight"
Our authority does not go in very strongly
Tor holding the reins III one hand. 1t may
look very fine, but it leaves the driver at the
mercy OF any sudden movement the horse
may make. Especially in the beginning of a
Journey a good driver always takes the
reins in both hands, and holds them thus as
long as there is the least possibility of a horse
turning To the right or left. And ever If he
does for II little while hold them in the left
hand he always keeps his right hind where
he can grasp them Instantly in cast of need.
1t Is to be feared that Mr.. Sidney never had
any experience of Sparkling" over American
ccieitry roads

The Late "nuelkshot. Forster.

William Forster, an English Quaker preach

for the negro. His son, the late William E.
Forster, died recently in England, having

Irish people. 1t is an illustration of tho in

since. On the call to Office of Nh. Gladstone

To the vacancy created by the promotion
OF Gen. Terry the president has nominated
Col Thomas =. Ruger. Gen. Ruger was a
New York boy, but was appointed in 1850,
at the age of II, to West Point from Wiscon-
sin, from where he graduated with high
honors in 1854, he being the third in his class
and Gen. O. @. Howard the fourth. Enter
ing the Engineers, as his rank entitled him to
do, he was engaged for a few months on the
construction of the defences of New Orleans,
but the following spring, April l, 1855, re-
signed and opened a law business at James,
vile, in which he was occupied until the out
break of the civil war, six years later. His
first command in the war was as lieutenant
colonel of the Third Wisconsin Volunteers in
the summer of 1861. He became colonel of
on duty in Maryland and in the
Shenandoah valley during that and
the succeeding year, taking part in the
combat at Winchester. May, 1862, and in the
battles OF Cedar mountain, August O.,
and Antietam, Sept. II. He was made
briga6ier general of volunteers, Nov.
20, 1862, and as such took part in the battles
Of Charlottesville and Gettysburg in 1868.
He was engaged also in suppressing the draft
riots in New York in that year. Transferred
to the west, he took part in Sherman's cam
paign of 1864 to Atlanta, and then as a divi-
sion commander of the Twenty-third corps
in Gen. Thomas Tennessee campaign against
Hood, serving with the western army until
the surrender of Johnston.
After the war, Gen. Ruger was made colo
mel of the T~hirty-third infantry in the regu-
lar army, and brevet brigadier general for
gallantry and meritorious services at Gettys-
burg. He was for a time provisional COVER.
nor of Georgia, and held other commands at
the south throughout the reconstruction
period, and until 1871, when he served as
superintendent of the Military academy at
West Point for five years, until 1916. Then
he returned to Atlanta and took command
of the department. of the south. He had, in
1869, on the reduction of the number of regi-
ments, been transferred to the c~olonelcy OF
the Eighteenth infantry. and with this regi-
ment proceeded to the west on the reduction
Of the southern garrisons. At the time OF
his recent nomination, Gen. Ruger was in

One interesting chapter of Mr.. Sidney's
book is devoted to driving. There is much
to be learned from it by Americans.
In driving you must hold your hands as in
the picture, whether you have one horse or
two. You must appear to manage your
steed without the slightest effort.
For a carriage that n man is to drive him-
self he should be measured for the seat. The
position approaching the upright one is to be
altogether avoided. Nothing looks worse
than to see a driver obliged to throw his
head back if he pulls up suddenly" says Mr..
Sidney. For this reason care must be taken
not to have, the seat too high. The hands
should be about on a level in holding the
reins, Hold the elbows easily so that they
will Just clear the hips.

were needed. Mr.. Irons is q Scotchman,
stubborn, aggressive and self-reliant. In
