How Animals In the Cavalry Service Are
Examined and Branded.
The inspection is done by a board oil
three or six officers. One by one the
horses are led up for inspection. An
examination is first made of the horses
eyes. teeth. limbs and body. His &C.
tons under examination are likewise
taken note of. He is then saddled and
mounted in the presence of the board.
He must yield to the bride and bit cas-.
lily. Then he is walked one hundred
yards and return. after which he is
started on u fierce gallop. Returning
to the inspectors he is unsaddled and a
final inspection is made. II this second
examination does not reveal any physi-

OF the mounts" of a cavalry troop. In
the distribution of the horses care is
exercised in regard to color. AS near
as possible. black horses are kept in
one troop. bay horses in another. and

strike any one very fOrcibly as a bad
arrangement to see q captain riding at
the head Of a black horse company on
a white steed. yet it would form AN ILL
advised combination to see several
troopers on white horses sprinkled
through the company.
The enlisted cavalrymen are supplied
with mounts at the expense Of the
Government, but officers are required
to purchase their horses. When the
horses reach the company for which
they were purchased. the officers are
entitled to the privilege of selecting
n or two as each desires. and paying
the assistant quartermaster for the
actual cost of the horse or horses taken.
One troop Of each regiment is COM
PEELED to take the leavings. as far rs
color is concerned. This troop. when
mounted. is not u bad imitation of a
rainbow, on account of the diversity of
hues.
The owners of horses name them
with a sort OF acrOstical reference to
their company's title. Thus the names
of all horses in Company A begin with
that letter. The horses are we'll cared
for in stables which arc kept clean and
neat. The name of each trooper is
placed o his horses manager, right
above the name of the horse. No pri-
vate is allowed to take his steed from
the stable. unless it is in the line of
duty. without securing a permit from
the commanding officer .-Detroit Free

Slick Jack Sullivan.

A year or two since one Jack Sui
Ivan was Jailed on the charge of rob.
bling Col, Tom Steele, of Fairview.
B fore he came to trial, Sullivan man
aged to make his escape by cutting a
triangular hole in the side of his cell
aud slipping out when Mr.. Long
came in to feed the prisoners. Last
spring Sullivan was arrested in Full
ton and again placed in jail here.
Tuesday he was tried in the circuit
court, and the jury falling to agree,
he was incarcersted to await another
trial on the Nth day of the term.
Tuesday night Jailer Long noticed
that the prisoners had eXtinguished
all their lights, an unusual occurrence.
This excited his suspicious and he
sat up to watch proceedings. About
. o'clock Sullivan lit his lamp ard
began work. The next day Mr.. Long
found his box of tools consisting of
two shoe springs fixed into pine hand
les, rude awl, sand stone rock to
sharpen his utensils and rope that
he had woven out of his blanket. He
had cut hole in the floor of his cell
5xl2 inches in which to conceal his
tools. Mr.. Long took charge of these
things and has completely clipped
the wings of the bird, he thinks.
Sullivan is shrewd looking Creole
aud is evidently slick hand at such
business.
