subject was laid over for one month

MANS FRIEND.
A Worthy Exhibition of Horse Training
-McKeown,s Method.

-McheoWn'B metno0s
A very good audience. including several
ladies, witnessed Professor John Nc
Keown's horse-taming and training exhi-
bition, at Armory Hall, last night,
days engagement. 1t was GER
tainly very interesting. instructive, and,
at times, exciting entertainment. Nc
Keown understands the horse. His
method of curing vicious horses, of train
ing wild ones and of teaching horses tricks
and to follow, lead, obey. etc. is based on
frmness, patience, kindness, and
only severity sufficient to command
respect. Every one who drives
or rides ought to hear McKeown's sensible
emphatic and plain-spoken advice-it
would prevent many an accident and the
running of many horse, if followed. His
first experiment was with fine four-ysar-
old horse belonging to E. NJ. Leitch. The
animal has been vicious, difficult to harness,
backed in his stall, was halter puller,
kicker and generally unmanagable and
dangerous. In Ten minutes time Nc
Keown had him broken of halter pulling
and stall hacking. and in half an hour he
had him harnessed TO a buggy and driving
about with drums beating and flags float
ing about the animals head, and irecrack-
ers swapping under and about him, while
the driver was firing pistol to right and
left of the horse, which stood or moved
without any signs of fear, or any attempt
to rebel, and obeyed every command given.
The next experiment was with q fine an
imal belonging to Mr.. Bassett. of Bassett &
Murf0r3, which he taught to follow and
wheel at command, though the animal had
been difficult one to handle, and was
bad halter breaker. When il came to treat
ing the mare for this latter vice an exciting
scene followed, the animal screaming,
plunging kicking and fighting for all she
was worth; but she was speedily SUBJ
dued, and in Ten minutes was careless of
the drum beating, pan-rattling and UNI
brella-opening that could be done about
her head. A pony was then quickly taught
to do several tricks. Tonight there will
be change of programme, and one feature
will be teaching q stallion to obey and do
tricks. Professor McKeown will break
any horse gratis brought to him at the
hall for exhibition. and cure any horse of
vicious habits. His entertainment, as said,
is worthy, his system sensible, his lecture
full of humane teaching and sound sense
about horses, comprehensive by any one.
He especially desires ladies to attend and
learn how to inspire in their horses per-
feet trust in their mistresses, and how to
secure from their driving horses implicit
obedience

WHY OUR CLOTHING LEADS

The advantages we offer to Clothing buyers are
telling and important They arise in part from our
ability to get the best the country affords ana from
the determination to so suit customers as to have
their trade permanently.
One of the first questions which buyers ask
about clothing is How will it wear !" The point is
a vital one. Much hinges upon it. Clothing that falls
short in quality costly any price 1t is true it is
hard oft times to detect poor clothing When new it
is likely to be roned and pressed into shape as to
look better than it really is How is the buyer to
know how it will wear and keep shape after the first
newpess has worn off How is he to tell whether,
like we'll built house, it is thoroughly stayed in
those parts which closed to the eye He can't
except by buying and wearing With most people
clothing is too costly item Of dress to experiment
with.
Unlike most dealers, we have nearly all our cloth
ing made to order. We pick out manufacturers.
We pick cloth. We say how this kind of
suit is to be made, and how that If when the coats
pants. or whatever they may be, are DONE they are
not up to the standard of excellence, back they 90
the makers People look to US for the best goods,
and aue cannot afford TO keep anyt>Eimg else.
In point of price clothing will be found,
quality considered always as low and in most cases
lower, than that of other Dealers
In point of style and fit it ranks second to none,
many Of the leading manufacturers of the country
being engaged upon work.
This season our stock of all kinds of clothing is
unusually large and we are sure it will pay anyone
in need of goods in this line to see what we have
