SHYING HORSES.
How to Cure Fractions Equines of Their
Disposition to Shy.

How to Cure Fractions Equines Of Their
Disposition to Shy.
A horse that after shying treasures him
self, and makes no effort to get away, but
calming down as soon as be perceives that
he was falsely alarmed, is presty certain to
make safe beast. Horses can be cured of
shying only by the experience which they
gain when carefully driven. The practice
of hogging after the event, besides being
cruel, is an extremely unwise one But if
the animal cannot be induced by coaxing to
pass particular object, the whip must be
used. When your steed stops from fright
and refuses to go on, it is good plan,
think, to speak reassuringly to him and at
the same time to tap him gently with the
whip as reminder that there is a power be-
hind him which he must obey. Ibelieve that
some Houyhuhuns never shy, but such
one is rare indeed. It was only the other
day, however, that I was told and on good
authority, Of a 4-year-old colt that showed
no fear of q train of cars in motion the
first time that he saw them and I have my
self, on at least two occasions, driven green
horses past pile-driver in action without
their being frightened in the slightest degree.
These same horses would jump little when
a dog rushed at them suddenly and unex-
pectedly. Practically, then, it is possible
to find horse which won't shy-that is, an
animal SO sensible and discreet that he can
be relied upon never to shy dangerously.
I Can tell story which will illustrate my
meaning. I was once driving very
gamey and intelligent but rather snappish
chestnut mare. At one point in the jour
nav if was necessary tn cross a. Ion Or covnrad
bridge. For some reason the mare paused
at the entrance and was evidently in great
alarm, but after word or two from me
she made up her mind to venture across.
She laid her ears fat back upon her head
and rushed over the bridge at the fastest
trot of which she was capable. Once
across, her fear subsidized, but SO great had
it been that she broke out in a profuse
sweat. In thus acting the mare showed the
very highest courage, and the manner in
which she comported herself on this one &C.
casion was sufficient guaranty Of her
safety as driving horse.

the hair Of the girls became very red, and
then he went after the old woman about IL.
She told him it was the water of the lake

The old man said it might be, but he was
not satisfied He ordered the old lady to
bath regularly every day with the girls,
saying that if she became red-headed he
would think there was something magic In

while she and her sister, Mrs. Olson,
were shopping on the 10th inst, they
were accosted by young Case near the
postof6ce; that he proposed calling at
the house to see Mrs. Garfield and that
he would pay her money; that later they
again met Mr.. Case and demanded to
know why he had insulted them. Case,
they allege, called Mrs. Caufe'd a vile
name, whereupon she slapped him in
the face. Mr.. Case says he oes er met
the women until they ran into him on
Villa street, and they demanded to know
why he had insulted them, and as he
brushed by Mrs CauGeld set up a yell at
the top of her voice, laying: "You can't
insult me if you are Jackson Case; I
will tell your wife, The next morn

An English Opinion of Us,

Mr.. J. G. Firth, an English writer, has
taken to discussing the characteristics Of

specially to the Americans and the New

But should you, as Che result of much pa

Sunday night last that most remark
able and gorgeous spectacular extrav :
ganza, "The Crystal Slipper, or Prince
Prettiwitz and Little Cinderella" en-
tered upon its third week at the Chica.
20 Opera House. A number of bril-
liant features were introduced on tina
occasion. Among these was new
specially by the inimitable grotesque,
Little Itch, which bids fair to become
more popular than any of his other
laughable antics. The "Tarantella."
was danced by eight of the coryphees in
manner which aroused the enthusi
asm of the audience. Large numbers
of coryphees have been added to the
present very extensive corps. II the
"Nursery Rhymes advertisement" an
added feature is the "Buttercups and
Daisies" Tweedledum and Tweedle-
dee furnished a new song and dance,
and several new comedy situations have
been evolved. The whole performance
was characterized by that rapidity and
kaleidoscope change which has become
synonymous with the presentations OF
the Crystal Slipper. More than $4,000
people witness the Crystal Slipper each
week, and the management assert that
an investigation Of the books of the
company will show that the public has
paid at least quarter of million dol
lars to witness the performance of this
marvellous spectacle. The last appear
ance of the "Crystal Slipper" in Chica
60 will be on Saturday evening, Feb
I'd. After that it will be seen in the
principal cities of the West.

MEASLES EVERY YEAR.
Singular Case Of an Omaha Man WI

Singular Case of an Omaha Man Who
Has EN- Regularly.
Many adages which are accepted by
people as absolutely true are not so in fact.
The farmer, when he finds horseshoe. is
always sure that he will be attended on his
journey with good luck, and the good
wife believes implicitly that her pork
shrinls away one-half in the skillet if the
hos is killed while the moon is in certain
phase. Doctors fear more for their
dangerous patients during the hours of
darkness, and the nurse consoles her rneasly
patient by the statement that he can be
afflicted with his disorder only twice in his
lifetime. The last assertion has its excep-
lions, while the first three are prone to be
untrue.
Many physicians and people generally
believe that the measles is malady which
never attacks the same person more than
twice, but Omah furnishes an example of
man who is af44 ted once year by this
disorder.
David R. Buck, the real-estate broker Of
that city, seven years ago was travelling
salesman through Minnesota. In the early
spring Of that year he was attacked by the
measles and was compelled to take to his
bed. When he became convalescent he
took trip across Dakota by carriage route
He started out from Minneapolis in q buggy
for the Black Hills. On his journey,
which took nearly six weeks, he was caught
in storm and the disagreeable disease re-
appeared in consequence. He was
sufferer again for long time, but finally
his physician pronounced him cured The
only trace which the disease left was q
slight deafness, and in other respects Mr..
Buck supposed he was perfectly we'll
man. In July of the following
year he was surprised to feel tho symptoms
of this febrile disorder returning. He ap-
piled to physian, who pronounced his
case Of the measles. In about three days
the red circular spots which so plainly mark
this disease appeared and gradually assumed
the crescentic form.
The patient was compelled to take first to
his room and then to his bed After a
couple of weeks of illness he grew better
and finally the disease wholly disappeared
The following July he was again amazed to
find his old symptoms returning, and he was
again victim to a measly siege of couple
Of weeks
In the July or August of each year since
he has gone through the same experience,
and he is now inclined to the belief that he
will be visited once each year by this dis
agreeable disease as long as he lives. It's
attacks, however, of late are not so severe
as formerly, and the treatment of skilled
specialist relieves the sufferer of many Of it's
unpleasant symptoms.
