the lead some tall running was INDUCED
In, and he was eventually cut off. a
horse called Brown Dick got to the wire
first, and in spite Of Jim'S protests, he
was given the heat. and no horse was set
back for running. In the next two heats
Jim drove with daredevil reckless
ness which had never seen before,
and hope never to see again. At times
it appeared as though q fatal collision
was inevitable, but at the critical mo-
ment there was only q slight rattle
among the SpOkes, and jim was out of
his pocket and IN the lead. Before the
race and between each heat the betting
had been very heavy, and every spare
dollar | had in the world was UP on the
race. The excitement before the fourth
heat was tremendous, and, as for my
self, | had a terrible forbodinG that
something awful was about to happen.
When the word was given, jim had
little the worst of the start, and at the
first turn he was neatly pocketed with
one horse in front Of him and one by his
side, and i'm spite of all his efforts. the
the position remained unchanged until
the homeStrctch was reached. here
Jim looked back for q moment to see
that the track was clear, checked his
the middle of the track, where he had
two sulkieS OH each side of him. From
there to the wire it was . race for life.
The colt came like the wind, but the
horses on each side of him, urged to
Supreme effort. held their own, and at
the distance post they appeared to be
all trotting abreast. They were trotting
perilOusly close together, and it looked
as If Jim's sulky must inevitably be
smashed. But the race was reaching
its eliminating point. The wire was
only few yards away, and Jim led by
half length. Suddenly the driver of
the near horse gave him a terrible cut,
and with one bound he was in the
Sweryed. There was sickening
crash right at the wire, and poor jim
lay bleeding and motiOnlesS upon the
track. ] picked him up tenderly and
took him to his own bunk at the stable,
where careful examination by the
doct0r disclosed the fact that poor Jim
had trOtted his last race. | took the

And as repeated the last words of

Horses.
Notes About the Flyers and
Breeders Gathered From
Many Quarters.

Upon general principles the large
mare is the best, either for work or
breeding. A large frame ordinarily
means greater vitality. The organs are
larger aud they have more room in
which to do their work. We have be-
tore called attention to the fact that
large men, as a rule. ale longer lived
than small men. There would seem
to be good reason for it. The
lungs are larger, and the heart is
larger, and the stomach is larger,
and the larger these organs are
the better they do their work.
But while large, roomy mare is desira-
bic, il must not be forgotten that we can
easily breed a larger size Of horses by
using large stations and our small
mares if we have them. 1t is to be re-
GREETED, as often noticed, that more care

Adventures of a $1,000 Note.

Bank notes of 81 900 are not so COM
mon that the adventures of one may be
worth a brief narration. They connect
themselves with sad tale of the dan
gers Incurre ed by inheriting fortune.
Edward Gillett. the last owner of the
subject of this memoir, was a brick
layer, who, in his old age became pos
sessed of considerable wealth. There
upon he followed the example of the
man who was told that the au thenticity
of the three heavenly witnesses had
been disproved, and ''took to drink.
ing" In December, 1879. he received
the note as part of his legacy, and kept
it in his pocket a month. The
pocket of an elderly drunkard is no
place for respectable note to
remain in, and at the end of the
month this specimen of portable prop
escape Gillett was helplessly intoxicated,
and he spent the evening Of his days in
Darenth asylum. Mr.. Gillett is de-
scribed by his daughter. with fiial in
sight and candor, as childish, self
willed, obstinate, and hardly ever
sober" He was in the habit of ''fiour-
iShing the note about" and the only
wonder is that it was not speedily -four
ished into the pocket of somebody else.
The son gave the number to the police,
the note was stopped at the bank. and
nothing more has been heard of it from
that day TO this. At last the Gilletts have
succeeded in getting another. The bank
kindly offered to invest 81, 900 for them
in consols and pay them the interest.
But the bills of exchange act, passed in
1922, gives the public better terms than
these. 1t provides that where a bank
note has been lost the holder may OBJ
tain similar one by giving an inden-
nifty in case the note should turn up and
should be cashed. This the Gilletts
were willing to do, ana the bank has
therefore been ordered 10 pay them the
sum demanded. This is obviously fair,
for nobody loses, whereas If the plaintiff
had failed there would have been
dead loss to the family of $1,000.

TRAINING HORSES.
Lines on which the Fast Trotters
Must Be Developed.


A horse is what he is made. This is
another way of saying that the colts in
herited predisposition to trot can be de-
velopcd into its fullest activity only by.
early, patient and Intelligent training,
says Wallace's Monthly. But the art
of training must itself he developed
through experience and careful study of
the nature, the inheritance and pc
culiarities of families and of indiVidu-
ais. Breeders are naturally attracted
by the immediate rewards in the shane
of fame and money, and in their
anxiety 10 secure these rewards
the training is carried to the
point of straining. The true theory of
training is the careful and progressive
development of the colts powers by eX-
erciSing them till he has reached the
perfection OF physical vigor, and has at
the same time acquired the mental bal
ance necessary to putting forth his
greatest powers, as well as the courage
and resolution 10 keep him up to his
best in in q con inued effort. When
this is done, without injury, the indi-
vidual becomes progenitor fit to re-
produce (WhGn iudiclouSly mated) not
only what he has himself inherited, but
to add the developed capacity to per-
form TO his Inheritance. and thus tn
make further advances possible.
Before we get the two-minute trotter
we must have sireS and dams capable
Of producing him; and if we have not
these already we must breed and de-
velop them on the lines above indicated.
When the nonpareil trotter does appear,
l venture to assert that he will repre-
sent distinguished ancestry of pro
ducers and performers; and, more than
all, he will represent brains. He may
come from Kentucky. from the great
West, from California, or from Maine;
but wherever he comes from. his
breeder and his trainer will be firm be-
lievers in breeding, feeding and speed
ing as Indispensable elements in the
production of that ''roof and crown" of
the animal Kingdom, the American
trotting horse.

A CHRISTMAS TRor.
A SOutherner's Story Related in

"Ah!" said the Southernor, ''iG is a
popular belief that our people are
welded to the thoroughbred, and that

tions, but owned one of the gamest,
truest trotters that ever lived, and what
was better still, he was handled and
driven by man who never sold a race.

backed another mans horse TO win, and
drove only for second money. Yes, Jim
was very dark niger. but he was true
as steel to me; through my dark
days he was faithful and honest,
and when ! gratified his favorite
desire by buying trottlng colt
which he had set his heart upon
| thought his gratitude would know
no bounds. Jim had been North, had
spent two years as rubber for one of
the leading trainers of that time, and
was fairly we'll up in the business. As
the event turned out, it was most I'M
proved TO be trotter, and could easily
beat anything on four legs in the neigh
bOrhood of Charleston, and two or three
local sports who had imported from the
West fast trOtterS to beat him had been
ANONYMOUSLY defeated. With each
victory poor Jim wore more jaalty
air, and his opponents, smarting Hom
defeat and consequent financial losses,
laid plot to down him. 1t is just saven
years ago that they announced special
trot to come off on Christmas day for
purse OF $500 and Jim promptly entered
his colt. -Four other horses were nom
mated and the betting was very
heavy. In drawing for posi-
tions Jim got the outside, and
it was quite evident from the start to
the finish that three Of the four drivers
were paying special attention to him,
while the fourth drove for all he was
worth TO win the heat. At every turn
he was taken out to the fence, and il

Value of Brood Mares.

Primrose, brood mare at the Wood
burn farm, KY, is now carrying her
twentieth foaI, yet the oldest of her
colts is only twenty years. and eighteen
of her family are alive. 1t is expected
that she will breed several years yet.
Miss Russell. the dam of Maud S, has
her seventeen foal. Dalia has produced
eighteen foals. Waterwitch produced
nineteen foals. A great brood mare is
worth more to farmer than stallion.
She will do his work and produce as
many colts as abe is years old if properly
cared for until he is twenty.
