ARABIAN HORSES.


Their characteristics Compared with
Those Of American Trotters.
There are hundreds of horses called
Arab III America which have no right to
the name. Almost every spotted horse
or 'fcalico" harse is said to be more OF
less Arab, while it Is stated as positive
fact by no less an authority than John
FL. Wallace that an Arab may De of any
color in the world but spotted. No Arab
is calico in color. 1t is an exceedingly
difficult thing to get pure bred Arab
The Bedouin chief will not sell one at
any price, and the only ones procured
are secured by raids ON the tribes Of the
Euphrates valley.
In the whole United States there are
only three strictly pure bred Arabian
horses. Two Of these are the stations
Leopard and Linden Tree, which were
presented to General Grant by the sui
tan of Turkey, and mare called Naomi,
which has been imported from England
Of the two Grant stations Leopard is
not at all prepotent horse and is get
ter of few foals. and Linden Tree is the
possessor of one of the ugliest tempers of
any living horse. He is said to be a fiend
incarnate, though his colts are gentle
and kind enough when properly treated
1t is popularity Of the Arabs that if
used kindly and treated with considera-
ton they are gentle and Ioyable
To one that has gained the confidence
of an Arab horse there is the pleasure of
knowing that he associates with q brute
nit A e
them, and you have aroused devil that
can never be subdued, for of their cour-
age there is no limit, and they will re-
sist abuse while they have life. General
Grants stallion Linden Tree Is said to
have been made vicious because the man
N charge of him did not gain his conf
dence and abused him.
There is great deal of foolish senti-
ment existing about the Arab horse,
however. He has many good qualities,
is highly intelligent, quick to learn, has
rare beauty Of form and rich quality, is
for saddle purposes beautifully gated.
quick and active in his movements, and
of much endurance; but when compared
with the thoroughbred race horse or the
American trotter he suffers much BY the
comparison.
He lacks the size and speed of the
thoroughbred, and what a spectacle a
Maud S, a Jay-Eye-See, Stalnboul,
Nelson would make of the greatest trot-
ting Arab that ever lived could they meet
on trotting truck.
As race they are handsomer than the
American trotters, many Of which have
inherited Roman heads and cat hams
from the great progenitor, Rysdyk's
Halnbletonian If it could be done with
out a loss of size and speed, for the pur-
pose of giving beauty and finish to the
American trotter, it might be well to
add more Of the Arab blood to the COM
posite article which goes to make up the
American trotter, but the experiment
has been tried and not found successful.
No Arab known to civilized man is SO
handsome as Mambrino King.-Boston

Our Would BE Aristocrats.

Thousands of American young men of
fair education and excellent possibilities,
captivated by the pictures of English
aristocratic life drawn in English novels,
are learning to despise the simple, ra-
tional, useful life of the worthy Amer
lean citizen, and to court consideration
and vulgar popularity by adopting the
habits and leading the useless lives OF
English lords. AS is usual in such cases
the copy is caricature Of the original
The untitled American lord proves usu-
ally TO be vulgar creature, having to
assert his self-conferred lordship by all
that's most unattractive, most inhumane
and most un-Amercan-apd that Is
good deal-in the English aristocrat-
In England aristocracy has no need to
disnlay or to obtrude itself; in America
it can exist only by display and obtru-
sion. For this reason the American
would be nobleman must necessarily
court attention and try to strike the vul-
gar imagination by the mere accidentals
of aristocracy, such as any boorish Dives
can conmand-houses. horses, turnouts,
yachts, opera boxes and the like. And
the vulgar are impressed by such things,
bow down in servile reverence before
them and do their best tomake similar

Proof of the Earth,s Motion.

Take good sized bowl, fill it nearly
full of water and place it upon the floor
of the room which is not exposed to
shaking or jarring from the street
Sprinkle over the surface of the water a
coating of lycopodium POWDER white
substance which is sometimes used by
ladies in making their toilet, and which
can be purchased of any druggist. Next
upon the surface of this coating of white
powder make with powdered charcoal a
straight black line, say an inch or two IN
length. Having made this little black
mark on the surface of the contents of
the bowl. lay down upon the floor close
to the bowl stick or some other straight
object, so that it viii he exactly parallel
with the charcoal mark. IF the line
happens to be parallel with q crack in
the floor or with any stationary object in
the room this Will serve as well.
Leave the bowl undisturbed for few
hours, and then observe the position of

shifted its position from east to west

thing else in the bowl around with it.
