Senator and Mrs. Stanford spent a few

the Senate before starting for California.
Senator Stanford has been suffer- from
the grip, and its after effects were such that
lie could walk only with difficulty. lie has
not fully recovered from the breaking IF the
tympanum OF his right ear during his stay
IN Europe, and he is very deaf.
Il feel as well as ever" he said, "but 1t is
almost impossible for me to walk much
without assistance. So long as / may sit
by window and read / seem well, but il
have anything 10 do or must converse, then
/ seem far from my former self"
Senator Stanford said he looked forward
with pleasure 10 his return TO California
and he spoke of the university and his
hopes and expectations for it with evident
enthusiasm. Ills horses, too, he sad he
wanted to see again. How | love a horse"
he sad, 'and l always did, though the more

Quain ed with them the more love them.

tellect-than his other parts. lie must have
a wii-pOwer, which counts for more in the
race than his muscles. A colt must enter
into The spirit OF the one that drives him i'm

in training n colt 1t is a great and
almost an essential thing TO make friends
with him. Let him know nat he is to DO

to learn. He will understand that in the
sharp, hot strife of the track he is to help
the driver, and that the driver is in sympa-
thy with him, and he settles down Tor the
pace that breaks records.
Il have rule on MY farm that the train
ers shall never strike one of the horses Il
Is also against the rules to swear at or talk
loudly to the horses. 1t is an essential
thing that the trainer should never lose his
temper, and II man can neither swear nor
talk loudly be can give no exhibition that
he has lost his temper.
The colt must be made to enter into the
spirit of his work, and for this reason l
established my Kindergarten for colts. l
have little track about 300 feet long in
regulation shape, and on this the colts. even
Whlle they are babies, are taught the ele-
ments OF the race. They speed away on
tins track IN the mornings for their exercise.
They enjoy it. and before they reach the
age OF pr etlce on the race track they have
learned to trot before they know it.
he horse may be made TO do more work
and live longer at his best by proper treat
ment than he now does, aud this is an in-
portant thing for the American people to
consider. Horses should not be over
