The doctor regrets that the education
of the horse has been so sadly neg
lected, and that the self made or sSn
educated horse is the ruleA rather than
the exception.
For some years the doctor, who Is a
veterinary surgeon, has occupied CHAIR
in the Horse College for Diseases OF the
Eve and Ear. He is Welchman by
birth and has imported many Shetland
ponies TO this country. he has also
brought over many beautiful, sleek, con-
tralto lacks to this country from Spain.
They are held in high esteem by the
people of Spain and are called minis
ters. This is no joke, bnt living iact
and not intended 10 reflect upon the
clergy. ITO the Editor--Prooaoly this
is too true for publications.
The doctor says that he attended a
royal bull fight at the capital, and,
though accustomed to sights OF great
suffering, and having been through all
the great slaughter houses oil Chicago
and the abattoirs OF Paris, he was stlil
npprepared for the sad and sickening
sight. He had come prepared TO see
the matadors, or whatever they are
knocked about by the bull to the llvely
music of the land and had hoped that
one or two might be fatally injured, but
thew were not. Eighteen horses mort
ally gored showed, however, that the
fight had been q success. How different
people are in respect 10 their pleasures
and their methods Of relaxation!
think we all have something OF the
brute in US, but not In the same way.
Some OF US are sly and secretiye like the
fox-for instance, like the detective.
met one the other day whom ! had seen
year ago for moment. We met on
the corner of the main street, 10 front
d the postoffice, and he told me why be
was there. He was on the trail OF man
who had wrongfully taken $4,000 In
government bonds. "Ive found him.
he said, "and now I'm looking Tor the
bonds"
"Why don't you ask some OF these
people VINO are coming for their mail?'
| said, with a sheer. Then ] asked him
| IL the man wa yet at large.
"Oh, yes" be said, 1--WE are watching
him 10 see where the bonds are. Oh,
yes: you have 10 shadow a man some
times for wears. went around the
World shadowing a man last year. Saw
everything and kept him Ia sight also.
The bank paid the expense without 3
murmur. except where i had charged
the EXPENSES Of an engagement ring
worth 500 kreutzers 10 the concern be-
cause / had 10 make love 10 the Girl 10
order to pump the victim through bis
valet. who was the girls brother. They
aid 400 kreutzers was all they could
allow on that. Hist" he said, there
comes my bird now down the street,
| with no more iiea that he's my buckle
berry than a man In the moon. Glance
al him as be goes by, and / will look the
| other way"
| / did so, He was fair haired young
man. and as he went by he gave me q
Ioud and merry wink Of the other eye
Reports say that he has once more
| eluded the vigilance OF the detectives
| and As the bonds are not registered IL II
feared that they may not be recovered
till next year, and possibly not at thu
! time.
The doctor says many good things
about the horse and bow 10 break him Of
| bad tricks. Take. fer instance. the one
OF kicking aud running away when tho
tail gets over the lice. This is quit
common. and many horses must have
their tails epitomized on this account
me mate has TO 90 through the SANE
operation ia order TO match.
All this trouble may be saved by put
ting a sureingle on the horse. and afte'
pIaciug a broom handle or other round
tick under the tail tie 10 By both ends
forward 10 the surcingle. placing M
tick horizontally. 10 one night be Il
cured.
I had once a very fine horse, but h'
| mad this fatal gift OF kicking wher
,ome one dropped the line under BIZ
tan. He would mug that line with hii
massive tail and kick everything ihts
choas and run like frightened come
with its tail over the dashboard.
