some of the elders of the family, but

from our country home, and dined at a
restaurant, that we might take our place

at the thought of papa spending such a
sum on me. 1t weighed upon me. Present.

great occasion; 1t is something for you to
tell your grandchildren fifty years hence"
The great concert hall was crammed to
sufrocation. Suddenly there came a great
hush, and Charles Dickens slim, gentle
manly figure. in his evening dress, with his
favorite cen ella in his buttonhoIe, ap.
peared on lhe dais. He bowed and bowed
repeatedly, ard the audience-the guinea
for quite five minutes. He seemed pleased
but very weary and frail, and he did not
attempt to speak until, at last the noise
quite subsidized. Then his voice at first
sounded thin and boyish, but later it grew
more powerful and fuller of feeling.
He read the christmas Carol and selec-
tions from "Pickwick." 1t was rather
dramatic recitation than a reading, for he
seemed to know it all by heart, and looked
fer away down the hall and seldom at his
book. The audience. too, knew the pieces
well, and often roared out the end of
sentence before he had time to pronounce

A HORSE MIND READER.
An Expert Trainer Says That Horse
Are Like Men.

An Expert Trainer Says That Horses
Are Like Men.
From the Agriculturist.
Horses are almost as superstitious as
men. but, unlike men, they can be reasoned
with and made broadminded, liberal. free
thinking philosophers. The horse Is the
noblest animal that walks the earth. He
has most Of the good traits of the human
race, with some Of the bad ones" 1t was
Prof. Bartholomew who spoke in this ex-
allied strain about the horse.
when a youth I was a cowboy. and one
of the rough riders of the west. Like other
cowboys, I delighted in a buckiny broncho,
but I soon learned that the wildes. horse
can be tanned in an hour so that he will
follow his rider about and let himself be
ridden without a struggle. I have tanned
hundreds Of horses fresh from the prairies.
and never failed to make a complete con-
quest in a short time. I treat horses as in
telligent beings and after a manner ask
them If they can do things. Often they re-
fuse, and again they say as plainly as IL
and they do it.
II train my horses in classes. take a
dozen and ask each to do a certain thing.
Some will start blindly, while others will
step up briSkly and say, Yes, I can do
that Then I ask them to do something
else, and then those who are quickest at
first will halt. while those who made no re-
Spouse before are anxious to do the thing.
Thus I soon learn the class of work each
is especially fitted for, and develop them
along their special lines. In this way they
are just like men. Now, I have tried nu-
merous ways to make living outside of
horses, but always fail and drift back to
my hobby.
"Horses are like men in the amount of
courage they can muster up. If I want a
horse to do extra long Jumps 1 select q
creature that is finely built and has all the
physical qualities, but perhaps he is cow
ard and afraid to leap. Some little, half
developed creature possessed with q dare

The Garbage Situation.

Next Monday morning the Commission
ers will give hearing to Contractor War

TEN or systems of cremation for garbage
disposal will be acceptable ito them. They
will order the contractor to forthwith pro-
coed with the erection of the plants and
push their construction as rapidly as posi-
BILE. Everything has been ready for some
time. but the Commissioners for some I'M
explained reason held the matter up. There
is little doubt that the Smith system will
be insisted upon by the Commissioners, and
If two plants are decided upon they will
allow the contractor to name the other sys-
tenn. He has already stated his preference
for the Brown system.
