than those doing duty in the ten troops of
United States cavalry.
In a post like Fort Myer. away from the
Indian campaigning of the frontier and
only occasionally called upon for COM
paratively small practice marches, the life
of the cavalry horse Is quite as luxurious
as that of the money-making racer. The
army regulation which provides for the
punishment of the enlisted cavairyman
who neglects his horse Is quite unnecessa-
ry. There is In fact, more need of a regu-
lation prohibiting the men from coddling
their horses.
Attentive to the Horses.
Stable and water CALI which goes twice
day in cavalry posts, is function which
all hands have to attend, but it does not
require the signal of the trumpeter to bring
the cavalryman to the stall Of his horse
He is likely to be hanging around the stall
nearly all Of the time that he is not other-
wise engaged. If he gets hold Of big,
juicy red apple at the barracks, does the
goes to the corral and gives it to his
horse. little instance of this sort illus
trates the relationship between the animal
and the man. The horse repays the man
for his unSelfshness by unvarying fidelity.
Stable and water call is sounded in the
morning within less than half an hour af-
ter mess call. The men scarcely have time
to eat their breakfasts before they are
early morning needs of their horses. The
cavalryman would prefer to attend to his
horse before eating his breakfast. He is
impatient to see how BILL or Jack" or
Mike has made out during the night
There is a commotion in the stalls when
the troops are marched into their respec-
tive stables under the direction of the
troop officers.
The horses know stable and water call
as well as the men, and keep up a constant
whinnying until the soldiers make their
first appearance Of the day at the stables
They fall suddenly quiet when their riders
hop into the stalls, although they appear
to be literally trembling with JOY over the
q Getting. They exhibit a strong tendency
to engage in the nose-rubbing style of saIu-
tation with their care takers and are very
often indulged.
A Typical COnversatiOn.
We'll, Bill, how'd you sleep last night?'
says the soldier to his horse.
The horse mods his head up and down
rapidly to express satisfaction, and ex-
ecutes little skittish prance.
Like them oats?'
More prancing and nose rubbing against
the soldiers stable blouse.
Think you'd like little water, hey?
And some corn? Say, BILL you're getting

Horse shakes his head depreca.insly.
Yes, you are, Bill. And 1t won't do,

He would regard as insane the ''junfper'

doubt as to whether the horse understood
his revelations in these intimate hugger-

does appear to thoroughly know his rider

The PIucLy Blue jay.

From tie Mechan's N"Brhly.
My raspberry patch is fifty feet square.
surrounded by wire fence. SO many
birds make their home in the wooded rooms
within ten feet that 1t is necessary TO pro-
tect this patch by netting, which is sup
ported by wires strung overhead. The net
hangs over the sides of the fence three or
four feet. Occasionally bird gets inside,
especially the blue jay. We catch them
and let them go unharmed. Yesterday my
man and myself were near and saw a blue
jay in there with ripe red raspberry in
his bill, iuttering against the net. My
man went inside and chased him from one
side 10 another three times, and finally
got his hands on him at where the fence
rail and net met, but the bird managed
to slip through his hands and down be-
tween the net and the outside Of the fence
and gained his liberty. All this time he
hung on to the berry and flew away with il.
That certainly is good illustration OF bird
pluck.

Firc-PrnGf Wire GlnSS.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
Some recent tests of the value of wired
glass are given in a recent report of the
Boston Mutual Fire Insurance Company
and are believed to indicate the important
relation of that material to fre-proof work
An experimental test was made with an or
binary brick structure of . feet high, pro-
yided on one side with a Wire-giass roof
and a roughened glass on the other side
windows and q glass door with wooden
frames lined with tin: and this building
was filled with roSn-Saturatcd wood 10 q
height of feet. ON firing. the ordinary
glass cracked and fell at once while the
wired glass remained. notwit hstanaing the
heat was so great as 10 crack the walls Of
the building The theory OF such glass
standing the heat IN this manner is said 10
be that the glass, under the first influence,
of the heat, cracks but is held in place by
the wires, but, rs The heat Increases the
glass becomes fused again at 1t lower tenn
perature than the wire, and. being a poor
conductor OF heat, such glass and the wire
protect each other.

Intelligent Horses.

rle horses Of three of the troops at
Fort Myer are bays. Those Of the other
troop are black. The trumpeters. of whom
there are two in each troop. ride pure
white horses. The horses of the mounted
band are of mixed colors, especially Sc
lected for the use of bandsmen.
Nearly all of these horses are blooded
animals from Kentucky. To get into the
cavalry horse must fill as many physical
requirements as the cavalry recruit, which
is saying a great deal. Above all, he must
have a head packed full of horse sense. 1t
makes no difference how fiery he may be
in fact, the more fiery, the better-but he
must be amenable to reason and subject to
