Tho Short Check Rein.

To keen 4 horse from putting his
head down and eating OF trying TO
find something to eat--for, no differ
euce how we'll the horse is fed, when
ne is harnessed and taken out he IS
ready for bite o: grass if attainable,
and that is not always pleasant-the
check-rein is the resort, though many
times when using a team on the road
the check-reias are dispensed with.
I prefer the side checks, as they are
far more agreeable to the horse and
will even better prevent the horse
from putting its head to the ground
than the over-cLeck when both are
loosely used.
The oyer-check wears of the name,
presses down on the head and helps
to keep it hot and sometimes makes
sore places and mars the horses face.
But the over-check may do if it is long
enough and does not have separate
bit for.it
Some horses are so physically con-
structed with the neck high up on the
shoulders that their head is high
enough without a check-rein, while
others may have n low neck and not
carry the head we'll up, anano amount
of check-reins will add any grace to
their movements or beauty to their
carriage.
To see horses head drawn up out
of its natural position looks outlan'
dish, at times the hot sun blazing
down in their eyes so they cannot
we'll see where they are going, and
they travel high, something after the
stvle OF blind horse, and they soon
get to travelling heavy; then their
spring, activity and elasticity are last
leaving them.
A horse with short check.rein is
invariably a slow walker and doesn t
care to trot unless urged-and who
can blame him?-and yet L have
often noticed that all the short check
reins don't belong to the unGodly.
Kind reader, did you ever think that
when man was given dominion over
the beasts OF the field that 1t was en-
pected he would torture the faithful,
Woodworking animal with the short
check-reiu? And to see horse with
two bits in his mouth, holding lips
apart, the saliva drooling ont, the
tongue dry, the lips chafed, gives
them a very uninvitinS appearance.
Ny best plan to make a horse have
graceful carriage to the head IS
few more oats, or, if he is getting
enough Of them, arrange for little
less work and get things III balance
again rs soon as you can.
In natural position IS when tAe
horse appears at It's best; it IS then
he Is bc&! prepared to travel or pIii
loads. II fact, find nothing III
particular to recommend the over
check above the Side-chccE, not ever
the cost OF them, for [ see by consult
| inc some lists that the over cheek costs
twenty per cent. more than the side
check. Il. C. Green, in Farm, Fielc

AT the regular meeting Of the
board Of directors of the Y NJ. c. A.
Monday night G. j. Fredrickson re-
signed his position as general secre-
tary, which he has so successfully
filled for the past four years. His
reason for fesigning is his recent ap-
pointment as deputy county treasurer,
the dlties of which Office require the
most OF his time There was no al
ternativ,. given the board so the resig-
nation was accepted. All who are
at all acquainted with the Y. NJ. c. A.
work in Canon know that its life dur
ing the past few years has depended
upon the earnest work and sacrifice
of MIR. Fredrickson. During the two
years following the panic its exist
ence was almost impossible but for
the greatest sacritices made by those
interested. To Mr.. Fredrickson is
due the honor OF saving The instltu-
tion through those paniey times, and
now the association is in good shape
and will do fine work during the com
ing year.
Cliff W. Hardy, who has been filling
the position Of physical director, was
unanimously elected general secretary.
He will also have charge of the gym
nasium. Mr.. Hardy is a college man
well trained in Y. NJ. C. A. work, has
had fair success with his gymnasium
work and will no doubt give as good
satisfaction as general secretary.
Unfortunately for him, he is too nearly
related to the RECORD man to receive
much praise or recommendation in
these columns.

Seventeen Of the new states have Indian
names, and it Is curious fact that only
one state bears the name Of any great
man Of our country. and that is the state
of Warrington. One other state chose
the name Of Franklin. and kept II for
some time, but for some reason 1t did
not stick, and was changed to Tennes-
see. But the great man has - counties

don't see why some OF the new states
that came In sfser the revolution were
not named for Adauns and Je5serson

Henry and other fathers Of liberty. But
I suppose that even these great men had
their enemies in congress. and they com
promised on the Indians. Partisan poll

Two new buildings for the early fu-

corner Main and Eighth, and they
contemplate putting up fine church
building some time in the near future.

The Presbyterian people have for

unlikely that some definite arrange
ments will be made for the new build
some time during this year. Both
churches will be finer than ordinary
and will add much to the attractive

"South Before the War"

The South Before the Warp will be
at the opera house the coming week.
1t is an entertainment worthy of the
attention of all theatre gOers, and
lovers of good singing and dancing
and the fun of minstrelsy. The COM
pany is composed of fifty artists all
OF whom are noted for their peculiar
talent, and they depict story of true
southern life in slavery times. AL
though the company is largely COM
posed of colored performers, the prin-
cipal characters are taken by white
artists who stand pre-eminently in the
front ranks of minstrelsy. The stage
pictures are certainly true to nature.
The cotton picking scene with the
colored people picking cotton on the
plantation, and the rich melodies by
the company awaken the sympathetic
and music loving soul.
To Mr.. Martell belongs the credit
as originator in bringing before the
public the artistic talents of the COL
ored people, and owing to the artistic
and financial success of his venture,
it has found many imitators, the ma
jority of whom have more or less pi-
rated version and transcriptions of his
original stage pictures so altered as
to avoid the laws interference. 1t is
left to the public to judge for them
selves the artistic merits of the play.
