Tiniest Horse in the World

The tiniest horse in the world is only
twenty -one inches in height, and is the
property OF the Marchese Carcano, Q
celebrated nobleman horse fancier
whose four-in-hand of small Shetland
ponies have taken first prizes at every
horse fair in Europe for four or fiye
years. The owner of this little horse
has put him on exhibition at the fash
ionable horse fair in Milan, Italy, at
which the Shetland ponies of queen
Victoria are also in attendance.
The Marchese Carcano told the Rome
correspondent of the New York World
that he is about to make tour of the
world with his team of Shetland
ponies, and will also take with him the
smallest horse, Leo, which has won
the gold medal at the Milan fair. Thess
five horses, the Marchese told the
World correspondent, he will have in
New York city some time next fall
to give him an opportunity Of entering
them in the annual Madison Square
garden. horse show.
Leo, the smallest horse, is a full
grown animal, which has been reared
on the stock farms of the Marchese
and is the surprising result of a mum.
Der of interesting experiments. The
smallest Shetland ponies are never un-
der eight hands high. which is equal
to thirty-two inches, and is eleven
inches taller than Leo. The latter is
no less remarkable for his perfect sym
metry than for his minute proportions.
He is a beautiful chestnut, with shag-
gy tail, which reaches almost to the
ground. His neck measures ten inches
and his head from his face is just about
six inches. From his forelegs to the
hindlegs Leo measures just as much
as his height, and his chunky legs are
exactly ten inches long.
The Marchese says he has a great
liking for miniature horses, and holds
the opinion that they do more work
for their size than an ordinary horse.
They consume less food and require
less room for stabling than the common
horse. His celebrated four-in-hand
the Marchese computes, costs him less
than twelve cents per day for food
