thinking OF seeking the nomination as

oppose him. A. j. Laird will try and
capture the nomination as sheriff,
while the friends of John NJ. Wiley
think he would make a good sheriff.
J, L, Sheridan Is being talked OF for

office at one time and looked after the
Interests Of the tax payers in good

Grant county, is talked OF for the leg

county with grace. Judge NJ. w.

A WOMAN HORSE BREAKER
She Meets Success by Never Shove
Ing the Slightest Fear OF
Her Mount.

It is universally agreed, that even
homely woman who has mastered the
art of equestrianism looks well when
in the saddle. When the rider is pretty
and sits on her horse with ease and
grace of course the beauty of the pic
ture is much enhanced. Hence it is
that Mrs. Annie Benson, wife of pros
porous farmer living near FowbIes
burg, Nd, is regarded by all who know
her to be an exceedingly pretty sight
when seated on her favorite thorough.
bred mare. Mrs. Benson is a slender.
blue-eyed country woman of we'll
rounded figure and has been riding
horses almost ever since she can re.
member anything. She began riding
when she was five years old. and heI
father used to put her on the back OF
great animal while he guided the
plow behind. She has broken colts
been kicked and bitten by horses,
thrown out of buggies and had divers
other experiences of the kind, but has
never been thrown from the back of
horse. Mrs. Benson says, in discussing
the difficulties which confront girls
Just beginning to ride:
''The entire secret of being a good
rider, think, lies in not being afraid
of you1 horse. This is the one great es-
Sential, but there are some other
things just as necessary to know.
When d girl gets on horse if she is in
the least bit frightened the horse

moralizing effect upon it, especially
if it happens to be thinking horse.

enc day a horse i was riding caught
its hind foot in the skirt and tore it off
me. Since then / have ridden with a
short walking length and find it much
better. l do not think it would help a
girl much to tide astride like a man in
managing herhorse. Ihave ridden that
way, but felt that if the horse started
to run could not stop him at all.
II am breaking two colts now that
will make beauties. One was two years
old on May % and the other a few
months older. My method oftraining
is hard 10 describe. I simply put the
bride and saddle on them and then

old, but these were such big fellows
