Training Colts.

The first lesson given the colt
should begin when the colt is a
month old. 1t should be halter
broken and taught to lead, and
when the time comes to educate it
will not be necessary to teach the
colt to lead. The second lesson
should begin when the colt is two
years old. Go into the stall and
lay the harness on the manger or
floor and let the colt look and smell
till he knows it will not injure him,
and then pick the harness up and
lay it on his back as quietly as pos

Scientists assert that early man usec

ton of pleasure, or to brush away fife
from under his back hair; but as thu
muscles were not brought into continue

There seems to be a mistake,
in the above; as we know of
one at least, a contemporary,
who keeps the flies from his

kind of an article that will fool

OPPOSITION TO MR. MORGAN.
SOME MEMBERS OF THE FIFTH AVENUE
CHURCH NOT PLEASED WITH
THE CALL.

INQUIRIES made yesterday among members OF the
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church made 1t clear
that the recommendation Of the Pulpit Committee
TO call the Rev. @. Campbell Morgan Of London.
England to succeed the late Dr. Hall will he op-
posed by many OF the congregation. Several Of
the members Of the church who were seen yester-
day were indignant that the majority Of the COM
mittee had decided 10 present candidate whose
unanimous Endorsement was impossible. Some Of
these members said they would not only vote
against the recommendation. but would speak al
the congregational meeting. urging others to do
likewise. In each instance the men with whom a
Tribune reporter talked spoke highly Of Mr.. Nor
gan personally but they thought he was not ex-
acty suited for the pulpit Of the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian Church.
Mr. Morgan" one Of them said. as an evan
gelist before everything else, and our church does
not want minister Of the evangelical type. Mt
Morgan is a brilliant preacher and a man Of high
attainments but he Is not the kind OF a pastor
that our church requires. What We desire Is a
minister who will not only preach TO us but VINO,
like the late Or. Hail. will be an adviser. who VIII

with the choice made by the committee and
know that many others are also. I understand
that the members Of the Session who served upon
the committee urged Mr.. Morgan's selection. For
some time there has been a great deal or quiet
murmuring against the Session. and know that II
a Of the church were taken the Session would
be condemned for the attitude Il has taken in the
Warszawiak matter Some OF the members OF that
body have been aiming 10 put the church on what
they call a democratic basis. and II is because they
thought Mr. Morgan would attract the multitude
that they urged his cand1ature.
1T IS true that Mr.. Morgan did MI the church
whenever he preached. but the pennies that were
not suffice 70 meet the expenditures necessary TO
keep the church and its missions In good IMAM
cial position. The Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church has a sphere Of its own. When Dr. Han

The traditions Of the church should continue to be

July IL. 1857. Her husband was then twenty
seven years Old while she some years his
senior.
Four years before. her husband had been
elected Fellow OF All Souls College. oxford.
and had been returned TO Parliament for STAN
ford. The early years of their married life were
passed in comparative obscurity. They had lit
tie money and lived in lodgings off the Strand.
The future Prime Minister added to his slender
income by writing. This he did for The
Times The Morning Chronicle" and The
Saturday Review" and the quarterlies. In 1868
Lord Robert Cecil became Viscount Cranborne,
and heir to the Marquisate through the death
OF his eldest brother. 1t was then that his
political career really began. AS her husband
advanced in rank and station Lady Salisbury
filled every place with grace and tact With
advancing years she grew to care less for social
functions but until her Illness some years
ago, she never remiss in her duties as
hostess, and when her husband has been in
office these have been Of the most onerous char
acter
Lord and Lady Salisbury have had five sons
and three daughters. one of the latter died in

in 1861: the Rev. Lord Rupert William Ernest

Lady Salisbury had been in poor health for
many years, and in July suffered a second stroke
of paralysis. Since then her health had been
precarious. Lord Salisbury has been constant
in his devotion to her and in order 10 be with
her has for many months turned over as much
Of the public business as possible 10 other
hands. There have for some time been per
sistent rumors that in the event Of the death or
his wife Lord Salisbury would as soon as pos
sible retire from public life.

A THRILLING DETECTIVE STORY.
THE STAR AND THE WOMAN WHO NET
HER HUSBAND BEFORE SHE DID.


HER HUSBAND BEFORE SHE DID
The press agent hath made his nnesterptece
lie mad good deal Of material to make II Of and
that, strange as It may seem is the reverse OF
saying that he made II out of whole cloth. There
is reason TO suppose that pretty much all Of the
things that are said to have happened really did
happen. The press agent merely took advantage
OF them The affair has occupied the attention OF
the papers that enjoy such things for some days.
There is a star actress now playing in town. and
she has a husband Thus begins the incredible
tale. And this husband. marvellous to relate had
been honored with the acquaintance Of other
en- before he ever met his present wife. There was
one in particular. Since the star was married TO
her husband she has played two engage
ments in NewYork besides the present one. But
never before, though It will scarcely be believed
has she ever thought to place detectives at the
door Of the theatre to keep the woman who used
10 know her husband in Boston from coming in.
But when she began her present engagement she
put two detectives at the door. and said 10 them
Don't LEI that woman in" The detectives after
the manner OF their kind Ghey had read the "Od
Sleuth" stories. but never Sherlock Homes'O. put
their heads together and worked out several clews
but the got into the theatre. through
opening in their net which they had not thought
Of and which nobody could be expected TO think Of
She got I'm simply because the detectives who were
there with their eyes OF hawks looking for her had
never seen Her DeIOre, OlO not KNOW what HHe
looked like at all, and therefore had TO choose be-
tween stopping all the women who tried TO 20 into
the theatre and stopping OF them.
on another evening the star woman in
box whose face she could not distinguish Since
she could not tell positively that this woman
not the one to whose presence she objected she
did not her way clear to continuing the play,
so she lowered the curtain and caused the party In
the box to withdraw from the sunshine Of her
presence. on still another evening the actual
woman did actually the blockade OF the de-
tectives. having an unaccountabe determination 10
see this particular play rather than any Of the
other excellent ones that now in town. and was
afterward requested to leave the house. She took
a stenographer with her. in order that n she were
removed from the theatre the exact wording OF her
removal might be taken down accurately, for the
future benefit of the courts and the press agent.
She is reported intimating now that she was
good deal damaged by missing that play, and that
she will get the amount Of the damage from the
actress and her husband by legal process or she
will know what is the matter with the legal process
