Its enemies. The curious thing is that the
foal is quite as swift as It's parents. When
one looks at it, even In its ,domesticated
condition, it seems to be all legs. and. one
Is surprised to see how easily the slight
body is borne along on those long legs
beside the mother, even when she Is run
ming at her swiftest rate. In that fact
lies the safety Of the wild horse from
destruction. and the thousands of genera
lions IN which that useful animal has been
domesticated have brought no change in
the peculiar conformation of the fOaIs
limbs, though 1t is no longer needed for
its original purpose. 2 =, S 4 Z
Another curious thing Is that one OF
the faults Of the horse of which we are
apt to complain, we mean the habit Of
shying, is q survival of an old habit
which was useful and necessary when its
ancestors were still roaming wild upon
the plains. Then every horse was con-
stantly on the outlook for an enemy, and
1t did not look .chly with one eye. It
habitua1ly kept turning its ear in all di-
rections, so as to catch the slightest
sound which should indicate the presence
of danger. Not only when a wolf was
seen did the herd take flight; any sound.
as Of the wolf breaking through the long
grass, caused an instantaneous stampede,
and something Of that habit still survives.
the horse seldom fears the objects which
It sees unless they appear suddenly; but
the sudden appearance of some light thing
driven by the wind, or some slight sound
that perhaps may not be heard by his
master may cause an instant and invOl-
untary shy, such as the poor brute would
instinctively make If he were still wild
upon the Eplains. How unjust il. is, and
how utterly stupid, to justify his terror
by whipping him for such a fault! To, do
81 IS to make him only so much the
reader to shy again.. remembering-7an
he is sure to remember that even if
there has been no reason for his involun-
tary shying. there is something. to dread
Immediately afterward. The only sensible
way to deal with this remnant Of wild
ness in the domesticated horse is to stop
and let him feel that there is nothing
to fear, and so break do ~ the remnant
Of his old and perfectly, snatura! habit
of fright from possible danger.

Prescott, Ariz., Sept. 26.-(SpsciaI Correspondence Of The Republican)- The republican county committee of Yavapai county held a meeting last evening upon the call of the secretary and acting chairman, J. E. Morrison, at the law offices of J. E. Morrison and John C. Forrest in this city, when. the resignation of Dr. J. M Barrett as chairman of the committee was pre- sented and accepted, and the resigna- ton of J. E. Morrison as secretary uf the committee was a SC presented and accepted. MT. J. E. Morrison was then unanimously elected chairman of the committee, aud Mir. John C. Forrest was elected as secretary of the com mittee. This shows that the republi- can party is "bracing up' in the coun- ty, and getting ready for the next years work, and beginning early. The members of the committee are young and progressive business men and we expecet to see great results accomplished by this party throughout the county in the next year.
 The funeral of the late John T. Shull, who died in this city on Sum day morning last, took place this morning from the family residence. The services were conducted by the Rev. MT.

There was a great profusion of flowers and the interment was one of the largest IoJl Il,4e hull wal and very favorably known throughout the northern portion of the territory, and his loss is deeply felt by the bereaved members Of his household, of whom there are his wife, three sons and two daughters. It is the intention now of Mrs ShulI to try tl-i carry on the business Of her late husband with the help of her two elder sons, as this will be her main stay and support. The estate is some what encountered with debts, owing to the fact of the late proprietor heinz a creditor to a large extent of mum erOuS accounts accumulated during his many years running of the livery business here. He, however, was in sured in small amounts in E-th the Worknen and Woodmen lodges, which will take care Of the present necessi-
  felt sympathy of all the community in her aff1ictiCn and that Of her family.

rior is anxious to see her now when she is growing into womanhoCd. He fesls toe that he is a citizen rathes than a ward of the United States, and Is capable of rearing his girl, even though her period of learning has given her polish.
 It is almost needless to say that Chief Jackson and Scout Axe know every trail and crevice of the country in Yavapai county They did valu- able service for the government, but feel rewarded in the destruction of many of their bitter foes the Tontc Apaches. They have witnessed the partial extermination Of the TontCes without even a tinge of compassion. When thrown into their company at the San Carlcs reservation Scout Axe never developed any liking for them, and it is probable he never will.
 MT. Axe, the Tcntcs have nearly all of them been killed eff, haven t they?"
 ''No,' was the answer, and his ex- pression was more significant than his words when he concluded that three hundred Tcntos are left
 The immediate desire Of Scout Axe was to learn the location of the h. dian school A reporter accompanied him a few squares on his way and told him 1t was nearly four miles to the school. This didn't annoy indian Axe, nor even his venerable associate. The scout said he enjoyed walking. He has frequently walked fifty miles in a day, and in urgent cases has made twice the distance. He had just rid den 120 miles by rail and was pleased with an opportunity of walking four miles by way of stretching his legs.
 When I see superintendent" asked Warrior Axe, ''I must say, 'Hallo, Me COwan, is this you?'"
 Well you need net say that" re- piled the reporter. Simply say, good evening Mir McCowan' ''
 The Indian started off with his com panion repeating over and ever again the phrase he intended to use in his with the superintendent.
 Good bye" he said. ''I'll see you then when the sun comes again.

St. Louis, Mo-.

Mayor Ziegenhein and Postmaster Baumhoff delivered addresses of wei come after an invocation by Rev: J. w. McKintrick. President J. w.

CHANGE IN HORSESHOE FALL.
Fall of Rock Has Restored the Horse
 shoe Shape It Had Years Ago.

Niagara Falls, N. Y, Sept. 26.-By a fall of rock which occurred recently, just when nobody seems to knew, the Horseshoe Fall has been restored to d mere symmetrical shape and to the fTcn which it derived it's name. This condition was discovered by an cid man of the name Of Pitts, who called the attention Of others to it, and all agreed that the change had oc- cured in the contour of the waterfall. Of late years the fall has b5en nearly V shaped, destroying much of the net ural beauty by forcing a large amount of water to flow over the center, in stead Of being evenly distributed, and thus contributing to the symmetry of the falls. Howeve-, this latest fall ot rock has had the effect of restoring greatly increasing the beauty of it's lines.
 The fall Of rock will interest scien- tiffc men and others who have made a study of the falls. In paper on the duration of the falls Pref. Spencer has said that from 1S42 to 1890, 275.- 900, 900 cubic feet fell away. In 1919 the crest Of the Horseshoe Fall was very acute. It has become quite ob- tuse in 1S42, acute in 1890, and in 1890 it started to brc3del, out again.

LATE PHASES OF CHILD STUDY.
By Cclin A. Scott Ph. D., of the Chi
 cago Normal School.

The care and the culture of children is the greatest work of progress Re- forms pertaining to the present gener- aitiOn only, are necessarily short-lived Those affecting children determine the direction of the race. This follows from the fact that it is selection among individuals and na-icls that produces permanent notifications
 Child study stands for the doctrine that children are to be trained not merely for the purpose of the present generation. We are not the perma- rent repositories, we are but the torch bearers of life. and child study thus bases itself upon heredity and regards the period of childhood both physically and psychically from the standpoint of embryology. To establish this view the analysis of the adult idea Of the child is Inadequate. Such second hand
