TRAINING OF ANIMALS.
Only Accomplished 1t Is Said. by tn,
Use of the Whip

Only accomplished. 1T Is Said, by the
Use of the Whip.
The popular theory that animals can
be taught tricks by tirmness and kind
ness is grim error, according to vet
eran circus man who has sent forth
the dictum that no animal was ever
trained to do anything unnatural ex-
cept by punishment. If it knows hun
ger or pain will follow disobedience, it
will obey.
1t takes the whip to break the colt to
harness or saddle, but the end justities
the means, and the animals intelli-
gence when once it has learned it's les
son does away with further use Of the
whip But if horse is taught tricks,
such as one sees in 4 circus, the con-
slant use of the whip is necessary,
and the little pat on the neck the train
er gives the animal in public is not be-
slowed in private There is never any
let up in their training
Trained dogs always appeal to wom-
en- and children, for the little animals
appear to thoroughly enjoy their work.
But the barking and frisking are only
the natural joy of the poor beasts at
being let out of the cramped quarters
where they stay when they are not in
the ring. Moreover they know the
trainer does not whip them in public
There is scarcely a trick trained dog
does that he likes or that he will do at
order unless punished. Willis Cobb
was the first dog trainer to make
reputation, and when he was middle
aged he abandoned his profession be-
cause he said, he had not the heart to
go on making living by whipping

NEGRO SLABS WHITE MAN.
Row at Artesian Well Came Near

cutting affray Sunday morning at about
eleven O'Clock, in which Christopher
MCGEE was gashed upon the face by
Van Hyleck, negro. Sheriff Chris

and Immediately arrested both parties.
uIt seems that a dispute arose be-
tween MCGEE and Hyleck as to who
should drink first, and MCGEE snatched
the dipper from the negro's hands and
cursed him, whereupon the negro drew
his knife and stabbed him. The cash
which MCGEE received was deep one,
and doubtless would have proven fatal
had it been an inch lower.

In appearance he is a typical Qua
ker. Clad in the garb Of that sect he
presents handsome picture, as before
the immense audiences he stan is for a
few brief moments and explains to his
eager listeners the object of his visit
here.
Every word is listened to intently,
and in the days to come, when the mar
velOus cures he tells them of are made,
they will remember bis words of proph-
ecy, and say that his modesty made him
tell them less than he really will do,
for it is characteristic OF this great
healer that half of his wonderful cures
have not been written of but will go
down in history to be revived by wri-
tiers of future ages to illustrate that
this, the original Quaker Doctor, lived
ahead of his time and worked wonders
beyond the ken of man.
The Quaker Doctor is liberal with
his audiences, and instead of following
the usual custom adopted by men on
the platform of taxing the crowds pa
thence with long lectures he gives to
all free entertainments of the highest
class.
There is music and vaudeville,
sleight of hand and Punch and Judy,
and everything to make you laugh and
grow happy.
In fact, the Quaker and his company
are worth going miles to see, and the
world-famous Polychrone is the most
novel and entertaining instrument on
the universe. 1t plays, and makes the
blood Jingle with new life at its insplr-
ing music.
You must see and hear it to appreci-
ate it, so do not forget that every night
now the place to assemble is at the
Quaker Doctors stand, for there you
will find mirth and music. health and
good cheer, and the entire perform
ance costs you nothing.
There is nothing to sell-everythlng
is free. The Quaker is here to do good
for suffering humanity, and this after
all is mans best mission in life.
