culiar knack for handling young peo-
pie to their advantage. AS for my own
opinion of the matter, l will simply
say that all know about it is covered
by the phrase. u am very fond OF chill
dren.'
But let me get on with my story.
Arthur Leslie, as | have said, was a
bright boy, and be was as brave and
manly as the son of soldier and an
officer should be. His courage-and |
have seen it tried scores of times was
strong and deepseated. ever.ready and
unhinchiug. He was an enthusiastic
horseman, and month or two before
my arrival his father had bought him u
mustang pony from an Indian trader
that had come to the Fort. | never saw
ha.dsomer animal than Spot for
that is the short namd Arthur had Civ.
en- to the pony. Some Indian tribes are
notably successful in breeding circus
horses as I used to call them when
WAS a boy-that is to say, horses whose
coats are spotted all over, chiefly in
what is known as bay color and white,
and Spot was a remarkably pretty
specimen of this kind.
But this great beauty was not in his
coat; it was in his graceful form. his
broad breast, his nervous tapering legs,
his sbapely head, his flowing white
name and tail, and his bright intell-
eyes. l fell in love with the little
beast at first sight OF him. have had
a good deal to do with horses in my
day, and frequent visits to the school
of famous trainer have made me ia
miliar with the best methods Of teach
ing the animal to do what you COM
mand. When told Arthur this, he
was delighted; but when l added that
Spot was the kind of pony to take
the training we'll, he was all enthusiasm
and could hardly wait till the next day,
when it would be more convenient for
the first lesson.
At the time agreed upon, soon after
breakfast, Arthur appeared upon the
parade ground leading Spot They
were already good friends, but there
was no better understanding between
them than that common between master
and horse. AS for me, Spot had seen
me several times, but l cannot say that
we were really acquainted with each
other. Never mind that I said, when
Arthur suggested that it would inter-
fere with my success at first; u want to
show you that your pony and l shall
be boon companions within 20 minutes
Indeed, think you will find him, be-
fore half that time has passed, follow
ing me all oyer the parade ground at q
word of command-perhaps even with
out command
While saying this / had walked ur
TO Spot where he stood in his graceful
way, with arched neck and inquirina
eye, and began caressing him with lit
tie friendly pats of the hand. Istroked
his fore head gently three or four times
and then moved my hand softly over
his ose until it rested under his lips
