OUR FRIEND THE HORSE.

The Road Drivers association of New
York gave an exhibition in that city last
Saturday which tends to dispel the Idea
that the horse is doomed TO extinction or
the sausage mill by the advent Of the
bicycle and the automobile.
Two million dollars worth of roadsters
were represented in this display, the
greatest perhaps in the history OF the as
ISOLATION.
1t is true that the bicycle craze has per-
ceptibly diminished the employment OF tho
livery horse in the cities and villages, and
that the automobile has emancipated him
in large numbers in towns where paved
streets are the rule and not the excep-
ton.
But the horse is by no means doomed
to extinction or to retirement to the cata-
logue OF food products. Next to the dog,
he is mans best friend and companion
among dumb animals. He can not be dis
placed by bike which converts the riders
legs into piston rods and gives him the
spinal conformation OF an Australian kan
CARGO; nor by a stupid piece OF mere ma
chinery, such as is the automobile, that
can not take ditch or fence or a bit
Of marsh without wreck TO itself and dis
aster TO its Occupant.
These things Of steel and rubber and
naphtha and electricity can never sup
plant the noble horse in the affections Of
men and women who love the thrill, the
exuberance, the wholesomeness of a gallop
along country lane, across fragrant
stretch of meadow. through strip of
umbraEeous forest or silent ride in
mountain gorge where sleeps the everlast-
Ing shadow OF overhanging cliffs. Nor
will the automobile, picking its mechani-
cal way over paved thoroughfares, meet
the demand Of the man OF spirit for rub
Der tired vehicle drawn by a pair of high
steppers that bounding off to the touch
OF frightened line. filings the dust and
gravel Of the road into the face of the
"spurter' who RACES because his team is
not fast enough TO enable him to return
the delightful mischievous compliment.
But 1t is not merely on sentiment that
the horse rests his plea for survival. It
is doubtful II his utility is not as great
now as ever, Even the despised broncho
is being sent to South Africa as the best
mount possible. There is one thing sure
about the Texas broncho. He will give
the british cayalrymaR degree of mo-
bility that will turn the best horseman or
the Boer yeldt green with consuming
envy This wiry Texas broncho is as
quick on the go as an electric fash as
hardy as a thing OF steel. and as eccentric
as Kansas cyclone in his bucking per-
tormances He may be hard to train to
exact cavalry alignment, but he will give
the individual rider mobility that will
MAKE hero out of him II 1t does not

Judgment rendered in the United States

a contract with the city OF houston for
constructing street Improvements, such az
grading. paving, ETC., and sewerage on
certain streets. the price being fixed and
stipulated and designated in the contract;
ana, further. II was agreed mat at the
completion of all improvements except at
street intersections the defendant would
deliver TO the contractor certificates
against the owners OF abutting property
as lien on said property. The plaintiff
claims that when he completed the work
he was given certificates based upon in
valid assessments and utterly worthless
and valueless. which the owners OF prop
erty refused to pay.
The Houston Land company comes in
asking an equitable lien upon such sums
this suit because Storrle borrowed large
sums on the certificates which he depos-
tied with the land company.
The city 81 Houston iled answer alleg-
ing that the court has no jurisdiction be-
cause the Houston Land company and not
the plaintiff Is the owner of the certifi-
cafes; that plaintiff Is not an alien. "A cit
