going out of fashion altogether He ceased
to draw street cars, and. for time,

now The Spanish war revived the inter

again. and now they have their reward
in furnishing all the live stock they can
ind to supply the wants of the British
Army in South Africa.
one Of the results of this excited con-
dition in our equine industry is that the
persistent British demand has depleted
ranches and stables. and there is a serious
horse famine out West. The Government
has not been able to find mounts for the
Fourteenth Cavalry-one of the new regi-
1nents-now being organized at Fort I.eav-
enworth- The least price at which con-
tractors would undertake to furnish
horses was fixed at one hundred and for
ty-three dollars head whereas it is
not so long ago that the War Depart
ment could get all it wanted at forty or
fifty dollars This condition OF things is
likely to last while the war in South
Africa shall last: because the United
States is the only country producing AMI
mails Of the kind needed by Great Britain.

climate With the best care possible in
the circumstances, the exigencies OF the
situation are such that the British au-
thorities at the Cape are unable TO give
horses arriving after a long and democrat
izing voyage the rest and exercise they
require to fit them for the field. The con-
sequence is that there IS an excessively
heavy mortality among the cattle Of the
British army. the average life Of a horse
