to give Ii a trial first, and SO used 1t

HORSE JUMPED OVER GAR,
Unusual Feat Performed by Frightened
Mare of Scrub stock


Riders in the Meadowbrook, Lake
wood and other hunt clubs straddle
some fine horses at the meets. but it is
doubtful if any one of the animals
could duplicate the feat of a western
mare of scrub stock that recently
cleared fat freight car at Jump and
landed without stumbling Charles
Anderson, who has just returned to
Denver after being out with an extra
gang on the Union Pacific for the past
three months, tells of this extraordi-
nary jump. The gang with which An
derson was working was engaged in
filing and repair work on bridges and
travelled in train of work cars which
usually were set on siding or spur
while work was going on at nearby
points. While working near Green
River, Wyo., they had the cars set on
spur, and all around the spot on both
sides of the track was fine pasturage
for the horses. One morning while
the men were rounding up the horses
the bunch took fright at something
just as they were started toward the
camp. In a wild rush they swooped
down on the corral, and one which
seemed to have been thoroughly fren-
zied dashed directly toward the train.
Some of the men, seeing the fright of
the animal, tried to turn her. but she
went on needless of the obstruction.
81 was standing in front of the board
| ing car" said Anderson, land felt sure
she would butt out her brains against
the car. Just as she reached the edge
| of the shallow cut at which the cars
stood she stopped an instant, firmly
planted her feet in the ground and
gave one mighty leap. The car was
cleared as clearly and perfectly as
though the animal had been trained
English hurdle horse instead of COM
mon hobo on a grade team The car
she leaped over was a standard gauge
| fat, loaded with steel rails. The bank
| from which she started was not more
| than six inches above the ties and
the other side was lower. Apparently
the animal was not injured by her wild
| leap. The foreman of the gang saw
her make the leap and bought her
from the man who owned her, and
says he proposes to keep her for a
family pet because of her feat. She
is apparently of Canadian eopper-bot-
tom stock and weighs about 1850
pounds. New York Press.

AS a hostess Mrs Mccormick was a
success.
Ever since old Jake Mccormick had
passed into the great unknown, nearly
eight years before my story COM
mences, leaving behind him the only
two things that ever crept into MS
heart-his young wife and his MIL
lions-Mrs. Mccormick had, socially
reigned in l. supreme.
l. was college town-old, Sc
date, select. To have belonged there
for generations was a guarantee OF re-
spectability; to be new was damna-
ton. Society was as its forbears had
made it-then came Mrs. Mccormick.
Old Jake had started life as black
smith; later he made millions in oil.
Mrs. Mccormick never told her family
history. She was young, pretty, rich
and a widow; who could ask more?
The patriarchs of l. looked on her
coming with indifference; one day
they awoke to find her their bright
particular star. Her dinners were tri-
umphs in the culinary art, her decora-
tons We're perfection, wall-flcwers
were unknown at her dances, and
happy the fraternity tea or college ball
that secured her as patroness.
Today was one of her Saturday
functions to which the elite of L.
was hidden and gladly came, and, de-
spite pouring rain, the rooms were
filled. Mrs Mccormick, fair, gracious

Uncoutbness IN the Army.

General Miles has acted wisely in
issuing general order intended to
promote a more trim and soldierly ap-
pearance on the part of the men in
the United States army. All the Amer
lean as well as all the foreign critics
of our regiments in the Chinese expe-
dition agreed that the American sol
diers, while second to none in courage
and efficiency, were deficient in drill
and slouchy in appearance. General
Chaffee recently has found it neces-
sary to issue an order on this subject
to his men in the Philippines. Now
General Miles calls the attention of the
whole army to "a certain uncouthness
of exterior and laxity of manners"
which seem to be affected Intentionally
by some of the troops under the mis-
taken idea that these are soldierly
characteristics. The commanding gen.
eral says offenses of this kind must
stop.
This carelessness in dress and disci-
pline appears to have crept into the
army at the time of the civil war. Up
to that time the regulars were models
of punctilious propriety. No European
officers were more insistent in matters
of discipline and pipeclay than those
of our army before the SOS. The civil
war called into the field vast bodies OF
unframed volunteers, who in time be-
came as efficient fighters as the regu-
lars, but who never acquired the per-
lection of drill or the rigid habit of
keeping their uniforms in spotless
condition. These volunteer regiments,
with their splendid fighting and their
careless dressing, set an example whose
effect upon the regulars remains no.
ticeable to the present day.-Ex.
