OF his British Mnjesty's One Hundr red and
'Steenth Foot and now OF Suburbanv!llc
by night and Wall Street by day, says that
n there are any dishonest men in the horse
business he must have met them In the
last four months
He doesn't want TO make any general
charges against horse dealers as a class,
but In view OF HE own experiences he II
inclined 10 think that such Of them az ne
has met arc not 80 g~uileless as they mp
pear. He has reached this conclusion
by wav OF personal experiences which
he thinks are unique.
Az an ey-offcer In q foot regiment Capt.
Blng may not ave known a quarter-crack
from a SPAWN. but he could tell a bay
horse from a black az a glance and he knew
the difference between a trot and a can'er
When he let it be known four months ago
that he proposed to set W n horse and
cart 10 carry him from the manor house
TO the station and bet ween times TO serve
Mrs. Bing a. abe might direct he had no
doubt that the selection o! a horse was a
simple matter compared with h1ring u
cook to the solitude OF Suburbanyille.
II was Blng's Idea to begin With a email
horse and work up 70 a full-sized one later
Some one advised him to buy a polo pony
and n dealer vas found who was willing
TO D6T WIN ono TOT u HlOue>' rum.
Dewey. for thai happened TO be his name.

land dog and q good deal smaller than

When Dewey made his first public ap-
pearance BET ween the shafts Of the Bing
pony chaise with the captain holding tho
reins very tightly. a judge o.. horses might
have suspected possibilities from Dcwel's
eyes. They had an unframed look, but then
he was 80 small and the chaise SO heavy
tina, even " he had the will he would proha-
bly, lack the 81 rength to do any damage.
Whoa up called the captain loudly as
he drew up before the railroad station.
One of his friends who looked out OF the
window at him said: Well, old Bing has at
Nonsense said another. that ia not an
automobile; its q pony ohaise with a horse.
The first man arose so that his angle OF
view took In the horse, and az he saw Dewey
he exclaimed

cubator he robbed for that little beastF..
Capt. Bing looked his outfit over critically
