James H. Wallick of Bandit" and Cat
tie King fame says: Il pick an intelligent
horse. Every horse has a character and
you can size him up as easily as you can
determine the character of a person.
When the horses disposition is known
the question of how to dead with him
Is simple. The horse has bue one idea
at time in his head and should be treated
accordingly. He should never be whipped
for fright. but a new idea should DE given
him to attract his attention. Talking to
him will often do that. Be gentle with
horse, but let him know that you are the
master. This rule is universal one The
successful business man controls his en-
ployes by that method. If the horse has
confidence in his master he will obey his
command, but he must know what his mas
ter wishes him to do That is the great
secret of success with horses Few are
able to communicate to the dumb br;tes,
but only such can be trainers. The thor
oughbreds are usually the most intelligent
and consequently the most proud-spirited,
but the results from them are correspond
ingly greater. No horse is Dy nature bad
or vicious, but is made so by cruel or i'm
patient men. But vicious horses can be re-
formed just as can evil persons. and. do you
know, l think that persons, like other ami
mails, are made and not born vicious? Some
horses are lunatics, and are no more ac-
countable for their acts than insane human
beings.
"a man who can deal with men can deal
with the brute creation, for the natures OF
all are the same in quality. but in lower
animals the quantity of intelligence varies.
No wonder a horse acts badly when 81 fool
of a man Is trying to manage him.
Mr.. Wallick cited number of incidents
of horses which he had reformed, trained
or taught, but he refused to use the term
broke" in that connection, and as a spe-
cial illustration concluded: Il once attended
a circus and Il trained horse perform.
Show how you do when you are sleepy
said the trainer, and the horse opened his
mouth and gaped. The man accompanied
this by sticking the whip into the horses
mouth, which would make any one pretend
to cape. l taught a horse the same trick
by simply showing what 1 wanted. 1t took
me fifteen minutes. l got his attention,
opened my mouth and then ted the horse
sugar, when he followed my example,

The proneness Of people to jump at con-
illusions is the text of a story related by
James F. Dolan, the comedian in the Chase
bill next week. Mr.. Dolan vouches for the
facts as follows:
Not long ago I was in Detroit playing at
the Temple Theater. l was then appearing
in my farce, The Heightened Burglar On
the morning Of the day in question, I was
walking along Monroe avenue. Near the
ST. Clair Hotel 1 met a lady with a gen.
tleman, and as. she passed me l overheard
her remark to her companion, There goes
that burglar" In a moment I felt myself
seized from behind by pair of strong arms
and instinctvely / began to wrestle with
my unknown assailant. When L was able
to twist myself face to face with him 1
found that he was the man who had ac-
companied the lady. He was energeticaly
striving to drag me to the nearest police
man, so l gathered from his incoherent re-
marks as we tussled together. The lady
was making frantic efforts to separate us
and apparently was trying to convince my
assailant that something was wrong
crowd gathered and finally a policeman
came and we were separated. He was called
upon to arrest me as burglar and when
the policeman seized me and asked me for
my name said that | was James F. Dolan
and that l was burglar, but only a stage
burglar, playing in piece of NY own called
The Heightened Burglar At this point
the lady recovered sufficiently from her
alarm and confusion to take hand and set
things straight. She told the officer to let
me go and announced to her husband that
he was fool and that l was the actor who
was playing In piece she had seen the
night before, In which / enacted the title
role. written by myself Then it transpired
that the lady had been victimized by
sneak thief the day before and that her hus-
band upon being acquainted with the facts
udu toiu Her " Keep sharp LOOKOUT on the
street and that perhaps they might encoun-
ter the fellow in which case he would hand
him over to the police. When they met me
and she made that unfortunate remark of
course, the husband acted on the spur of the
and she, poor thing, was so dazed
and startled by what he had done, thinking
possibly that he had been seized with some
insane impulse, that she could not collect
her wits at the start off, and left us to
tussle it out for five or ten minutes So
you see that 1t Is easy to jump at conclu-
sions, but the consequences are not always
safe"
Messrs. Liebler & Company, the mana
gers Of Viola Allen, received a cable on
Wednesday from Signor Pietro Mascagni
stating that he would attend the opening
performance Of 1.-THE Eternal City, at the
National Theater on Monday evening, Oc-
tober 6. 1t is probable that he will con-
duct the orchestra which will play the
score he wrote for this drama.
