FINE STABLES OF THE WEALTHY
Every Convenience and Comfort Pro-
vided for the Horses of New
YOrk's AristOcracy.

A glimpse into the interior OF one Of
the many handsome buildings In New York
set apart for lodging and feeding horses
would delight all lovers of the intelligent
equine. The total cost Of stables which
embody up-to-date scientific fittings, sani-
tsry flooring, perfect ventilation. and cor
rect style, varies from $4,000 to $3.50 900.
Instead of wooden flooring or earth, which
is very Injurious TO the animals feet, small
bricks are now used, making a standing
place that is easily cleaned, and insures
perfect sanitation. The stalls are massive
and handsome. the sides being Of teakwood
with a two-inch dado; the wood extends
upward about four feet, or as high as a
horse might be expected to kick under
ordinary circumstance. The oat and water
hangers are on opposite sides which is an
advantage, as the animal does NOT slop his
dry food; the hay is put in a division of the
manger with a wire screen over IL, so that
It can be got at easily, while undue waste
does not result, as in the days when 1t was
placed In a rack over the horses head,
where II could be pulled down and trodden
under foot.

HARTMAN AND KEENE ROW
Why the RumPus in the Southern Pa
ciac Camp is Carried on I'm
Kentucky.

The contest between the Keene and the
Hartman interests over the control OF the
Southern Pacific railroad and the filing By
the former on March IL, at Louisville, KY,
Of the bill Of complaint and application for
an injunction, brings into prominence the
fact that though not owning a foot Of prop
erty in Kentucky, the Southern Pacific
company still has its legal home in the
state which gave 1t corporate existence.
Out to the south Of Louisville near Jacob
park lies the little suburb of Beechmont,
q place Of some 200 inhabitants, and there,
in the residence Of ]. B. Weaver, assistant
secretary Of the Southern Pacific COM
pany. is the headquarters Of one Of the
greatest railroad corporations In the coun-
try.
Mr.. Viewers house is a pleasant and
substantial frame structure, surrounded
with trees, and located near the line OF
the Louisville Railway company, which
runs a car every half hour TO Beechmont.
One would hardly think to see the place
that behind 1t was a background OF
finance and business which means $780,
900, 900 OF capital, steamship lines on both
oceans, 9,01e miles Of track with 1900 loco
motives, 1900 passenger cars n $4,000
freight cars.
Yet the pleasant, quiet Weaver home
In Beechmont is the head and front OF
every legal transaction or fight In which
the great corporation engages and stands
for more money, in law, than any other
building In the state Of Kentucky.
When the Southern Pacific railroad OBJ
tanned its charter in Kentucky It estab-
lished nominal Offices in Louisville.
The assistant secretary Of those days
was Mr.. d. g.. Krebs, at that time auditor
Of the Chesapeake, Ohio & Southwestern
His ofices were at Seventh street and the
river, and there hung an ostentatious
Southern Pacific sign. After the Illinois
Central road purchased the Chesapeake,
Ohio & Southwestern road, about five years
ago, ]. B. Weaver, treasurer OF the latter
road, became the assistant secretary Of the
Southern Pacific and at once transferred
the headquarters to Beechmont, his place
Of residence. Mr.. Weaver is an attorney
of Louisville, but keeps the business Of th'
Southern Pacific entirely separated in loca.
tion from his practice Of law. Whether Oh
no his railroad business at times Scent
to his neighbors to be OF a nominal type
he is a necessity, and no better demon
stration of this fact can be had than tn
events Of the past month. when the grea
railroad anne home to have its wrong
righted.
Kentucky became the headquarters Of tn
Southern Pacific railroad in 1884. The leg
~islature granted a charter on March IA 0
that year. The late G.. p. Huntington wa
the practical owner OF all the roads, which
combined. formed the Southern Pacific sys
tenn.
Al that time, says the Courler-Journa
great corporations OF all kinds came I
Kentucky for their charters. just as the

tation Of giving the corporations everS

The New York millionaire takes as much
pride in his stable as In any OF the prin-
cipal rooms in his own dwelling house.
When any new speciality is put on the mar
ket whereby the stable can be improved or
made more ornate he hastens to test its
adequacy. He is as particular about hir-
ing a stable groom as he would be in en-
, gaging a secretary. and the men he picks
out to care for his animals must be dill
gent, untiring, progressive, and intelligent.
There are at least fifty stables between
West Fifty-eigth and One Hundred and
Twenty-hfth Street which are marvels Of
comfort and convenience. On entering any
Of these the visitor is struck by the neat
ness, order and even elegance which per-
wade the place. Plenty of light. fresh air
with no trace of the fumes usually asso-
ciated with stables, lofty ceilings, and ami
mails whose coats shine with satiny lustre
are found in profusion.
In a magnificent stable on West Fifty
eight street the equipment and modern
accessories are almost bewildering in their
variety, The brick floor is as clean and
sweet as water and brush could make It.

who says he could eat his breakfast on It

all those that are recommended by re-
liable publications The kind of food

it should be governed entirely by cir
cumstances. What will cure horse
will kill d man, and, for that matter,
what will kill one man will not mate

ponds upon the strength Of the man
and sometimes on the strength Of what
he imbibes. And so it is with fowls.

Yukon River Traffic.

J Two million dollars worth of rive,
! steamers and cargoes lost on the
Yukon is suggestive of the volume of
traffic on that great river. The Yukon
has been low this year and navigation
has been ATTENDED with a great deal
OF difficulty, : particularly from the
mouth near st. Michael to Dawson.
Ma vigation on the upper river in + he
earlier part Of the season was not att
tended with any serious lack of wa
ter, but" dispatches from Washington
are stuck on bars between Dawson
and White Horse, steamers that be-
long to the White Pass railroad line
doing business between Skagway and
Dawson, and that two others are
aground below Dawson. The ice is al;
ready forming in the Yukon and it
seems impossible to release these
before the river closes. In that event
they will undoubtedly be crushed to
pieces when the ice goes out next May
or June. This $2,OOO,0OO worth Of
steamers and cargoes is, Of course,
only small part of the equipment
and freight carried on the river dur
ing the past summer. There were
nine boats running between st.
Michael and Dawson this year, and
probably more on the shorter stretch
between White Horse and Dawson, to-
ge:her with some local boats on diff
ferent stretches of the river.
