Whitman as an Editor.

From the Atlantic.
Whitman wrote on anything and every
thing. after the fashion of editors, some
times with earnestness, sometimes with
undisguised indifference. Here is a sam
pie of an occasional sort: ITO cure the
toothache, plunge your feet in cold water.
Strange. but true" For but" most peo-
ple would read III The man who must
supply a column at a given hour every
day cannot make the quality uniform.
Whitman discusses public and personal
questions; asks if it is right to dance. and
answers himself that it is. If one goes to
he'd in decent season; rates the ferry COM
many for allowing men to smoke and spit
on the decks; and while the United States
army is hghting in Mexico, he turns out
a restful screed entitled Some Afternoon
Gossip" devoted to a rainfall and the lam
entations of ice cream makers on account
of the cool weather. Some happenings all
wavs drew a lecture from him. He could
not abide harshness, unfairness. tyranny

SWIMMING SCHOOL FOR HORSES
Equines Go Through Course of Instruc-
ton in British Army.
From the Royal Magazine

FROM the Royal Magazine.
Horses are enlisted in British cavalry
regiments on reaching their third year. but
it is generally two years more before they
are taken for their first swimming lesson.
This branch of their education receives a
good deal of attention at the Aldershot
training camp. The veterinary officer and
riding master Of. the regiment supervise
the work. and only experienced men are
allowed to assist.
The great thing is not to force or alarm
the horse during his training, but rather to
lead him by easy stages to enter the water
quickly, fearlessly and as noiselessly as
possible. If terrified at the start, the
horse would be likely to fight shy of deep
water ever after. So on the first day the
man who has charge of the horse walks his
pupil about on the edge of the water, just
permitting him to wet his hoofs and fet-
locks. The next day the horse is intro
duced a little farther into the water per-
haps up to his body. and allowed to splash
round as he pleases. In this way the horse
is gradually taken farther and farther In
until at length he loses his footing and
starts swimming quite naturally, the man
in charge swimming by his side to give
him greater confidence.
Then the horse is taught to swim in COM
pany with others, beside a boat, by way of
training him to cross rivers with his regi-
ment en- masse. The horses are Invested of
all saddlery but head collars and head
ropes. The men of each troop get into a
boat and by means of the head ropes
bring their horses into the water alongside.
Then the boat is hauled across the river
by a rope manned from the opposite side.
and the horses necessarily follow.
At times the horses are exercised in bear
ing their riders across on their backs. The
horse wears only the head collar and bri-
doom, and the rider strips himself and
throws his legs up along the horses TANKS
SO as not to impede the animals move
ments AS the horse naturally swims very
low in the water, the riders weight pushes
him down until only his head is above the
surface. But the animal soon gets over
the uneasiness this causes him at first
Then the horses tuition is complete, and
he is classed in his regiment as proficient -
He has, in fact passed his EXAM" as
much as any cadet at Sandhurst.

EXOTIC MURDER CoNsPIRAc1Es
Better to Keep the Members of the
Various Societies Out.

From the New York Mail and Express
What with Chinese highblnders. Italian
mafias and Cameras, and now the warning
revolutionary feuds of the Armenians. we
certainly are afflicted with enough foreign
murder gangs to replace ably defunct Fe-
MAN conspiracies of years ago. It was not.
indeed, SO many years ago that DR.. Cronin
was murdered in Chicago for betraying
Clan-na-Gael secrets; but there is reason
to believe that his assassination was the
expiring gasp of that form of murder
conspiracy.
The Chinese highbinders are still in their
murderous heyday, as the assassination
of Sam Jim only last week proved. The
malta we have always with us. From
time to time man known to be "out''
with that influential Italian organization
is found in some nice lonesome place with
a wound leading straight and clean to a
heart which no longer beats.
The Armenian Hentchagists Alfarfsts
and Passiv1ts have as yet scarcely swum
into the ken of the American public. Their
feuds recently resulted, however, in a MUIR
derous attack on an Armenian editor in
Boston, and then in a similar assault on
an Armenian leader at Lausanne, Switz-
erland; and now an Armenian from
chagist revolutionary leader. Sagouni, in
London. Many other mysterious crimes
among the Armenians in this country have
escaped general attention. Doubtless they
have sprung from these feuds.
When assasinations of this sort take
place, we might be inclined to say of the
contestants, as Iago said of Cassie and
Roderigo, that whether Hentchagist kill
Alfarist or highlander kill anti-highbinder,
or the other way around, either way makes
our gain. We are not interested in keep
ing the ranks Of these various murder So
cieties full Yet unpublished crimes of any
sort are a detriment.
It would be much better to keep these
emissaries of murder out of the country
altogether. by additional and wholesome
restrictions placed on Immigration, than to
let them come in and kill one another here.
