HORSE WHISPERERS
Secret Methods is I'd by Irish
Animal Trainers

Ireland, as well as TIE Iar north OF
Scotland. had-possIbly still has-its
morse whisperers," though the broth
erings" which give such permanence
and Scniatty to the Scottish ''piow
mans whisper never seem to have eX-
listed in the sister island. Irish 'whis
perers" have been lonely men, whose
secret has generally died with them,
says the Golden Penny.
The most famous "whisperer" of
modern times was James Sullivan of
Dunhallow. No horse was ever
brought to Sullivan which he did not
permanently tame. Ordinarily restive
animals he would master in few min
utes. For exceptionally vicious horses
he took about half an hour, during
which time he shut the stable door and
forbade any one to open it till he gave
the signal. When the door was opened
the horse was still lying down and
Sullivan by his side, playing with him
as a child does with puppy. There
was no tying up of the foreleg or any
other visible means of coercion. How
his ascendency was obtained no one
could tell.
A successor of Sullivan named
O'Hara became almost equally famous.
and was often urged to explain what
was the secret of his influence. But
O'Hara treated his questioners as Sam
son did the Philistines, deluding them
with various and unsatisfactory an
swers. At one time, for instance. he
said the secret lay in rocking" the
horse-putting one hand firmly on his
crupper. and with the other grasping
his shoulder and then swaying him to
and fro, gently at first and gradually
increasing the motion till you throw
him. At another time he protested that
his plan was to bite the animals ear
Both these are well known jockey
tricks. The most stubborn horse, they
say will be wholly subdued by being
thrown twice or thrice, and il you can
get vicious horses ear between your
teeth and bite hard you are his master
and he your submissive slave from that
time forward AS to the idea that the
''whisperern works by kindness. it
stands to reason that that method sup
poses the entire education of the ami
NAL TO be in your hands. If you have
only half an hour to do your work in,
you must show overmastering power
as well as kindly feelings. horse
whose temper has been spoiled by
chronic bad treatment looks on all men
alike as tyrants and bullies.

EFFICACY OF ONIONS
Cure a Cold by Outward and
Inward Use

The idea of an onion cure may not
strike the fancy of the aesthetic. How
ever, the experience of those who have
tried ii is that it works wonders in re
storing a racked system TO its normal
state again. There are three kinds of
doses in the onion cure, or three onion
cures, as you choose TO put it. One is a
diet of onions, the other is onion plas-
ters and the third is onion sirup.
1t is claimed by those who believe in
the onion cure that bad cold can be
broken up if the patient will stay in
doors and feed on a liberal diet of
onions. 1t need not be an exclusive
diet, but liberal one. For instance
an onion cure breakfast includes a
poached egg on toast three tablespoon
fuls of fried onions and cup of coffee.
Luncheon of sandwiches. made of Bos-
ton brown bread. buttered and filed
with finely chopped raw onions, sea-
soned with salt and pepper. makes the
second meal on the schedule. For sup
per the onions may be fried as for
breakfast and eaten with chop and
baked potato.
The strange efficacy of onions is well
known to the singers of Italy and
Spain, who eat them every day to inn
prove the quality of their voices and
keep them smooth. Onion plasters are
prescribed to break up hard coughs.
They are made of fried onions placed
between two pieces of old muslin. The
plaster is kept quite hot until the pa
tient is snugly in bed, when it is placed
on the chest to stay overnight Onion
sirup is a dose that can be bought of
any druggist and is claimed by some TO
be unequaled as a cure for cold in the
chest.
All this is probably quite true. For
TO be done up with onions. both inside
and out, would be enough certainly TO
chase out any self respecting cold

PRODUCTOF
PRECIOUS
MINERALS
figures Obtained by Director
of Mint for Last Calen-
dar Year
NEVADA COMING TO FRONT
This State 10 Now Seventh in
Rank snd Product 10 In
ereasins Rapidly

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. l. Di-
rector of the mint Roberts favored the
Tribune correspondent today with a
look at the figures obtained by him
regarding the production of precious
metals in the United States during
the last calendar year. They have not
been given out for publication as yet,
some of the figures being subject to
minor correction, but those shown in
the following table are approximately
correct.
INCREASE IN GOLD PRODUCT
The totals chow slight increase in
the production Of gold and very
slight decrease In the production of
silver as compared with 1901. The
production of gold in Alaska was two
million better than in 1901, but is no
larger than was produced there in
1900.
UTAH HOLDS HER OWN
Utah holds her own as fourth In
rank of the precious metal producing
states-a proud position. Montana is
just ahead of her. With the produc-
tion of some two millions more of
metal Utah state can displace Mon
tana from the third place rank. Di-
rector Roberts thinks this may be
done in a year or 80. He stated that
there were undoubtedly vast stores
OF wealth In the Mountains of Utah
which have not even been touched.
NEVADA PULLING TO FRONT
Nevada comes seventh and Idaho
efgth in rank, their combined output
being about equal to Utah's. But Ne
vada is on the high road to success.
Nevada has more than doubled her
output of silver. Take 1t by ounces:
In 1900 she produced 1,25s, 200, and in
1901 her mines yielded 1915. 500 ounces
Last year the production was S,746,2O0
ounces, thus making an enviable rec
ord. 1t is safe to say that Nevada will
not long remain seventh in rank.
AS TO IDAHO
And there is room for Improvement
in Idaho. History tells how millions
in gold was washed from the surface
OF that state in the esarly COS. IL
there was that much on the surface
there should be many times that much
still hidden in the mountains.

Powerful Auto Engine and Cars BelnI Made-Msy Revoiutienlxe Bersx
 Business, Open Gold Mlnes.

A New York dispatch in an eastern paper says: "A Harlem firm is en- gagged in a work in the automobile line, the outcome of which is being anxious ly awaited in the far of "Death Val ley" of the borax region in southern California. If the enterprise is suc- cessful, it will mean revolutionizing not only of the methods of getting borax out from the hills, but also pro- bably radical change in transporta- tion methods in various parts of the West, where there are large deposits of gold ore, assaying $5 to the ton, lying unav ailable, because of the pro- hibitive cost of transportation.
 The work being done is the building of an automobile train of an engine and seven cars. It is designed to take the place and do the work of ], 200 mules and 24O drivers, saving $1OO, ,OO0 annually. For its use a macadam road loo miles long is now being built over the shifting sands through the Rocky pass and along the mountain sides in the borax valley. The engine is a movable power plant for genera ting and furnishing electricity. It is fitted with two three-cylinder gasoline engines of seventy-fve horsepower each, which will run up to 300 revOl- utiOns. These operate on loo kilowatt dynamos. This engine will run at the head of the train of cars and by means of a coupling tongue the current gen. erated by the dynamo will be trans mitted to the cars, each of which will be driven by two motors of it's own. The cars, while driven independently, will be worked in train fashion, with the engine guiding. The train is de- signed to move at the rate of four and half miles an hour"
