How W. b. Denny Handled Spirited
Animals Despite Loss Of Arms.
The late 81. =. Denny, known far
and wide as the "Armless Horseman,
long a resident Of Washington. lost bis
arms by The premature discharge Of
salute over the body Of General George
II. Thomas, says tie New York Times.
For many years he had a position in
the war department, but a year ago he
resigned to give his whole time to his
horses. He was a eagalryman during
the war and always had great fond
ness for horses. lie had owned and
driven some Of the finest singles and
teams seen iii Washington.
His courage and skill with mettle-
some. highly bred animals was re-
marketable He was a familiar figure
on the streets DC the capital and often
drove and won on the race tracks Of
the District and adjourning states. His
driving was marvellous, in that be
seemed to accomplish his conquest Of
the worst horse by talking to him and
so gaining his confidence. When be
undertook TO drivefa strange and spir-
tied team OF to break young horse he
first saw that every strap and buckle
was at its proper place; then he placed
one rein over his right shoulder aud
the other beneath his left arm, the two
reins being made fast with strong
buckle turned under 50 that it was
impossible to slip or come loose. With
the stub Of his arms lie was able to
guide the animals The weight OF his
body against The reins brought the
horses to a slow up il they got fast and
fretful. Twisting his shoulders and
body from side to side, seesawing the
bits Id the mouths until the horses
were willing to quiet down and trot
gently along, he was able to manage
them.
Last spring some Of the owners Of
! fast steppers had a number of races at
Brightwood Driving park, Mr.. Denny's
late home and he had a team entered
IN trottlng race. The young man
who was to drive showed in the line up
that Mr. Denny's team had bad
chance to win. Mr. Denny became ir-
ritated at the stupid Craftsmanship
and, ordering the young fellow out Of
the sullSy, jumped in. adjusted the
reins in a twinkiing and succeeded in
getting a good position, winning the
race easily Many Of the best horse
men in the District and a number from
elsewhere were present, and all de-
clared that they had never witnessed
such q fine exhibition on any track.

CURE FOR HAY FEVER.
mckert & Wells Say HyOmsi VIII
Give Relief Sold Under Guar
natee.

The season for hay fever is almost at
hand and many people feel that they viii
be obliged to leave town In order to avoid
the sneezing. watery eyes and other an
moving symptoms Of this disagreeable
summer disease
Riekert & Wells wish to announce that
when Hyomei Is used, either as a prevent
i've or cure. there win be no hay fever
We advise the use Of Hy0mei daily for
two 0r three weeks before the usual time
for the annual appearance Of hay fever
in this way, the attack will be prevented.
If. however, the preventive treatment was
not started soon enough and the disease
comes on. use Hyomei six or seven times
daily, and also rub HyomeI Balm thor
ouehy into the nostrils both morning and
night This treatment will relieve at
once and give a speedy and permanent
cure.
Hyomei actually brings into your own
home. a climate lilled with ozone and heal
ing balsams, the same air that one
breathes at the White Mountains or other
health resorts.
There is no stomach dosing when Hyo-
mel is used. It is Natures own method
for curing all diseases Of the respiratory
organs, and is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler that accompanies every
outfit, SO that the medicated air reaches
the minutest air cells, killing all germs
aud soothing and healing the irritated
mucous membrane
It Is the one treatment for hay fever
where Riekert Il Wells guarantee to re.
fund the money II 1t does not give salts
faction. All who are subject to hay fever
should begin Its use at once So as to pre-.
vent the disease.

Husky Three weeks' old Boy Left at
 Judge Bronson's.
 A well-developed youngster, lively as a blackfish and demonstrating the pos session of a strong pair of healthy lungs, made known it's presence on the doorstep of ex-Judge Samuel Bronson at his residence, 5S Dwight street. last evening about o'clock. Where the little founding came from or just how long he had been there before being discovered, is unknown. The detectivef are searching for the parents, or at least the mother.
 At the hour mentioned the members of the Bronson family heard a noise similar to that of cat-call coming from the direction of the front door, but paid no attention to 1t for soma minutes. The cries continued and q maid was sent to the door. She per- step, and, reaching down, found it tu contain child.
 The family was summoned and the bundle and it's contents were carefully carried into the house. An examina. tion showed the child to be fairly we'll clad in cheap light clothes and wrapped in a warm shawl. The youngster was a boy, bright and rather pretty, and apparently about three weeks old. There were no marks of any nature about the clothing which might lead to the identification of the infant or it's parents.
 The little waif was given every care and attention, being fed and consider able clothing added to it's wardrobe by the members of the family The police were notified and they took the young ster to the Organized Charities on Or ange street, where it was cared for last night and will perhaps remain for sey- eral days. The little chap went serene ly to sleep shortly after arriving at the Charities home.
