A WOMAN AND A COLT.

The Way the Latter Was Trained Acc
cording to tile Ideas Of the Former.
Horse training may be a very fasci-
mating occupation for women. Few,
however, would have the patience,
even if they possessed the good sense,
to adopt the charming measures de-
scribed by writer in the Gentle
woman. This is the way she began
with a young foal that was born on her
estate:
Gretchen was like a shy child at
first, and treated her accordingly. I
did not attempt Ito touch her or follow
her when she moved away, and so in
two or three she would come with her
mother to meet me, and suck Swiss
milk off my fingers. Then I gradually
patted her, and always talked to her.
and when she was days old 1 light
ly rubbed her with soft buster, which
was her first lesson in grooming.
She was only a week old when I
made her a little bride of white web
bling, which she never seemed to notice
as put it on while she was having her
Swiss milk, and all her attention was
taken up with Little Mary at that
time. ~
Daily showed her something new.
For instance, made the groom throw
hot irons into pail of water, to give
her rough idea Of steam coming over
a railway bridge, and also sent him in
to the loft overhead where he made .

hated water afterward
After little Gretchen had become
accustomed to the roads, being some
times led and sometimes driven with
reins, the next thing was to try her
between the shafts Of vehicle. Her
harness was attached to it, and the
wheels were blocked with tiber, so that
she could not move and there she had
to stand In the yard for, at first, only
few minutes, and gradually to half
an hour. Then she was led around to
the front door, and had to stand there,
while got in and out Of the car, until
she would stand quite alone. And so
time passed, and being now years old
and quite strong for work, about two
months ago started to drive her in
earnest, and to my great delight she
trotted off as ouietely as her mother

BAD FIRE In BRIDGEPORT.

Barn of Democratic Candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor Destroyed.
Bridgeport, Oct. 4-The barn adjoin-
ing the residence of General Henry A.
Bishop, the democratic candidate for
lieutenant governor, was burned to the
ground to-day with all its contents ex-
cept four valuable horses. A large
amount Of hay, half dozen fancy car
riages and numerous sets of harnesses
were among the articles destroyed. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
The barn which is large wooden
structure Is situated close to the house,
and the fire gained such Roadway that
1t was only short time before it
spread to the corner of the residence.
The house is frame structure Of an
tique style, and one of the handsomest
buildings in this section of the city
The firemen increased their efforts and
by the use of plenty of water succeeded
in keeping the flames confined to this
part Of the house. The interior of the
house, however, which is elegantly fur
nished, and contains some very vall1a-
BILE paintings is greatly damaged by
smoke and water. Numerous, rugs, car
pets and a number of paintings were de-
stroyed and the whole interior of the
house will be renovated.
The barn Of William r. Hopson,
which adjoins that of Mr.. Bishop was
also totally destroyed, but there was
nothing of value in the barn, as it had
not been in use for some time.
Mr.. Bishop when interviewed to-day
Z said that the loss would be covered by
insurance, but as vet he could not de-
termine the exact amount. 1t is how
ever, safe to estimate the loss at be-
tween 5000 and $4,000

Theodore Roosevelt has been elected

and Democrats alike. The solid south is
broken, both Maryland and Missouri
joining the Republican ranks. The Re-
publicans have a majority of over 100 in
the House of Representatives and will
gain several Senators. Higgins is elected
governor of New York by about 1880;
Delaware elects Republican governor;
Missouri elects Folk governor by close

defeat of Gov. Bates in Massachusetts, by
Douglass, the shoeman, by 35,71O, while
Roosevelt carries the state by 85,279.

ant trip to Montpelier last week Thurs
day to visit the Legislature. The party
left Middlebury at $3.50 on the mixed,
arriving in Burlington about 10: 10 where
they had an hours stop over. They ar
rived at Montpelier at p. m. and as the
legislature did not begin until Q p. M,
spent the intervening time in looking
over the town and the museum in the
State E:ouse. From till the party
were present at the session of the House,
but as the Senate did not meet that day,
they could not attend that. At 3, the
party left the House, the girls spent the
time in looking over the town and State
building, the boys attended a game of
football between Montpelier and Bethel
High School on the Seminary grounds.
One of the sights which attracted much
attention was a 432 Id. black bear
which had been brought in from Gran
vile the preceding day. The party left
Montpelier at p. m. arriving at Middle
bury at $40.

Calhoun violently against the wall
knocking out a tooth, breaking four
others, and rendering him unconscious,
besides giving him black eye and a
badly swollen face. He was able to re-
turn to school Tuesday, but his face was
still badly swollen at this writing.

THE BAND.
The Organization Taking a Rest for a
Few Weeks.

The members of the band have not
|disorganized, as was first reported
but have decided to take a rest, II
in other words, SO many of the boys
are taking to the tall timber that they
have concluded to lay off work for
month, when it is the intention to
again get down to active work.
All tIa people in this city would
regret to learn that the band was
going out of business, as this one o.-
ganization which has worked without
profit, and mostly for the pleasure
they can give and get. is recognized
the coast over as one Of the best
bands organized. The boys have made
such reputation that invitations have
been received from outside cities AMI
the name of the Nevada State Band
is well known outside the State.
AS far as Carson is concerned the
band and the boys have given the
people more pleasant evenings than
any one body has ever furnished. The
people would not listen to the break
ing up of the band under any consider
alton
Professor Smith has placed the
band in the enviable light which t
holds He is one of the hardest I
workers and his work shows for t.
self. He has made many friends, ,ot
only of the band members but of every
one in this city. During his work he
| has turned out number of finished
musicians who are now enjoying good
| positions in other bands.
The band is all right and so is the
| Professor and it is the intention CT
! the members to hold together ami
give the people many more evenings
of pleasure.
