NOVEL SPORT
OF FRENCHMEN
Steers Are Being Trained
to Take the Place of the
Horse in Field Events
ANIMALS INTELLIGENT
FaYOrite Mount of a Noble
man Is an Ok That Has
Been Broken to the Saddle
Special Dispatch to The Can.

PARIS, Dec. 1O.-No fonger is the
steer TO be regarded merely as so much
potential roast beef or as a slow-mov-
ing drawer OF cumbersome vehicles. In
genious Gallo sportsmen have discov-
cred new mission and a new dignity
for him. He is TO be ridden like a horse
and 10 participate in racing, steeple-
chasing and fox hunting. They have
proved that this beast. heretofore cred
tied with abundance of innate "cussed-
ness but little intelligence is capable
OF all these things when properly
trained Several races have been or
ganized to test their capacities, with
results that amply justify the expert
ments now making, for the Frenchmen
concerned have taken the matter up Sc
riously.
Most successful in developing their
latent capacities is q French nobleman
who in sporting circles is known as
lie Baron Ch. c." His favorite mount
IS an OK that can assume various gaits,
gallop swiftly over flats and leap nim-
bly, over obstacles. 1t obeys the rein
or the rowel as readily as a horse. The
bride and saddle used with these rid
ing steers are similar in general design
10 those used with horses, but the bit
is exceptionally powerful For obvious
af1x rubber pads to the ends of their
long horns. In one respect the steer is
possessed Of agility superior to that of
the horse-he can make a sharp turn
when going at full speed.
In a semi-wild state on the Western
plains the steer is capable OF a good
turn Of speed, and at round-ups often
lead cowboys mounted on feet ponies a
long chase How far this may be i'm
proved By judicious breeding remains
10 be seen Heretofore the only object
aimed at By that means has been to
develop their beef qualities. The horse
in its present state is the result of CEN
turies Of evolution directed by human
agencies. II is quite possible, French
scientists declare, that the OK is cap
able Of similar development and i'm
provement and that the result would
be something vastly different from the
present breed.
II is we'll known that in certain parts
Of Africa horses succumb so rapidly to
poisonous flies and other pests that
oxen only can be employed as beasts of
burden In such regions it is evident
that there would be a demand for one
that could be ridden TO saddle. In fu-
ture punitive expeditions in these por-
UOns Of the Dark Continent steer
corps" may be employed by the British
army just as now camel CORPS are used
IN the Soudan. A charge of mounted
steers, with the pads removed from
their formidable horns, would suggest
to the ordinary man the desirability
OF beating a hasty retreat even quicker
than would a charge of ordinary cav
airy. Whatever may be the outcome of
it, the French experiment is certainly
a novel and interesting one.

MRS. MONNIER
MUST EXPLAIN

Tomorrow morning there will be an
interruption in the taking of evidence
in the Monnier will contest while an ef-
fort is being made to throw the wild
owls case out of court and have her
punished for contempt. Yesterday aft
ernoon George Monnier Jr., who is
trying to break the will Of his reputed
father, filed an affidavit charging Anna
Monnier with irregularities in connec-
ton with her deposition. The deposi-
ton was taken on October Is before
Notary Edna r. Keating. Afterward,
II is set forth, copy as transcribed by
the stenographer, was given to Mrs
Monnier to read and sign.
The affidavit charges that Mrs Mon
nier has materially changed the deposit
ton and refuses to sign her testimony
as originally given. She has, 1t is
charged, stricken out questions and
answers, changed the language In
places and altered portion Of the tes-
timony SO as to give 1t a different
meaning.
The changes, It is declared, are writ
ten on the deposition in the handwrit-
ing of her attorney, George d. Col
Inns.
In the absence Of Judge Graham the
matter was presented to Judge Sea
well, who issued the order to show
cause, returnable at 10 o'clock to-mor-
row morning before Judge Graham
Besides the question of contempt for
neglecting to sign the testimony and
for refusing to permit it to be read
to her the widow is ordered to show
cause why her answer to young Mon
nier's contest should not be stricken
from the files because of her conduct
with the deposition. II the Judge takes
cognizance of this latter phase Mrs
Monnier's defense will be thrown out
of court.

LABOR
SAYS ATKINSON
THE SECRETARY DLNIES THE
ALLEGED NEED TO EMPLOY
ASIATICS.

"The statement that it has been
found impossible to secure citizen labor
for the Whitehouse Hawaii road con-
tract is utterly wrong, said Secretary
Atkinson. There is plenty of citizen
labor and it will be employed, and the
contract will be carried out"
The road work in question was con-
tracted for by L. NJ. Whitehouse, and
he was using Asiatic labor under spe-
cial license which had been granted un-
der a claim that citizen labor could not
be secured when Atkinson, as acting
governor took action when the matter
was called to his attention by the
Young Mems Republican Club Of Hilo.
The acting governor had the permit re-
voked and required Whitehouse to use
only citizen labor. Yesterday a report
came from Hilo that Whitehouse could
not get labor and that the Young Mems
Club was willing to conCede that i'm this
case Asatics might properly be used.
Il am quite certain" said Secretary
Atkinson, that the work can be done
with citizen labor if the attempt is pro-
perly made. l investigated the situa
ton and know the facts, and the work
can and will be done with citizen labor
as it should be under the law passed by
the legislature"
