LIVING in THE PAST.
BY CAPT. J. LAwLER DARBY.

The passing away of the Confederate
soldier, and the cd darkey. master and
slavel What an immense field open for
thought! Will this or any future genera
tion look into the faces of so many in
tellectual giants and listen to such tom
CUES? Perhaps the culture and beauty
with good manners will remain, / hope
they may, but there will never be the
good cheer, the lavish hospitality the rich
harvest of the fields and forests
Living in the past! Today 1 met a
friend and comrade strolling along our
crowded highways, seeming neither to see
or hear, only thinking. He had gone back
to the parental home, the grain and
clover fields, and like the child he was
looking at the colts romping in the mea-
dow, the cattle and sheep feeding in the
pastures firing of this he looked up and
saw in the distance the same most beau
tifully blue of all mountains. He hears a
sound, tits the old farm horn ringing as
clear as ever The mules hear, they know,
and answer. The plowmen start their
noon-day song. At the gate. the animals
tired, law upon the ground turning first on
one side and then the other, then up,
quench their thirst and to the trough
The darkies battle their faces, take din
ner and then nod until work time.
Friend, your dream was of things fifty
years ago, they are gone. And gone, too,
are those who loved you. The clear wat
ers of the Shenandoah in passing your
slumbering dead send back their echo to
you, whispering. Come on, - L am
waiting for you"
Oh yes, it was spring time then, 1t Is
Indian summer now The flowers have
withered. the leaves have changed their
color, getting ready to fall.

ing the winter by saying the horse had
made his marks after similar winter to
that through which he is now passing.
He also referred to the future prospects
fy saying he would not be put in training
Until probably June |. This letter from
Mr.. Savage is interesting ard is given in
part as follows:
Charles Plummer, who is caretaker for
Dan, tells me the great horse is never
better contented than when In the cold
Minneapolis climate. He declares Dan
is actually fond OF sleighing and that he
enjoys the Minnesota weather exceeding
ly. AT present Dan Is out of training
altogether though he is logged two or
four miles every day. In these joys he Is
allowed to go his own gait, which is
anything but fast as he wants to look
at the houses and the people.
Dan is the most gentle champion with
which have ever had any dealings what
ever. He is so quiet in his manner that
my little boy, Harold, eight years old has
often driven him. OF course. some older
person would be in the sleigh as protec-

apples and sugar the Santa brought him.

as he will not make his appearance on
the ice track but win be driven a little
every day to sleigh. He seems to en-

Dan will be handled again by Byron Nc
Henry. Mr. Savage, who IS proprietor of
the International Stock Food company,
says he is more than satisfied with the
trainers management and will allow him
to campaign the champion as long as he
is willing to handle him. The other horses
in the Savage barn are being cared for
in the same manner as is Dan Patch. In
cluded in the lot art Directum and a
number of other well-blooded animals
Many of these are brood mares and 1t Is
expected that quite a number of high

great favorite with children of the local.
ity and his return to Minneapolis was
looked for by them as much as the COM
ing of Santa Claus.
The disposition of Dan Is certainly re-
markable and no one would ever dream
of my having a champion in my barn.
When he arrived from Macon Ga, he
was met by brass band and thousands
escorted him through the streets. This
he did not appear to mind In the least
Rather he went along as quietly as though
he was participating in the escort of some
other champion.
Dan will not have any work whatever
until June. He will not be asked to show
even a 800 gait during the winter rms
was the way he was handled last winter
and the result, as you know, was good.
Last year he did not see track from
November to June and you know how
quickly he came to his speed. This season
will be the same.
