Some Of the elderly men who are
trudging along at the same gait as
ever in the houses where they are
employed at the same salary they re-
ceived twenty five years ago, may
benefit by the following incident,
which occurred only last week in a
downtown store:
A young man who came into the
place less than two years ago was
advanced over man who had been
there thirty years. The latter went
to the proprietor aud complained
that such treatment as he had re
ceiyed after all his years of service
was unjust. The proprietor, without
pretending to notice the complaint,
asked:
"What is the noise in the street 2"
The old employee replied that he
did not know and waited.
Better see what it is" said the
proprietor.
The old employee went out and
returned with the information that
the noise was made by wagons.
How many wagons asked the
proprietor.
The old employee said he hadn't
counted them.
Better find out" said the propri-
etor.
The old employee went out again
and returned with the information
that there were eight.
What was the cause Of the noise ~
asked the proprietor.
The old employee said he didn't
know, and the proprietor suggested
that he had better ascertain. The
old employee went out the third
time and returned with the informa-
tion that the teamsters were hurry
ing to load their wagons with goods.
The proprietor then touched the
bell ON his desk, which summoned
the young r1an who had been advan-
ced. The proprietor asked him;
what is the noise in the street"
II will see" replied the young
man, who went out and returned a
few moments later with the follow
ing report;
There are eight wagons out there
and the transfers are hurrying TO
load them with goods"
The proprietor turned to the old
employee and said:
"Do you understand now why this
young man was advanced over your"
The old employee understood, but
his knowledge came too late. Elk

the wealthy or gentleman farmer to

ing equal, would prefer brood mares
Of good size, but beauty, style, ambi-
ton and nerve should come first.
Often regular cranky" one makes
a first class brood mare, and l have
raised many colts ranging in height
from l53 to rs hands from l5-hand

years ago, but now as scarce as chen

broken-down animal for brood pur-
poses, no matter how well bred she
might be; neither would | condemn
one for lameness caused by accident.
A spawned or ringboned one never
owned. 1t goes without saying that
both sire and dam should come as
close as possible to the type you
have in mind to raise. Although my
large colts from small mares had, of
course. large sires, l prefer extra size
in the dam If either must be larger,
but quality and finish in the sire al
ways. Several years ago bought
an imported Hackney mare about 15I
hands, 100 pounds, with a big
slashing gait and ability and will to
road 10 miles an hour easily. She
has brought me three colts and two

riage, gig or saddle. For several
years | bred to an imported French
coach horse, hoping to raise matcbe d
pairs. | was disappointed in this,
but had one in the lot which
brought fancy price at the New
York Horse Exchange.
CARE OF THE MARE. As to time of
foaling, have had them as early as
March 20 and as late as September,
and see no particular difference in
their growth, provided always
the mare is generously fed, but prefer
them as early as April. This leaves
the mare in good condition to work
through the Summer, and the foal is
big and strong by fly time Mare
and foal are housed at night until
the first of June unless the weather
is very warm. If the mare is turned
TO pasture before foaling she is
always kept at the barn at a little
past the tenth month, where she can
be looked after, have had strong,
healthy foals born in ten and quar-
ter months. | never give the mare
heavy work, and keep her out Of
snowdrifts and off slippery places.
She has a roomy box stall, well bed
ded, and in Winter the liberty of a
large field except ON stormy days; all
the good hay she will eat and occas-
ionally adples, potatoes or carrots,
and always kind words. Her conf
dence is worth having. During the
last month or two she gets a good
feed of bran and perhaps oats. II
she is groomed every day so much
the better.

ON SUBWAY
BREAKS UNION LAW

New York, March 10.-The most in
teresting development in the subway
and elevated railway strike situation
yesterday was the stand taken 10y
some of the national labor leaders in
repudiating the action of the local
leaders, who ordered and are conduct
ing the strike. Grand Chief Stone of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, to which the motormen be-
1onged, insisted that the strike was
a violation of the laws of the national
union, the men having broken their
contract with the Interborough COM
pany. He ordered them to report
for duty, failing which expulsion from
the organization is threatened.
William l.. Jensks, head of the local
Brotherhood of Engineers, refused to
recognize Mr.. Stones right to inter
fere and declared that the men would
stay oUt until they win. 1t is stated
that many of the old men have taken
Mr. Stones advice and returned to

have the case taken from the jury and
a verdict of acquittal rendered by the
court. After arguments lasting
through the greater part OF the day,
Judge Taylor, just prior to the AFTER
noon adjournment, Oyerruled the mo-
ton. The defense also attacked two
counts of the indictment and asked
that certain parts of the testimony or

nOn secured by the defense. 1t is

Unimpeachable Authority-Predict-
ed by Prof. Reinsch.

st. Petersburg, March 10.-Russia is
steadily reinforcing her military
strength, both in men and guns, in the
direction of the Indian frontier.
Sensational rumors of the dispatch
of achievements for Russian Turke,
stan were current two months ago, but
they were then denied. The Associat-
ed Press is now in a position to affirm
their truth ON the authority Of travei-
er of unimpeachabie veracity, who has
just arrived from Tashkend and whC
was personal witness of the military
activity on the recently completed
nburg-Tashkend and other strate'
gic railroads through Merv to Krasno
vodsk. Troops, guns and munitions
of war have been moving southwark
for two months. Between the middle
of January and the middle of February
Sc military trains, mostly carrying ar,
tillery, arrived at Tashkend.
India Only Path to Victory.
The Associated Press is unable here
to obtain any official admission thar
any unusual military move is in prog
ress, the statement being made that ii
guns were going south it was simply
an ordinary operation in the way OF
shifting troops, but Russian OF high
position made the statement in which
he declared that Russia was mot
blind to the manner in which Great
Britain has seived the occasion OF the
present war to buttress all her inter
ests in central Asia, where We have as
vital interests as she; nor can we Rus
slams get over the idea that, sooner or
later, a conflict with our traditional
enemy is inevitable, and we realize
that our only path to victory lies in the
direction of India
The statement then reviews che Te-
cent occurrences in Asia as supporting
his suspicious and justifying Russia's
present course, and continues: Great
Britain has been making hay while the
sun shone, but Russia cannot hold
her hands and see Thibet and Afghan
istan converted into Bhutans and Ne
pals, nor Persia placed completely I'M
der British influence. l have no per-
sonal knowledge of what, if any, steps
have been taken in Turkestan, but
Great Britain will find that Russia Is
not so engrossed or helpless as to be
obliged to relinquish the border states
to her mersy without a struggle"
Prof. Paul S. Reinsch of the univer-
sity faculty, a careful student of the
eastern question, predicted in recent
lecture that when the Japanese had
taken Port Arthur and effectually
barred the Russian southern progress
toward an open port in Manchuria,
then Russia would surely turn toward
central Asia and developments would
come toward great Anglo-Russian
conflict.
