The opening of spring naturally in
creases the demand for saddle horses,
and, in fact, the advance in the use
of such animals has led to the forma-
tion of the Saddle Horse Breeding as
sociatiOn, which has appropriated $500
as a prize for the best saddle horse, and
the latter to be exhibited at the next
National Horse Show association in
New York. This will, of course, bring
out the finest animals in America and
one dealer has just arrived from Ken
tuCky with large number trained for
this service, which will find ready sale.
The horse trade, indeed has become
very lively and one house recently
sold $50 900 in one day. Another house
not only does a heavy business in this
city, but which is also successful, as
spring has also opened branch in
Brooklyn, brings a greater demand
than ever for frst-Class horses.

at that Zine. although u was looked
into 10 some extent. Now Superin-
,endeEt kirkland is having An inves-
tigation made OF the winter webs OF
the insects, and from what has been
done thus far, IL appears that a large
number have died during the winter
from this cause II is thought that 10
percent. and possibly far greater per-
centage. have perished from this cause.
A large number Of the nests have
been collected from trees in the dis
tricts where this fungous disease first
was noticed. and the webs are being
torn open and the dead and the living
larvae counted. II Is long and to-
dious job, when 1t is considered that
there are from 400 to 500 insects in
each web.
Some of the nests have been found
10 contain only small percentage OF
living larvae. Microscopic eXamina-
tions are being made Of each nest. II
the death rate among the little in
sects is found 10 be as high as 30 per
cent. although it IS hardly expected
to be as great as that, il would mean
material check TO the pest. How near
the disease will come to checking the
increase Of the moths is now the SUBJ
jcct of the investigation.

The recent litigation between the
Herald and Outalt. its former cartoon
list, has deeply interested newspaper
circles and the judicial decision in ia
yor Of the former meets general ap-
proval. The court holds that the title
Of the work is trade mark and as
such belongs TO the paper in which it
first appeared, and hence the artist
when Joining another paper cannot le-
gally claim il. This is a serious blow
to Outcalt. who no doubt now sees
that he would have done better TO have
remained. The point in question was
really settled long ago by the Booth
theatre case. Edwin Booth gave his
name to the play house, which he
built, and when compelled to sell he
was determined that it should no long
er be called Booths theatre" The
decision, however, was against him and
thus it is repeated in the recent in
stance.

Hampered for years by inadequate
locomotive and car repair facilities,
the Boston g. Maine railroad has crap
pied with the problem, laid out 100
acres of land over in Somcryilc, which
the management secured some two
years ago and issued orders for the
drafting Of plans for the largest and
most complete railroad repair plant in
the East, S2,0O0,000 being approXi-
matCly the sum decided upon TO be cx-
pended on the enterprise, with the
cost of the land included.
The land that has been set aside'for
the Improvement was for many years
known as the Dirty Marshes with
the Mystic river flowing along the en-
tire length, giving ample facilities for
the construction Of wharyCs and docks
which are TO form no incOusiderahlc
portion Of the plans after they have
been completed.
The locomotive works themselves
will be something entirely new TO New
England, rs they will be equipped with
the most up-tO-date appliances for
the construction and repair Of the
largest and most powerful engines in
the service of the road Inability to
handle its own motive power has been
one of the greatest handicaps from
which the road has suffered for many
years. and il is expected that when
the new shops are completed the an
nnD1 gn,fipp dino n cost and in nIlIP l,1r
time than heretofore will amount to
many thousands of dollars each year.
The car shops also will be equipped
with everything for cheap and rapid
handling Of car work, and when the
plans are carried out to their com
plotion il is expected that the road will
be able to undertake any task Of car
construction or car repairing at any
time and on the shortest notice.

Pointing out the moral lessons of the
insurance investigation before the So
ciety of Ethical Culture and great
audience in Carnegie hall. Charles Il.
Hughes recently declared that the les
sons taught Ivy the disclosures before
the Armstrong committee would he ap-
piled to all manner of corporate busi-
ness and its good effect would be last
ing. and Seth Low held up to scorn the
men who, posing as honorable mem
bers of society. countenanced bribery
under the prctence of protecting the
interests OF the corporations they rep
resented Mr.. Hughes said in part:
Perhaps the most striking result of
the insurance investigation is the
awakening Of the sound moral sense of
the public. The public is relentless in
the demand that the business of insur-
ance shall be conducted as public
trust IL is remarkable how this de-
mand has already influenced the cor
porations. Once the American people
become convinced that a great wrong
exists there will be no rest until that
wrong is righted. In these days YOU
