TEDDY" RUNS AWAY
AUTO is USED TO CATCH
POLICE HORSE.
Thought That He Overheard and Under
stood Drivers Boast-Was
Doing Penance.

Some time ago Teddy" a horse con-
nected with the local police DEPART
ment, treated one of the mounted men
attached to the First Precinct rather
harshly, and Director Barrett requested
that he be punished and made to haul
a patrol wagon. This was done n
Teddy was transferred to the Fourth
Precinct station.
At first all went well, but the horse
gradually discovered that his labors in
creased and became more laborious and
that he was subject to calls both night
and day. Last week Driver Bonnet,
one of the regulars of the Seventeenth
avenue station. was allowed a week
off, and the various m of the
reserve who filled in had their hands
full in getting Teddy to ven walk.
On one occasion Captain Vogel and
others had to get into the battle with
the horse.
The climax was reached last night,
however, when Bonnet, with police
man ~Rottenburg, answered a wago
call and removed Martin Salthy, IS
years old, of 27 Hillside place, to ST.
B~arnabas's Hospital from Belmont ave-
nue. n Spruce street, where he was
taken sick. While on the way to the
hospital Bennett began to boast of how
easy it was to handle the horse In
spite of what he had heard. Apparently
Teddy took it all in. for when Bonnet
went to assist ~Rottenberg in carrying
Salthy into the hospital Teddy took
French leave and broke away as he
had never done before-that is, since he
started to haul the wagon-and when
Bonnet and Rottenberg reappeared on
the street Teddy, wagon and all was
gone.
"If someone is playing a trick on me,
the same as they did on Bicycle Policeman
Alliston," said Bennett, IN show them
who they are dealing with" With Rot
tenberg, the driver searched Quitman,
Montgomery, High and other adjoining
streets, but Teddy was not in sight.
BY this time Teddy had reached Clinton
avenue, and he dashed into Broad street,
and Walter c. Pent, of 272 Halsey street,
who happened to be passing, gave chase
in his automobile, and he overlook the
horse at Franklin street and led it to the
First Precinct Station. Sergeant Bohle
notified Sergeant Brown, and Policeman
Bernauer was sent to bring Teddy back.
The various members of the department
believe that Teddy, tired of the surround
ings west OF High street, had once more
wandered to his old pasture. In the race
Teddy lost both his rear shoes aud slightly
Clipped both hoofs.

NEW YORK. Aug. 14-According to Of

the general opinion that the change is

A French Musical Prodigy.

OST or our ''uusical prodigies"
n n are young people vino play ex-
V traordinarlly well on some In
e.rument--the piano perhaps,
or the violin; sometimes those who inn
provise wonderfully. as the young Mo-
Fart did. A different kind of prodigy is
described in La Nature, Paris, oct 81
in the person of q 7-year-old French
girl who has remarkable musical ear,
retaining in her mind the notion OF alb
solute pitch with great accuracy. This
faculty, we are told. she has possessed
since early childhood. Says the writer:
1T was quite by chance that the par
ents of Yvonne Borderon became aware
OF her precocious faculty. One day the
cat, wishing TO jump upon the piano.
placed her foot on key and
sounded a note, At once Yvonne. who
was playing near by, stopped and an
nounced that the cat had struck r
sharp; she must have already learned
the scale, because she knew what we
call the language of music, This
was only a first indication OF the ease
and certainty, and also of the speed,
with which this child recognized the
pitch of notes, If a drinking glass
were struck, at once, without refec-
ton, by sort of reflex action, .
she would tell that it gave G nat With
the same precision and the same speed
she would indicate the pitch of an auto
mobile horn, a cyclists gong, an cleo
trio buzzer, a locomotive whistle or a
church bell. The question of quality
was as Indifferent as that of the octave.
She perceived at once the position Of
the note in the scale.
One fine day, after playing to her
some high harmonies on the violin,
some acute notes on the flute and oboe,
