Sir: The person who signed himself "Sympa-

pride in his horses having plenty of brass, rings.

drivers Of horses that 1 have ever seem 1 am
on the streets Of New York almost every week
day in the year and have plenty OF time to OBJ

Let 'Sympathzer'' take notice Of the Yiddsh
drivers of carbonic water wagons, express. or any
delivery wagon. and "Sympathizers" eyes will
surely be opened to the real facts great many
of the horses the East Side hired by the

livery stables that the S. P c. A agents ought to
