Horses IN Literature.

In sacred writ il was deemed worthy
Of record that Solomon imported horses
from Egypt. while the description Of
the war steed in Job is accounted one
OF the finest parts OF that piece OF lit
erature. In Greek myth and English
satire the qualities ascribed to Centaur
and the Houyhnhnms testify sufficient
ly 10 the high regard in which the
horse has ever been held. The name
Of Bucephalus is inSeparably coupled
with that OF Alexander. At least one
Roman emperor had divine honors paid
10 his charger. Who can picture Don
Quixote sleeping on his armor with
out seeing the princely RoSinante teth-
cred under the dewy night? And the
stirring incidents OF John Gnpin's ride
concluSiNely proved that the racing
blood OF far removed equine ancestors
was not entirely wanting In the de-

MOORISH SOLDIERS.
Their Methods In Battle and Their
System Of Signals.

System OF Signals.
at 6gbting on horseback the Moors
are adopts and extremely mobile. But
they are incorugibly lazy aud seldom
indulge in night attack. when they
attack in force the horsemen usually
give lift to the foot soldiers who ac-
company them or allow them 20 run

wheel round and retire and make way
for the footmen. who crawl along the
ground. almost invisible. and who rise
TO the attack IL they come within strik-
Ing distance Of the enemy. As a rule.
the Rifhans prefer to lure detached
parties into an ambush or defle and
thus indict heavy loss upon them. The
mounted men seldom dismount TO fire.
and their firing. being from the sad
die. is very inaccurate. Should the ad-
vance OF the white troops be slow or
hesitating the Moors effect a bold
combination between horsemen and
footmen and generally succeed in in
ficting heavy losses on their enemy.
The prime tactics OF the Moors are to
delay the advance Of an enemy as
much as possible by mounted rife Ere
until they can discern its extent and
direction and subsequently TO try en-
veloping the advancing force. The
tribes also indulge IN sniping. but not
to very great extent. and they also
fight individually. They do not neglect
opportunities for stratagem and can
effect some very clever ruses. They
are also guilty Of abusing the services
OF the white Gag in action
The Moorish intelligence system is
an excellent one. and the tribes are
seldom without Information regarding
the movements OF an enemy They
have also an excellent system OF sig
mailing at night by means of small fires
dotted about the hills and ravines.

When Mayor Elliott closed the Sc

the demand of certain people of Fargo
he explained that 1t was In opposition
to his ideas and experience and called
attention to the difficulties that would
arise. He stated emphatically, how
ever, that If the people of Fargo want
ed that district abolished he would keep
the lid on.
He appears 20 be keeping his
promise
Soon after the order was issued for
the closing Of Third street many of
the women left the city. Others Sc
cured rooms in UP town blocks and in
the residence districts. AS rapidly as
possible these have been eliminated.
but the police insist that every time
one place is closed two more seem to
start
It has proven difficult matter to
keep the lid on. The district known
as Lower Front street has become the
toughest corner that ever existed in
the city and the dives down there are
reported to have astonished even old
timers in vice and crime.
Mayor Elliott has instructed the
members of the police force to wipe
out the tough districts and Chief
Grant and his assistants seem to be
earnestly working in that direction.

Henry Stiles Bradley, doctor OF al

DIR. Bradley declares: Happily, we
are getting away from the day when
the denominations spent about as
much time and energy in finding fault
with each other as in trying to lift the
fallen, restore the hayward and COM
vert the sinful. We are coming to
recognize the fact that we are all
working to one great end, that Of
bringing the Kingdom of God rs pass

ence is in method and form of govern
ment."
Happy, indeed, Is this reformed and
enlightened condition. Calvinist and
Catholic today work together. Both
once were wont to light pyres for here
tics. Even as DR.. Bradley points out
It is but Q generation or two ago that
such tolerance as IL indicated by his
present step would have stirred an the
seventy Earring sects to their inner-
most fibre.
Note. now. not only pastoral but
congregational tolerance, as expressed
In DIR. Bradley's own words:
'~The congregation to which 20
win not require or expect me to mod
ify my creed or my teaching. They
believe that I arm teaching the truth
now. and have been teaching il for
years, and they wish II taught from

New York Democratic Faction Seeks
Nation Wide Movement.

New York, Sept. 1S.-The organizers
OF the recent Saratoga Democratic
conference are arranging to extend
the movement started there into other
states in the hope that similar move
ments elsewhere viii help to rehabili-
coming congressional election.
The hope was expressed at Saratoga
that the movement would spread
throughout the country and result ia
a notable revival of democratic prin-
ciples. 1t was pointed out that the
party needed all it's resources for the
coming congressional election.
To further this national movement,
the executive committee OF the New
York State Democratic league, which
has organized at Saratoga viii ar
range at @ meeting next week for a
system of correspondence with demo-
cratic leaders in various states to urge
that they undertake the same sort az
disinterested. earnest propaganda as
that resulting in the Saratoga confer
ence.
The main object in view is to har-
nonize and encourage all kinds OF
democrats to get together on d broad
platform and work together for the
purpose OF securing a democratic ma
jority in the next house OF representa-
tives.
