HOW A HORSE GALL0PS.
The Natural Way and the Conventional
Pose In Art.


How does n horse gallopi Owing TO
the rapldity OF action Il cannot be seen
by the human eye. However. Just as
the individual spokes OF n rapidly re-
volving wheel can be made visible by
n flash Of lightning. so the action ~ a
galloping horse can be and has been
analysed by instantaneous photogra-
ply.
The statuette OF Sysonby. the thor
oughbred. has been made from photo
graphs taken at the instant when all
four legs are OF the ground. The back
Is arched. the hind feet are directed
forward. the fore feet backward. so
that all are tucked under the animals
body.
When the limbs again touch the
ground the first 10 do so Is one Of the
hind feet. which Ii thrust far forward
so as 10 form an acute angle with the
line OF the body and thus serve the
purpose OF a spring In breaking the
force OF the impact Of the hoof when
the horse Is going ut top speed.
In the conventional mode Of repre-
senting a galIoping horse all four legs
are on the ground mt ono but the
front pair are extended backward In
such a way that the undersurfaces Of
their hoofs are directed skyward. the
body being nj the same time brought
G the ground. This conventional
pose appears tn have been derived from
a dog running. when the front and
hind pairs OF legs are respectively ex-
tended forward and backward. with
the solcs OF the hind feet turned up
ward.
This pose. II Is thought. was adopt
ed to represent the gallop Of the horse
by the goldsmiths Of Mycenae between
500 and 700 r. C.. whence II was
transmitted by way Of Persia and 81
IBERIA 10 China and Japan. to return

suit OF commercial relations TO west

A LIBERAL OFFER.

After the transaction had been closed

cHAMPLAIN's TERCENTENARY.

The celebration of the 300th ami
yersary of the discovery Of Lake Cham
plain was celebrated upon the site OF
old Fort Ticonderoga on Tuesday.
President Taft was there, and also En-
bassador Bryce of Great Britain, and
ambassador Jusserand Of France. Both
of these nations have had direct and
intimate relations to that old locality
The KEYNOTE of the speeches was
peace. and peace is certainly likely TO
prevail there from henceforth. But Fort
Ticonderoga has had a romantic his
tory The French occupied this region
FIRST, then Great Britain, and then
America, with minor shiftlngs from
time to time, these being the leading
and successive occupants and masters.
The most picturesque event III connec-
ton with old Fort Ticonderoga was It's
capture by General Ethan Allen from
Great Britain in l775, The usual ac
count Of that important incident is that
General Allen demanded the surrender
of the fort 'F1n the name of the Great
Jehovah and the Continental Con
gress. s.'' But Professor Butler, the
"perambulating scrap-book, y declared
that what Allen really said was 'Come
out of this, you old rat'' Which, it
must be confessed, Is a good deal more
in Allen S style than the traditional
demand referred to.
The site Of Fort Ticonderoga was
recently bought by wealthy Amcrl-
can woman. who is having 1t restored,
aud ii will be one Of the great historic
spots of old America. 1t is good to
have the celebration Of the discovery
of Lake Champlain at that Fort, and
it was good that the burden of all of the
speeches was il behalf of an enduring
peace. Better still it is, that the pros
pect of this enduring peace is so bright
that there is not the least likelihood
Of its ever being invaded,
