RIDE IN EARLY MORNING

Dear Aunt Laurie:
When I was a small girl. about 9
years old, my mother took my sister
and me to my grandfather's farm for
a weeks stay. The first evening we
were there 1 followed my uncle to the
barn to try to milk the cows. l soon
tired of this diversion, chiefly because
l could not get milk, and began to
explore the barn. I slid down the hay,
teased the little pigs and chased the
poor little calf all around the barn
ward until I grew tired I then threw
hav down into the horses managers.
1t was then that l saw Dan. He
seemed very gentle and tame, and
asked my uncle to let me ride him.
OF course uncle did not want to
bother with me, but he promised me
that if I would get up early the next
morning he would let me ride awhlle.
1 don't suppose he ever thought OF
having to let me ride horseback for
he knew that l was very fond or
sleeping till late.
was delighted at the prospect of
taking my first horseback ride. 1 had
visions of myself being the best rider
in the country. oh, yes ! would get
up early!
The next morning. after having
dreamed all night about horses. 1
awoke to see the sun just peeping
in through my window. How hurriedly
I dressed 1t seemed that l could not
get my clothes on fast enough. l was
afraid that my uncle would have left
the barn before I reached it: but upon
arriving at the barn door I saw Dan
already hitched, and with my uncle's
help I climbed upon the saddle abck.
O-h-h! how far ii looked from the
ground! IL gues you'd better hold
me-tight, uncle" tremblingly
gasped. With Uncle Ben's protecting
grasp 1 felt much safer After a few
turns around the barn lot, Uncle Ben
saw that I could hold on quite easily,
so he let go of me. 1 did not know
this, however, and I rode on, chatting
away. until I turned around and saw
Uncle Ben a long distance from me.
/ was frightened then and began to
shake. This probably made Dan ner-
vous, for moment later I found my
self lying quietly on my back and Dan
.capering toward my uncle.
Thus ended my first horseback ride.
The next morning I tried again; this
time with better results. Your loving

ready for their southern flight. 1t was
a long drive into the next county,
among the wooded hills of Southern
Indiana.
We came to a little cemetery where
rested the great t-great-grand-
parents of our family. The wild rose
vines were creeping over the graves.
We had hitehed the pleasant horse
in a little glade under a widespread
ing beech tree. We looked back to see
how he was getting along, but we
saw him not. Running to the fence,
we beheld one shaft broken. There was
only one house in sight. Mama ana
I ran to it as fast as we could, for we
thought the horse was sick and would
die.
A friendly man came and pronounced
him all right and mended the carriage
so we could go on. Returning, we
kept the horse at a lively gait down the
hills and arrived home without further
mishap.
Upon inquiring we learned that this
horse lay down every time he was
hitched. Your niece,

A QUEER DRIVE

Dear Aunt Laurie:
AS 1 haven't had any real expe-
rience with a horse, l will tell you
about mammals experience. Mamma
lived on a farm in Minnesota and her
father had many horses.
She used to have to go for the mail,
a mile and a half every week. A black
colt by the name of mig" was the
means of travelling to the postoffice.
He always wanted to turn back and
come home. Mamma would let the
reins go just for fun to see what he
would do, and sure enough, Mig would
turn right around and start for home.
Then mamma had a hard time to get
him started for the postof1ice again.
The road was narrow and there were
trees on both sides. Sometimes Mig
would go around tree to turn around
After several such performances
with Mig mamma finally would reach
the postoffice. After she got the mail
Mig really would go-and that was In
the direction of home-but Mig was
always very gentle horse. Your

We could go together. / tried very
hard to get one, but failed, SO he bid
me good-by and was gone.
Now it happened that l had to go
to town and l had to pass his house
on the way. AS l came past he came
riding out the back yard and came
very close to me. Towser. my dog,
began barking and growing at the
horses heels. The horse gave quick
bound and as it was unexpected, the
jolt sent Paul rolling on the ground.
He lit on his side.
As quick as | could I ran to help him
up, but just then his mother, who had
seen him fall came running from the
house He was taken into the house
and when the doctor came it was
found that he had enc arm broken and
a few bruises SO that was the end of
his proposed pleasure ride.

Dear Aunt Laurie:
The first horseback ride | ever had
was when l was Z years old. An old
work horse was pastured in the lot
next to where we lived. He came un-
tied. Papa went over to him and put
me on his back. Then papa took the
rope and led him up and down the
street, This was my first horseback
ride.
I have had many good times on
horseback since then. Especially last
summer, on my uncle's ranch in Es-

and two calves. He had just bought
the place before we came there. He

LATE TRAINS

BURNING OF TWO SPANS OF
TRESTLE OVER CHOCTAW-

TRAFFIC ON p. e. A. DIVISION.

Passenger train No. 4, due at II: 05
a, m, did not reach this city yester-
day until 2:30 o'clock in the after
noon, due to the burning Of two spans
of the bridge over the Choctawhatchie
river, between Caryville and West
vile. The early train from the city
yesterday morning got over all right
and without delay, as repairs had
been temporarily made before that
train reached there. The bridge burn
ed early Friday morning, and No. 4
was caught on the other side. The
crew of that train assisted in quench-
ing the fire.
No. 4 makes connections at Pensa-
cola with the northbound No. 4,
which at F'lomaton makes connections
with Mobile, Montgomery, ETC.. and
itself passes the southbound No. l
from Selma. A special No. 4 was made
up at Pensacola yesterday and des-
patched on time, this equipment to
be used in bringing Alabamians by
the hundreds to Pensacola today and
tomorrow to witness the carnival
ceremonies.
When the delayed No. reached
the scene, a second section left for
Flomaton, going there and returning
and turning the Jacksonville sleeper
over to the main line trains on that
division.

Mr.. Elliott Dexter and his company
in THE Prince Chap" which has
registered an entire seasons run in
New York city, one year in London, a
year in Australia and a tour of the

scribed as one of the most convincing
and faithful portrayals written of life
as it is today among every day people,
ranging from the deeply pathetic to
the highly amusing, embracing heart
int crest, tender sentiment. romance,
humor, comedy and artistic depletion
OF thoroughly human characters. Mr..
Dexter is great favorite all through

he was born and reared In Texas,
