Horses. Colors and Prices.

From the Manchester Guardian.
Has the color of a horse any effect on
its selling price? Ii has a considerable
effect on the price of carriage horses in
America, at least in the eastern states
Horse dealers say that since the intro
duction of motors this color prejudice has
become more marked; as the demand les
sens the choice is greater. Brown is said
to be the favorte color, though il is run
hard by bay, and chestnut is not far be-
hind. Black horses are very unpopular
They are too much associated with fu-
nerals. OF course. the prejudice against
black does not affect horses bred for bust
ness purposes. Last OF all in the public
estimation, come the horses which grad
uate in color from dapple gray to milk
white; the whittier the horse the more diff
hcult is ii to sell. The reason given IS that
the hairs of white horses when they are
shed show up on clothes and on the
cloth upholstery of carriages 1t is more
likely TO be explained by tradition or su-
perstltlon. BY the way, there is a curf-
Gus saying current in many parts of
england that il you meet white horse
the next thing you will meet will be a
red-haired girl. Why? The rarity of
white horses is the explanation of the
saying that there is always a white horse
on London bridge. They say that even
In these days of taxis and motor WAGONS
it is still true.

Billy Murray, the Pittsburgh scout
says that Mike Donlin will ginger up
the Pirates considerably. Billy also
says the only trouble with the team
is that they do not talk enough during
the games. Mike will hand out Just
the line of talk needed on the ball
field says Murray. Games are often
won by talking the other side out Of

The article of ball that Eddie Collins
of the Athletics is playing in the south
has caused Connie Mack to come out
with the statement that Ty Cobb and
Joe Jackson had better fasten their
optics on the New York scion of the

out the season.

Mike Mowrey. the regular third base

Chaplains for French Navy.

From the London Globe.
1t will be news to most persons that the
French navy has no chaplains afioat al
though a moments consideration would
bring to remembrance the fact of the
complete divorce between church and
state in France. The subject is brought
prominently into notice by petition
signed by a great number of the mothers
or widows of the sailors who were VIC
tins Of the accident on the Gloire or the
Liberte. The petitioners are to be found
in the Midi, Brittany, Var and F>inisterre
and they pray the senate for the reap
pointment of chaplains on warships.
