plication. In his application Mr.. Gill
more requested expeditions action on
the matter.

Mr.. Sinclair will arrive in this city
from Chicago to-day, and he may have
something definite to say about his
plans for the future.

TREAT HORSES WELL
Rules for Their Care in Hot Weather
Given

Given
/. Load lightly, and drive slowly,
2. Stop in the shade if possible.
3, Water your horse as often as pos
sible. So long as horse is working,
water in small quantities will not hurt
him. But let him drink only a few
swallows if he is going to stand still.
Do not fail to water him at night after
he has eaten his hay.
a. When he comes in after work,
sponge off the harness marks and
sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth,
and the dock. Wash his feet but not
his legs.
5. If the thermometer is rs degrees
or higher, wipe him all over with
damp sponge. Use vinegar il possible.
Do not turn the hose on him.
6. Saturday night, give bran mash,
lukewarm; and add a tablespoonful Of
saltpetre.
7. Do not use horse-hat, unless it
is canopytop hat. The ordinary
bell-shaped hat does more harm than
good.
s. A sponge on top Of t he head, or
even cloth, is good if kept wet. II
dry it is worse than nothing.
8. If the horse is overcome by heat,
get him into the shade, remove har-
ness and bride, wash out his mouth,
sponge him all over, shower his legs,
and give him two ounces of aromatic
spirits of ammonia, or two ounces OF
sweet spirits of nitre, in pint Of wat
err; or give him pint Of coffee warm.
Cool his head at once, using cold wat
er, or if necessary, chopped ice, wrap
ped in cloth.
10. If the horse is off his feed, try
him with two quarts of oats mixed
with bran, and little water; and ado
a little salt or sugar. Or give him oat-
meal cruel or barley water to drink.
II. Watch your horse. If he stops
sweating suddenly, or if he breathes
short and quick, or If his ears droop,
or if he stands with his legs braced
sideways, he is in danger Of a heat or
sun stroke and needs attention at once.
IL. If it is so hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night, tie him
outside, with bedding under him. I'M
less he cools off during the night he
cannot well stand the next days heat.

LA TENA'S SHOW is UNUSUAL
Has Best Animal Acts Ever Put on
Here

La Tena's wild animal circus that
gave two performances here yester-
day is very unusual show. 1t Is not
quite like any tent entertainment that
has ever been here. In it wild ami
mails are brought forward though the
acrobat and the trapeze performer are
rot forgotten. And in its presenta-
tion Of wild animal acts several
scenes that are thrilling as well as
interesting are given.
In one den Of lions Is used and
In another a cage Of bears is put on.
The lions and the bears are turned
into a large circular wire cage and
in this the performances are given.
Over the lions a woman becomes per-
feet mistress and one animal finally
is made TO lie down and another is
made to afectionately lie across him.
Then the woman sits down upon the
last lion and one Of the most remark
able pyramids ever seen is formed. In
the cage Of bears man presides and
gains complete mastery Of them. In
this there is much done that one or
