Before the Days Of Horseshoes.

Before the Days Of Horseshoes.
Readers of Homer and early classic
authors who speak 80 frequently Of
the horse and the part he played. par.
ticularly in war. often wonder how he
was shod. 1t certainly was not with
metal. Homer's "bronze-hooved"
horses must have received that spe-
cial designation because Of the color
of the hoof 80 often resembling bronze.
The hoofs of horses in ancient times
were frequently wrapped with cloth.
The Romans. 1t is said, used various
methods to harden the hoofs Of their
horses that they might the better
stand long marches. So far as we
know Nero, the Roman emperor, was
the first to have his horses shod. The
shoes were of silver and were clamped
to the foot Nails driven into the horn
of the foot appear to have been In use
in the time of William the Conqueror
in the eleventh century.-Our Dumb
Animals

vantage rock on which Cromwell
stood:
Far away to the northeastward .

and looking more intently / could
make out the roofs and walls Of .
town. It was ancient Cashel. The
gray mass which had caught my eye
was the famous rock crowned with
King Cormac's chapel The rock Of
Cashel is q name known to Irish
people all the world over. Its great
est day was when 1t was the seat Of
the Munster kings, especially during
the reign of the illustrious and munin-
cent Cormac. a
And II the court Of the prelate king
was splendid and brilliant, the king
dom over which Cormac held sway
was worthy Of such capital and such
monarch. It was rich and fertile
and beautiful beyond all power Of ex-
preston. 1t teemed with plenty--itsI
resources were inexhaustible. From
one blue mountain range to another
It was q garden and . cornfeld and
q school all In one. There must have
been q great happiness all over the

phenomenon by means, of Q curious
legend. II you stand on the rock you
can see OF In the distance the Devil'a
Bit mountains.
The highest Of them has q strange
appearance Of having been bitten on
at the summit. The ragged edges
seem to have been made by monstrous
teeth. So they call them the Devils
Bit mountains. For. according to the
legend, the old tempter Of mankind
was once chasing an enemy around
the County Tipperary. The fiend was
both angry and hungry. and he
stopped q moment to take . huge
bite out of the hfliB> to- the north Of

the mouthful Of rock after him. And
there 1t lies to this day to prove the
truth Of the chronicle.
st. Patrick, of course. was before
King Cormac's day. The patron saint
Of Erin was great figure IN Tip

coming Cashel was military strong
hold and the seat Of kings. II 10 re-
lated that two swineherds dreamed
they saw an angel blessing the rock.
They told their dream to the king of
Munster. who built . fort there early

It was in this same century that
Patrick came to convert Ireland. II
was on the Rock Of Cashel that st.

grass at his feet the little shamrock
that ever since has symbolized the
blessed Trinity.

DISPUTE
IN INVESTIGATION
Between Secretary

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Conflict be-
tween the department Of commerce
and States Attorney Hoyne arose to-
day during the investigation of the
steamer Eastland disaster, because
Robert Reid and c, G. Eckliff, fed
eral steamboat inspectors, who gave
the Eastland its last license, were
brought handcuffed before Secretary
Of Commerce Redfield and the steam
boat inspection service board. They
we're in charge of a deputy sheriff,
having been arrested on a coroner's
mittimuS.
Application FOR a writ Of habeas
corpus to take the inspectors from
state officers vas filed with Fed
eral Judge Lands by the inspectors
attorney after a consultation with A.
l.. Thurman, solicitor of the depart
ment Of commerce. Judge Lands
will hear the case tomorrow.
states Attorney Hoyne, called to
the, federal building to confer with
District Attorney Clyne and Mr..
Thurman, said he would oppose the
removal of Reid and Eckliff from the
Jurisdiction of the state. Mr.. Hoyne
said he did not order the sheriff to
handcuff the inspectors.
AS Inspectors Reid and Ecklii' rad
virtually been subpOenaed before h
federal grand jury, it was decided
they should not again be asked to
give evidence before the secretary of
commences board.
During the hearing today, Secretary
Redfield read from instructions to
steamboat inspectors a section ad-
vising inspectors that the burden Of
proof was on them to show that they
were in no way responsible for any
accident that might occur to steam
ers. These instructions were issued
by special order Of the secretary of
commerce December Is, 1918.
No bodies were recovered from the
capsized Eastland today, the known
dead remaining at S39 with lag still
reported missing.
