I once read some where-I think it must have been in the Bible-that all human beings have certain inalien- able rights, among which are life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
 From that time forth I insisted on getting them, and I am forced to ad- init that this sinsistance has got me into a lot of trouble. Still. I am doing fairly well. still have life. occasionally have the pursuit of happiness although up-to date I have not hotisssbly Of the rights I Have spoken Of. 1is- crty Is the most difficult to obtain continuously that is. It is particularly difficult to obtain in the state of Connecticut, where ' recently went, no ether place to go occurring to me at the moment started.
 All went well enough till reached what was probably village a little after dark, and was stopped by an elderly man with kind face and blue coat who wanted to know what was the matter with mo.
 l assured him that as f!A as knew there was nothing the matter with me, and inquired if he asked the question because he was a physician or quarantine officer of something
 He said he was neither of these things. adding that his question was inspired by the fact that I didn't have the right kind of lights on my car.
 1 then asked why he didn't inquire what was the matter with the lights. and added that in default of this question by him I would ask it.
 What is the matter with the lights?" I said.
 They ain't regulation" he said.
 'All right" said, thanks for the information."
 That ain't the pint" he told me. You gotta get out. You're under ar rest
 For whatY'

 Would you mind calling him out and asking him to fine me and let me go?"

 When do youehink he will come
 Cant tell. He jest went in. Some times they last three quarters of an hour and sometimes an hour and a half, according to how interesting the experience is." But I can't wait here an hour an a half" "Ye can't hsy?"
 No I can't"
 Why can't ye? Because I am in a hurry. ana it's getting late, and I don't like this place."
 What ye got agins the placer" Well it's dirty, and the streets are muddy, and I don't like the com pany here.
 "MeanIn' nne?'
 T said the company"
 Perhaps you'd rather wait some where eIse?''
 T would, lot rather"
 "Afs right, come along with me"
 went along with him. We walked side by side, chatting pleasantly about "5edses' and prayer meetings till we came to & small square brick building with bars on the windows.

 So I was locked up. The "jedxe" when he came out at the end of what must have been ga most interesting meeting said I shouldn't have been locked Up and fined me ten dollars.
 I told him my rights had been No lated, and he agreed with me. I said would sue the city. but he said that couldn't be done. I would have to sue the constable who arrested me.
 Has he got any money or property or anything?" asked.
 "on the contrary he owes every body in town and has five or six judgments for false arrest against him already
 So l didn't get my rights after all. I seldom do. But am still hopefully pursuing happiness, though losing a little ground on every lap.

yesterday on his way from Syracuse to
RIverhead l.. 1. He will not officiate at
Columbus this week. but will give the
word "Go." to the trotters at the Suf-

Four-year-olds to-day race in open
classes md to all intents and purposes

so many years ago when colts OF this
age seldom started except against young
sters of their own years. and the limit OF
their speed was nothing like that of the
mature trotter whose lengthy period of
training had drawn out the best that

blood having been introduced into the
breed in the last forty or fifty years,
the steady reduction of the records for
four-year-olds and younger trotters
seems to be due almost wholly to the
process OF selection and developme at
by the breeder and the trainer.
The first four-year-old that attracted
much attention was the bay colt Ethan
Allen that afterward set the record for
trotting stations at 2:25 u. Like the

Seen and Heard in
the Horse Market

Shippers OF horses to the English
market have been notified by the Inter-
national Mercantile Marine Company,
on whose ships most of the horses are
transported. that hereafter all OF them
must be accompanied by certificates
from licensed veterinarians showing the
mallien test for glanders has been ap-
piled within ten days of departure from
American ports. This is new regula-
ton of the British Government, designed
to prevent diseased horses from being
imported.
George Watson, the live wire of the
export and import trade. has arranged
to ship about one hundred work horses
to London on October 4 on one of the
specially fitted live stock steamships Of
the Atlantic Transport Line. Before his
departure Mr.. Watson Is going to sell
twenty saddle horses and a large Inn
portation OF fine English saddles, brides
breastplates and horse clothing in
special auction at Durland's Riding
Academy on September IS. the horses
being sold at night and the equipment in
the afternoon. This will be the first
sale Of the season at Durland's, and will
AFFORD an excellent opportunity for those
who are coming home from the country
to buy everything needed for the autumn
riding season.
William Durland returned last week
from his summer vacation In Canada
and New England. and Immediately
booked four special sales OF Hne horses
to be held In the next few weeks at
Durland's Riding Academy. He reports
several other sales In prospect. and says
the outlook for both the sale season
and riding season Is unexpectedly bright
Fiss, Doerr g. Carrolrs auction sales
are picking up with each succeeding
week as the busy fall season In mer-
camille lines approaches. The supply Of
fresh Western horses has never been
better In the month of September than
IL is this year, and though prices are
hardening the buyers have rarely seen
more favorable opportunity than at pres
ent for replacing their worn out teams.
Three carloads Of Iowa and Illinois
horses will be on the market this week
for the regular Monday and Thursday
auctions aat the Twenty-fourth street
mart.
The Bergen Horse Company sold more
than 100 horses on Wednesday, the reg-
ulsr auction day at the Jersey City
stables. Prices for seasoned workers in
good condition were very satisfactory.
but the fresh Western horses looked like
bargains for the buyers.

auctions every Tuesday at their Rut-
