Cummings, Salea WAR SI Some Famoui WafiMog Thc Bclcction of a war horse, one that will staud thc hardships of aa active campaign, requires keen dis crimination and judgment. A mere horse will not do so. Aside from this conformation, which should he more or less compact, and bone which should be of dense quality and of fair ly good size, he must have some pre tensions of good breeding. Without thc latter no horso can stand the wear and tear of active service in tho field, a service moro exhaustivo than any other known, becauBo frequently he must go ou short rations whilo be ing ridden desperately for hours at a time, and frequently compelled to go supperless to bed. In addition to breeding he must have Buoh necessary qualities as intelligence, good dispo sition and cheerfulness of tempera ment and must respond promptly to his master's command, whether on the firing line or on review. As % general proposition the botter the war horse is bred tho better fitted he is for his arduous duties. When President Theodore Roose velt rode to tho war with Spain he se lected a Texas-bred horse of medium size, a bay in color, and whioh ho call ed Texas, in honor of ita native State. It proved to be ono of those wiry and tough beaBts for whioh the Southern plains are noted, and of the breed Fremont rode in his long and rapid trips in times of stress and danger in southern California, sometimes cover ing over 100 miles in a day, the ani mal's only forage being buffalo grass. To bo historically oorreot, however, tho president took to Cuba two horses, one of which died while being landed, the survivor being Texas. The latter was the president's mount during his servioe in Cuba and roturned with him to Oyster Bay. There he died a few years sinoe, and the president, out of gratitude for ?he faithful service of the beast, gave him a deoent burial on Sagamore hill. Doubtless some day the president will erect over Tesas' remains a monument on whioh will be inscribed fitting words. Gun. Robert E. Lee, like nearly all the Lees, was not only a splendid figure on a hone, but a fine horseman and a good judge of a horse. Whtsa a young man, and in middle life, he liked a dash of thoroughbred in his mounts. His father, the celebrated "Light Horse Harry" of the Revolu tionary war, was, next to Washington, the best horseman in the continental army, and tho most commaudiog fig aro. The Lesa-of Virginia inherited their love for tho horse and ?ase, grace and skill In the saddle from a long Uno of anoestora who had served their king in tho field. It was one of Robt. E. Lee's progenitors, Lionel Lee, who rode to the Crusades with .?-.t.... m. - ..imit_i_j ak'rii.aJl' tao uua-ucsrtcu mousru, aim II IDIO lated that the ooat of armor worn by this Lee oan still be assn in the Tow er of London. It wai general Lee's father who imported into this seotiOn the celebrated Lindsay's Arabian from New England. Tho horse stood in the district of Columbia ono or two seasons subsequent to the Revolution ary warland it is a matter of history that his get were highly prised heirs and in Virginia. Washington and "Light Horan Harry" had noticed during the war that the New England men were mounted on horses of un usual beauty, strength, courage and endurance, and learned that nearly all were descendants of a horso called Lindsay's Arabian. Whether ho waa a fullblood or not is not known4 It was at Washington's suggestion that Henry, Lee purchased the stallion. Pure-bred Arabians are olassed in tho stud books as thoroughbreds and oan be registered as snob. Gen; Rob ort. E. Leo's favorito war charger was a oobbuilt gray golding oalled Traveler, probably named after, the oolobrated running horse that his father had once owned which was a son of tho thoroughbred Traveler* The gray gelding was foaled in Weat Virginia, where Gen Leo ; discovered him, and ho rode him in ovcry battle io which he waa engaged from, the siege of Riehmond until he surren dered the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox Goars House to Gen. Grant. Traveler survived hil master one or two years, when his lifo was out short by lockjaw, ono of bis feet being pandered by a rusty nail. Whilo at the head of tho'Washington ORIES. s War Horses. ton Star. I the horne bc liked beat and prized most wa* a small-Hized bay gelding, which was taken from thc plantation of Jefferson Davis in Mississippi while the general was engaged in thc siege of Vicksburg, and which he named Jeff Davis. Jeff, from tho date of ownership, was tho general's constant companion. Ile rode him on nearly all the stricken fields of tho Southwest. Thejaithful beast carried bim safely through the morasses, bogs an^ entanglement? of tho Wildernees ?nd along the bloody troncheo in the region around Spottsylvania Goutt House. Ele witnessed, with his mas? ter, the terrible slaughter at Cold Harbor, where 12,000 Federals turned rigid faces to the sky in upward of one hoar; he bore the general across the James and in front of Peters burg; he traversed the long lines for months at all hours of the day and night. When the end oame, he shared his master's triumphs, and if a dumb beast, through the mercy of God, be permitted to think as well as feel, shared his hopes for a restored Union and a stronger bond between the States than had existed from the hour o? the adoption of the federal constitution. It has been demonstrated over and over that large horses, like large men, are not as well fitted for the march and other duties of the field as horses and men of medium size. A single illustration will suifioei During the four years of oivil war Gen. Abe Bu ford of Kentucky rode a son of the thoroughbred Wagner, he that defeat ed the pride of Kentucky, Gray Ea gle, in a famous race of three mile heats along in tho 50s. The son of Wagner waa soaroely 15.3 hands in | height and weighed only a trifle over i 900 poonda, while Gen. Buford stood six feet in his stookings and weighed 350 pounds. It is almost inoredible ? that a horBe of auch size and weight oou?d oarry a man of such balk, es pecially when it is io be remember od that, added to the general's weight ! moat be taken lato account the Bad- j die, blanket and other necessary ao cou treen eats, which must have weigh ed something over 100 ponnde. | Nevertheless it is stated that he did all the so tb inge and came out of the servite sound, as far as limb and wind are concerned. "Stonewall" Jackson was as pie-1 turesquo in the saddle as he was on foot. The grim old Presbyterian el der had ridden in Ms youth fa West Virginia in raees for an undo, of which ?ot in later years ha wai not proud. At the beginning of the Civil War or thereabouts, some of his admirers presented, him wita ? war oharger satiable for a man of growing fame, and bright, military future.

Thia par it cul or sm m al the general gave the name of Fancy, ?al* though from all aooounta of Confed erate soldiers it fell far short of the title in equine attributes, except in one respeotj he had a fancy whenever the commana halted for lying down and rolling like A dog. Whit the general liked most about him j; aside from his quiet manners was his gait, which he himself described as-being as "easy ss a eradle."

Champions of the Morgan breed of horse have always maintained that Sheridan's favorite war charger was a Morgan, and from ?he description Sheridan gives himself of his charac teristics and general conformation it is quito poBeiblo that they are cor rect. Despite brevity of stature Sher idan was au inspiring figure on a horse. Nature cast a soldier after her own heart when she brought forth Sheridan. Wherever and when ever he appeared in public no placard needed to bc pinned to his baok to tell one he was a soldier. Ile was war incarnate in war times, and whether in peace or war he was a man of no tion-a mun who did things. Time, the crucible in whioh public reputa* tiouB are tested, will demonstrate that in tho facility to use infantry and cavalry effectively at the psychological moment but one other ever exiBtec worthy of comparison-Napoleon Rienzi, ?Sheridan's war charger, .alec lived to a ripe old age, proving tha in some instances aotive servioe i conductive of longevity. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston's favorit mount was a beautiful thoroughbred bay mare called Fannie. Althougl she carried her master through nu j morons battles she was never wound j ed, and tho general never seriousl j but once, whioh occurred on his r( treat to Richmond in 1862. Afte the war Fannie was retired to a fan where she spent the remainder of he days in leisure. Gen. Longstreet was a connoisei of horseflesh. Tbe best was none tc good for him. His favorite oharg< was a handsome 16-hands bay gei?ii called Hero, by thoroughbred Rc Eye, and he by a son of the celebran Boston, who ran 48 races at one, tw throe and four mile heats aud w< 45.

If the Vanderbiltb can utilize some portion of thc almost immeasurable water-power of Now York State so that efficient electric energy may be secured for the operation of their elcotrio lines, there seems to bo no reason why the Erie management may not find equally serviceable water power. When a year ago the Vander bilta confessed that they could not compete with the cleotrio lines for local traffic so that they were com pelled to buy these lines and bring them into the Vanderbilt family, it' was thought probable that the Erie management would find it expedient to imitate this example. So too, to day, there comes information from Troy telling of the purchase by Chas. W. Morse and his assooiates of one of the longer eleotrio linea of New York State, which, if it does not parallel the Hudson river sud the Beaton and Albany competitively at least operates a line built between the two portions of the Vanderbilt system. Mr. Westinghouse predicted some years ago that the electrification of suburban or. long distance railway lineB woYld speedily be followed by the employment of water-power for the cheap generation of electricity, and probably before many years had passed by the use of gas engines of a large horse-power set up in regions where water-power cannot be found. In New England, President Mellen of the New Baven system is persuaded of the soundness of Mr. Westing house's propheoy. The Connecticut river, just above Hartford, and the Housatonio river in various places carry water-power Bu?fioient, except in times cf esoessivo drought, to servo all the electaified lines of Connecticut. It is to be inferred that ultimately the electrification of the New H avon syp - j tem will bo followed by the utilisation 3 of these great water-powers.. New England's water-power, first employed, in a large way by the Slaters, was the basis of her pre-eminence for years as a manufacturing community. After wards, when cheap coal and fairly reasonable transportation furnished a new power producing^ force for the New England manufacturers, there ??? ?disposition to sb*i*don to tom? extent that water power. 8o it was then said that as the first transporta tion < was -by packhorse, by sloop., or schooner, and ister by stsge, ali these ? being abandoned for the steamboat and the railways, so tho hand-loon* having beou succeeded by wateVpow* erf both of these j beoame moro or less traditional when the Pennsylvania began to ship; coal to New England. Now, after the lapse of some fifty yearg, these water-powers are again to be furnished to the railways, nrbair j snd .suburban, ??en long, disfesn??, ie J NewVYork -State and in No? England j Whether- the Erie management can fiod water-power that may mafoh the energy of this kind that wiU serve tho Yanderbilts, ia a question. Certainly it can ntiUse tie great water-power concentrated in that region where-the .Stnlefc^ Pennsylvania sr'e almost ic^ contact at the boundary lino. The ^snderbiiW in the eastern sec - tion will make UBO of the water-power fu mi eb. od by* the upper waders of the j Hud eon t wb er e already a Buffiolent dam and One of >ho^^ j plants have beau built, Then again j ihaw?^ and the immsesareable power ?f thc Niagara currant is to serve in the westorii parts of Che State, inaking the elOotrjflwtfio^ linsa and muob of the traoksge cf the West Shore raUroad, which system is speedily. to ' become aa eleotnfia? line, ;d?pe*to?tj^ 1 '"? 1 ?asa nouncement that the Erie is to bay and to electrify long stretches of rail road, urban and suburban, perfecting that work duriog the year, and seme of tho longitudinal feeders of tho Vanderbilt lines are to be elcotrioet^v in central Now York, illustrates uo\]K greatly the work of railroad electriu-T cation as well srj the con olidstion of various independent systems into single concentrated eystems will be progressed during the year 1906. New York Correspondence in Phila delphia Press. They all Recognized Her. The four oldoaptains of Salt Marsh, after oarefully studying the attrac tions offered by the mind reader who was to hold forth in tho town hall, decided to attend tho entertainment. "We can go right from the post office whon mail's in," said Capt, Gregg, most adventurous of the four, "and there doesn't seem to be any need to oonsult our women folks so sa I know; Moat likely we Bhan't stay more'n a few minutes." They were all agreed as to advisa bility of this plan, and tho next even ing saw them seated in the last row, with interest written on their faces. After a few preliminary exhibitions, which caused the soattered audience to gasp and wriggle, the mind reade) said, in a solemn tone: "There is' ono person in this au dience.. who has been thinking? eve since he came in here of a person wh is perhaps the strongest influence i his life-small, determined lookio woman, with eyes that snap ami At this point the four old captait rose as if moved by a elogie eprin] and filed from the hall.
