Glensou put on a peculiar bridle of his own device, and drove him about ns fast as he could follow him. jir. Gleason carried a long snapping whip, and first taught the horse the meaning of the word "Whoa." This, he thinks, is the greatest command horsemanship. As he drove the animal around, stopping here and there before the boxes of the spectators, he said: "It is the habit of almost every person, when driving, to use the word 'Whoa' continually. But I want to say that you should never use the word except when you want your horse to stop.

If you are driving along a street and you come to a crossing or a bad place, and you wish your horse to slack up in speed use this language: 'Steady, there, my But when you wish him to stop then speak out sharply and firmly, If you will practice this in driving you will have your horse in two weeks so that he will understand every command that you give him. You must never give many meanings to one word. You must never lie to your horse or deceive him. You do deceive him if, when you want him. merely to slacken in speed you say and then later when you want him to stop and stand still you say How can a horse understand just what you want of him if this is the system you pursue?

"Bring on tho drum," exclaims Mr. Gleason. AVhen the boy beats it, the brute rears a little, but the whip snap" and the word brings the horse to his calmer senses. He makes up hip mind finally that neither the umbrella or the drum can hurt him. Then they throw newspapers in his face.

Most horses would run away if on a country road, or anywhere, in fact, a bundle of loose papers were throwu at them. This horse, however, did not get the chance to run away. AVhen the first papers were flung at him the word "Whoa!" was sufficient alone, and Gleason did not have to snap the whip mice. Then they tied a string of bells around the horse's belly and a string of tin paus to his tail and set him going. At first the beast acted as if he wanted to kick and tear about, but the exclamation "Whoa!" calmed him.

Then Gleason fired off a gun over the animal's head. It startled the spectators and made the horse jump. "AVhoa!" quieted him, however, and after a few more discharges of the weapon the horse stood still without even the reassuring word. This was all pretty good, but Mr. Gleason said he could "go it ono better." He took off the head harness, and, calling up his attendants, they went through the noisy perform owner wanted to use him with a buggy for his family, but the animal didn't care to have anything to do with a buggy except to smash it with his hind feet and then run away with the pieces.

The horse was good looking, tie was brought into the tanbark enclosure with only a halter and the harness shown in the first picture. Mr. Gleason said his plan was to throw the horse to the ground.

It drew the horse's foot up to his body; then he took hold of the halter with his left hand and pulled the horse's head around to him. As he did so he placed his right elbow against the animal's side and sang out: "Lie down." The beast was scared at first by this unusual treatment The pulling up of his fore leg hurt just a little and ho manifested his disapproval of the necessity of standing upon three legs by fighting and trying to kick. This opposition lasted some three minutes. Mr. Gleason held to his head, and kept it yanked around, and at last the astonished brute went down.

Then Mr. Gleason let him get up, and repeated tho performance several times, always using the command "Lie down, lie down, sir!" as he pulled upon the rope and the halter. Here is how the horso looked when he was downed. But this was only the first step. Horses have no reasoning faculties beyond tho limits of their experience.

It is only through an act that something may be impressed upon them. This horse had had his own way with his owner and with everybody until Mr. Gleason had taken him in hand.

The Choctaw railroad is building toward the city from east to west, and oiiicials will bo here soon on business of vital importance, as there is talk that the road may not run through here. The hotels are all tali. Strangers from all over the country rriv daily. All classes of business thrive And new start daily. The behavior of some of Louisville's belles at a few of the recent suppers given shows how much more liberal society in this city is to-day than it was ten years ago.

At that time had these same scenes been enacted the actors would have been tabooed from good society, and considered fast and wild. But to-day it is, if not applauded, at least countenanced, and looked upon as something usual. In fact it has become more usual than it should. AVhat is referred to is the fact that at several of these suppers several of Louisvile's best known girls have imbibed so freely the good wiues served that they had to be helped from the table to their carriages. At the last of these suppers a scene was witnessed by a few of those present that, to say the least, was disgraceful.

In a room of the house that was not supposed to be used, and iu which the light was very dim, tho following picture was seen: On a sofa in one corner of the room was a young man well known and respected, lie was slightly intoxicated, as was his eompaniou, who is a beautiful girl, and eveu better known than is. He was leaning back against the end of the sofa, one arm arouud her waist, her head resting on his shoulder and her arm around his neck, and both wero smoking cigarettes and to each other in maudlin voices. The' were separated by friends and everything done to keep the sceuu quiet, but it has leaked out.

Mr. Gleason started the horse around, and drilled him on the true import of the command, Beginning on his fright lesson, he said: "You must make your horse understand by examination and experience that the things liable to frighten are really harmless. You must be sure not to whip him for being frightened. Always let your horse face the object of fear, and when frightened remember that the slower you move your horso the more power you have oyer him. There aro times when letting a horse trot is almost as bad as letting him run away." Two attendants theu came into the tanbark enclosure.

One carried an open umbrella, the other abassdrum. AVhile Mr. Gleason drove the horso along, the attendant with the umbrella loomed up before tho horse and flaunted the umbrella in the animal's face. It scared the brute and he started to plunge. Tho instant the trainer saw the horse tremble with fear he snapped his whip sharply aud shouted "AVhoa!" because neither this nor any other horse can think of two things at once, The animal at once halted aud stood stock still.

"You see," said Mr. Gleason, "that the horse is distracted by tho umbrella, so I distract him from that distraction by the crack of the whip and the command The horso stands there looking at the flauuted umbrella. It is some distance from him, and though it is being waved vigorously, he sees that it does not hurt him. Now I have the man with tho umbrella come nearer. He waves it more fiercely.
