In Christian art the horse symbolizes goodness and generosity. It is said by competent persons over 100,000 horses are every year kill¬ ed for food in Paria Assyrian monumental records show that cavalry and war chariots were used at least 2,600 years before Christ. Arabiaiv horses were introduced into Europe during the crusades, the Barba- ry horses during the Moorish occupation of Spain. The most famous horse in Spanish literature was Don Quixote's Rosi- nunte, and the most famous donkey Sane ho’s Pauz&’s Dapple. During the most heavily armored pe¬ riod of warfare all evolutions requiring celerity were executed by infantry, the cavalry being the slow moving arm of the service. As early as the time of Julius Crosar, 64 B. C., British horses were famous for their size and strength. In his writ¬ ings Ca-sar mentions them as exceed¬ ing in most particulars those of the coa- tinent Most Christian readers will be sur- p r j, sw i to learn that the archangel h.Hnjy|is i " qprovt Mohammed, dad-jxith a, /n’the steed named jj a ni To Koran is duo the credit of mounting Gabrie in good style. The standard of the Saxons was a white horse. It is worthy of note that the hair of the Saxon wojnan was not red, but yellow; therefore the joke about the redheaded girl and the white horse, though ancient, is of later date than the eighth century.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. STAGE GLINTS. “Captain Impudenco” will not go out again this season. Ben T. Ringgold has rejoined the company of Robert Mantell. “The Heart of Maryland-” will have a London production next seaeon. May Irwin has decided to spend the summer at Carlsbad in Germany. Harry Blitz and Katherine Brown were married at Jersey City recently. Mrs. Maurioe Grau, Lloyd d’Au- bigne and Mme. Theo have gone to Eu¬ rope. Maude Adams will make her stellar debut in September at the Empire thea- " r,;::’. ^ ysis of the vocal cords. Anton Beidl has an arrangement with Mme. Oosima Wagner by which he will conduct the Baireuth performances of “Parsifal” next summer. An aspirant for honors in the field ef necromancy and its contingent features will be offered the American public next season in the person of Olivette. Mary Hampton will resign from E. Ti. Botbern’s company, and Virginia Harned will resume the part which she originated in “An Enemy to the Imng. ” Isabel Irving has been engajriid as leading lady for John Drew’s company next season. She will temporarily re¬ place Agnes Miller in “Never Again.” FIGS AND THISTLES. There is no safe side in any kind of sin. Nothing can make people go blind any quicker than filling their eyes with gold dust. When the right kind of a man is taken out of the miry clay, he knows enough to stay out. The fact that there is so much stuff that shines like gold makes the story of disaster one of the saddest chapters ever written.—Ram’s Horn. Now is Four Time.
