WHEN HORSES ARE SCARED DRIVER
SOOTHES THEM WITH KIND WORDS
There Is a driver of an Ice wagon
that stops In the morning. In front of
the Imperial hotel who Is preparing
for himself a place In glory, or who
may bave ambitions looking toward a
permanent home In a dime museum.
Probably at night he has gorgeous
dreams of a spieler standing outside a
gaily decorated tent where cabalistic
symbols of mystery are painted about
a group of horses being tamed by a
man, a tent with the flaps bearing in
flaring letters the sign:
"wonas ureatest wonder! A FreaK
of Nature! Most Patient and Humane
Man In the World! A Father of a New
Theory that Horses May Be Led! Very
Rare Outside of Museum! Species Al
most Extinct!"
The Inside horse of the driver's
wagon was startled yesterday by .an ap
proaching car and tried to escape It by
mounting the pavement walk. The
driver did not undertake to beat the
horse baok into Its senses and back on
the street, till it should become a mass
of quivering flesh, an eyesore to human
spectators with no right to Interfere,
and an eloquent witness to his own
brutality nnd stupidity. This driver
was different, and standing by the off
horse, he extended his hand and coaxed
the horse off the walk and Into a state
of quiet.
"Doesn't like cars muoh. does her
waa the conductor's comment as he
watcnea with a curious, almost un
believing expression.
