How Xiorlllnrd'a Flycru nro Cnrod
for and Educated'
From thellrooUjn Knglc.
Isur , Lo.vo ISLAND , Soiitoinbrr 211.
Evun if n , man is not acquainted
with the good "points" of n horse and
never puts up his money on n "bou-
tailed na r" nt n race , a visit to n
famous horao-brooding place is do-
cidcdly ititorostitig.
About * tlirco miles from thin
beautiful summer resort is the
summer residence and farm of
Ocorgo L. Lorillnrd , Eight hundred
acres eompriso the extent of the placo.
and a very larjjc portion of the ground
is hud out in such a picturesquu man
ner as to suggest fairyland itself.
What was at ono time only a barren
waste hits been made , thanks to the
expenditure of a vast sum of money
and the employment of the highest
skilled labor , to blossom like the rose.
It is here that all the famous horses
owned by Mr. Lorillard are kept dur
ing the greater part of the year. The
stable is a largo , low wooden build
ing , octagonal in shape , nnd capable
of accommodating qbout fifty horses.
Each animal has a good-sized apart
ment to himself , and the place is kept
scrupulously neat. An army of
small boys and young men
arc employed the year round to care
for the stock. The largest
of thoflo employes arc "rub
bers , " or gnddcns , whoso solo duty
consists in rubbing down the horses
after they have taken their morning
exorcise. In the middle of the large
yard , in the center of the building , are
several hydrants and pumps und a
shower , and hero the horses enjoy
their ablutions in the morning. Near
ly all the stock owned by this famous
horse-breeder has como from Ken
tucky. Early in the winter
Mr. H. K. Oleott , the assistant
horse-trainer employed on the place ,
goes south and makes purchases of
such horses as ho dooms will bo n
credit to the Lorillard farm. Much
of the present stock has boon bought
of General Harden and Sanford A
Grinstcad , of Lexington , Ky. , a live
ly city about ninety miles south of
Cincinnati , and noted the world over
for its fine horses.
Horses are "broken , " or rather
started to bo broken , in the spring
when they become yearlings. They
are trained until the following full ,
when they are laid up until spring ;
then taken out again and the usual
course of training resumed. It is a
little singular , but nevertheless true ,
that blood tells in horses the same as
it is said to do in human beings as re
gards
THEIR I'ECULIAK APTNESS
to receive instruction. To break a
"plug" .as the stable boys at these
farms call all horses outside of racing
stock plugs requires maybe a month's
time. With the racers it is a very
quick matter. They can bo broken ,
so William Jones , an intelligent col
ored lad , informed mo , in the short
space of three days. "Doy seem to
know " he said " what's '
, , "just 'spooled
of 'em , and doy goes right ahead just
as nntr'l as a human being would , fact
is , a good deal nnturollor dan some. "
The first thing done is to put the
bridle , ontho horse , turn him loose ,
and let him got used to the feeling of
it. The next thing is to put the sad
dle on him and lot him run around for
a few hours. Finally , ono of the boys
mounts him , and the training begins
in g od earnest. It sometimes hap
pens that .the horse trains the boy , or
"trains" with him the
, aa coun
try people1 say , for it is no
uncommon thing for the youngster
to bo thrown. Occasionally a
rib is , broken or a leg or an arm
wrenched out of place , but such
trifling incidents as these are taken as
part of the regular business and are
not thought much of. Before the boy
mounts the horse it should bo said
that ho leads the animal around for u
short time. But the training of
youni ; racing colts , under the most
favorable circumstances , is , I am
credibly informed , always exciting
and very often dangerous. But so
export are the youths who make it a
business that within a week from the
time the horse has had o bridle put on
him ho can bo ridden without any
trouble by an ordinary horseman.
Every morning the horses are taken
out in sots to bo exorcised. The first
set leaves the stable at C o'clock , the
second at 8 o'clock and the third at
10 o'clock. Each sot remains out
ubout an hour and a half. The ex
ercising boys como from the house of
rcfugo on Blackwoll's Island , and are
bound out as apprentices. Their ages
are from 8 to 14. Tjioro is a regular
racing track , a milo long , with a
judges' box , where the purchaser of a
horse can .sit and have a good view of
the horse's movements. t Hero , during
the summer , the horses are oxeicisod.
Mr , Oleott , the assistant trainer , must
ahvuys bo on hand to superintend.
As the calvacades pass in review before
fore him ho makes such suggestions
to the riders as ho deems neces
sary , and it is almost needless
to say that he is n man thoroughly
trained in the business. . When ho
was but 8 years old ho rode a race ,
and probably ho knows as much about
horses as a man of his ngo can. He
is up every morning during the sum
mer at 4 o'clock and in the winter at
5:30. :
Exorcising the horses is about the
first thing the boys are set to do when
they arrive at the farm , After they
have served an apprenticeship
of five years at this business
they aro- given a chance to
become horse jockeys , and
that , it may bo mentioned , is some
thing they look forward to with the
utmost interest. Before most of them
can enter n r.ico they are obliged to
train oil' some of the superfluous flesh
to got them down to racing weight.
To do this oflcctually and quickly ,
long walks are taken every day , and
the diet , is carefully looked after.
Toast , collco , crackers and the best
broiled beefsteak are the favorite edi
bles in the bill of faro. In old times
jockeys used to literally starve ofi'thoir
extra fat , but more liborul notions as
to eating prevail at the pres
ent timo. Many of the youth got rid
of many pounds in the regular exer
cising of the horses , Homo have com
menced weighing ono hundred and
twenty pounds , and in a few weeks
beoni reduced to ono hundred and
seven .Sometimes this training is
overdone. The only time that trainer
Oleott % I > B sick in his lifo was when
ho was boy , trying to reduce him
self bjtow ono hundred and throe ,
and at that time ho had an attack 01
brain fovor. in consequence of his un
usual cllbrrf.
Some gossip about a few of the
jockeys who acquired some reputation
may not bo uninteresting.
Tom Costullo is n more youth , nnd
wns taken from ( ho houao of refuge.
The first race ho rode he made $7,000 ,
and ho is said to bo worth to-dny S(0- (
000 , which ho 1ms "salted down" in
good sccmitics.
The regular price paid to jockeys
for riding'a horao is Si-'u if they win
and $10 if they Jose. Hut if they
happen to win there ia no telling what
their fwnings will bpfor the owner
of the horse nlmost invariably makes
the rider a present of a considerable
sum ranging nil the vay from $100
to $2,000. In the case of
Costcllo , last season ho rode
The King at Saratoga. Ono gen
tleman who wns backing the
horse heavily oil'ored him $500 if he
would ride him , whether ho won or
lost. If ho won ho wns to got $1,500.
Costllo won , nnd so received for n
few minutes' work , what is the yearly
salary of many a clerk in Brooklyn or
K ow York , ilu is but 15 years of ngo ,
nnd is very quiet in his habits
Larry Ural is 14 years old. Ho is
the best light weight jockey there is.
This past season ho has done well , and
has ridden more light weight horses
thnn any other jockey at the various
meetings.
Matt Connor is nlso 14 years of age.
nnd has been on 'the Lurillard farm
since ho was 0 years old. Lately ho
has boon nt the Shoepshcad course ,
and hits been successful.
Charley O'Leary is a light weight
who can ride at seventy-live or eighty
pounds. Ho is only twelve years of
ngc , nnd has won porno very good
races this season.
All lovers of. racing will bo glad to
look over this list of the best known
of Mr. George.LoriUard's horses with
in the past few years , and notice the
statement of their total winnings.

f'erida has won twelve races and

year , and would have run it this year
were it not for her lameness.
Topsy , a mare , has boon sold and
was lately at Brighton Beach. She
has won $800 in a dash race.
At the time I wits nt the farm I saw
a set of seven two-year-olds being ex
ercised by the boys. The youths
were mostly whites ; there were , I believe -
liove , three colored boys among
them. They wore dreasod in
a motley manner. Take thorn as
a whole , the horses , who were
long-bodied , thiri'limbcd , bright-eyed ,
and whoso hide's were as smooth ns
velvet , looked better than the boys.
Ono of those two-year-olds was n

Too Old to be Kissed-
St..I/ouls KepuLllcan.
Having climbed the stoop incline to
Justice B. P. Tanflb's court yesterday
afternoon , an nged couple stood upon
the threshold , half hesitatingly , half
afraid to cross it. They looked in
ono another's eyes and then again to
the floor , and said never a word until
Frank McMunus , looking up from the
assault atid battery warrant ho was
writing out , aaid : "Well ? "
The old lady hung her head , one
hand twitching nt the fringing of her
Hack and the other ono clasped in that
of the old man. Fpr a while she said
nothing , but then looking up half
way at the face of her companion ,
who blushed , she said , "Please , sir ,
wo would like to bo " She stopped.
"Married , " said the old man
sharply , as though ho wanted to cot
rid of the word without his knowing
it , "Tnko n chair1 ' taid Mac , They
took n chair nnd ttio Adonis of Bt.
Louts justices of the peace was called
in. With an oxquteitoly graceful
gesture the justice smoothed his
goatoo'nnd got the bonk und told the
aged couple to stand up. They stood
up , both of thorn. Their browa were
somewhat wrinkled ; their checks , too.
There wera silver fitriiiKs through
their black hair. They clasped hundu
while the jttatico read on in a Holomn ,
dignified way , and they answered
taoso awful questions in a husky voice :
"Fgrasmuch aa ' Adam Soifel and
Margaret Bachmau have pledged their
troth in holy wedlock , I pronounce
that they nro mini and wife. Kiss
your bride , sir ! " said the justice.
The old man turned about and *
gazed into the face of his wife. Ilia
ana ho placed around her neck and
lower and lower his face wont down
towards hors until thoyulmost touched.
She , however , throw back her head
and Hlnwly unloosed her husband's
arm. Shn draw uwayfrom him , threw
up her hands and lot them full with a
flop to her side , and with a loud laugh
Hha Baidi "That is nil nonsense , I am
too old to bo kissed. "
"Why the marriaijo aint complete
without the kiss. " suggested Mao.
"Now it aint , ejaculated the hus
band. "Como on ; lot mo kiss you , "
She BiniU'd oilco moro and leaned
towards her spouse half reluctantly ,
Ho loaned toward her. His arm wont
around her neck , nnd his head bout
slowly down until there came an
oscular report which shook the room.
She looked up and her looks Raid that
she was not too old to bo kissed. They
wontnway happy.
AN INDIAN DUEL.
The Chief of the Chootnwn Kills
His Mim nnd follow ! iu
n row Days.
A telegram from Little Hock , Ark. ,
says that the celebrated Choctnw chief
Carpenter is dead. Thn report comes
via Fort Smitli ) Ark. The cause of
his demise in attributed to wound.i re
ceived in n duel fought by Cnrponter
BOino weeks since with Colonel J. T.
Price , near the Pine Creek Indian
agency. The details of the duel are
the strangest on record. The two got
into n quarrel about some trivial mat
ter , when Price called Cnrpontor n
liar. Whereupon thechiof responded :
"Your blood shall wash out this in
sult. "
Price answered fiercely : "My blood
is yours when you have power to take
Price ottered to fight it out then and
there , but the chief refused , saying
coldly :
"Meet mo nt this spot to-morrow. "
"When ? " Price asked.
"When the sun shines nbovo the
top of yon tree , " responded Cnrpon
tor , pointing to a plum tree as ho
spoke. "At that hour stand here nnd
you will BOO mo. "
They sopnratod. The report of the
quarrel nnd the intended duel spread
far Mid wide , nnd by .sunuso the
succeeding morning n largo crowd had
gathered upon the spot to witness the
strange scone.
Price arrived first on the field. Ho
wns quickly followed by Carpenter ,
who appeared just ns the sun rose
nbovo the tree-tops und illuminated
the open spneo upon which Price
stood.
Both mon drexv their pistol. Not n
word was spoken. liaising their
weapons , they both fired nlmost sim
ultaneously. ' Carpenter reeled , but
rallying , they both fired again. This
time Price > dropped dead in his
tracks. The crowd piosscd forward
wild u wild shout. As they did so
the chief fell on the ground sonso-
less. A bullet had entered his breast ;
blood gushed from his mouth , and
ho was thought to bo dying. Price
had been shot through the heart. The
chief had the benefit of high medical
skill and recovered. If his dcnth , as
reported , bo true , ho 1ms nlso fallen a
victim to his enemy. The annals of
the Indian nation contain no moro ex
traordinary cvont than this duel.
Chief Cnrponter was n splendid
specimen of Indian manhood. Ho
was tall nnd str.iight nnd comely. Ho
was well educated and possessed nat
ural talents which placed him head
and shoulders above nearly nil of his
Indian associates , as well ns the more
cultured white man beyond vho bor
der. '

Mr. Spoopondyko , turning painfully

Mrs. Spoopondyko , coming toward
him with n bowl of gruel nnd smiling
plcasnntly.'The doctor says you nro
not likely to hnvo another attack if
you keep very quiet and follow his in
structions. "
"Oh , ho docs , does ho ? " said Mr.
Spoopondyko , making a vain effort to
sit up , and falling back with a groan.
"Ho says I won't have another at
tack. Now , what do you suppose that

haps you think ho could make an

ho is a dod gastod spiritualist. What's
