UNCLE SAM’S CHARGERS.
Cavalry FElorses Are Selected For the United States Army.
I happened to be at the Presidio not long since when the eontractor for furnish- ing cavalry horses ta the government sub- mitted several animais toa board of army ifficers detailed to make the final inspec-
Of the horses presented culy ene was rejected, and that was. on account of i cold brought about by exposure to drafts
hile in transit from tSe point of prelim- inary inspection to San Francisco.
A preliminary inspection is made at the place where the contractor purchases the animals by a representative of the govern- , who generally accompanies the con- or on his horse purchasing trips, thus ling the expense of buying horses which are sure to be subsequently rejected for various defects. At the preliminary inspection a few first class, many fair and of indifferent and medi-

xere horses are presented. The contractor informed mse that about one of every 50 examined at the preliminary inspection comes up tothe requirements; that he had
traveled for three and four days at a time, visited horse ranches and looked at several hundred horses without seeing one that came up te the specifications. i was also informed that the class of horses required by the government are getting very scarce in California, and that many ef the cav- alry horses now at the Presidio were pur- chased in the states of Oregon and Wush- ington.
Cavalry horses are purchased by the quartermaster’s department under the contract system. Proposals for furnishing cavalry horses are invited, and the con- tract is awarded to the lowest bidder. ‘The cavalry horse must bea gelding of hardy color, 4 to 8 years old, 1544 hands high, and weigh about 1,000 pounds. He must be gentle under the saddle, free and prompt at the walk, trotand gallop; broad forehead; eyes large and prominent, and possess perfect vision. He is thoroughly examined for splints, side bones, ring- bones, curbs, spavins and any trouble, lo- cal or constitutional, which may tend to shorten his usefulness or render the ani- mal unserviceable. The nostrils should be large and occupy nearly the whole facial structure. The mouth should be small, with thin, firm lips. The eyes should be large and mild, with fine eyelids. The ears should be delicate and pointed. The feet should be of medium size, due regard being given tothe size and shape of the horse,;and there should be no visible dif- ference in the feet as to size and form. The tail is more ornamental in well bred than underbred horses. A fine silk mane characterizes well bred horses.
The cavalry horse must be without blem- ish or defect, sound in every particular. Literally speaking, it is more difficult for a horse to get into the cavalry service than it is for a recruit to enter the army on his “vst enlistment.—San Francisco Chron-

Too Mauch “Wafting.”
Ezra Stiles, president of Yale college, 1778-95, was one of the most learned men of his day. He was always a student. He took up Hebrew after he was 40. He knew Greek and Latin thoroughly and wel- comed Dr. Franklin to New Haven in an oifhand Latin oration. Among his lin- guistic studies were tho Chaldee, Syriac, Samaritan, Arabic, Coptic and Persian ignguaces.
He corresponded with Indian Parsees, was something of an electrician, some- thing of a mathematician, something of a chemist, something of a theologian, and loved to indulge in political speculations which, strangely for a New England par- son of that generation, were full of breezy democratic optimism. He mapped outan jdeal commonwealth, which he confident- ly expected to appear on American ground, of which Chancellor Kent said, ina Phi Peta Kuppa address, that ‘‘it was far su- perior to the schernes sketched by Milton or Locke or Hume.”’
President Stiles was not a large man, nor had he an imposing presence. But he loved to weara big wig much becurled and was fond of ceremony. Though a prolific writer, he published little, but left forty odd bound volumes of manuscripts, which are preserved at Yale.
A fragmcent, quoted by Donald G. Mitch- ell in his ‘‘ Amcrican Tend and Lefteis,” shows that ¢.-a iu those days “spréad eagleism’’ flourished. Eulogizing George Washington in an election sermon, he says: i :of swoeter perfumo than Arabian spices iu the garden of Persia. A Baron de Stenboes- shall waft its fragrance to the micuarch of Prussia. A Marquis de Lafayette shall waft it to a far greater tiotarch and diffuse thy renown through- ous Kurope. Listening angels shall catch the odor, waft it to heaven and perfume the universe. ”’
‘Rather tall Writing for a Yale piel: dent in our day,’’ is Mr. Mitehell’s eis: ment, ‘‘uniess indsed he were writin? on tho eve of a football revival.’’—Youth’s Companion.
