Arabs Have Pretty Legend Concerning the Origin of Their Famous Breed

of Horse*.

Abd-El-Kad?r. a man of rare Intelligence. descendant of Mnhornet an ! valiant lender of the Algi-rian tribes against the French for l.’i year*, wrote a book on the Arab horse. A French general once queMlor.ed him regard log the origin of that splendid breed and received the following reply, say* Our l*umb Aiftmals: “Know, then, that among us 1’ Is admitted that God created toe licrw out of.the winds and He created Adam out of the Oust. This cannot he disputed. Many prophets have proclaimed that when God would r-eate the horse He said to the south wind: ’I will , bring forth out of thee a creature; he thou, therefore, c •udensed.’ “Then came the angel Gabriel, and. taking a handful of the matter, presented It to God. who formed »berewFh a brown bay horse and said: T r .4me thee Horae and create thee Arab and give thee c hay color. I attach bleostng to the forelock which a>I1* between thine eyes; ttobn shall hr lord of all the animals. Thou shall fly without wings, and tram thy buck 'hall proceed riches.’ Then marked He him with a star on tne forehead, the sign of glory and blessing.”
