To expamd a bit on Bill's recommendation, you can use a standard automotive relay and wire it up like this.

The horn button in the column connects its output wire to ground, so you hook it up to the ground side of a relay and use the relay to switch the battery side of the horn.

I strongly recommend fusing that whole assembly.
