Some time since, on one of the North
river boats, lady, who had attracted
much attention for the masculine turn
of her manners and conversation, was
seated at the table opposite gentleman,
who, in taking some hutter, in the alb
sence of the usual knife, used his own,
which the lady observing, called aloud 10
the waiter:
"Waitta! bring another plate Of but

The unfortunate wight almost ssnk
under the curious gaze of all the COM
pany, but said nothing, determined TO
watch his opportunity TO return, for the
cruel modification, change in her own
coin. He waited but a moment, ere q
plate Of dried beef was handed TO the
lady, who unocremoniously took some in
her fingers, and placed It on her plate.
"Wait-tai I" exclaimed the gentleman,
in turn, "bring another plate Of beef;

A Rich Scene.

A retired clergyman sends us an ac-
count of little affair that happened in
his place. 1t appears that there was q
young woman, fine, spirited girl, en-
gagged at a washtub opposite an open
door. Just behind her was young man,
asis generally the case, and in the yard
was an old buck that was allowed the
freedom of the premises, which was not
always the case, We are glad to say.
Well, this buck came up to the door
and looked in, and the young man, go
ing close behind the young woman,
pointed his finger straight at the buck,
and the old fellow recognizing at once
the pressing character Of this mute in
vitation, put down his head and dashed
forward, and the miserable man stepped
one side and fed; the young woman,
all unconscious of the arrangement, re-
ceived the awful shock without warning,
and passed over the tub; the air for an
instant appeared to be full Of slippers
and wet clothes and soap and hot water
and suds. The next minute the goat
came flying out of the door at q dread.
full speed, bald the whole length Of the
spine, and with wild look in his eye
And for an hour afterward he stood
back of the barn scratching his chin
and trying to recall all the circum
stances of the unfortunate affair.

An Interesting Family.

A family of English colonists, consist
ing of a father, six sons and one daughter,
have for some time past kept their ma
tive town in state Of uneasiness on ac-
count of q family weakness for murder.
According to the stsry, in brief space
of time, the eight persons composing the
family managed to commit over one hun
dred murders. Out Of this number,
some of the gentlemen of the family
were each responsible for thirty murders,
while the young lady only committed
twenty-five, though, but for premature
interference of the authorities, 1t is con-
sidered probable that she would have
completed an equal number. The pre-
decessor of the present Governor most
ungallantly caused her to be arrested,
together with her amiable parent and
four Of her brothers. IL is not stated
what became Of the remaining brothers,
but the poor old gentleman was hanged
about three months ago, and two of his
sons met with similar melancholy acci.
dent on the. 25th Of last month. The
other two and the young lady are still
languishing in captivity, and much anx
ie<y is felt on their behalf, for, unless
the local judges take lenient view O
their offenses on account Of their youth
they have but poor chance of resum
ing their position in society.

The Old Racer, Lexington.

Your notice yesterday OF the famous
Kentucky horse, Lexington, reminds me
of an acccdote respecting him, which is
at your service, if you deem it worth
anything:
In 1868, or early in '64, large numbers
of condemned army horses were Occa-
sionally mustered and sold at auction in
Nashville, Tennessee. On one occasion
string of one hundred or 80 were hitch
ed to the fence to be sold at twelve O'Clock.
A gentleman wanted to buy three or four,
and not being judge Of horses, got an
expert to point few that would do to
recuperate. OF course they were all in
sad-looking plight; condemned, sure
enough. The expert passed down along
the line, marking such as would do to
bid on. In passing down he paused at
very shabby-looking frame of bones,
cycling him for a minute with apparent
interest. After making the end of the
line, he remarked to his friend, "There's
horse back yonder I want to look at
again." So he begins again to survey
the same old horse.
"There is something remarkable about
the horse" said the examiner. "Surely
you would not have me to bid on him.?
said the purchaser. "No, but there's
something about him I don't under
stand," and continued to examine him
very minutely. "This," said he, "is q
high-blooded horse, and worth more
money, five times over, than the entire
troop beside. Still, he is mystery to
me. He is certainly Lexington horse
and yet he is too old for any of Lex
ington's colts. | don't understand it
There's something strange about him
There is no such horse in the country
and yet here he isl" The man hae
never seen Lexington, and was not dream
ing of him.
This led to inquiry where the horse
came from. 1t proved to be the verita
BILE Lexington himself He had beer
captured in Kentucky, thrown into 10,
with others, and after months of "hard
service" turns up in q crowd of ICON

Death or a CentenarIan.

The oldest man in North America,
George lie Barre, of Middle Smithfield,
Monroe County, Pa, died at his resid-
ence lately, at the extreme age of 112
years. He was born in Pennsylvania
under colonial rule, has shaken hands
with Gen. Washington, seen the gallant
Lafayette and the patriotic Gen. Sulli-
van, and was deemed tory in revolu-
tionary days. He was to old for service
in 1912, but he was still hale old man
till within the last two weeks. He had
never been sick but three times in his
life-once with yellow fever, once with
camp fever, and once with typhoid fever.
He used tobacco very freely all his life,
both smoking and chewing, but was very
moderate in his use of liquor Of all kinds.
He took daily exercise in the woods,
among which he had grown up, telling
trees and chopping railroad ties, up To
within the last two or three years. II Is
recorded Of him that in 1863, when one
hundred and seven years old, he felled
trees and peeled three wagon loads Of
bark, which one Of his youngest sons, q
young chap of sixty, hauled to market
for him.

The iScientifc american gives some par
ticulars about newly-invented horse
shee, designed to supersede iron shoes,
and to remedy cracked or contracted
hoofs. 1t may be shortly described as
an India Rubber overshoe for horses. It
is made and lined in precisely the same
manner as the articles of apparel worn
by the human race. The sole Is made
thick, and is roughened to prevent slip
ping. The devise is easily removed from
or put on the hoof and hence, while
standing in the stall or turned out to
pasture, the horse may be left barefoot.
In winter time the covering serves ms .
protection against illness due to the COM
mon practice Of mingling salt with ice
and snow In city streets, while the rough
ened surface of the rubber beneath serves
10 give the animal foothold in slippery
weather. Their cost is one-third more
than iron shoes, but their durability Is
great. They have been successfully
used for some time past.

Hard Times In 1S19.2O-A Great Con.
trast Between Then and Now.

People who complain so much of the
existing "hard times" would do we'll to
read the following, from BentOn's "Thir-
ty Years RecOllections." He says:
"The years of 1919 and 1920 were q
period of gloom and agony. No money,
either gold or silver; no paper converti-
BILE into specie; no measure or standard
of value left remaining. The local
banks, all but those of New England,
after brief resumption of specie pay
ments, again sank into state Of suspen-
sion. The bank of the United States,
created as remedy for all these evils,
now at the head of the evil, PROSTATE
and helpless, with no power left but that
of suing itsdebtors and selling their prop
erty, and purchasing for itself at its own
nominal price. No price for property or
produce; no sales but those of the Sheriff
and the Marshal; no purchasers at the
execution sales but the creditor, or some
hOarder of money; no employment for
industry; no demand for labor; no sale
for the product of the farm; no sound of
the hammer, but that of the auctioneer,
knocking down property. Stop laws,
property laws, replevin laws, stay laws,
loan Office laws, the intervention of the
legislature between the creditor and
debtor-this was the business of legisla-
ton in three-fourths of the States Of the
Union-of all south and west of New
England. No medium of exchange but
deprecated paper; no change, even, but
little bits of foul paper, marked so many
cents, and signed by some tradesman,
barber, or inn-keeper; exchanges de-
ranged to the extent of fifty or one hun
dred per cent. Distress the universal
cry Of the people; relief the universal
demand, thundered at the door of all
Legislatures, State and Federal"
There is nothing, says the Cincinnati
Gazette, in the existing condition of
affairs, or in the immediate prospect,
that can rival what the historian has
pictured above. Everything is not right !;
many things may be very far from right,
but has there been any period since the
innocent days of Eden when they were?
Dull times are hard enough, but gen.
eral prOstratiOn of business is not so
much to be feared as prosperity with a
prevailing epidemic, or with its more
travagance and decaying morals. The
men of 1920 groaned under their trials,
as they had reason enough to do. Some
sank under the weight of their burden.
1t was about that year that Horace Gree
ley's father lost his farm because he could
not raise 800 to lift an incumbrance on
it. The majority of people, however. got
safely through with their difficulties, and
lived to enjoy happier days. If the
croakers of our own generation will de-
vote half as much time to cOntending
with the embarrassments which oppose
themselves, as they give to exaggerating
them, the commercial world is likely to
encounter troubles which it can not
overcome. Courage and common sense
are the qualities most needed just now.
