Near Yrcka, California, . herd OF horses
roamed for several years. They had stray.
ed from their owners from time to time, and
became SO wild by a free life in the noun
taius that they could not be recaptured.
The uncommonly deep snow Of last winter
confined them to q gorge, and they starved
to death. Their bodies, and those of many
deer that perished in the same way, have
been found.

An Ice company applied to the Shakers Of
Niskayvma, near Albany, for permission to
cut ice from lake which is on the Shaker
property, and offered to pay good price
for the privilege. The Shaker granted the
permission, but refused to take any money
for 1t, their principles forbidding the selling
of air, water, or ice.

The Italians have no special fancy for
trees, like the English and Germans. The
only tree cultivated in Italy is the mulberry
tree, which has great practical value as
furnishing food for silkworms. Poplsrs
are raised IN Lombardy only.

A Young Minister and HIS Gun.
New York Sun Of yesterday.

In yesterdays session Of the New York
East conference, In discussing the clergy
men who were on trial, 1t was asserted that
the Rev. j. II. Hand, who IL deacon Of
the second class, was able enough to be
taken into the ministry, but he had not the
requisite devotion for tho work. The Rev.
Mr.. Powell said that the young man was o
hunter, and he thought that Methodist
minister should not take his gun and dog
with him wherever he went. Presiding
Elder Philsbury, said that he had urged
the brother to give his gun away, and to
sell his dog, and if he could not sell him,
to kill him. The Conference passed the
candidate on the question of character, and
