How to Break a BaIky Horse,
BALKY horses may be divided into three

BALKY horses may be divided into three
classes: t.s
1. Such as do not like to 20 from pure
laziness, or stop when tired and refuse TO
go any further. This is a balky horse in
very mild form, and can generally be
cured by any good horseman.
2. Embrace such horses as are really
stubborn and refuse to go from head
strong disposition to have their own way.
This class are generally the most trouble.
some, but, in fact, are the easiest to
break, and when once broken seldom
make any more trouble
3. Are timid horses combined with a
stubborn disposition, and often refuse to
go from fear as well as stubbornness.
This is the worst form of the balky horse
and the hardest to manage, but can be
broken so as to work good, but can never
be considered really safe.
One important point should always be
remembered in breaking horses; always
speak kind and pleasant, though you may
use commanding tone and even harsh
means, but never lose your temper.
Now, suppose we are to commence to
break balky horse of class second, and
that he is sufficiently gentle to know what
is wanted of him. Put on your harness
and hitch him to anything you desire,
either single or double, as you feel dis
posed, and give him the commanding
word to go ahead. If he goes you have
nothing to do or say but let him 90 on
and do your work but if he refuses to go
take him out Immediately, take all the

He Wouldn't Forget Her.

He was a wonderfully practical man,
and she was wonderfully poetical. To
her, life had been dream edged with gold
and filled in with the loveliest of roscate
hues But to him had appeared every
thing in the home-spun garb of every day
life. He is a country merchant, and buys
his goods in New York. His partner al
ways went to the city on business con-
nected with the grocery, but the partner
was recently ill, and our extremely
practical friend was obliged to go. 1t
was his first visit to the great city, and he
was to be gone three days. 1t was a
momentous event to his fond wife. Do
the best she could her mind was troubled
with forebodings. 1t is difficult to tell
Just exactly how she felt, but while twas
evident he realized the importance of the
step he was about to take, still he never
lost sight Of the fact that a mighty rcspon-
sibility was resting upon his shoulders,
and that all private emotion must be sub
served to public interests. His carpet-bag
was packed, and his hand on the door to
pass out of the house, when she babe him
goodbye. She put both arms about his
neck.
"John," she sobbed, "you are going
away"
This was so palpablc that it would have
been madness to attempt a denial, so he
merely observed:
Look out for my collar, Maria"
"You will think Of your wife while you
are gomez" she whispered, huskily.
He was trine nervous under the pres
sure of her arms upon his collar, but he
spoke reassuringly:
81 will bear it in mind, my dear"
"You will think of me as mourning
your absence and anxiously awaiting your
return 2" she murmured.
I" You can trust me to attend to it," he
replied, with as much frmncss as if ithad
been a request for six barrels of mackerel.
"And you'll be very careful of yourself
for my sake?" she suggested, in broken
voice.
81 will see it attended to, my dear; but
it is almost time for the train" and he
gravely sought to remove her arms from
his neck.
"John!, John!" she convulsively cried,
"don't forget me, don't forget men'
"Maria," he said, with tinge of re-
proach in his tone, 81 have made a
memorandum to that effect"
And then she let him go-still fearful,
but confident d" it would be attended to-"

The Tomb OF King Akbar.

WE drive five miles out to Secundra,
where is the grand mausoleum of King
Akbar This tomb is an immense structure
built of sandstone; its interior sdornments
are strikingly beautiful; its grounds and
tie edifice are about the same in area and
proportions as are those of the Tai; but,
while there is resemblance 10 the latter
in the general outline and design of the
building, it does not compare with it in
architectural subimity. The sarcophagus
of Akbar in the vaujted hall is reached by
long, descending stairways, and only from
the opening is light admitted. The ceno-
taph is plain one, as are also the tombs
of his daughter and sister in another sec
ton of the great building. On the sum-
nit of the mausoleum, surrounded by
marble screens of wonderful workmanship,
is second tomb, consisting of single
block of finely sculptured marble, upon
which appear the ninety-nine names of
God in raised Arabic characters. The
garden surrounding the mausoleum is a
charming feature of the place, filled with
orange, banana, mango, plum and peepul
trees, with profusion of tropical flowers.
The lofty gateway, the splendid avenue
leading to the editice, the tanks and foun-
tans and other Communications now going
to decay, must in their time have been
truly magnificent, and even now there are
features preserved that shadow forth great
ability of design and elegance of work
manship. This tomb is said to have cost
$1,000, 900, equivalent to full three times
that amount, as money has since appre-
ciated. The tomb of Akbar's wife, Begun
Marie, is near by on the opposite side of
the avenue. 1t is an immense two stored
building; the ground floor contains not
less than forty chambers. The plain
marble sarcophagus has no inscription
upon it. From this it is inferred that
Begun Marie was a Christian, for, if she
had protested the Mohammedan faith, her
name would have appeared on the ceno-
taph. She was Portuguese lady, and is
said to have influenced the King to adopt
the policy of federation he is known to
have pursued toward Christians. The
great tomb building is now occupied as an
orphanage of the church mission.-Agra

Charles V. and Antony Fugger.

in the sixteenth century, Charles V.
made considerable loan of Antony
Fugger, at Augsburg, before entering
upon his not very successful campaign
against the Algcrines. When the mighty
Emperor passed through Augsburg after
the unsatisfactory issue of that campaign
in 1911, Antony Fugger received and en-
tertained him superbly in his mansion
there. The vast saloon is still shown in
the picturesque and famous old inn of the
Dre6 Nohren, into which the splendid
tnancier ushered his imperial guest. In
the huge fireplace a pile of faggots of
costly Eastern sandal-wood had been
built up on two enormous andirons of
massive silver, and the banker, knceling
on one knee before Caesar, asked the i'm
perial pleasure as to lighting up the pile
The day was chilly, the hall was immense,
and Caesar graciously admitted that a
blaze would be agreeable to him. Upon
this Fuggcr drew from the mysterious re-
cesses OF the multifarious garments then
worn by people of Importance, roll of
papers, being neither more nor less than
the imperial bonds for the African loan
before mentioned, thrust one end of the
roll into the flame of a wax candle, light
ed the sandal-wood, and tossed the bonds
into the cracking blaze. The courtiers
stood aghast with admiration at such un.
heard-of magnificence, feebly paroded in
our own times by the elder Baron Roths-
child, when he lighted thousand-franc
note and held it near the floor to help a
parsimonious French Duke pick up
louis which had rolled under the whist
table. The Emperor Charles, who COM
bined in himself a rich vein of Spanish
humor with his strong Flemish good
sense, rewarded the lavish financier on the
spot by making him Count of the Holy
Roman Empire, but added, with twin
kle of his cool gray eyes, the decree that
the Fuggers should bear forever in their
escutcheon handsome pair of "asses'
ears. IN. Y. World.

" SnOw-ShOe Thompson"

EVERYBODY in this State has heard of
"Snow-Shoe Thompson, the man who
has carried the United States mails over
the Sierra, through the storms and snow
drifts of twenty winters, when the mount
ain passes were only to be traversed by a
strong man on snow-shoes, but very few
probably know his history, or the difficult
ties and dangers he has met in the Gov
eminent service.
John A. Thompson-for such is his real
name-was born at Upper Tins, Presti-
Jed, Norway, in 1927, and is, consequent
ly, forty nine years of age. His height is
nearly six feet, his weight 1870 pounds,
while he has the blonde hair and beard
peculiar to natives of northern chimes,
and peculiarly piercing eye. He came
to this country when ten years of age and
settled in Illinois with his father, and in
1851 he crossed the plains to California,
living first at Placerville as miner, and
then engaging in ranching at Putah
Creek, Sacramento Valley, during 1854
and 1856. During the early winter of
1856 he heard of the difficulties exper
fenced in carrying the mails over the
mountains, and the early remembrance of
the snow-shoes used in his own country
suggested to him that they could perhaps
be utilized here. He accordingly con-
structed pair ten feet long and four inch
es wide, upon which he crossed the
mountains to Placerville, then the princi-
pal town on the road over which the mail
was carried.

A Confidence SWindie.

THE Pacific Express which arrived at
the Central depot from the West last even
ing brought shrcwd confidence man and
his victim to this city. Unfortunately for
the welfare Of the public, the police be
came acquainted only with the latter indi-
vidual He was tall, smoothed faced
fellow, and wore a look that seemed TO
indicate that he had just attended forty
five funerals. 1t was worse than that,
however. He was hundreds of miles from
home and had nary a red," as he poet
ically described it. He met q young fell
low on the train, and this young fellow
had made himself familiar. He had been
out West and was going there again. He
had acquired considerable money in a
silver mine, Just outside the Black Hills.
1t may have been the Emma mine, though
the man says he is sure the fellow men
toned the Black Hills. He was short of
money, but had some silver. The gentle
man was from Appleton, Wis, and gives
his name as Richard Dunn. Just before
they arrived in the depot, the young fellow
proposed to sell him four small silver bars
worth twenty five dollars. He would part
with them for twenty dollars, and the gen
tleman from Wisconsin could sell them in
any bank for twenty-five dollars. Five
dollars was large sum in the eyes Of the
gentleman from Wisconsin, but he only
had seventeen dollars. He would give
that for the bars, and owe the young man
three dollars. After some hesitation,
the offer was accepted and the young man
received the seventeen dollars, while the
gentleman from Wisconsin carefully placed
the four small bars in his pocket. The
train stopped and the young fellow disap-
peared. The gentleman from Wisconsin
congratulated himself on his lucky specu-
lation. 1t was too much for him to keep.
He must tell some one. An old gentle
man with spectacles came in and took the
seat the young man had vacated. He con
tided the secret to him.
"Lead' was all the old gentleman with
spectacles said to the gentleman from Wis
consin, as he handed back the bar that
had been shown so triumphantly.
What" said the victim, in voice
that caused all the Car to turn toward him.
"Another suckern' mockingly replied
a small boy.
The gentleman from Wisconsin said
never a word for full minute Then he
started for that young man, who had de
parted. OF course he could not find him.
Policeman Burns appeared, and he learned
the story. The small bars were of pure
lead, and worth about twelve cents. When
the gentleman from Wisconsin fully real
lied the operation, his face assumed an
expression wonderfully well suited for a
new chrome, TO be entitled "Sold Again"
Policeman Burns took two of the bars,
which had cost so much, for samples, and
when the train left, the gentleman from
Wisconsin renewed his journey, a saddcr
but wiser man.-I0ctester IN. " Dem

Husking in the Field or Barn.

IT Is question WIN many laIhielo
whether it is better to husk corn in the
field or in the barn, and many expert
ments have been made the past season to
test this matter. 1t does not appear that
these experiments have shown any deci-
siye result either way. One farmer who
has had his corn drawn to the barn and
husked there, the stalks being put away
in the NOW at the same time, has con-
cluded that with three men in the barn, he
can husk as fast as the corn can be drawn
with one team. The gain in time by rca-
son of the greater comfort of doing the
work under cover, he finds is equal to
one-third We have ourselves tried sew
eral plans as promising improvements
upon the old one of husking in the field.
The corn when cut has been tied up in
small sheaves that could be easily handled
with hay fork and pitched rapidly upon
a wagon. Before being bound, the
sheaves lay and wilted half day. They
were then bound and shocked up much
in the same way as small grain, with the
butts wide apart to admit air. In this con-
dition the stalks and corn cured very rap
idly. The crop was then put away in the
barn in the same manner as wheat or oats.
1t was husked at leisure, during the win
ter, the Job not being finished until Jan
uary. All the soft corn was moldy, and
in some places one or two rats had got
into the NOW and had spoiled good
MANY bushels of corn. We never cared to
repeat that experiment Atterward the
corn vas cut, bound and shocked in the
manner mentioned, and drawn to Shed
near the corn crib. Here a long bench OF
planks was fixed upon which the corn
was husked as it was drawn Each huskel
threw the bundle of stalks out of the shed
to the rear through sliding windows
where they were stacked up. Each
husker had corn basket, which, as it was
full, was carried away by boy and
cmpticd into the crib, an empty basket
being left in its place. Two men husked
the corn from a field of thirteen acres
which yielded over 800 bushels of shelled
corn, in nine days. The man and boy
who hauled the corn had time enough tC
stack the stalks during the times that the
team was waiting to get rid Of their load
The total cost Of hauling the crop, husk
ing, cribbing and stacking the stalks, wa:
between five and six cents per bushcl O
corn, which was the cheapest husking W,
had ever had done. 1t certainly does
seem that, at least upon eastern farms
corn husking may be done in a more con
venient, and cheaper manner, than kneel
ing upon the cold ground in the chilly
November days with an occasional snow
storm, or rain storm, as a change
