Talking to H0yscs,

Horses can not understand our Ian
guage except so far as 1t is associated
with action. To teach colt TO stop
we must first pull on the halter or
bride and then say; "hor' If he obeys
we should caress him or give him
something to eat and thus continue as
sociating the word with the action
until he obeys readily. in the same
way we touching;him lightly with the
whip as we give the word; if he obeys
reward him as before, Now, the Sc
cret of training properly, lies in using
uniform language, always employing
the same words, every time you want
the horse to do certain thing. This
ambiguous use of language is preva-
lent fault. How frequently we see 8
man get into the saddle or buggy,
gather mp the lines or reins, give his
horse cut or two with the whip, and
say, "Come herew And again, when
he desires his horse to change from o
trot to walk; he will say "holn or if
he wants him to quit gnawing at post
pulling at the halter, or to reprove
him for shying, and for a dozen other
things, he uses the same word "ho. "
This is a common fault with most
men; they talk carelessly in training
their horses, and in managing them.
Be uniform in language. Select a
different word or signal for every
command, and always use each in its
proper place and no other. This would
abolish, in great measure, the abom.
inable Jerking, pulling, whipping and
otherwise abusing this noble animal.

Queen VictOria'S Plc-NicS.
From the Court Circular.

The Queens walks and drives are not con-
fined within her own policies. She crosses
the Dee almost daily, and is quite as often
seen On the opposite side Of the river. She
always uses IN open carriage, but not always
the same. Sometimes it is a Wagonette, some
times low pony pheton. Her guard of
honor accompanies the royal equipage, how
ever. John Brown sits on the box beside the
coachman, and when there is not room there
he rides On horseback by the side of the car
riage. No fuss attends the Queen. An out
rider, little in advance of the royal carriage
clears the road, and the Queen goes quietly
on her way, with a smile and Il nod for any
one who chances to meet her. But as rule
her majesty is not intruded upon, when she
ventures beyond the royal domains, unless on
Sunday, and then it is strangers only who
run after her. The cottagers do not annoy
her, and she comes and goes without moles-
tation. Indeed they make point of kee r-
ing out of the way when the white hors' ,e
the outrider appears in sight. Shoul 4 tho

tedly on her subjects by Deeside, sac is Def

An Affecting Story OF II Jerseynlan Dy-
ing in Chicago.
{From the Chicago Tribune ]

A young man from New Jersey has for
some weeks past been lying at the point of
death at the house Of a friend on West
Adams, and his fatal illness was rendered
the more sorrowful by his constant and pitt
full longing after the home he was destined
never to see again. On Wednesday evening
it was plain to be seen by the grief stricken
watchers that the end was near, and they
asked him if they could do anything to
smooth his pathway to the tomb. The dy
ing man, in voice that was scarcely audible
replied: ''Oh, if l could only taste shad
once more!"
What was to be done. There was no shad
attainable in the Chicago market, and the
dying mans pillow promised to be un-
smoothed by the only attention he coveted,
when suddenly one of the mourners, with
the remark, FI'll play Rebecca and Jacob
with the cuss," rose and hastened from the
apartment, and securing a paper of pins
fried it in butter and lard. Returning almost
Immediately, he placed the dish before the
dying man, who gratefully put layer of pins
between his lips, and feebly chewing at the
fried paper, said in low voice, while ray
of ecstatic glory and peace filled his face: "It
is shad feel the-the bones," and imme-
dialely climbed the golden stair.

The Emperor at Bunker Hill.
(FrOm the Boston Commercial Bulletin


The janitOr who has charge OF Bunker
Hill Monument, arrived at about haf-past
seven, Friday morning, to open the premises
found two strangers in waiting. One, tall,
gray-bearded man, in aslouch hat, asked if
they could ascend the monument. Eyes"
said the custodian, ''you can for TWENTY-FIVE
cents" (holding out his handy
The stranger produced the money and the
custodian unlocked the door and forthwith
commenced sweeping out, raising a cloud of
dust, and paying no attention to his visitor,
who was looking about him curiously, until
half checked with dust, he inquired, eff these
were the steps,
Eyes, all gbt, 60 ahead, go right up till
you get to the top"
The visitor and his companion did as they
were bid, and stayed some half an hour en-
joying the beautiful panoramic view from
the summit after which they descended, and
were quietly walking away when they were
hailed by the custodian with!
'Hyar, just write your names in this
book; all visitors that go up the monument
sign their names here"
The gray-bearded man laughed, and signed
his name, and the two departed.
The custodian never looked at the book,
but some hours afterwards was electrified by
one of the officers of the Monument Associa-
ton who Glanced to come in asking him. in
the most agitated manner, when Dom Pedro.
the Emperor of Brazil, had been there?
"Hasn't been here at all, " was the reply
Hasn't been here Why here is bis sigma
ture on your visitors book. What docs this
mean?
''What p says the custodian rushing up to
the volume. 'What, good gracious that was
written by tall man, with slouch hat"
And 50 it was. but the tall man was the
Emperor Of Brazil, and this was the way he
ascended Bunker Hill Monument, just like

ton.

But the funniest incident of the whole ses-
sion was when Richard H. Dana was address
ing the convention, the joke being at his
expense. He is a fat, puffy sort of man,
with a general disposition on the part of his
body to fill his clothes quite full and run over
little He was seconding the nomination
of Bristow, and assuring the convention that
PC other man could carry Massachusetts, etc.
His remarks were not well received, his man
ner was offensive, and the convention made
no concealment of its impatience. Finally,
at the close of one of Mr.. Dana's sentences,
when he paused moment to gather breath
and inspiration, some one in the gallery
shouted ''pull down your vest" The idea of
saying such thing to blue-blooded gentle
man from Massachusetts, was funny enough
in itself, but the fact that his vest did show
tendency to secede added infinitely to the
humor of the thing. The hit was at once so
audacious and so palpable that the conyen-
ton fairly shouted, and the digniied gentle
man from Massachusetts was himself visibly
embarrassed. He probably goes home more
fully convinced than ever that Western
civilization is failure, and that the true, the
beautiful, and the good find their only safe
abiding place in Massachusetts,.

"A Terrible Instrument.
[FrOm the San Francisco Chronicle. ]

(From the San Francisco ChroniClel
Friday afternoon, at the request of the
japanese Consul, Samro Takaki, the new
gun patented by Leonard and De Vry, and
chrstened peace Conseryator, was eXhib-
tied at the Pacific Ironworks. The prompt
action of the instrument, delivering seventy
shots in four seconds, and l 1850 shots in one
minute, through thick oak barricade, proves
that it is one of the most terrible death deal
ing inventions ever know. The machinery
is simple, easily worked, requiring but few
attendants, who are perfectly protected from
their adversary's bullets, and can be trans
ported with much greater ease than an ordi-
nary siX-pounder. The bullets from this ter
rible machine will, it is claimed, diverge 800
feet in 200 yards-the distance claimed that
it will effectually deliver shots-and can be
easily worked by one person in any direction
or made to shoot almost solid For narrow
defiles it is propose to be equal to 5000 in
fantry, and for combat on the open field
equal to three batteries of regular artillery.
The japanese Consul and other invited guests
expressed their astonishment at the rapidity
and ease with which the machinery was
worked, and highly complimented the invent
ors and the machinists who had brought to
successful completion the "Peace Conserva-
tor"

HOW THE BABY CAME.

The Lady Moon came down last night
She did, you needn't doubt it
A lovely lady dressed in white;
I'll tell you all about it.
They hurried Hen and me to bed,
And Lizzie said: "Now may be
That pretty moon overhead
Will send US down baby.
You lie a. quiet as quiet can be-
Perhaps youll catch her peeping
Between the window bars to see
If all the folks are sleeping.
And then, if both you keep still,
And ali the room is shady,
She'll float across the window-sill.
A happy white moOn-lady.
Across the SILL along the floor,
You II see her shining brightly.
Until she comes to mothers door,
And then she'll vanish lightly.
But IN the morning you will find,
II nothing happens, maybe,
She's left Us something nice behind
a beautiful star-Eshy"
We didn't just believe her then,
For LiZzie's always chatting
The tales she tells to me and Hen
Would make you die s-laughing;
And, when she went out pretty soon,
lien said: That's Lizzes hummingt
There amt bit OF Lady Noon,
Nor any baby coming
thought myself it was fib,
And yet wasn't certain;
And so kept quiet in the crib,
And peeped behind the curtain,
didn't mean to sleep wink,
But, all without q warning,
l dropped right of-and, just You think,
! never walked till morning!
Then there was Lizzie in my bed,
And, when climbed and kissed her,
She laughed and said: "YOu sleepy-head.
You've got little sister!
VIII t made You shut your eyes so sOonH
I've half a mind to scold YOU
For down she came, that Lady Noon,
Exactly rs l told yOu!"
And truly it was not joke,
In spite of Hens denying, .
For at the very time she spoke
We heard the baby crying.
The way we jumped and made a rush
For mothers room that minute;
But Lizzie stopped us, crying ''Hush.
Or else you shant 60 in it ~
And so we had to tiptoe in,
And keep us awful quiet,
As if it was mighty SIN
TO make bit of riot.
But there was a baby, anyhow
The funniest little midget;
just wish you could peep in now,
And see her sQuirm and tidget.
Hen says he don't believe its true
He isn't such u baby ... ....
The moon had anything to do
With bringing us that baby.
But seems to me it's very clear
AS clear as running water
Last night there was no baby here.
SO something must have brought her!

AS evidence of the importance of the water
question, Rome, in its palmiest days, had no
less than twenty-four district aqueducts, and
among these, one was sixty-tbree and another

" France . says the Catholic Rerie,o which
stands ahead of all the world in the sums she
spends upon Christian missions, is also in ad-
vance of any other nation in her outlay for the
purpose of primary instruction. In the report
made by NJ. Levssseur to the Parisian Academic
des Sciences, it appears that France is now
spending seventy-one millions of Francs for her
primary schools, part of which is paid by the
State, and the remainder by the communes and
the parents of the children. This is MORE
says the report, than is spent for the same
purpose by any other nation Of Continental
Europe.

Ihe Boston Commercial List, of the 5th inst.
says that there is in business now an evident
under current of confidence steadily gaining
strength as the season advances. 1t continues
Buyers who have been besitating are now
operating. with considerable freedom, and it
seems to be more generally believed that the
bottom prices which every body has been lookin
for have been touched at last. This is very
important point, and if it could be clearly es-
tabiIshed business would steadily improve and
hard times would soon become legend of the
past.
The first and strongest feature in our market
that claims attention is the large transactions
in WOOL which this week amounted to upwards
of four millions (4,7S4 7OO) of pounds This is
considerably the largest weeks business ever
recorded in this market or in any other market
in this country, and it clearly indicates that
manufacturers have great confidence in the
future. The sales have been wholly for CON
sumption, entirely on manufacturers' account,
and so far as we can see the marke ct is free from
speculation.
We also noticed large number of new buyers
in the boot and shoe market, principally from
the South, and trade seems to be working sat-
isfactorily, though on very small margins.
