American Horses for European Ar

AN EXPERIMENTAL SHIPMENT OF
HORSES FROM THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE FRENCH CAvALRY-A
CHANCE FOR WESTERN HORSE RAIsEBs
PARIS, July, Il, 1S79.-Thirty-two
American horses arrived at Havre on
Sunday for the French cavalry. They
were inspected by French officers detail
ed for the purpose, and were all accepted
at prices ranging from 1,1OOf 70 1,35Of.
(S22O to S270), which are the top prices
for French remounts. The borses were
in splendid condition after their voyage,
10 accidents whatever having occurred
on board ship.
VALUABLE TRADE.
| The success of the experiment is com
plete. Soon as transportation can be hat
! as cheaply from New York TO Havre as
to Liverpool large shipments of Ameri
can horses for the French army will b,
assured. The difference in the price o
transportation is now $50 against Havre
but efforts are making to have this dis
elimination lessened, if not abolishe

THE gas cook stove-at five cents an
the gas engine-at seven cents
an hour-are features Of progress that
should delight such hearts as love use
full labor and feel religious disgust for
Incidence and sloth. What can be more
delightful to the educated and accom-
plished young lady, or the young wife, |
than to be able with her own hands 10 |
make her husbands or her fathers tea
and toast, or broil his steak or chops,
while he chats with her over the news OF
the morning or evening paper? Andthis
without sOiling her hands or her dress or
oyerheating herself, or being annoyed
with smoke or ashes. Really now that
our Coal Gas Company offer gas stoves
at 81, 50, and SIT, put them in without
extra charge and then guarantee that
they will not consume more than "a feet
of gas per hour, and that at Sl.3O per
1000 feet, it seems to us that every family
should have one, if for no other purpose
than to afford the daughters or the ladies
of the house an opportunity to study the
art Of cooking with economy. Why this
10 iabor-saving machine of itself just
where we want it. How frequently i:
the wife of the poor man half worried
TO death with having to make fires, clear
out ashes, combat sitting smoke ant
take care of the little one too when there
is no help, in order to get the meals
ready in time. 1t is not necessary fo
us TO point out these difficulties, they arr
of daily occurrence. What a help thes'
gas stoves would be too to the lonely fe
males who are from necessity compelled
to live in rooms and take in sewing
And 1t seems to us that miniature ga
engine can now be made and put u
anywhere that will drive half dozel
sewing machines, and afford our mantua
makers just such help as they need
These engines can be constructed cheaI
ly and in the most ornamental manne
and made fitting accompaniments for th
most elegant sewing machine to ador
the sitting or drawing room as desired
All you have got to do is to light jet {
sas the size of common burner an
give the fly wheel a turn or two and 0

The SAD DROWNING OF Mr.. foru,
ut Ocean City comes as a waning to care
less bathers, who imagine themselves
capable of contending with the ocean
waves, from an experience in the gentle
sWells on numerous occasions to be de-
coyed into a confidence that leads 10 n
slant destruction in the sight Of hun
dreds of willing but unavailing hands.
1t is little strange that there are no
ropes with boards attached to them
strewn along the beach at our watering
places. Such a rope in the hands of the
men who went TO the relief OF Mr.. Ford
on Sunday would have insured his res
cue. There should be boards with ropes
of eight or ten fathoms attached at inter
walls on all our ocean beaches. They
could be caught up and thrown to
bather as the steamboat hand throw
them on nearing the wharf. Once tn
endangered bather got hold oi one h
could be drawn into shallow water an
carried to the shore. On Coney Islam
the precaution is taken to Tie ropes t

The logs cut on the shores OF the
lake and on tie ST. Louis river will
be sawed at Superior and Duluth,
and will keep our five saw mills
and three shingle mills pretty
actively At work from the middle of
this month till next winter. This
is about double the product of any
former year, and the active com
petition and large quantity on hand
will make lumber cheap here this
season. Many think common will
not be worth over 500 on the cars.
But even this ought to leave
profit, where stumpage costs only
81 90 and often less per thousand,
with little risk of failure IN driving
Besides the above much small
timber has been secured for our
two shingle mills; about 10000
cords of wood got out; 10000 tele-
graph poles; 100000 fence posts /;
100000 railroad ties; 100000 run
ming feet OF square timber, and 5,
coo piles.
So it will be seen that we are not
entirely fooling away our time in
this country The above industries
with the attendant saving and haul
ing give constant employment to a
large number of workingmcn, and
bring several hundred thousand dol
lars annually into the country.
The numbering interest is yet in
its infancy here, but it is destined
TO become one of the most impor-
taut industries in this country.

only question of few years, as
the pine forests further south and !
east are rapidly being exhausted,

REAL ESTATE IN CHICAGo.-The
"spring opening" in real estate is
meeting the expectations Of the
most sanguine. Once more an air
of business pervadss the office of
the man who deals or speculates in
land. Customers keep coming ard
going; there is less haggling than
there used to be; values are estab-
lishcd on a FRA basis, and buyer
and seller experience less trouble in
coming to middle ground. It ls
no longer that the real estate offic :
es are crowded with would-be sci.
lsrs but with bayers-not crowded,
perhaps, in the ordinary sense, but
