HoRsEsnoEING, - Perhaps, never
since the first horseshoe was invented,
has its OWL been so great as ut the pre-
sent day. Ono Of the great errors is SO
many now ideas Of shoes. From the
veterinary to the lawyer has the brain
been racked for some new tangled
idea, supposed to be a benefit to the
hOrse-if not tho horse, the Inventors
pocket. There is the Goodenough, tho
Seeloy, the John Billings, the keystone
and numerous others. Each of them
has been trying to benefit the speed or
draft of the horse, forgetting that tho
usefulness OF the horse depends on the
adoption of the shoe to the foot, not to
the ground. / find that lamencss in
most cases Is caused either by the shoe
made too narrow at the quarter and
cutting the foot to fit the shoe or the
shoe being concaved or bcveled from
the outer edge inward. Every time
the horses weight presses on the shoe
1t produces contraction instead Of cx-
pansion, causes fever in the foot, there
by destroying the healthy condition
of tho frog and causing 1t to shrink
from its wontcd size, thus preventing
it giving the moisture and elasticity
that nature intended It To supply to the
foot. The bones of the foot are three
in numbor-the coffin bone, the navic,-
lar bone and part Of cOronet bone.
These are contained within the hoofand
combine to form the coffin joint; but
the smallest Of thcm-the navicular
bonc-is Of far more Importance as
connected with the shoeing than eth
CIR of the others. Upon the healthy
condition Of this bone, and the joint
formed between it and tho tendon,
which passes under it to the coffin bone,
and is called the navicular joint, main
ly depends the usefulness Of the horse
TO man. Therefore, it is very imDor-
tant that the shoe should be so con-
structcd rs to keep the foot in its natur-
al state. The manner generally pur-
sued in pairing the foot is to cut away
the sole so it can be dcntcd with the
thumb and finger by pressing hard up
on it; also cutting out the sole between
tho bar and the crust ut the heel and
leaving Il sharp edge on the crust to
rest on the shoe, which is fitted to the
foot from expanding us IL grows up.
When the sole Is scOopcd out SO much
at the toe the shell cruet of that part
contracts and causes what Is termed
timber toe. While this defect prevails
the hooi, fctlock joint and tiba Cor leg
bonc) remain almost in Il straight line,
so the horse is Obliged to walk on his
toes, which causes short stepping and
stumbling, Another error, too gencr-
ally pracliccu, and which causes con-
traction Of the heel, is the scooping out
the sole between the bars and crust
which causes the crust to harden and
contract, producing what is called corns
which are nothing more or less than
bruises Of the sole, resulting from the
turning in Of the crust, causing pres
sure on the bone and lancncss.

SUICIDE
The Ending of a Bad Mans Career

The rapist, VIM. johnson, is dead.
He anticipated the hangman BY depart
ing this life at an early hour this morn
ing through loss of blood, caused by
wounds inflicted by his own hand.
The poor fellow had been suffering
through several days of last week with
a bilious attack and was sent to the
Jail hospital for treatment. Friday
night last Mr., Connolly was passing
the hospital quarter, and, looking in,
ne found johnson chopping at the
top Of his own head with a broken
plate. He had dug a rather serious
hole into his flesh, but no bones were
broken. The keeper called for.assist-
ance, but William had by that time
got hold of an old shovel and with it
he made the blood fairly fly from the
top Of his Uranium as he hammered
away upon it. The mar was finally
overcome and DR.. Marable, the Jail
surgeon, was sent for. He dressed
the mans wounds, but johnson would
not allow them to remain so, and he
tore the bandages off. The blood
flowed freely from the freshly opened
wounds, the man weakened more and
more from the loss of it and this
morning death relieved him from all
earthly cares. DR.. Marable declares
that johnson was perfectly sane, and
that his only motive in acting as he
did was a desire to leave the world by
his own hand rather than to do so by
his neck legally broken after
a trial by a jury of his peers, John
son, it will be remembered, commit,
ted the heinous crime Of rape upon a
little girl of ten or eleven years of
age some time in June last near the
foot of Beal street. He is said to
have originally come from Evansville,
Ind, where his mother and brothers
now reside, An inquest was held on
Johnson's remains during the fore
noon and arrangements were in pro-
gress by the county undertaken to
inter them at the public expense.

THE R 7 OF COLUMBUS
How the Aacaronlans Celebrated It
Yesterday.

1t was by a boat excursion to Har-
ris's Landing. on the river below at
Camp 300, hal the Macaronians yes
terday ittingly commemorated the
birth Of the great discoverer, Colum-
bus. They went on the tug Clarence,
Captain Patton, and it was a smooth,
enjoyable excursion. Upon reaching
Harris's Landing, the Macs were duly
received by a delegation Of the best
citizens of the country Whereabouts.
Everything had been prepared that
could be devised to contribute to the
pleasure of the visitors. A couple Of
wagons comfortably fixed with seats
and chairs carried them out to the
plantation of Mr.. Clarke Brewer.
chaperoned by Capt, Thos. Coffee, and
here a splendid barbecue was in readi-
ness. The participants were delighted
with their entertainment and made a
day of it, taking their departure when
the shades of evening gathered, with
their hearts full of kindly feelings
toward their hospitable entertainers.
There is no better nor more whole
souled people in the world than those
who live at and near Harris's Land
ing, Ark. The M~acaronians will keep
them fresh in memory as long as they
do that of their patron saint, the great
Columbus, and they hope to repeat
their visit at no distant day.
