Bots in Horses.
his state

This trouble is due to the maggots
or grubs of fly which fasten them
selves upon the lining of the stomach
and sometimes that of the intestines
of the horse. The female fly deposits
her eggs singly upon the hair of the
lower jaw, neck and forward legs of
the horse. They hatch in a short time,
and the tickling sensation produced by
the young grub causes the horse to
lick the place, and thus the grub passes
into the horses mouth and from thence
into the stomach, where they soon
fasten themselves by numerous minute
hooks in rows upon their white wrink-
led bodies. After about two months
the bots pass from the horse and bury
themselves III the dung and remain in
the dormant pupa state until the next
season, when the fly begins the round
of trouble again. The maggots irritate
the coat of the stomach and cause the
formation of puss upon which they
feed. There is no remedy for this
troublesome parasite. A dose of physiC
may help to dislodge them, or hasten
the time for their removal from the
animal.

How Shrewd New Yorker Became
Colorado Millionaire.


Troy Times.
An accident illustrates how small a
matter may change the course of hui
man life. While on the way to Cali
fornia, in 1878, a heavy snow blockade
compelled the train to remain over at
Cheyenne. 1t was but short distance
to Denver, and Mr.. Robinson, with in
bred love of observation, decided to
make the trip. He reached Denver
just at the time when fabulous stories
were circulated concerning Leadville's
mineral wealth. 1t required but a mo-
ment to decide our hero that he must
see Leadville. SO tucking his San
Francisco tickets into his pocket
(where they have ever since remaineD,
he hired wagon, and was soon at the
new Ell Dorado. He saw at once that
capital was in demand, and Immediate
ly opened a store and filled it with gen
eral merchandise. He made money
very rapidly. In accordance with the
custom in the West, he gave "grub
stakes" to prOspectors; in other words.
he gave small supply Of provisions to
men who desired to prospect for mines.
on condition that if they discovered
mineral he should have an interest in
their discoveries. These grub stakes"
proved quite profitable. Through q
grub stake" he secured one-fourth in
the famous Robinson mine, the richest
in Colorado, situated in Kokomo, about
sixteen miles from Leadville. Ascer-
tanning that it was very valuable, Mr..
Robinson bought another quarter FOR
$4,000, third for $4,000, and finally
the fourth for $4,000, and became it's
sole owner After "opening it up"
partially and disclosing it's extraordina-
ry riches, he stocked" it few months
ago at New York for $10,0O0,0OO. 1t
has already paid two dividends to the
lucky stockholders, with promises of
regular quarterly payments hereafter.
Three-fourths of the stock are still
owned by Mr.. Robinson, and this alone
must be the source of royal income.
Within eight months a city OF nearly
l,OOO people has sprung up at the mine,
and is known as "RObinson's Camp"
1t is growing daily, and by the time the
map makers of Colorado find the new
city, doubtless it will contain several
thousand people. This, in brief, is the
biography of one who is but 50 years
old, yet millionaire by his own labors,
and one Of the most prominent men in
his state.

A Father Who Melted.

The other evening citizen of Detroit
beckoned to his 12-ye&r-old son to fol-
low him to the woodshed, and when
they had arrived there he began:
"Now, young man, you have been
fighting again! How many times have
l told you that it is disgraceful to fightP''
"Oh, father, this wasn't about mar
bles or any thing of the kind" replied
the boy.

man it is my duty to bring up my chill
dren to fear the Lord. Take off your

"But, father, the boy 1 was fighting

"Can't help it. Calling names don't
hurt any one. Off with that coat!"
He said was the son of wire
puller."
"What! what's that?''
"And he said you was an office
hunter!"
"What! what loafer dared make that
assertion?n
cit made me awful mad, but didn't
say any thing. Then he called you a
hireling."
"Called me hireling! Why, I'd like
to get my hands on him!" pulled the
old gent.
Yes, and he said you was political
ickspittle!"
leland o. gracious! but wouldn't
like to have the training of that boy for
about five mlnutes!" wheezed the old
man as he hoped around.

boy, "and then he said you laid your

"What yo' ask me dat for? Mebbe

A merry laugh was all the reply this
non-commital statement received, and
Juno nearly fell off her chair in aston.
ishment, as she recognized Vieve's sweet
voice.
"Yo' own maw'd nebber know vo,.

So We've had her way, and the SOL

with excitement at her strange position.
but fortunately for her, the news of
great battle had just been received. so
the soldiers did not stop to chat, as thew
sometimes did with Juno. The next
day Juno was no better, so We've went
out again.
Toward the middle of the forenoon,
two young officers strolled across the
parade ground.
"Come, Cap.," said one, "you've
not seen our cooky-woman yet, and I'll
swear you never tasted such cakes
Hullo!" he exclaimed, discovering
Juno's absence. "She isn't here to.

They went on, however, and bought
supply. Just then anothe officer, riding
by, refined in his horse suddenly, ex-
claiming, George Fordman, by all
that's holy! Why, man"
He never finished his sentence, for
the old apple woman, with a long, low
cry, had fallen upon her table. In the
confusion which followed, her bonnet,
wig, and glasses fell off, and t,a.pale,
pretty features of a young girl were re-
vealed to the incredulous gaze of the
officers
"Vieve Hildegarde here!" cried
George, clasping her in his srms.
Juno, who had seen the catastrophe
from her window, hobbled out and call
ed to them in wrathful tones:
$50 long way an let my lam alone,
you mis- able good-for- mullins. Go long,
| say!" By this time she had reached
Vieve's side, and George made her I'M
derstand that he was nc ravening wolf.
Of course, he had not been killed at
Bull Run, and We've made no more

IN FRUIT TIME.

YELLOW the harvest fields with golden grain,
And the white bearded bending barley ears
Nod in the soft south breeze; the poppy hides
Her scarlet glory from the MONDAY sun,
Amid their sheltering stems; the clover
patch
Is flushed with roseate glories-and the lark,
His speckled breast gemmed with the morn
ing dew,
Springs up with clear, shrin note, all-ju-
bilant
Toward the broad blue heavens; the culver
ing oats
Rustic their waving pennons, and the vetch
Her purple petals shows.
The orchard lands y
Teen with a wealth of fruit; the russell pear
Neighbors the red streaked apple; dark blue
plums
Their luscious tears let fall; green gagesswell
Beside the blooming damsons; apricots
Their golden globes leaf hidden on the wall)
Perfume the air; and the pink, downy peach
Vies with the rosy tinted nectarine
In dainty fragrance.
Ripening hang the nuts
Upon the laden boughs; the clusters brown
OF russell haZels; the spiked bursting husks
OF polished chestnuts; and the teeming store
of mellow walnuts. Autumn tide hath come
And pours from out her overlooking horn
Her welcome blessings on the grateful Earth !

The Right to Criticise the Judiciary.

THE Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
has just rendered decision of great i'm
portance to the bench, the bar, and the
press. In January last the Lancaster
Intelligencer published an article charg-
ing that the Judges of the Court of
Quarter Sessions in Lancaster County
had decided certain case wrongfully
from motives of political partisanship.
The editors were both members of the
bar. They were ordered by the Court
of Quarter Sessions to show cause why
they should not be disbarred for con-
tempt of court in making this publica-
ton. They duly appeared and avowed
their responsibility for the article ard
their readiness to make good the charge
before jury, saying that it was pub
lished solely in their capacity as conduc-
tors of a newspaper, in good faith, with
out malice, and for the public good.
Notwithstanding this defense, the
Court of Quarter Sessions adjudged
them guilty of professional misbehavior,
and ordered their names stricken from
the roll of attorneys. A writ Of error to

Fall River Statistics.

ACCORDING to the figures of Fall
River man the capacity of the cotton
factories of that city is 100000 pieces
per week; allowing that these pieces
average as 1-2 yards each, there are T.
100000 yards produced in a week, or
57S,560,O00 yards in year. The Fall
River man continues to figure, and
shows the capacity of the factories in
the most striking light possible by as
serting that if this vast amount of cloth
were made into shirts every man, wom-
an and child could have one and one
half each. He does not show, however,
of what earthly use half of shirt
could be to any one. The Fall River
man does some more figuring; he finds
that if the 578,560,00 yards were un-
rolled in straight line it would 90
round the earth 3-5 times, and rightly
concludes that cit would make very
respectable tail for comet" When he
undertakes to ascertain just how billions
of South Sea Islanders could be supplied
with wardrobe, the man becomes be-
wildered with amazement and dares not
give his figures to the public. Without
these it is safe to say that vast amount
of business is done in the cotton factories
at Fall River, and it is to be regretted
that it is likely to be interfered with by
general strike on the part of the opera
tives therein.-BOSton Post.
