HOW 4 Is to Be Done.

A Sanguire organ of the Bourbon Democracy maps out promising plan Tor the restoration of Southern ascend ency in the National councils in spite of the anticipated shifting of political power as the result of the apportion- ment of Representatives to be based upon the next census. The scheme iS thus outlined: Utah is to be admitted as State, thus giving the Democrats two additional United States Senators and a RepreSer tative. New Mexico is then to be admitted, with a similar re- @ult. Then Texas is tO be cut up in five or six States of respectable size. bringing in ten or twelve more Sena- tors and a p'Oportionate number of Representatives. Meantime the i'm mediate present is to be tided over by the counting in of Democratic Presi- dent, no matter how the election may go next fall. l. is cOmplacently as sumed that this last piece of enterprise can be easily accomplished by Dem oCratic House and a Democratic Sen ate, which ought 10 insure a Demo cratic count IL must be admitted that this is a very encouraging pro grdmme-upOn paper.

It is proposed ere long to give a mu- sical entertainment, the pecuniary pro- ceeds of which will go to assist in paying for the seating of the new church. For the purpose of starting the enterprise meeting was held last evening at the residence of J II Stout, at which over thirty persons were present, nearly all of whom are more or less musical, and all of them pledg- ed themselves to render their best ser vices to the project. It was decided to attempt the presentation of the Canlata of Queen Esther, and prepar- atlons will be at once commenced; re hearsals will begin as soon as the books containing the music can be got here from San Francisco. and if the present degree of enthusiasm contin- ues the representation will take place Tn few weeks.

which corresponds precisely with the
first position in the above series, as can
be seen by turning the board upon its
side, and the same moves will bring
the numbers into horizontal order, ex-
actIy as shown in the large diagram ct
the beginning of this article. The num-
bers can be arranged either way, but
the secret of success is, at the appa-
rently insuperable point, to change the
direction of the columns.
THE MAGIC SQUARE.
No attempt has been made here to
enter into a scientific explanation of
the puzzle or to do anything more than
present one practical method of solv-
ing its difficulties. As fifteen numbers
are susceptible of no less than 1907,
674, ,3OS, 600 different combinations, it
is plain that the mathematical possibil-
tiles of this puzzle cannot be treated
in single article Another form of en-
tertainment which the Gem" affords
is in arranging the whole sixteen
squares in such order that the sum OF
the numbers in every continuous row,
vertical, horizontal or diagonal, shall
be the same. This is form of the old
magic square, which has furnished di-
version to mathematicians for so many
centuries. Magic squares were known

self by cutting the little squares from
cigar box, or by dividing the bottom Of
a square pastboard box, first into quar-
ters and then into sixteenths, and u.s.
ing the lid of the box, which will of
course, just contain them. Or it can be
played with counters on a quarter sec
ton of Il checker-board. The game as
it is sold in the shops, however, is
more convenient, and it can be had
anywhere for quarter or even less.
THE PUZZLE.
The early moves of the game are
simple enough. Starting with the l
and working it gradually toward the
corner, and following with the 2, and
so on, beginning is easily made.
Then you start this line in procession
around the sides of the box gradually
working the numbers in in the required
order. This process cannot be described
minutely, but one soon discovers GER
tain sort of method in it, and it looks
as though the solution of the puzzle
were only question of time and pa,

In England, in 1885, during the reign
of Henry Ill, Walter C. Brown, a
farrier, had a piece of land granted
him in the strand, in the parish of St.
Clements Dane, London, whereon to
erect a forge, on conditions that he
should render at the Exchequer, annu-
ally, for the same, quit rent of six
horse shoes, with the sixty-two nails
, belonging. The custom has continued
ever since, and from it originated the
counting of the horse shoes and the
hob nails on swearing in the London
Sheriffs at the Court Of EXchequer of
the present day From the daily ex-
pense book of the 28th year of Ed
ward |. 1299) we learn that the pay
of the smiths was four pence per day,
and that horse shoes were charged at
ten shillings per hundred and nails
twenty pence a thousand. Iron was
sold at five pence per stone. Iron
was known at least 1881 years b. c.
The Lacedamonians coined it into
money, and in Homer's time it was
used in axes, plowshares, nails, etc.
AS to shoeing horses in the present
day, thorough knowledge of how to
perform the art presupposes an inti-
mate understanding of the whole pro-
cess. In my opinion there is no rule
that will apply to the shoeing of all
horses In no two horses are the feet
exactly alike, yet in their essential
functions all act and are governed by
the same law. The movements of the
horses foot and limbs require that the
bearing surface should come to the
ground in a given line at every step,
but that natural requirement is rarely
presumed, and, when it is so, it is
more by accident than by rule. There
is very taking phrase always used
by people who wish to be thought
wise about sEoeing, viz, that the shoe
is to be fitted to the foot. and not the
foot to the shoe. If there be any
truth in that saying, it does not lie so
near the surface as is generally sup
posed. In preparing the horses foot
to be shod as well as the shoe, the re-
quirement in the skill of the operator
above all is, that he should know the
right form and required bearing surface
of that particular foot, and set the
shoe with the the proper bearing, on
the wall of the foot, without burning
the foot. There is a science in the
punching of shoe, in the forming of
shoe, in the pairing of foot, in the
driving of nails, in the c.inching of a
nail and many other points in making
and driving a shoe, each of which
would take column to fully explain.

THE FIFTEEN GAME.
AN EXPLANATION OF THE INTRICACIES
OF THE GEM PUZZLE.

Various accounts have been given of
the invention of the Fifteen Game"
otherwise known as the Gem Puzzle, :"
which is just now having run second
only to that of "Pinafore." According
to one story it is the invention of a
deaf mute in Hartford, who made it
for the entertainment of the inmates of
the asylum where he lived, without
thought of the insane asylum for which
it seems likely to make so many pa
tients. Another story ascribes the
thing to the postmaster at Canastota,
n. Y, who gave the game to lady in
Syracuse, who sent it to a lady at
Watch Hill, who took it home to Hart
ford, where Boston man saw it, and
so on. But whoever invented it, it is
the manufacturers who are reaping
the profit. 1t is not patented, but the
manufacture appears to have been con-
fined so far to two New England firms,
who are said to have been turning out
the games at the rate of six to eight
thousand a day and still hardly have
supplied the demand The puzzle is to
be seen everywhere From the judge
on the bench to the bootblack on the
sidewalk, everybody is puzzling over
it. The scientific people are discussing
it, and for the last few days the news
papers have been full of it. The appa-
ratus consists of sixteen little squares
of wood, numbered consecutively from
one to sixteen, and fitting exactly in a
shallow square box. In use, the square
numbered 16 is removed, and there is
thus one blank space left, which allows
the blocks to slide, one square at a
time, and they are thus to be arranged
without removing them from the box.
The fifteen squares being mixed and
placed indiscriminately in the box, the
problem is to arrange them in regular
arithmetical series, as in the following
diagram

JUDGE JUNKIN, of Perry county, at
recent term of the county court at New
Bloomfield, cautioned innkeepers about
the peril of selling liquor by the bottle
over their bars. He admonishes land
lords that they have no right to sell
liouor to a sober man who would trans
fer it to one in the habit of becoming
intoxicated, or To minors, and he was
bound, as much as druggist who dis
pensed poison at the call of a customer,
to know who was to use the liquor.
The purchase of quart Of whiskey ooy
sober man was itself suspicious CIR
cum and raised the fair inference
that it was being bought for some Que
to whom the landlord would not sell
it. And be added, proof of its transfer
to and use by drunkards and minors
was sufficient cause for revoking the
innkeeper's license.

And no art can get that Is into its
right place. The more you struggle
with it the worse it gets, and the labor
iously arranged rows become all mixed
up again. 1t is at this point that grim
despair settles down upon all but the
most courageous. Sometimes the 13,
Ii, Is come in their right order, while
two other numbers are misplaced, but
we believe that every combination can
be reduced ultimately to that given
above, so that the real problem is to
get the l5 after the IA An enterpris-
ing Yankee lately advertised to send
the solution of this problem for two
stamps, and to the many who applied
he sent back the answer: "Take up
No ID carefully between the thumb
and forefnger and place him where he
belongs" This is on the Gordian prin-
ciple of AleAander's solution of the
Gordian knot, it is heroic, but not sat-
isfactory.
THE SOLUTION.
1t is necessary, however to resort to
such heroic measures. The 13, IS, IA
combination is soluble, but only by
changing the direction Of the columns.
This is the secret of the problem. The
player has started with the purpose of
arranging the numbers in horizontal
rows, and he has failed. He has now
to go on from this halting place and ar
range them in reatical columns. This
is the idea intended to be conveyed by
those who have spoken of turning the
board" phrase apparently borrowed
from chess, but only confusing in eff
teen" 1t is necessary to give all of the
twenty-nine moves required for the
solution of the problem, but the follow
ing will enable every one to work it
out.
