Nothing Like Ducks.

According to correspondent OF
the St. Louis Republication the
testimony of one who had tried it
s'there is nothing like ducks" for
getting rid of flies. His informant
said:
"Out to the Lindell arstables we
keep ducks. The flies worry the
horses mighty bad at this time OF
the year; but a car horse can rest
easy at the Lindell stables. Didn't
you ever see a duck snap fyt
Whenever the flies get thick on a
horse, the ducks gather round and
snap every fly that comes in reach.
If horse lies down the ducks just
crawl all over him. The hores soon
find out who their friends are. and
they like to have the ducks come. In
fact, if the flies get bad, the horses
will lie down to give the ducks a
chance. They are so industrious
that they keep the flies pretty well
thinned out. / tell you there's
nothing like ducks for fiies.'

How Jaw Gould Does 1t.

o. How Jay Gould Does H.
Quiet as the grave in all his move
ments and as implacable as fate in
his purposes, Jay Gould is justly
feared on Wall street. His friend.
ships are as lasting only as his
purposes can be served, but his hate
is bitter as an avenging Nemesis
In this latter respect he is much
like Governor Cornell, with just
enough Indian in him to neither for
give or forget an injury. Many
years ago, Cornell, when only a
messenger Lad in the Western Union
building, was dismissed from EN-
ployment by his superior. The of
fence ranked within his breast. He
nursed his wrath for long years. and
few months ago, seeing a favorable
opportunity to get even with the au-
thor of his Juvenile trouble, he caus.
ed an old and worthy servant OF the
Western Union Telegraph Company
or at least one Of its appendages
to be dismissed. The old mar
has been walking about since, try
ing to make up the loss of his for
mer salary by Wall street specula
lations.
Many a man, both in exalted and
subordinate positions, has had cause
to feel the force of Jay Gould's an
ger, and presidents and directors OF
railways have been made or dis
placed at his command. The latest
gossip touching Gould shows the
means he will resort to when neces-
sary to defeat deception. Not long
ago from some unaccountable
source the plans of Goulds cam
paign leaked out. Schemes matur-
ed in secret conclave over night
which were to be precipitated upon
inspecting spectators the follow
ing day became known, and the
bomb charge being thus drawn, the
shell failed to explode. Mr.. Gould
was sorely puzzled to know who was
thus quietly checkmating his every
move on financial board, and it was
with deep chagrin that he discover
ed that Mr.. Keene was enabled
through treachery in the Gould
camp, to thus circumvent all the
plans of the great King of Wall
street. How to stop this puzzled
Gould. He employed an amateur
detective, giving him instructions
to shadow every person in his EN-
ploy. The detective soon discover
ed that one of Gould's clerks, who
occupied a confidential position,
was acting in suspicious manner,
and his every movement was care
fully watched, and it was soon learn
ed that one of Gould's favorite
clerks was daily in the habit OF Wis
iting Keene's brokers. He was
tracked by the detective, who be-
came a perfect sleuth hound, follow
lowing him to Philadelphia, Wash.
ington, Baltimore, and elsewhere,
making notes of all the persons he
visited, the places he frequented
and the habits he indulged in.
When he visited theatre, concert
hall or other place Of amusement,
the faithful detective was close be-
hind him, and when he slept or ate
his fatal shadow never left him.
When the faithless clerk returned
to his office duties in Gould's en-
ploy. after the detective had fur
nished his report and received his
pay, he was suddenly bereft of his
position, and the confidential clerk
no longer has access to Jay Gould s
slips or other evidences of pureha-
ses and sales.

One Advantage of Tobacco Smok
inc

/ have often wondered, says a
sprightly woman, how any of my
sisterhood who has ever kissed a
clean man can ever go through the
pretense of kissing tobacco chew
er. Did you ever see one suffer the
penalty? This is how she does IT.
There is preliminary shudder,
and then she shuts her teeth hard,
holds her breath, and makes little
pigeon dip at the foul lips of the
grinning beast, and then, pale with
horror, flies to the kitchen, where, II
YOU follow her, you will find her DIS
injecting with soap and water
MANY Of the blessed little hypo-
critics pretend they like the smell OF
cigar, but even hypocrisy is power
less to force from woman the con-
fession of foundness for hanging,
like the bee on a flower, to a tobac-
co worms lips.

TIE great men Of antiquity were
more distinguished by character
than by actions-more in peace
than in war. We think more OF
Cammillus' plow than of his battles,
and of Cato's fraternal love than of
his resistance in the field. Epami-
nondas is remembered for his hos
pitality and affections; Brutus for
his love to Portia; Alexander for
his affection toward his friends:
and Gustavus Adolphus for his
piety.

Who Owns the Fastest Trotter.

4 reporter has interviewed Mr..
Bonner concerning fast horses, and
that gentleman is far from willing
to admit that the world contains a
fleeter trotter than one or two to be
found in his stable. There is un-
doubtedly much rivalry between
Mr. Vanderbilt and the proprietor
of the Ledger as to who shall have
the fastest roadster, and had MIR.
Vanderbilt's offer of $4,000 secur-
ed st. Julien, that gentleman would
doubtless feel that he is the owner
of a pair which no one would be
able to pass on the road. And since
it Is generally believed that Maud
S. can equal if not improve the time
made by St. Julien at Hartford, he
no doubt considers himself the own
er of the fastest roadster in the
worl.. Mr.. Bonner believes that
the best time on record will yet be
brought down several seconds, and
is confident that Rarus can trot in
2:lO. and that Edwin Forrest, with
a record of 2:154 to wagon, is the
greatest wagon horse in the world.
Since Lady Suffolk trotted a mile in
2:263, and Flora Temple in 2:l9f,
astonishing reductions in time have
been made, the official record of
horses that have gone below the
time which made Dexter famous be-
ING as follows:
2:114, st. Julien.
2:1l4, Maud ).
2:l34, Rarus.
2:l4. Goldsmith Maid.
2:143, Hopeful.
2:15, Lulu.
2:l54, Smuggler.
2:I64, Lucille Golddust. 4o
3: :165, American Girl and Derby.
2:l6a, Occldent.
PIT, Gloster. oaa
2:174, Dexter.
Mr.. Bonner attributes the inn
provement chiefly to toe-weights,
smoother tracks and lighter weights,
and confesses that without his toe
weights Edwin Forrest would not
be worth $500, and Maud S. would
be no better. He adheres to his
purpose to give public exhibition
of his best horses, although his re-
fusal to permit them to trot for mon
ev will prevent them from obtain
inglar ficial,record. Whether Rarus,
Maud S. or st. Julien is the best
horse is question which admits OF
doubt, and the owners of the first
two are not likely to abandon their
claims to the distinction OF owning
the fastest trotter without strug-
gle.
