Experiments in regard to the effect
upon horses Of diet of "pig nuts :"
have recently been made in Germany.
For some time it had been noticed that
horses were fond of these nuts, and
would eagerly drink water in which
some of them had been placed. Horses
cared for in this way shed their long
winter hair very early in the spring, and
come out in very fine and glossy sum-
mer coats. Two of the beasts upon
which DIR. Freitog, of Halle, expert
mented in this way were at first very
shabby-looking creatures, but in few
weeks their bodies rounded out, and
they gained from eleven to fourteen
kilogrammes in weight in eighteen days.
In the meantime they worked more will
ingly and with greater effect than they
had ever done before, and did not so
easily break into a perspiration. One
little, badly groomed and half-starved
pony which was submitted to this treat
ment-the nuts being mixed with other
food-gained thirty-three kilogrammes
in twenty, eight days, and though at first
he was lazy and sleepy, in a short time
became sleek and spirited.

Oelmonico's Advice to n Young Man Abou1
to Open n Restaurant.

A young man who had been assistant cook
In Chicago Hotel, having saved little
money, concluded he would go to New York
and try his fortune. He reasoned with him
self that Delmonico would not live always,
and fanced that he might one day become
the future Delmonico Of New York. On
reaching the city he sent his letter of intro
duction to the famous restaurant keeper
and solicited advice. DelmOnico listened
at'entlvely TO the young mans inquiries, and
finally told him: SECT, first, good location,
then get the best cook you can hire. see that
your walters are attentive and polite, and
buy only the best in the market. And still all
OF this you can do and not give satisfac-
lion. BE your own superintendent: get the
best quality Of the new Gil AFTER OAK COOK.
ING RANGE, and if you don't succeed in your
undertaking, you will have the satisfacl ion Of
doing your best to merit it." (223)

LAST July Charles and Milton Coleman,
brothers and deputy sheritfs of Dunn county,
Wis, attempted to arrest Edward and Lon
Maxwell, alias Williams, for horse-stealing.
The Maxwell brothers resisted and shot both
the Colemans dead. Then the outlaws fled to
one of the most impenetrable forests of North
western Wisconsin. Large bodies Of citizens,
q company Of militia, Indian scouts and blood
hounds hunted for weeks for the desperadoes,
but without success and it was finally believed
they had escaped to another State. Recently
the brothers were discovered in Nebraska, and
Edward Maxwell was captured and taken back
to Durand, Wis. On the morning of the day
when his examination in court was to occur he
was taken away from the officers of the law by
the citizens, hundreds Of whom had come into
town from the surrounding country, and
hanged in the courthouse yard.

UPoN the adjournment of the court on the
sixth day of Guiteau's trial the Jail van started
as usual for the Jail, having one policeman,
Officer Edelin,, as guard, who sat on the seat
with the driver. Before reaching the capitol
the guard noticed young man on horseback
riding leisurely behind the van. Near the cor
ner of East Capitol and First streets the horse
man rode directly up to the rear of the van and
peered through the small grazing. Guiteau
was alone in the van, sitting on the right-hand
side. After evidently satisfying himself of the
exact location of the prisoner the horseman
wheeled suddenly to the left of the van
and fired directly through it. He then
spurred his horse and rode rapidly away.

A Question of Etiquette.

Among the humors chronicled of the
Yorktown celebration it was mentioned
that the President was intr oduced to the
governor of Virginia, instead of the lat
ter being presented to the President of
the United States. Referring to the
story the Washington Star says:
Ii SO, it was merely another render
ing OF the old question of etiquette be-
tween President George Washington
and Governor John Hancock, of Massa-
chusetts. When the former made his
first visit to Boston after he became
President, he accepted an invitation of
the governor to an informal dinner, but
expected call from that functionary as
soon as he arrived, instead of which he
eceived message from him pleading
that he was too much indisposed to do
80. Washington doubted the sincerity
of the apology, as he had been given
TO understand that the governor wished
to evade making the first call, holding
that as governor of State, and within
the bounds of that State, it was proper
point of etiquette that he should receive
the first visit even from the President
of the United States. Washington re,
sisted this pretension, SO excused him
self from the dinner and dined at his
lodgings. The next day the governors
friends advised him to wave the point
OF etiquette, so be sent his best respects
TO the President, informing him that il
at home and at leisure, he would do
himself the honor to visit him
in half an hour, intimating that he
would have done it sooner had his
health permitted, and that it was not
without hazard to his health that he did
it now.

All for Nothing.

Happy the man whose far remove
From business and the giddy throng
Fits him in the paternal groove
Unquestioning to glide along,
Apart from struggle and from strife,
. Content to live by labor's fruits,
And wander down the vale of life
In gingham shirt and cowhide boots.
He too is blessed who, from within
By strong and lasting impulse stirred,
Faces the turmoil and the din
Of rushing life whom hope deferred
But more incites who ever strives,
And wants, and works, and waits, until
The multitude of other lives
Pay glorious tribute to his will.
But he who, greedy of enown,
Is too tenacious of his ease,
Alas for him Nor busy town
Nor country with his mood agrees
Eager to reap, but 10th to SOW,
He longs monstrdri dig,to,
And looking on with envious eyes,
Lives restless and obscurelY dies.
