Breaking Colts.

Colts should be broken to harness at
3 years old, and used in light work for 9
years, when they will become matured
and fit for full work. If they are used
forhard service before their joints become
settled, or surrounded by full grown
texture of muscle and sinews to support
them they are liable to become strained,
causing spavins, or bony engagements,
that will destroy their future usefulness.
Any imbecile can break down the colt
but it requires good sense to build them
up after they have been crippled by igno-
rant taskmasters. 1t is not worth while
to risk the experiment of converting
sound colts into invalids when they will
live longer and perform more service if
suffered to ripen into the full. matured
horse before being put to hard work. -

ca A Connecticut farmer says that the
butt ends of potatoes and the kernels of
corn from the butt ends of the ears, each
produced crops that were materially bet
ter than where the opposite course was
pursued In the case of potatoes the
stalks from the butt end were much larg-
er and more forward at the first hoeing.
The increase in corn was some twenty
per cent. in favor of the butt end ker-
nels.

A DEsPERADO's ESCAPE.

A communication from Santa Fe, New
Mexico, says: Full particulars Of the
escape of William Boney, alias Chilly
the KID" from the jail Of Lincoln county
have reached here. The Kid was in
charge Of Bob Alminger and J. w. Bell
deputy shetitfs, cool and brave men. 1t
seems, however, that by docile behavior
the prisoner put them off their guard.
On the evening Of the day in question
Alinger had gone to supper, leaving Bell
to watch the prisoner. Bell was sitting
on the floor talking, when the Kid, who
was heavily shackled and handcuffed,
approached him pleasantly and suddenly
jumped at him with the swiftness Of a
wildcat, hitting him on the head aud
fracturlng his skull. He then snatched
Bells pistol and shot him in the breast.
Bell ran down the steps and foil at the
foot a corpse. The Kid kicked open the
door, procured Ratchet and knocked
off his shackles. He also broke open the
door of the armory and took possession
ofseveral gunsand pistols. Bob Alinger,
hearing the shot, left his supper and ran
toward the jail When entering small
gate leading through the Jail fence, the
Kid, who was upstairs, shot him with
a gun loaded with buckshot, killing him
instantly. The town of Lincoln seemed
terror-stricken, and nobody thought of
opposing the Kid. He stole horse and
rode of, armed with four revolvers and
Winchester rife. He has expressed q
determination to kill Governor Lew
Wallace, who failed to pardon him, and
who, by curious coincidence, signed
the Kids death warrant at Santa Fe on
the same day that he escaped at Lincoln.

NO TIME FOR HATING.
A. ]. II. DuGANNE.

Begone with feud away with strife;
Onr human hearts unmating!
Let us DC friends again This life
Is all too short for hating
SO dull the day, SO dim the way,
So rough the road we're faring-
Far better veal with faithful friend,
Then stalk alone uncaring
The barren fig, the withered vine,
Are types Of selfish living;
But souls that give, like thine and mine,
Renew their life by giving.
While cypress waves Der early graves,
On all the way we'rc going,
Far better plant, where seed is scant,
Than tread on fruit that's growing.
Away with scorni since die we must
And rest on one low pillow;
There are no rivals in the dust
No foes beneath tho willow.
So dry the bowers, SO few the flowers,
Our earthly way discloses,
Far better stoop when daisies droop
Than tramp DER broken roses
OF what are all the joys we hold
Compared to joys above us;
And what are rank, and dover and gold,
Compared to hearts that love MS
So feet our years, so full of tears,
So closely death is waiting;
God gives us space for loving grace.
But leaves no time for hating,

IS A THOROUGH REMEDY
HER TERRIBLE ADVENTURE.
Virginia lNev.l Chronicle

There were q party of four couples
coming over on the Sarcelito boat, last
Sunday, and the prettiest girl of the
gushers looked up at Mount Tamalpais
and said

after tho loss of much valuable time
that we succeeded in recovering it. Ev-

Of the proper direction for our mine.
Above our heads the logs lay thick
and solid, and, indeed, we could dis

logs. loosened the dirt, pushed in be-
hind me and the sergeant packed it
away wherever he could find space. We
were agreeably surprised at the rapidity
of our progress. In abont two hours, as
we calculated, we had mined a hole,
quite outside of the bomb-proof, large
enough to admit of our passage. We
now worked towards the surface, and
presently we guessed, by the looseness
of the material, that we were passing
through the mass that had been elected
from the mine, covering the bomb proof
under six or eight feet of clay and sand.
Our progress was rapid, and soon, with
grateful hearts, we congratulated each
other on the prospect of ultimate de-
liverance. At thislas stage i'll our pro.

had almost reached the goal; quarter
