Shortly after O'Clock the pedestrians
retired to their te,.ts to prepare themselves
for their night appearance. As the little
troupe OF four staggered into their houses
it was too evident that the strain upon
them has been enormous.
There was but one thing to- cheer them,
in a few hours their struggle on the track
would be over. At O'Clock there were but
faint hopes of getting crowd to witness
the dying struggle of the four pedestrians
left of the nrne confident men who BEGAN
the long walk Monday morning. At o'clock
the men came on the track for the last time.
A considerable crowd had then g; tKered
in the garden and the band struck up a
lively air. Fitzgerald was dressed in a
new suit of white flannel tights. Noremac
was freshened up little in white racing
srit with blue silk cap and breech cloth.
Herby stuck to his purple colors, and
seemed better able to stand the fortune of
the last miles than the Others Hughes
trappings could light up the deathly pallor
of ais face and almost idiotic stare of his
sunken eyes. Once as he was passing the
scorers stand he looked at the clock APP
pealing, as if mutely begging it to move
faster 10 the end. Some one
shouted ''take him OF the track 4 woman
in one Of the boxes said, disapprovingly.
''why. the idea: let him hang on" The
men ran little together, with the excep-
ton Of Hughes. whose legs sank under
him when he attempted to quicken his
pace. At 10 O'Clock the race was thing
OF the past, the score being as follows:
Fitzgerald ST. miles 2. laps; Noremac

DESTRUCTIVE GEESE.

Forty Riflemen Employed by a Cali
fornia Farmer to De tend His Wheat
Fields.
San Francisco Call.
Various methods have been devised
of exterminating wild geese without
avail, until geese-herding has be-
come profession as distinct as
herding or trapping. In the early
winter the geese appear in the grain
counties in myriads, travelling about in
vast fiocks. Their hunger is Unsuitable
and the new wheat is rapidly destroyed.
DR.. 81. j. Glenn, whose ranch in Colusa
county covers most of the arabic land
in that county. numbering some 1000
acres, or nearly twelve square miles,
expends about SIC, 600 a year in heard
ing his geese. BE recently purchased
in this city for the present season be-
tween $4,000 and $1,000 worth of
cartridges, about $500 in number. of
44-calibre. He has constantly in his
employ, while his wheat is growing,
about forty men, all of them mounted
and nearly all armed with Henry rifles
and field glasses, who patrol his
property during the day and ON all
moonlight nights.
These men are regularly organized
into a patrol guard. They discover
with their glasses the focks of geese,
which at distance of from 800 to 400
yards look like white blanket spread
over the green wheat, and they there
upon plant bullet right in the middle
of the flock. This unexpected vista
ton sets the flock on the wing, and the
geese herder follows them up, keeps
planting bullets among them until they
rise to great height, and, disguised,
leave the vicinity. Few geese are
killed, the object being to keep them on
the wing and consequently off the
wheat fields. Those that are killed are
carried off and shorn of their feathers,
but the revenue from them amounts to
little. On DR.. Glenn's ranch about
5000 cartridges are used in day,
which represents about 10000 geese
daily put to fight.
Oftentilnes thick fog blows in, and
this appears to be favorite time for
the geese, and they devour the wheat
with great energy. The herders, then,
fearful of shooting each other, are
almost baffled, but when the fog rises
the Hocks are put to fight and for hours
thereafter the air is filled with feathers
and geese, and Glenn's ranch resounds
with the clatter of rifles and the
frightened cries of the prosecuted
fowls. To pay his men, buy ammu-
milton and maintain horses costs DIR.
Glenn some $4,000 per annum, but it
saves his wheat, which yields 100000,
as without the geese herders half
would he destroyed. The herders be-
come very expert in their business,
and are generally good shots and capital
hOrsemen.

The Man Who Gives Advice.

The man who gives advice Is the
most numerous mon in this star
spanglpd and star-route country. He
is to be found in the brown-stOne pa.-
aces of the rich and in the log cabin
home of the poor. Silver and gold he
may be destitute of. but in the matter
of advice he is bloated capitalist; q
cornucopia replete with sage counsel !;
an exhorter dropsical with wise sug-
gestions; a Magnus-Apollo plethoric
with oracular admonitions.
In the bestowal of advice he is the
most generous of men, is pr0digal to q
fault, and will deal his advice out in
large chunks ungrudgingly to those
who ask for it, and he is equally liberal
to those who do not ask for it, and do
not want it. He will force it on those
who have advice of their own to spare,
and who really do not need any Of his.
He sometimes sends whole cords of it
by mail to those Of his friends whom
he cannot reach otherwise. The more
he gives away the more he seems to
have hand. His apparently waste
full prodigality only seems to increase
his stock. He keeps on hand ga large

Another Story OF Clusters Death.

h0cneeer democrat.
The case of Sebastian Beck, whose
career among the Sioux Indians was
noted in this journal, has been fully
Investigated at the county poor Office by
Overseer McGonegal. During the
recounting of his wanderings, the old
man gave a reporter from this journal
a clearer insight into the battle of the
'Little Big Horn" than he before had.
He said that upon the night of the
charge Sitting Bull expected Custer and
had massed all his forces and had a
band of 5000 warriors, of which he
was one. The plan of their battle was
as follows: The Indians fenced in a
large corral with saplings, and within
built fires. Upon the saplings they
hung their blankets, and within they
fixed billets of wood to represent them
selves as seated about the fires. They
then went into the mountains surround
ing the spot and waited until Custer
and his company should be attracted
TO the trap they had devised. They
were successful for the general saw the
light, accommodated and thought his
chance had come. He opened fire up
on the Indians. This was the signal.
With one fell swoop 5000 painted dew
lis rushed down upon him from the
mountain sides. In moment the lit.
tie band of 800 men were surrounded
and the unequal battle commenced.
Beck said that Custer showed no fear,
but rode into the fight with eyes and
sabre flashing and never raised it but
that he left upon some redskins face
his bloody and ragged-edged trade
mark. But at last he too fell pierced
by seven shots. His last words were:
81 am alone; have done my best; the
boys are all gone and 1 will go with
them"

Stories of Birds and Beasts.

A Columbus, Georgia, chicken thief
had two trained dogs that entered a
poultry-house, caught the fowls by the
neck, killed them carefully, and
brought them singly to their master.
An Augusta, Georgia, dog, after
bowling with pain more than a week,
made his master understand what was
the matter, and a whole row of de-
cayed teeth were extracted from the
dogs mouth. The animal endured the
operation with entire serenity.
A sparrow fell to the ground from
the ivy that clings to the walls Of
Christ church, New Brunswick, New
Jersey, and was found to be sick and
crippled. Its little companions swarmed
about it, expressing intense anxiety,
and tried to lift the bird by catching
its wings in their beaks, but failed.
Presently one of the birds brought a
twig about four inches long, and the
sick bind caught it in the middle. The
others caught the ends, and, flying
away, carried the invalid triumphantly
back to the ivy.
The force of habit is illustrated in
the following little incident. A gentle
man who used to be connected with
the Louisville Courier Journal came to
western Texas last year, and went into
the sheep business. Last week he was
arrested for shearing sheep that did
not belong to him. He could not
shake off his old habit of clipping with
out giving credit. AS soon as he got a
pair of shears in his hands he had to
steal something.

Salt for the Throat.


In these days when diseases of the
throat are so universally prevalent,
and in so many cases fatal, we feel it
our duty to say word in behalf of a
most effectual, if not positive, cure for
sore throat. For many years past,
indeed. we may say during the whole
of life of more than forty years. we
have been subject to a dry hacking
cough, which is not only distressing to
ourself, but to our friends and those
with whom we are brought into bust
ness contact. Last fall we were in
duced to try what virtue there was in
common salt. We commenced by
using it three times day, morning,
noon and night. We dissolved large
tablespoonful of pure table salt in
about half a small tumblerful of water.
With this we gargled the throat most
thoroughly just before meal time.
The result has been that during the
entire winter we were not only free
from coughs and colds, but the dry
hacking cough had entirely disap
peared. We attribute these satisfac.
tory results solely to the use of salt
gargle, and most cordially recommend
a trial of it to those who are subject to
diseases of the throat. Many persons
who have never tried the salt gargle
have the impression that it is unpleas-
ant, but after few days use No person
who loves a nice clean mouth, and a
firstrate sharpener Of the appetite, will
abandon it.

Heating by Sunshine.

Professor E. S. Morse, of the Essex
institute, has devised an ingenious ar
rangement for utilizing the heat in the
suns rays in warming our houses. His
invention consists of a surface OF black
ened slate under, glass fixed to the sun
ny side or sides of house, with vents
in the walls SO arranged that the cold
air OF room is let out at the bottom
of the slate, and forced in again at the
top by the ascending heated column be-
tween the slate and the glass. The
outdoor air can be admitted, also. if
desirable. The thing is so simple and
apparently self-evident that one only
wonders that it has not always been in
use. Its entire practicalness is demon
strated In the heating of the professors
study in his college at Salem. The
value of the improvement for daily
warming buildings like churches and
school-houses, which, when allowed to
get cold between using, consume i'm
menSe quantities of heat before they
are fairly warmed again, is evident.
OF course, some other mears of heat
ing must be available when the sun
does not shine. But in the colder re.
gions, say in the far northwest, the
sun shines a greater part of the time
and hence the saving of artificial heat
would be very large if the sun heat
could be turned on" for eight or ten
hours out of the twensy-four.

self that he is passing it of for new,
while his victims cannot growl as the
thing is free. There are few subjects
on which he cannot offer advice of

He is always ''long" on advice, and

phrases as: "If may be allowed to

is no matter too ponderous for him to
offer advice on. He will tell you how
to cure a cold or run a saw-mill; how
to pare a corn or plant onions; and
how to clean spotted gloves or harmo-
nize the party. Very often when he
has a job lot Of really good advice on
hand, he will give it away. utterly OBJ
livieus of the fact that he needs it
himself.
One of the finest opportunities the
man who gives advice ever has, is when
a milk-man's horse balks on the street
His advice in such cases is abundant
in quantity and variety. He will stand
on the sidewalk with his hands in his
pockets, and suggest putting sand in
the horses ears. tying knot in his
tail, backing him round the block,
reading one of Oscar Wilde's poems to
him, and will continue to give such
inclement advice until the milk-man
becomes exasperated and swaps some
advice with him, advising him to 60
home and attend to his own - bust
ness. That is class of advice that
he cannot take, for the reason that men
of his stamp seldom have got any
business.
The man who gives advice, unless he
gives it by request, is a nuisance and
should be suppressed by law.

have been many worse years. Even

eral. In 1851, May was SO cold that it
was called 'the blighted May" in imita-
ton of a previous May that some people
recollected. On the 18th of June, 1857,
there was a brisk snow storm in this
part of the country. May, 1853, was
colder than this one. There was a
heavy frost on the night of the Doth.
We believe it was the same year that
frost killed the already headed out

that cold, backward springs make the
