THE HORSE.

An agricultural exchange disposes of
! the snbject Of fast walking horses in this
| wise "A reliable fast walker must be
born so, and the best, quickest and cheap.
est way to get at this is to breed him. For
this purpose select the fastest walking stall
lion TO be found and breed him to the fast
est walking mare obtainable. This theory
is about as true as the schoolboy's reply
when asked to describe crab: "a she'll
fish that walks backward" The fact is
fast walking is not natural, bat an ae-
quired gait, and very difficult to acquire IN
the majority OF cases. Ii horses were not
taught to walk fast there would be no fast
horses to breed from. Some horses mani
fest greater aptness for acquiring certain
gaits than others, and this sptness is OBJ
servable in particular families, but it must
be brought out by education, otherwise it
will remain dormant. The natural walk
of the horse is slow. The gait described in
a fast walking horse ia between an amble
and an ordinary walk, snd must be taught
TO be acquired This theory Of an agri-
cultural contemporary runs the sciences of
breeding into the ground.
ATexas exchange describes an 000-acre
ranch in that State as entirely devoted TO
the breeding of ponies. The stock eonsIsta
of seven Shetland stations and forty five
Shetland mares, all pare bred, and 800
small spotted mares. The lilhputians range
over the prairies like sheep, and are aa gen.
tie as possible Tne expenses foot up very
little more than sheep farm the same
size, and the profits are more than twice as
much.
An Eastern exchange says that Iroquois
is in splendid shape, and Tom Cannon is
moving him along steadily but slowly. His
legs look all right, but whether they will
stand the galloping necessary to fit him for
his engagements ia as yet question.
Sachem has spread and thickened. and
great things are expected of him by the
Dauebury people.
The Board OF Trustees of the Walla Walla
Agricultural Society are making efforts to
purchase the Driving Park at that place.
The price Is SO. coo, TO be taken in fifty
shares of 800 each. Subscriptions are be-
ing made freely, and the move will no
/ doubt be successful.
The trotting horse Count Monte, owned
! by G. Rhodes, of Milton, N. Y, while in a
match race at Newburg. ON the 10Th ulti-
mo, ruptured blood vessel. He was with

A THAwED Owl on A SPREE.-A WELL
known place of physical refreshment in
Concord, n. H., is presided over by John
Adams, a man of such tender sensibilties
that when, the other night, just as he was
shutting up shop, he discovered half
frozen owl on the doorstep, he took the
bird in and made it comfortable. When he
retired for the night he left the owl
perched upon the safe, to which one Of its
legs was fastened by a stout cord, and
blinking with extreme gratitude aud devo-
ton. As soon as he had gone the owl bit
the cord in two, devoured every fragment
of food on the we'll stocked lunch counter,
sampled every kind of liquor in the saloon,
broke all the bottles and decanters within
reach, and IN the morning when the doors
were opened was standing solemnly behind
the bar ready for business. Worcester

As the shouts from our foes had long since
died away, we moderated our pace and pro.

we could attribute to but one cause

oppressive stiffness of the forest we heard
orders given in language that sounded as

We now cautiously approached the camp
of the strangers, and when the dog began
barking Whipley cried out in loud voice,

The dogs were beaten back and we heard
voice calling Us "to come into camp.
This we were not slow in doing, and we
found the strangers to be a strong party o.
hunters returning TO Cape Town after q
months shooting. They were thoroughly
equipped with arms and supplies, and had
a pair OF oxen to haul the cart containing

Contempt of Court.

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.---Ex-Senator George
E. Spencer, formerly from Alabama, now
mining in Nevada, passed through this
city to day en- route to Washington in
charge of United States marshal. The
arrest of the ex-senator is for contempt of
court, in failing to respond TO a subpoena
to appear at the star route trial. Spencer
was originally engaged in star route in
vestigatIon when James was postmaster
general, but when the case was called for
trial he went to Europe to avoid testify
ing. In an interview to-day when asked
why he had failed to testify, Spencer said,
he was the first man to sug.
gest the star route investigation,
and when they we're begun
he gave the postmaster general and gov
eminent the benefit of what he knew about
them. He claims he did this without re-
compense, and claims further that he had
an understanding with President Garfield
and Postmaster General James that he
should not be known in the matter or be
made witness for the prosecution when
he got his evidence in shape. He declares
ne went to his home in Nevada expecting
that was the end to the matter.
Under what circumstances were you
