A writer in The Washington Post. dis
cussing the characteristics of former mem
bers-of congress who were noted for their ec-
centricities, describes a transformation in one
of these worthless, brought about by the in
fiuence upon him of the estimable wife of a
~well-known member OF congress from Ohio.
The s.ory L aho-t Gaha h brass
buttoned, blue-coated ~woman-hater, who
served in congress for two terms. He only
distinguished himself in congress by voting
'Non so loud hat he could be heard in Alex
andria when a proposition was up looking to
woman suffrage, Bouck is rich, and now
has only one ambition, and that is to be gov
ernor OF Wisconsin.
Bouck underwent a queer transformation
when he came to Washington to serve in con-
gress. He had never a white shirt or a waist
coat before coming here. His shirt was a
black flannel, with a heavy gold chain
twisted down its front; his coat was a blue
frock, adorned with huge brass buttons. His
face was heavy and swarthy, his nose turned
up, a decided pug, while his eyes were black
and vioiously crossed. Over a low forehead
a shock OF uncombed hair. This eccentric
lawyer, a man Of ability, a sworn bachelor,
and a bowling hater of women, came to the
Ebbitt house and was seated at the table
where sat Congressman McKinl ley and his
wife. Her bright, sunny, ladylike ways sub
dued at once the man who had never men
toned for fifty years e woman's name with
out an oath. Gradually Bouck became trans-
formed. He bought a white shirt and a
waistcoat, he had his hair cut and combed,
and flnally he added the crowninE stroke by
having his boot blacked. He was, while
here, the chivalrous and devoted slave of the
charming Mrs. Mckinley, who used to be
called by Der lady friends "the bear-tamer.n

As DR.. Skeechley walked along by the
~corrals, of which there are about a bakers
dozen, the ostriches, with few exceptions,
followed along with an evident desire to get
a kick at him. A Cinnamon carrying Z scythe
along by one OF the c~orTais, was at once an
object Of provocation TO the ostrichss in tina

positively his decided belief that horses have
scarlet fever. and that they give it to men
and receive it from them He quotes DR..
Robertson's statement that he had observed
when a severe visit of scarlet fever and
measles occurred among human beings in
any locality, that cases of the same trouble
would show themselves among the horses OF
the vicinity, and that more than the average
number Of horses suffering from catarrhal
affections would exhibit symptoms of scarla-

recommends that horses and stables be put
under good sanitary control as well as poor
people and tenement houses-

Biting Horses.

Horses have been successfully cured
of this vice by putting a piece of hard
wood an inch and half square in the
animals mouth, about the same length
as an ordinary snaff1e bit. 1t may be
fastened by thong of leather passed
through two holes in the ends of the
wood, and secured to the bride. 1t
must be used in addition to the bit, but
in no way to impede the working of the
bit. Rarey adopted this plan with the
zebra in the Zoo, which was a terrible
brute at biting. Mr.. Rarey succeeded,
however, in tanning and training him to
harness, and drove him through the
streets of London. Animals with this
vice should BIZ treated kindly in the
stable, and not abused with pitchfork
handles, whips, etc. An apple, a crust
of bread, q piece Of beef, ETC., and a
kind pat, but firm, watchful hand and
eye, with the use of the above wooden
bit, will cure the most inveterate bitter.
The fact that he cannot shut his mouth
or grip anything soon dawns upon him,
and then he is conquered.-1oronto

Salvini's 8 Lament.

A short time ago I heard Salvini la
menting his miserable life-haf the
time on the verge of desperation. In a
foreign country, unable to understand
our language, or our manners (''even
in crowds, I'm still alone'') J, never hear
ing his own beautiful language, is it any
wonder that he chafes and frets to get
back to fair Italy? He has large for
tune, one of the finest castles in the
country, and the graves of two young
wives. This, he says, is to be his last
season. He will go back to Italy and
his princely home, and no doubt he
thinks he will settle down to the repose
and enjoyment of private life. Does the
reader who knows the walks and ways
of actors believe that we have seen the
last of Salvini? By no means dare we.
We do not remember how many times
grand olo Forrest retired from the
stage? And glorious Charlotte Cush-
man, how many times did she retire to
private life? We all remember how
Patti, two or three years ago, bought
"Craig-y-nos' Castle, in Wales, one of
themost magnificent places in the world.
She, too, had retired. But it was not
long before her nightingale castle be-
came prison-house to her, her money
ran out, and here she is in the United
States to-day-seats, 81 each.-Phild-
