He was up on Weathcr.

Detroit Free presL
On q Woodward avenue car yesterday
one OF our solid citizens, whose weather
predictions have never been disputed since
he was rated worth $4,000, remarked to
an acquaintance that this was unusual
weather for the last OF December. He had
hardly spoken when an old man with a
bundle under his arm hoped up and re.
piled: at is, Ell? III just betyou IN even
dollar that you are mistaken ~ Isn't this
unusual weather 2" mo, sir! I'll bet you
two to one we had Just such q December
week three, five and eight years ago. Put
up your cash." "0h, / don't bet on the
weather; still, l think such soft weather at
this time OF year is singular" "Bet you
three to one it isn't singular!" cried
the old man. II told you l wouldn't
bet" "Then don't be deceiving peo-
pie with your weather talk. Bet you
four 10 one you can't tell what the weather
was in September" The solid citizen was
blufted into silence for a moment, and
then he remarked: Looks as II we might
have SNOW" "Bet you five to one we don't
see a flake this week." piped the old man,
show can you expect snow when the air
isn't cold enough to CONCEAL this m%oisture?"
"rhen It may rain" mo, it won't! Bet
you six to one you never saw rain with the
wind where It lei" swell, the barometer
indicates a storm Of some sort" shouted
the solid man. "l'll take you on that, too;
and bet you seven to one that it Doesn't"
The prophet seemed about TO haul out a
dollar, but he changed his mind and fell
back in his seat and growled out: "Maybe
my barometer doesn't stand at ffty.four
degrees above" mo, sir! No, sir! Ill bet
you eight to one that you are at least three
degrees out Of the way! Come, now!" But
the solid man came not.

Breeders Gazette.
A not uncommon error into which many
shepherds are led, is the effort to econo-
mize in the item Of cured feed during the
later fall season. Tie present unusually
favorable weather offers more than IN
average temptation to confine the flock to
pasture grazing to the exclusion Of the
grain allowance, that, under less favorable
conditions would be recognized as indis-
pensable. The fact that sheep will get
along on grass, so long as it is not covered
with snow or all the nutriment frozen out
OF It, should not be taken as conclusive OF
the economy Of restricting them in such
diet. In those localities where the rigors
OF winter compel the owner to feed his
flock through several months, experience
has taught the observant that at no period
Of the feeding season does a liberal
ration count" for SO much as
during the time when 1t laps over the
fall pasturage OF such seasons as the
present. By such a policy immunity is
secured from Inconvenience, and some
times serious damages, that result by the
sudden change from pasture To. barnyard
feeding, that is made necessary by the
advent Of some unexpected storm. Few
perplexities overtake the shepherd more
annoying than the experiences with a flock
suddenly driven from the pasture while
unaccustomed to food and habits OF winter
life. The shyer members stand aloof, while
others gorge to their de,riment, thus add
ing the care for sick animals 10 a round Of
labor already replete with annoyances.
The shepherd first exposed TO such an ex-
perience is to be commiserated. The one
who is the second time a victim has learned
too little from experience to encourage a
hope for success in any undertaking to
which he may devote himself.

The Dogs of Jerusalem.

Letter to Philadelphia freS.
The dogs Of Jerusalem ought to have a
passing notice. They are the %scavengers
Of the city, aud a more forlorn looking set
Of creatures | never saw. They and the
jackals together make the night hideous
with their bowling, and they lie in the
streets all day in the sun fighting with the
neas with which they swarm. Nobody
owns them. Each set Of dogs has a por.
ton Of the city. which they regard as their
peculiar property, and woe TO the stray
pup that dares 10 invade their sacred do
main. Europeans sometimes take with
them a cherished poodle, or pct terrier, or
faithful hound; but il they venture beyond
the precincts OF their master or mistress
house, especially at night, their mutilated
corpse Is found In the street, the next morn
ing. l never saw a Jerusalem dog wag his
tall or even look toward q person who
might call to him. They will not move
out Of the way unless you make them, and
then they do II with u snarl. They seem
to have The feeling and certainly have the
appearance that might be described by the
| phrase: u care for nobody and nobody
cares for me-" If it were not for these
torlorn looking creatures Jerusalem would
be nothing better than a pest house.

Insured Letters In KussIa.

The Russian Postofice will insure the
safe delivery OF any letter for one.eighth Of
ono per cent OF the declared value OF the
inclosure. The safeguard is commonly en-
ployed by bankers and other persons desir-
ing to transmit bank-notes and negotiable
securities. Such perfect confidence is felt
in the safe delivery Of insured letters
that many persons have hitherto
taken the ininitesimal risk oil send.
ing a large sum while paying
insurance on only a small one, thus cheat
ing the Government to their own advan-
tage. The officials have seldom thought it
worth while to verify the contents Of in
sured letters, but their attention having
been attracted by the smallness Of the
values regularly declared by a certain firm
OF bankers in st. Petersburg, they opened
a letter insured for 1000 roubles and found
it to contain 10000 roubles. The law is
that in case OF a false valuation the entire
inclosure shall be forfeited, and in this in
stance their dishonest economy cost the
bankers about $4,000.

Rannatt az a Pilot.

James Gordon Bennett is probably the
most eccentric rich young man in the
world. When he gets a spasm he is
liable to do the most unsupported things.
He has yacht that cost him about a
quarter of million dollars. in which he
roams about the high seas. He was at
Villefranche, not long ago, and one day
he went aboard his yacht and sent the
captain and mate ashore, and attempted
to run the yacht himself The other
craft had to get up steam, and go away
out into the broad ocean to keep from
being run down. He run into French
gunboat, and frightened several sea cap
tains out of their boots, and then headed
his yacht for shore and landed her high
and dry on the beach. On being offer
ed assistance to get the boat off he de-
clined, saying he run her ashore for his
own amusement, and the bows could
launch her again. The impression is
abroad that Bennett was drunk, but he
was only allowing his budding genius a
little holiday. Bennett should be made
secretary of the American navy, if he
can scare anybody with his boat--Peck's
