Barnum's Woody Horse.

Washington Correspondence Cleveland Leader.
1t was next door to ShilliDgtOn's
book store that Barnum exhibited his
noted woody horse many years ago.
On my referring to Benton's action in
connection with it the old bookseller
said, with a laugh Yes, / remember
it as though it were yesterday. Bar
mum, you know, was here in Washing
ton some time before the event. and
was looking with friend at a little
oil horse which was going alon! the
avenue He said: Il will bet YOU
$500 that can take that horse and
make pile Of money out of him.
The friend laughed at the idea and re-
piled: well, I will take the bet ,
Soon after this there began To appear
in the papeIs wonderful accounts of a
wonderful horse captured by Ere,
mont during his western expedition.
1t was said the horse was covered
with long wool. and that bis like was
not known either by men or books. A
short time later it was announced that
Barnum, the great Snowman, had pur-
chased this great wonder, and that be
would show him about the country,
and sure enough, som Washington
was flooded with bills saving the
wooliy horse was to be exhibited here.

below here. A big sign, relating how
it had been captured by Fremont was

Guiteau's Skeleton.

Guiteau's skeleton has at last been
srticulste and hidden III Il private
room of the Medical Army Museum,
the scene OF the assassination of me
late President Lincoln, but it has been
deemed best to deny the public admis-
sion IO the room, at least for the pres
ent. An improved French method
was adopted fer placing rhe bones in
position, the vertebre being held in
position by three large brass screws
attached to a perpendicular brass rod
about all inch in diameter. One of
the most skillful anatomists in this
country superintended the operation,
and great care was taken TO see that
none OF the bones were taken off by
relic seekers. When Guiteau's BODY
was first brought to the museum dar-
ing emplOye succeed in eluding the
Waterman and cut off a piece of flesh,
which he has since exhibited in alcohol.
Repeated polishing and bleaching has
given the articulsted skeleton the ap-
pearanse of an ivory figure, and the
few who have been allowed access to
the room in which it is stored pro-
nounce it most ereditable piece of
anatomical work. Upon The occasion

The BAZoo takes pleasure In reproducing
from the last rurnber of The Green Ridge
Enterprise the following article:
The old year has been one that will long
be remembered in the history of the gro With
and prosperity of Green Ridge. Within
the past year not less than twenty five new
buildings have been erected. The pupula-
ton has increased at the rate of about
5i3 per cent, and the wealth Of the town
hes grown almost in the same proportion.
At The commencement Of the old year there
were only about twelve business firms in
the town and some of them hardly doing
anv business. To day we have eighteen
live. energetic firms, all doing paying
business.
The new year promises larger increase
by far in population, wealth End impcr
lance than has been experienced In the old
wear. BY the time another year rolls
around We may confidently expect To see a
bank with sufficient capital TO enable il 10
he successfully conduc:ed- a Touring mill,
a fruit evaporation, a sorghum mill, a
broom factory, creamery establishment, "a
steam machine and woodworking establish
ment, all doing a large and paying bust
ness. We also expect 10 see a new school
house, new and better attended churches
and Sunday schools, the number and
quality of residents increased, more ide-
walks, more crossings, the population iu-
creased TO 900 and the business of the town
twice what il is now. When nj! this IL &C
complished, il viii be one OF the iiveliesl
