Deer hounds, although still very rare
in this country, are coming into popu-
larity among sportsmen. Gen. Custer
was the first to import them to this
country. They do not follow by scent,
hut by sight, and are, consequently, Of
little use in a wooded country, but are
admirably adapted to the western plains
in running down antelopes after they
ha Q letn wounded.

papors-The Eject.
For the purpose of attracting atten-

goods firm at Cohoes, N. Y, on the
18th advertised they would sell three
yards OF silk for 1 cent. The store
was thronged with women at an early
hour the following morning, and a
quantity Of silk was secured by the
first corners. This heightened the ex-
element, and soon the store and side
walks were blockaded with half-frantic
women. Some of them climbed on
the. counters, others screamed and a
few tainted, and others were trampled
upon and severely injured. Several
hundred dollars worth of goods was
destroyed, and for a while pande-
monium reigned. Many articles OF
value were stolen. The firm was par
alyzed at the acknowledgements ofthis
advertisement. A detail of police was
found necessary to clear the building.

How He Paid for His Ride.

49,. E
The s'smalls boy was avenged in a
little affair in Madison Avenue near
Fifty-eighth Street the other day. A
well known Wall Street broker out
with his wife for q sleigh ride had a
host of small boys with big sleds shout
ing after him, "May I catch on, mis-
ter?" until patience ceased to be a
virtue and he answered savagely, eyes,
catch on and be BANKED" His wife
said to him: :t"Tut, tut, James; you
were boy once yourself" Just then
a bright little fellow threw a loop over
the rail at the rear of the sleigh, and
s.caught on" The Wall Street man,
looking over his shoulder at the b
grinning face, took the whip anu 9
dashed thehorse, which sprang forw @ro
at a great pace. "I'll show 'em some
thing" he muttered, as they neared
Sixteenth. Street, the boy clinging
closely to his sled and watching the
road like a young hawk, but evidently
relishing the race. At Sixteenth Street
the man in the sleigh gave his horse q
sudden pull for a turn, with the in
tention of throwing the boy and his
sled against the curb. The young
ster was on the watch and
suddenly released his hold. The
sleigh, without his weight, tilted up on
one runner, quivered there a moment
and then tipped over. The broker
was piled up on the curb against which
he had expected to "spill" the small
boy, and his wife, came down on him
with thump that nearly took his
breath away. The horse bounded
madly away. The plucky young
ster, having had his ride, now
proved his mettle by =" cutting
a Boston corner and head
ing off the animal, which he did SO
quickly that he was able to bring the
horse to q stop by a few jerks at the
reins. Some bystanders helped to
right the sleigh and the boy led the
horse back in triumph to the spot
where the thoroughly shaken-up Wall
Street man just recovering his feet
and breath. When the couple had
returned to the sleigh, the lady
whispered to her husband. and he
pulled out piece Of silver and held it
out toward the lad. 'eNo, thank you,
mister" said the boy, II owed you
for a ride" Then the crowd cheered
and the broker drove off. A Tribune
reporter heard him say last night that
he intends to hunt up that "small boy
and set him up in life.

although both are probably painless.
It is worthy Of record, however, that
all animals are not equally suscepti-.
BILE to the action Of the:
narcotic vapors. Cats, for In
stance, lie asleep much longer then
dogs before they cease to breathe.
They fall into sleep as rapidly as dogs,
but.do not pass SO quickly into the
final sleep. There is a difference be-,
tween different animals Of the same
kind. Some dogs die almost instantly
in fact as they fall asleep; others fall
asleep and continue to sleep for sever
al minutes before they cease to live.5
In the first observations, before had
rendered the narcotic atmos-
phere overpoweringly active for oil
cases, there we're q few instances, nine
in the first seven hundred, in which the
animals slept on from half an hour
until an hour after all their comrades
had died. Finding out this strange
popularity, I increased the amount of
narcotic vapor until all succumbed
very nearly at the same minute, and
in the last six thousand there has
been no recurrence of the prolonged
insensibility. The animals are now
commonly all asleep in from two to
three minutes, and have ceased to ex-
list in a further period of the same
duration.
Not Good Market.
Washington Letter Chicago Tribune.1
Washington cannot be considered
good matrimonial market. Theyoung
women do not find husbands easily in
the society of this place. The proof of
the fact is that there is hardly lead
ing official or wealthy family here that
has not one or two old maids upon
it's hands. This is notably true of
some of the most prominent and dis
tinguished. Here are daughters whose
fathers have large wealth and hand
some positions. Yet their daughters,
who are thoroughly trained, well
hammered, and educated, do not find
husbands. Whether it is that these
young ladies aim to high or not is
unknown. It may be that their faith
ers are not able to give them money
enough to set them up in establish
ments equal to their own, and as a
natural consequence these young
women may prefer the prestige and
comfort of their fathers handsome
positions to the obscurity of marrying
an humble citizen or the uncertainty
involved in marrying man who is
not rich. could name at least twenty
young ladies who have been bellies in
Washington society for at least ten
years. There are very few marrying
