On An Ostrich Ranch.

Embarrassing has failed in Nevada, but
the ostrich ranch is destined to become a
prominent feature south of the Sierra
Madres. Two English companies Were
organized three years ago and the pros
poets are so extremely favorable that the
live stock is being rapidly added to. An
other herd of ostriches has been recently
brought from South Africa and a new
ranch started near Los Angeles.
Through the courtesy of the proprietOrs
and at the risk of continually exciting
and ANNOYING the birds the ostrich farm
is thrown open to the public, a nominal
charge being made to pay the expense of
a guide, who goes around with each Iar-
" to see that inquisitive Americans do
not help themselves to plumes. The herd
or flock at the ranch numbers sixty-four
at present.
THE questions people ask are some
what remarkable" said our guide as we
reached the ostrich farm and stopped in
front of a pen of two-year-Old chicks.

birds roasted and one of our boys told

II is a difficult question to determine
how far the dignity and impressiveness of

good man whom we all delight to honor?
When Shakespeare character asks the

spondent, that which We call a rose by

en Ofsoent must have warned them that
some stranger was about the place. At
midnight Mrs. sherman attached
q rope to the collar ot either dog and
passed out of the hou-c, locked the door
behind her. She walked down the road
about q mile, and then made q defour
across tn" prairie and struck tn" creek
half a mile below the ford. The waters
were waist high and very cold, but she
soon crossed. She struck the highway
above the ford, and walked on. but had
not gone above a mile when she encOun-
tered her husband. In a few minutes he
was in possession Of her story, and he
was not long deciding on'a plan of action.
His wife mounted the horse and he led
it until they approached the creek. He
then left her, called to the dogs, and
went forward to uncover the wOuld-be as
sassins. The dogs were furious for the
hunt, and they had not been gone from
his side five minutes before they found
and fiercely attacked the half breed.
Three or four shots were fired and then
came calls for help. Sherman advanced
to find Jack on the ground, badly wound

The strange man had taken To flight,
holly pursued by the other dog-This
dog did not return for two hours, and
then his chops were red with blood, but
it wa never definitely known whether
his victim escaped or was pulled down.
The sudden attack of the dogs confused
the men in hiding, and a shot meant for
one of the brutes, struck Jack in the
chest. Knowing that he had only a short
time to live, he confessed that the pair
had planned to waylay, murder, and rob
Sherman, and had they been successful
in this they would have afterward mnr-
