a Foot Race for SI.00G

The Eureka Nev.) Seafiae1 SAYS:
Several sporting characters and q resi-
dent OF White Pine county arranged a
foot race that was to take place on Main
street at I O'Clock October 4tL. Five
hundred dollars in coin was put up by
the White Piner on his man. A like
amount was promptly produced by the
opposition. The hour for the race arriv-
ed, but the White Piner, it is alleged,
was not on hand with his man, and in &C
cordance with sporting rules, the other
racer walked over the course and then
claimed the stakes of $1,000, which he OBJ
tanned. Later in the day both the foot
racer who walked over the course and
the III who failed to do so we're arrested
The arrest, as We understand it, is in the
interest of the White piner, who claims
that he was Illegally deprived of his $500.

SHOEIEG THE HORSE.
Horseshoers Responsible for Nearly AL the
Troubles of Horses.

Horseshoers Responsible for Nearly AL tho
Troubles of Horses.
Smiths cut and slash away on the
feet until all the life is gone. They
nail the shoe on with seven or eight
nails when four or five would answer
every purpose and so be much better
for the foot. They shoe the poor horse
now as they did one hundred years ago.
They employ boys, in many eases, to
nail and trim the foot, who have no
more idea of what they are doing than
q monkey has of the weather predic-
tons. The owners of horses stand
around and say nothing, but allow them
full sway. On, owners of horses, why
will you allow the poor horse to be
butchered? Why don't you stop and
reason? Ask yourself, does the foot
require so much cutting? | tell you
right here no; it will not stand it.
Shoe the foot in the most simple way.
The shoe, the rasp and four or five
nails for the gentleman's road horse is
all that is required. What is still bet
ter is short shoe, called q tip. If you
can not make up your mind to use the
tip, use plain. flat shoe, and have it
put on the way have stated. Don't
90 to the shop with your horse and tell
the smith to shoe him, but tell him how
you want him shod, the most simple
way is the better. Say mike, Pat or
Jerry, want my horse shod, just rasp
his foot off, so he will have a level bear
ing. Do not touch knife to it. at all.
Nail on short, fiat shoe, with four or
five nails and let it alone. l want the
outside of the foot, to look as dirty as
possible, no sand-paper or rasp goes on
the outside of the same. In little
time you will have foot on your
horse that is sound and strong, free
from corns, or any other trouble. Now,
if every owner Of q horse will do this
much, we will not see the poor crippled
horses that we do now in one years
time. Every man who owns a horse,
will own ono that can walk, trot or
run, and do it with ease and pleasure.
After you do this much, you will short
en- the shoe little, you will find that
improves your horse, after while you
will shorten it still more, before you
know it, you will be driving your
horse with tips. then both you and the
horse will be pleased.-Turf, Field and

A WISE COUNCIL.
WOros OF Unmlxed Praise for the City
Fathers of Weimar.

Horos OF Unmixed Praise for the City
Fathers of Weimar.
The people of Weimar are to be con-
graduated upon the possession of
municipal authorities at once wise in
council and determined in action.
These city fathers have boldly taken in
hand the great piano question, and
their method of assaulting the strong
and hitherto unassailed position shows
considerable strategical ability. Hith-
erto the piano in the home has been
able to iniict itself upon whole neigh
borhood with impunity by virtue of
being securely posted in a private
house. Who, without infringing the
most sacred liberties, could prevent a
man from playing. or setting his daugh-
ter to play" taci per alien, facI per
she, " as q Judge once rhrased ton
his own piano in his own room? The
Weimar magistrates have no idea of
making any such attack on the freedom
OF the subject. They only decree that
when the piano is played in any room
the windows shall be shut. This is
logical. The player insists that his
house is his own to do as he likes in.
BY all means, but it is not quite pri-
vate till it is inclosed from the public.
Clause carcere regnet. The eff
feet of this edict will be to relieve the
general public from the worst infections
of the instrument. Nothing worse
than fitful gusts of half-muf1led sound
can come through the glass, and the
torture will be to the apartments next
adjoining. The offender will. in fact
consume his own noise. In the hot
summertime, too, when the nuisance
is apt to be most intrusive, the law will
operate to put stop to piano-playing
altogether; for compliance with the
necessary condition will be well-nigh
impossible. If it is the mark of good
generalship to produce the greatest re-
suits with the least disturbance and
smallest expenditure of effort, the Wei
mar corporation have certainly shown
it in this. Further, they have followed
up their advantage by imposing a tax
on private musical parties. The i'm
post is rather heavy go shillings), and
will be prohibitive except in the case of
those rich enough to provide music
worth listening to. 1t is to be hoped
that Weimar will not long stand alone
in the enviable position of municipal
ity that has boldly attacked the music
nuisance at its most vulnerable points.
It would 90 far to reconcile us to the
idea of one municipality for all London
if we could be assured that its men,
bers would have the courage shown by
the men of Weimar. We may observe,
too, that the repression of private
pianos obviously includes the abolition
of the street nuisance. For if the in
strument may not be played in 4 pri-
vate room with the window open, a
tortioT it must not be played in the
open streets, reinforced by mechanical
appliances to increase its powers for
mischief. London Standard.
