HORSE PARALYSIS.
A Dangerous Affection which Demand
Immediate Treatment.


Immediate Treatment.
Paralysis in horses almost invariably
affects the hind limbs, and is due TO a
'lisordcred condition Of the sciatic
nerve. The attack is generally very
sudden and occurs when the animal is
in harness, the first symptom being a
weakness in one hind leg, which will
be thrown out toward the shaft or traGYs,
accompanied by a knnckling Of the fot-
lock. The first thought that usually
occurs TO the driver Is that the animal
must have stepped upon something
that has injured It's foot. Unless the
horse Is stopped and active treatment
begun at once the other leg will gencr-
ally be affected in a short time, when II
the attack Is severe the animal will fall
upon is launches and can not rise.
Upon the first appearance OF faltering
and knuckling tho horse SHOULD be
stopped and covered with hlrnk,ts so
as to keep the loin and hirswarm. The
hip quarter and gaskin shoUld then be
rubbed briskly for short time. Call

AEti-Expiosive Goat. 4,
A grocer up Michigan avenue has
had pet goat hanging around hleI
back yard for the last two or threbl
years. The animal was Of no particIi

oranges, lemons and eggs, and to tdr.
riiy stch small boys as came into the
alley TO read dime novels or play mars

TO let him 90 for cash. The other day the
grocer purchased a four-gallon jar Jf
broken honey, and this was placed in
the back end of the store. At nodn-
time, when the only clerk was In N ,

Some people are strangely afe9tId

ney's New York house was selected as a ia
vorite piece Of furniture by President Cleve-
land. In consideration of this 1t has been
set by the fireplace of her Washington home.
The screens by the fire place. are paneled
with historic bits of old Gobelins tapestry,
which bear in gold on crimson ground the
Napoleonic eagle, the imperial bees ana the
conventional laurel wreaths of the nrst EN-
pire. The tapestry has been sadly moth-
eaten before twas found and cleyerly mount
ed and restored, and this pair OF screens are
one of the most interesting among the many
art objects and curios in the house. Several
paintings from the New York residence nave
been brought here to give this Injurious
apartment more of a home look to It's occu-
pants The most notable of them is a por-
trait by Lehman of an olive skinned bus
sian woman attired In the darkest brown
wraps, wearing tan-colored gloves and carry,

apce to the enforcement of legal obi
cations, still exist The Queens rem
edy is tightening of the screws,
unmindful of the fact that the policy
of coercion has been tried for centuries and
found wanting Evidently Her Majesty has
no sympathy with those who would grant sub
stantial concessions to the Irish people. She
expresses herself with unusual force and
directness ON this point. She is ''resolutely
opposed she says, to any disturbance of the
legislative union. That means that the pro-
position to give Ireland Parliament will en-
counter the opposition of herself and her
ministers. Of course the speech reflects the
policy the cabinet intends to pursue, but its
unusual strength and feeling indicate that
that policy is one that meets her hearty ap-
proval. The only concession that the Queen
suggests is a reform in the county govern
ment of Ireland, beggarly pittance which
will tend to anger rather than conciliate the
Irish people.
1t is evident now that Mr.. Parnell can ex-
pect nothing from the Tories. This speech
practically pledges them to their old policy
of coercion. If the Tory leaders relented a
title during the campaign, as they apparent
" did, and manifested an inclination to
grant substantial concessions to the Ma
tionalists the pressure of their constituents
has proved too strong and has forced them
back into the old rut Their very first
measure is likely toinvolye revival of the
hated crimes act and probably too some

The trade situation has no more promising
characteristic than the fact that stocks are
not mounting in volume at the opening of

most serious sign of the times in iron, cot
tons and woolens. 1t is not now in any one
of the three, and, while prices are stationary
demand keeps stocks low.
THIS is REFORM.
N. Y. Tribune.
The Acknowledgement has never denied
the charge that 81 $780, 000 of telephone stock
was given to him while he was a senator.
A fellow member OF the Cabinet, Secreta-
ry Lamar, has rendered decision whereby
the validity of the Bell patents is to be test
ed in the United States courts. This litiga-
ton will be conducted by the department of
the government of which Mr.. Garland is the
responsible head He has his gift-stock in
his pocket and will now use his official in
fiuence in breaking down the Bell patents
and enhancing the value Ofhis own telephone
stocks.
This is a sorry spectacle. One member of
the Cabinet comes to the rescue of his col
league in a decision giving speculative val
ue to telephone stocks which were originally
a gift presumably in exchange for official
influence at period when important legisla-
ton affecting patents was before Congress-
The gift-taker remains in office to conduct
litigations by which the value of his private
investments may be increased many times.
