A Very Sick Horse Thief.

Deputy Sheriff Campbell got back Tuesday
from long chase after horse thief, and the
thief came with him.
Leandro Daley brought team owned by
Nate Hultz here on the 24th Of March and
put them in Campbell and Blacks corral. He
borrowed saddle and went ''into the coun-
try" on one of the horses. Next day Dan was
notified the fellow was thief, and started
after him. In Oregon he was joined by the
sheriff of Baker county, and the officers fol-
lowed the trail, which got hotter and hotter,
to the Nevada line, where the Oregon sheriff
stopped. Dan sent back word that he'd get
that fellow now if he had to follow him
through Gehenna. Nothing more was heard
till Dan rode in with the prisoner and proper
ty, triumphantly.
About 10 Wednesday night Dan had Daley
in the back room of the Exchange, and while
the officers back was turned for moment the
prisoner broke away through the back door
and hasn't been seen since.
1t has since been learned that Daley went
over the river and stole an estray horse that
Hultz had taken up, and saddle. Constable
Dan Brown is after him with blood in his eye
When Daley arrived in Caldwell he went
to Gwinn and Bakers with forged order for
suit Of clothes, and got the goods. Mr.
Hultz says he never gave him an order. 1t is

IRON CRYSTALS.
Good Steel Presenting the appearance Of
Groups of Beautiful Crystals.

An exchange says that the microscop.
ic determination of the different quail
ties of iron and steel is now regarded as
one of the most valuable aids in metal
lurgical industries. Thus the crystals OF
iron are double pyramids in which the
proportion of the axes to the bases sva-
ries with the quantity of the iron; the
smallness of the crystals and the height
of the pyramids composing each ele-
ment are in proportion to the quality
and density of the metal. which are seen
in the iincness of the surface; and as the
proportion of the carbon diminishes in
the steel. the pyramids have so much
the less height. In pig iron and the
lower qualities of hard steel the crystals
approach the more closely the cubic
form. Forged iron has its pyramids
fiattened and reduced 10 supcrposed
parallel leaves. whose structure const;-
tutes what is called the nerve of the
steel; and the best quality of steel has
all its crystals disposed in parallel lines,
each crystal filling in the interstices be-
tween the angles OF those adjoining.

direction of the percussion they undergo

Cape Horn Route to China.

Captain Robert B. Forbes, of Boston,
has recently suggested to the Hydro
graphic Office new route for vessels
from the United States to ports in Japan
and Northern China. His suggestion
substantially is that vessels leaving
American ports during the months from
August to November inclusive, and ar
irving on the China coast during the
season of the northeast monsoon,
.'could accomplish the voyage in a
shorter time by the way Of Cape
Horn than by the route around the
Cape of Good Hope" The researches
of the photographic Office on this
point, though not conclusive, show APP
parently that this voyage can be made
via Cape Horn in about fifteen days less
than by the old passage north of Aus
tralia and in about twenty-five days less
than by the passage south of Australia.

The Draft Horses of France.

While some people in America call

in France called by that name by the

therefore, is purely American. The
principal breeds of France are known
as Percherons and Boullanais. The
Percherons are the moSthighiy priced Of

Government, is the only stud book Of
draft horses that is or ercr has been pub

pedigrees of about 5000 animals. But
some importers are offering certificates
that may mislead people who do not
understand the French language into
believing these records of origin. Not
one of them issued contains pedigree.
They are furnished at the request of
American buyers by the secretary of
one of the French Agricultural socie-
ties, who says there is no intention of
publishing them in stud book form, as
they have no pedigrees and are of no
value whatever. 1t is 4 well known
