RIDING A HORSE.

Buffalo Bill Does Not Like the English
style rs Well rs the American.
The American way of riding a horse
is the only way that comfort can be had
for both man and beast BY the Ameri-
can way l mean sitting in the saddle.
am sorry that great many gentle
men of this country are using the En-
glish style on horseback-that is. they
rise in the saddle with the motion of
the horse. Last summer when l was
in England l noticed this style par
ticularly. Idon't see how it can be COM
Portable, and l know it is any thing
but graceful to see a man humping
up and down in his saddle. The
English who saw US ride soon came to
this conclusion. They agree that the
American style was the only style and
soon began to copy us. Expert riders
came down to see me. They tried the
American style, and now many gentle
men can be seen every day in their
park riding the American style. To
ride properly you must sit firmly in
your saddle. Get q comfortable sad
die to begin with. Then sit squarely
in it. Have your stirrups long enough
to save some of the weight from the
horses back and so that you can raise
yourself in them when necessary. /
always raise myself in the saddle to
shoot. can get in steadier position
and get a better aim. When sitting on
your horse grip him with your legs,
between your hip and your knee. Sit
erect and hold your reins low down
and short enough to feel his head. The
first thing . rider should do Is to learn
his horse. Learn the different gaits
of the horse and then ride with the
horse-go with his motion. This IL
less firing to the horse and to the rider.

TROPICAL PLANT LIFE.

Wonderful Fruits Growing In Great Pro-
fusion In the West Indies.
All through the land round about are
other wonders. There are avenues of
table-trees, whose foliage seems exag-
gerated horizontally; alleys of ma
hogany-trees; lanes of Orinokes, whose
fronds coruscate with crimson blossom
ing. There are amazing shrubs
orange-colored things; there are plants
with glossy leaves speckled in four
different colOrs; there are various
plants that look like wigs of green
hair, or masses of filiform green sea-
weed, set on short sticks; plants with
enormous broad leaves, SO diaphanous
as to seem made of green glass; plants
that do not look like real plants. but
like OSCILLATIONS of plants, like the
fantasticalities of wood-carvers and
stone-cutters animated by witchcraft.
There are grasses that look like dwarf
palms arbOrescent grasses with
curving stems and plumed heads.
There are flowers OF extravagant
forms and colors-flowers that pos
sess familiar shapes. but have absurd
tints and unfamiliar perfumes, yellow
and indigo and green. orange and black
and crimson plants. And in all the
ponds. covering all the canals, float
the green navies Of the monster lily,
the Victoria Regia Close to shore the
leaves are not extraordinarily large;
but they increase in breadth as they
float further out. as II gaining bulk
proportionately to the depth of water
A few yards OF, they are large as soap
plates; further out, they are broad as
dinner trays; in the center of the pond
or canal they have surface large az
tea-tables. And all have an upturned
edge. q perpendicular rim. like bull

snake-nut tree. bearing most ghastly
fruit For this swart nut-shaped
almost like . clam shell, and halving in
the same way along its sharp edges
incloses something incredible. There
is q pale envelop about the kernel; re-
move it, and you find between your
fingers . little viper. triangular-head-
ed. coiled thrice upon itself, perfect in
every detail of form from skull to tail.
Was this marvellous mockery evolved
for protective end? It Is no eccen-

AT the 1urtneSt points reached on
both the Bussera and Tchuapa rivers,
about two hundred and fifteen miles
apart, the continued advance of the
little steamer Peace was rendered
impossible by the frantic hostility of
the Batwa and their neighbors. Won
Francois, one of the most graphic
writer's and accomplished geographers
who have visited Africa make a lively
picture of the bowling little demons
on the shores of the Bussera, showing
hundreds of arrows that, Shiny with
poison. dashed against the steel net
work which protected the steamer or
stuck in the wooden sun roof. He
gives US vivid idea of the agility and
acrobatic accomplishments of these
people two hundred and fifteen miles
away on the Tchupa- He saw the little
warriors clamboring along precipitous
slopes above the river, where there
seemed hardly a foothold; saw them
swinging like monkeys from limb to
limb of trees, and climbing out on
branches overhanging the water SO
that they might speed their arrows at
shorter range against the putting and
impertinent monster that had dared to
intrude upon the privacy of the little
folks. He heard their ear-splitting
yells, which were wholly out of pro-
portion to their physical insignifi-
canoe. Grenfell Is man of peace.

COLONEL EMILE FREY.
The Swiss Envoy and Minister PIenipoten-
 tiary to the United States.

The Swiss Envoy and Minister Pienipoten-
 tiary to the United States.
 The Republic of Switzerland sent re- gently to the United States, as Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotcn- tiary. a gentleman who figured as gallant soldier in our civil war. This fact gives an uncommon interest to the personality and career of Emile Frey.
 The Swiss Minister was born at Aries helm, Switzerland, October 3, 183S Ho was carefully instructed at home by teachers preparatory to school and col lege. At twenty-two years of age he was graduated at the University of Jena. Shortly afterward he came to the United States. In 1861 Frey en- listed in the Union army as private soldier. He served throughout the war. At the battle of Gettysburg he was taken prisoner. He was confined in Libby Prison. After the war Frey re- turned to his native country, where he was elected to an important local office. His next step in political promotion was membership i'll and the presidency of the administration in the Canton of Basel Six years after his first taking part in the government of the Canton, he became, in the year 1872, member of the Swiss National Council. He was ten years member of this body, part of the time its President. When it had been determined by the Swiss Govern ment to send an Envoy and Minister Plenipotentiary to the United States, Colonel Frey wass given the position. The Swiss Minister is a Colonel in the Swiss army. He is widowcr with children. who are attending school in Switzerland. In his official capacity and as private gentleman, Colonel Frey is much liked by his associates.
 His personal appearance resembles that of the late President Garfield. He Is tall. big-headed and blond-bearded. Frey received General Grant when he passed through Switzerland on his tour around the world. - Chicago Inter OcedsL

would be strictly enforced wherever viola
