a KNOWING HoRsE.-l.ast Tuesday week,
during the storm, gentleman left his horse
and buggy standing in front of the store at For.
est Hill, while he went inside to transact some
business. When he came out the horse aud
buggy were gone, but they were found snugly
ensconced in sheltered situation behind some
freight cars on the opposite side of the railroad
track. Curious to know how the horse got
there unassisted, the gentleman traced the
wheel tracks and found that his horse had first
tried to turn the buggy around in the road, but
not being able to do this without overtuning
the vehicle, he sagaclously backed it on the
other lock and thereby secured room enough in
which to turn, and then carefully picked his
way to the sheltered spot, where he stood quietly
awaiting his master The horses actions show
ed something superior to instinct, If not high
