RocInr BuIls in France.


In Franco there is breed Of cattle called
the Landaisc. These animals arc peculiar to
the department Of Landes, where tho grass Is
hard and scanty, and where tho agriculture
Is rude indeed On many OF the farms these
cattle arc fed by hand. There are openings
with wickets in tho wall OF tho house, which
faces on the court where tho cattle are kept
Members Of tho farmers household take their
places by these openings and feed tho cattle
from within. They hand out mouthful after
mouthful, but 50 slowly that the animal puts
its muzzlc to the opening and has every straw
carefully tucked in between its jaws. Hour
aftor hour is consumed in this kind of feed
Ing. Sometimes the COW tires before it is
considered she has had enough In that case
piece of turnip or choice wisp Of hay Is
offered. Tho poor brute raises her head to
the opening only to be fooled and have
tucked down hor throat another bunch Of
coarse straw. 1t Is said to DO astonishing
how little is required to keep tho Landaise
thrifty by these methodical methods OF feed
ing.
The Landaiso COWS, ns we'll rs the oxen,
arc worked hard in the fields and ON tho
roads. Some of these animals are highly
priced foT their speed, and the most exciting
features of tho programmes Of the fairs in
Landcs are tho bull races. The consul who
sent home picture of q Landaise racer said
the agility wns extraordinary. These ami
mails take trot without being blown. They
often mako long trips, covering forty-fve and
fifty miles In day. ct the games in Landes
they arc turned loose in ring, and tho 9TH
lete wins the plaudits Of the spectators by
teasing and lodging ono Of these bulls. The
performers greatest feat is to advance with
q cigarette in his mouth. The bull charges
With lowered horns. Tho athlete nicely cal
culates the distance, and just as the bull
reaches him no places foot between the
Aerns and vaults over the bulls back, being
aided In the jump By the upward toss Of the
animals head. ST. Louis Globe-Damocrat-

Every one OF these men possesses ability

YOUNG wOMAN's HOME.
An Institution Deserving of Aid and
Encouragement.

Encouragement.
one OF the noblest enterprises ever under
taken in Washington city is that which was
chartered by Congress Feb. 49, 1887, under the
name of the "Young womans Christian
Home, located at 1928 g street northwest.
The object of this benevolent institution is
TO give the young women who are searching
for employment or those who come TO this city
for that purpose protection and assistance and
provide them with home until employment
be found.
The "home" is comfortably furnished and
presided over by a most excellent Christian
lady, who makes It blessing to al who come
under her influence.
What nobler thought and desire could have
entered into the head and heart of woman
than thiS-to give shelter, protection, and as.
ssiance to hLr less favored young sisters
thrown out upon the world TO earn thgdr liyeli,
hood in a strange city
II was noble thought and deserves ready
and liberal support from the community, bu.
cause II reaches deserving class for whom
there Is no provision In any of the benevolent
enterprises which grace our city.
God bless the projectors of this institution
and grant them rich reward in the good re-
suits which must ensue from its establishment.
The officers and directors desire TO c4.l the
attention OF the public to the location OF the
home and It's objects, and request that young
women so CirCumstAnced may be guided 10 the
safety Of It's shelter So benevolent an enter
prise should commend itself to the heart of

rump, who by reason OF numbers control
the committee, will satisfy the public why
nothing has been done openly and decently.
Here are the rames; Roger @. Mills, Of
Texas; Benton McMillln, OF Tennessee;
Clifton X. Bre:kiurijge, OF Arkansas; W.
c. =, Breckinrldge, OF Kentucky; Henry
Il. Turner, of Georgia. William L. Wilson,
of West Virginia; William l.. Scott, OF
Pennsylvania, and William d. Bynum, OF
Indiana.
Two Of these men only represent con-
stituencIes whose interests are vitality
associated with proposed or desired legls-
lation, and OF these Mr.. Scott is large
owner Of bltuminous coal mines in Canada,
and wants the freest trade In sll thlngs
with that province, and Mr.. Bynum Is more
interested In a tariff for spolls than for any
thing Of public concern. As TO the others,
they seem to have been selected because
their districts are furthest removed from a
suspicion OF progress In commercial affairs.
Mr.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, is gifted in
oratory, Mr.. Turner has strong points as a
lawyer, and Mr.. Scott ranks high as o
political manipulation. This comprehends
the intellectual force Of the controlling
majority OF the great ways and means COM
mittee, whose conspicuous inferiority be.
gins at the head with Little Boss Mills, and
improves very little until 1t reaches the
minority, at the head Of whom stands the
veteran Kelley.
The country can have no hope OF COM
mittee organized wrong end first, dominated
by brute force and actuated by motives
which will not bear the light of day. 1t is
a manifest abortion, aud should any rev.
enue legislation succeed in this Congress 1t
must come from the minority. But the
Mills rump is power for mischief, and II
1t cauno; enforce its rulnous policy 1t will
probably defeat all efforts for practical re.
form. 1t will perform one good service
It will help to make the fifty first Congress
Republican.
