RIDING IN MEXICO.
Frances L. Mace.

Lighting Cigarette While Sitting on a
BuclSing HOrse-The Secret of 1t.
The great feature of all Mexican riding is
loOseness Of their seat. 1t is all done bv
balance. And when l say "alln it means a
wonderful deal l have seen a Mexican
named LOuis-tO be sure he was accredited
to be the best rider out there, and for nv
own part cannot conceive that there can
be better in the wOrld-I have seen that
man cross his legs over the horn Of the big
Mexican saddle, and, throwing tho reins on
the neck of the horse, calmlysroll a cigarette
while the horse bucked up and down with
him.
know it is asking a great deal to expect
credence for such feat as this, but vet.
when we consider the pitch of perfection
reached by circus riders among our own
countrymen, the very much higher degree of
excellence attained by one remarkable man
out of nation whose members we NAV also
say are born on horseback, is not so alto
gether beyond the prospect of belief-though
there is Of course an enormous difference be-
tween riding the trained things in a circus
and the mustangs caught wild upon the
praries The Mexican saddle, with its great
stirTups and the horn on which the lassO
hangs, gives, of course, very many good
points dappui; but the performances of these
Mexicans ON bare back are wonderful ENOUGH.
You see a herd of wild horses driven
through the narrow pass of the corral Your
Mexican, with hair rope in his hand, will
drop from the beam above upon the back of
the horse it is wished to reclaim to domestic
uses.
In an instant he is away, snorting, below
ing, positively shrieking with terror, in the
midst of the laundering stampede of his fell
lows, who are scarce less terrified than him
self. He cannot buck, while the herd presses
closely upon him. The Mexican leans for
ward with the rope in both hands, passes it
over the horses head into the wide open
mouth, and forces it behind his teeth. Then
he takes turn with it under the lower law.
and there he has him bitted and bridled.
| After a little over half an hour he comes
back with him-broken; not $50 that a child
could ride him" but so that Mexican can.
OF course they are small horses. cannot
say how the Mexicans would fare with one of
those big Australian buckers. They main
tain, however, that this loose seat of theirs
| does not irritate horse in the way a grin
with the knees does; and this fully believe
Further than that, l fancy the solution of the
mystery about those horses which will &c
! quietly enough with lady, though a man
can hardly ride them, is to be sought rather
in the method of the ladys seat than, as is
commonly thought, in the superior delicacy
of her fair hands.-Murrays Magazine.

New Anecdotes of Grant.

Aropos Of "reminiscences concerning Gen.
Grant is this, which comes from his old
home in Galena.
Gen. Smith, one of the old residents of the
place, was at dinner one day, before the war
was fairly inaugurated, when servant an
nounced:
Some one to see you, sir"
"a gentleman, Jamesf
"Well, no, sir; he's just a common man. 1
gave him a chair in the hall
The common man" was the tanner Grant,
the future commander in chief Of the army
Of America
A few years later two gentlemen called on
young man who was located in Chicago
boarding house. Two pieces Of pasteboard
were sent to his room; on one was written in
pencil the name U. S. Grant The other
bore the cognomen of Gen. Grants friend
and chum, J. Russell Jones'
The young man on whom Gen. Grant was
calling was Eugene Snith, the son of Gen.
Smith, of Galena. The common mans
name was then foremost in the world.
At one time the ladies of certain church
in Galena gave a series of tea parties for
some charitable organization Mrs. U. S.
Grant belonged to the church circle, but
would not give the tea party.

Habits of the ostrich.

The supposition that an ostrich lays but
one egg annually, and drops that carelessly
in the sand, is nonsense. So also is the fam
iliar story that the bird is in the habit of
poking his head in the sand, thinking that it
may thus escape the observation of its pur-
suer. The ostrich is no such fool. The fe-
male lays as many eggs annually as any
goose or hen, and all the birds in the flock
use the same nest, which IS hole dug in the
sand in some secluded place where they are
safe from disturbance When there are
twenty or thirty eggs tie male bird matches
them, sitting upon the nest continually for
thirty days, and is fed meantime by the fe-
males During the period of incubation the
male bird is in an ugly mood and attacks
fiercely with his bill and feet any man OF
animal that approaches him. As the chicks
are Matched their mothers take care of them
the brood being divided among the flock by
some instinct, and tho cock is free to attend
to his own affairs again. Very often eggs
are found on the pampas, but such have been
dropped in the chase or by hens that have
been unable to reach the nest.-Philadelphia
Times

How to Handle Dynamite Safely.

Dynamite, when handled with ordinary
care, is not nearly 60 dangerous an explosive
as ordinary gunpowder. In fact. dvnamite
does not explode easily, but requires a sbarn
detonation to cause it to exhibits its immense
strength. To fire dynamite a illuminate can
is employed, which is itself exploded bv an
electric current from what is known as
ratchet machine. The electric current in its
passage through a small portion of platinum
wire in the cap raises the temperature of the
platinum to a white heat. This ignites tbe
illuminate, which detonates, striking the
dynamite cartridges with a blow of about
ZOO pounds, and exploding them. An ordi-
nary blow with pick or iron drill will not ex-
plode dynamite cartridge, but will explode
the cap.
The whole source of danger lies in the fact
that the men using the explosive do not un-
derstand that it is the cap and firing machine
they must handle with care. A properlv
prepared and electrically connected CHARGE
will seldom if ever fail to explode Careless
ness in connecting the wires from the CAPS
and in giving the firing machine more work
than it can do, often results in leaving por-
tion Of the charge unexploded to the imni-
nent danger of the men ON resuming work
The employment of dynamite in all rock
work has been carried to such an extent in
| recent years that ordinary miners. men who
from the nature of their education are totally
unable to comprehend the requirements for
absolute safety, and allowed to place and fire
! charges This is all wrong and should be
| prohibited by law. No one unfamiliar with
the requirements should be allowed to under.
take such work Putting ignorant and care
less men in position to handle any of the
| modern high explosives is almost certain tc
result in disastrous explosion and the con.
sequent killing or manning of number Of
men too ignorant to protect themselves

NEW YoRNs WINTER GARDEN.

Bermuda's Great Profit iH Raising Early
Vegetables for tho Metropolis.
Bermuda, the winter paradise of the guide
books, possesses a deeper interest for the ma
jority Of New Workers than as a pleasure
resort alone. 1t supplies the wealthy with
fresh vegetables in winter. There are a
thousand who eat Bermuda potatoes, Ber-
muda onions and Bermuda beets to one who
goes to bask in the genial climate of the
island. Although the Bermudas are in about
the same latitude as Charleston, the prox-
unity Of the Gulf Stream gives them warm,
moist climate that wonderfully stimulates
vegetation. The soil is very rich, and all
conditions combine to make the islands the
most perfect garden spot in the world. The
statistics of the production of the Bermudas
are something startling
The principal island Of the group is shaped
somewhat like the letter S, and is only
twenty-five miles long, following its curves,
or eighteen miles as the crow flies. At its
widest part the distance across the island is
only one and half miles. The total area is
12,31S acres, of which not over 1,4OO acres
are cultivated. The remainder is made up
Of rugged hillsides and timber land. The
soil suitable for gardening lies in pockets
and basins, and tho largest plots cultivated

are the 400 acres that the wants of the
population Of 5000 people are supplied, and
in one year produce valued at over $500. 600
was exported.
The island is divided into small farms of
from twenty to thirty acres each The land
is valued at from $3.50 to $3.50 per acre. and
farms Of twenty five acres with a good dwell
ing and outbuildings rent for $500 a year. A
little over half Of the population are negroes
The whites first came to the island from
Virginia, but have been largely increased
by English settlers in recent years. Fruits
and grain are raised for home consumption
but the chief occupation is vegetable grow
ing. The Bermuda onions, which are cele-
brated for their mild flavor, large size and
handsome appearance are planted in hot
| beds in October. In December they are
transplanted in the open fields, and the first
bulbs are shipped to this market about the
middle Of March. The potatoes and beets
are planted in December and January. Some
Of the roots are pulled and shipped as early
as the first of March, and by the end of the
month these vegetables are at their best The
tomato crop is planted in December, set out
IN january, and ripens from the middle of
March until June. The largest production
IN any one year was in 1892 The average
value of the crop exported is S400, 900. Ninety
per cent. Of all the produce shipped comes to
! New York.-New York Mail and Express.
