Beats Dallas.

The Poster of the San Antonio Fair
has reached the LIGHT, and in origi-
nality and beauty it tops over every
thing else of the kind ever seen in the
way of advertising the Lone Star
State and the Alamo City. 1t has
been designed by DR.. P. Ornelas,
Mexican consul to San Antonio, and
Autographed in st. Louis in II days,
such expeditions work being due to
the energetic prodding of Mr.. Louis
Workman secretary and manager of
the Fair Association. Seated OH a
parapet overlooking the fair land at
her feet, watered by the Rio Grande,
is the figure of Texas, her back
ground the sunset sky, and the Stars
and Stripes. AT her side rests the
Lone Star shield and one hand holds
out a laurel wreath to the flying fig
urs of Mexico who showers the fruits
of the earth into the lap of her fair
sister. The giant peaks of the Sierra
Madres rise through the clouds of the
west. In the corner of the design
are sketches of Mission San Jose,
Government post and tower and the
Fair and exposition buildings. The
talented doctor is to be complimented
on his artistic conception.

 "Now, we're all right" said Jean, @only keep we'll behind SO he won't turn" The bull snorted wildly at the sound of the shouts, and swam iran tically in effort to get free from his unwelcome freight.
 Jean, still keeping fast hold of the great brutes mAne, drifted backward far as he could and then hopped himself over the creature's sunken hind quarters, SO that it now lowed one person on each side. Once the bull turned his head If about to face about, but Jean promptly let go with his light hand and struck him blow on the eye.
 "Don't let him turn your way, Louis" said Jean. "Let's keep him as straight ahead as he go. Kick hard and help all you can; we must get across before the rest of 'em, If possible"
 Louis readily comprehended the situation. The cool water helped him to retain the of his arm, in which, fortunately no bone was broken, and he worked vigorously to relieve the bull of part of the burden of drawing him on behind
 The old fellow proved to be a strong swimmer, and exerting himself to tho utmost to get rid of his hangers on, he reached shallow water several rods in advance Of the nearest others Of the herd. Here the boys let go of the bull, which lunged himself out upon projecting sand-bar and thence up the bank beyond.
 Jean and Louis followed the bull to the shore, and ran to some scatterS d cottonwoods which grew along the bank Each got behind a tree, and there stood wriDging his clothes and skipping his arms to warm himself, while for fifteen or twenty min- utes the dripping herd numbered past them, the

 An hour later Jean's hunters. who had ridden up on the other side, discovered Jean and Louis who were pacing the bank they awaited their com- rades arrival. One of the hunters went for canoe and came after them. Then they learned that a party of Aniskaras from above had stsmpeded the herd and had hung upon its outskirts until they had killed as many buffAloes as they wanted.
 Since he left his saddle to plunge to the of his comrade, Jean has never seen heard ofether of the ponies which he and l. puis rode on the day of the stampede. They were undoubtedly forced into the river, and either drowned or wam to the other bank and ran on with the herd. He is inclined 10 think that they crossed safely and picked up by some struggling band of the Assinne- boines or Crees, who hunted upon that side of the river.

The Sounding Stones of ouildo.
 Popnlar Science Nswa


 Not far from the town of DinAn, in Brittany, upon the banks of the river Arguenon, arc several large stones, which have the remarkable property of giving out, when struck, clear, musical sound. eral known a amphibole, and are of roughly prsmatic shape, about twenty feet in length. Thsy are not cratic boulders brought by ancient gla- ciers, but have been broken of from the neighhor- ing strata, and worn into their present shape, by the action of tho waters of the river and sea a af the point where they arc found, the waters of the river enter into small bay, and forced back by the rising tide twice day. The middle stone which produces the phenomena most perfectly, is terminated ct one end by sort of truneated spur when this is struck with hammer stone, clear, svery note is produced, resembling that of large bell, struck with mallet of soft wood. At other points upon the stone the sound varies In strength and clearness, and, at certain points-correspond- ing, perhaps, to the nodes of . vibrating cord-no sound Is produced. There are numerous similar stones In the vicinity which show the same phe- nomena, but none as perfectly the one described Three Of the former have been found which give a very perfect major chord. while many others, sim liar In appearance, give no sound at all. The prop erty of producing musical note is very different from that of the "singing sands" which occur in various parts of the world, and is, undoubtedly, simply due to the hard close grained structure of the rocks, as we'll as the position in which they placed, those giving the clearest notes being lifted up from the ground and supported at . few points only by other similar stones. species of feldspar known as phonolite, or clinkstone, gives similar sounds when struck by the hammer.
 The natives call these stones "the horses In the stable" and have . curious legend concerning them hump backed tailor having done the fairies a good turn, they allowed him to strike the stones and at the same time make wish. At the call of the my sterious bell they appeared in great num- bers and, in compliance with his wishes, removed his haI,p. neighbor of tho tailor, an unbeliev- ing miller, proceeded to the place and derisively caused the stones to give forth their note. The fairies, however answered the call, and, by way Of punishment, fixed the tailor's hump upon the back of the scofiing grinder Of grain, who, doubtless, ever after treated the fairies with great respect Even without the added charm to the Breton legend, the stones c remarkable natural curi- osity, and of great scientific interest.

 "Ah, there, babyi" screamed the parrot hid be- hind paper which Willie had placed the cage. The old maid looked startled, but grin appeared the faces of several of the other passengers. "Oh, mamma P c oaked the bird.
 The old maid glared at each passenger, highly indignant.
 "Where did you get that hat, I'd like to know?" went on the irrepref sible bird.
 The clerical passenger looked up in alarm and then felt his hat in nasty confusion. Every one noted the action and ripple of suppressed lasgh- ter went over the car
 "Ah, there, whiskers"
 The clerical man leaped to his feet and drowned at a smooth faced young man near the front. "I won't be insulted," he cried.
 "Ding, ding two more fares out of the companys pockets"
 The conductor flushed and hastened into the car from the back platform.
 "Who said that7" he demanded.
 Willie looked as demure as an angel "Johnny, get your hair cut"
 An old man with long hair made precipitate departure from the car.
 At Broad street Willie lifted the paper grabbed the csge, and got of the car.
 Then the passengers tumbled.
