CHICkEN .IND RLcrcLr.

An ardent cycllst, who hadn't kept
his machine in good order, concluded
yesterday to polish it up, says the
Washington S'ar In this work he
took the wheels apart, laid the pieces
down carefully here and there, and
put the small balls in n saucer to clean
and replace with great care These
balls are Of steel, exact in size and
number, and of vast Importance in
ball-bearing cycles While at work a
chicken waltZed up to the saucer, and
in a twinkling there was ball bearing
rooster in the yard The bicyclist did
not discover his loss until he went tC
replace the balls, when he suddenly
attributed the disappearance to the
peculiarities of chicken But which
chicken Of the half dozen thcreabouts
1t could not be determined by oldi
nary observation, and so the heads OF
most of the lot were wrung when in
the craw Of one of them the missing
machinery was found.

q FORCED TAX.

The Cinnamon in California, al
though aliens, are obliged to pay
poll-tax of three dollars, if under sixty
years of age. As they are a thrifty
people, inclined to save, and not at all
in sympathy with American institu-
tons, they do all they can to avoid this
tax. Mr.. Frank, an assessor in one Of
the mountain districts, had a good deal
of trouble one spring in finding GER
tain Chinaman, sam Lee, who was
on his list.
He went to Sans shauty twice; he
looked for him at the placer mine where
he "panned out" his daily wages, but
all in vain, Sam managed to avoid the
assessor. One morning, however, Mr..
Frank happened to meet him on the
mountain road.
Hello, Sam Lee!" said he, stopping
his horse, I've been looking for You
You must pay your poll-tax-three dol
lars.
ME no payee; me llixty-nine old, :"
said Sam.
Nonsense, you're not forty, and you
know it. Come. You must pay that
tax. Out with it.
ME kliXty eight" urged Sam
Nonsense, l tell you. | know bet
ter"
Me klixty-seven," pleaded the
Chinaman; and as the assessor still
shook his head and looked command
ing, he ran beseechingly down the
years from "kliXty-kliX' to "kliXty,"
But the majesty of the law, as personi-
fed by Mr.. Franks unbending deci-
sion, at last awed him. Reluctantly
he drew from his blouse a leather bag,
took out of it three silver dollars, and
handed them to the assessor with this
parting shot
Mclean man heap stealee. What
for you no catch-um pistol-gun ?"
Mr.. Frank says that he has never
since approached Chinaman for his
poll-tax without remembering the time
he was made to feel like highway rob

How TO Stop a Runaway Horse.

a policeman, who has distinguished him
self in stopping runaway horses, gives the
following points as to how 20 accomplish that
end with the greatest success: When you see
a runaway coming do not try to check him
by rush from the opposite direction or the
side, for you viii be Immediately knocked
fat by the collision; but, instead, prepare
yourself for q short run with the horse
Measure with your eye the distance, start for
the run while he is yet some way off, perhaps
ten feet, in the case of fair to medium run
Always You may depend upon his keeping a
straight line, for a really frightened horse is
half blind and would not veer for a steam
engine. He win go straight ahead until he
slnashes into something. SO do not get close
to the line on which he is rushing, and
as he passes you grab the reins
near the saddle. Gather the reins
firmly; then, leaning backward as you
run, give them a powerful yank. You
may be able TO brace yourself somewhat az
you give this jerk, half sliding on your feet.
The strong jerk on the bit tells the horse that
he again has master, and prepares him for
the final struggle. A step or two forward
after the first yanl, do it again. This is the
finishing stroke. IL never fails when given
by determined man. The horse is on its
launches. Keep a firm pull on the reiI Ii

ESOP AND THE BEASTS.

He sat among the woods; he heard
The sylvan merriment; he saw
The humors of the beast and b1rd,
The pranks of donkey and OF cav,
And in the lion and the frog,
In all the tribes OF swamp and den,
In deer and bare, in stork and log,
Marked the similitudes OF men.
'From these, of these" he cried, 'we come:
Our hearts and brains descend from these;''
And 10, the beasts no more were dumb
But answered out of brakes and trees.
And thus, perckance, their saying ran:
Nay, not from us your folly springs,
o, deeply fallen race OF man,
Bewildered about empty things!
For we have neither hope nor dread,
We look not forward or behind,
We lead the life our fathers led.
We live like clouds. or streams, or wind;
"For we have neither doubt nor faith,
For we are neither bond nor free;
We hear the word that Nature saith,
And nigh to Natures heart are We.
behold, we neither laugh nor weep,
Are well content with everything;
But We would fly that scarce can creep,
And ye would speak, that scarce can sing.
Nay, were there cause for moan or mirth
IT'S we, not you, shotiiG sign CT scorn,
o, latest children Of the earth
Most childish children earth hath borne.'
They spake, but that miShappen slave
Told never of the thing he heard
And unto IL e. their portraits gave
