The market at Minnesota Transfer yester-

by the Minneapolis Provision company at

Saturday at 81. Good cattle are firmer, but
there is not likely to be any improvement
in poor stock al present. Light hogs are in
strong demand and will bring the top Of the

Daisy pereiyai. the promising and attrac-
tive colt of Mr.. W. W. Percivsl. Of this city
of whose antecedents and prodigious growth
mention has heretofore been made in these
columns, makes bsr second formal bid for
public appreciation and the first prize for
yesrlings to be shown to halter At the Maine
State Agricultural Society's fair At Lewiston,
whittier she was taken this morning by her
owner. Desiring that the colt should make
rs good showing as possible at the exhibit
ton, Mr.. Percivsl took her from pasture
three weeks ago. at which time she weighed
exactly 1000 pounds. Curious to know what
progress the colt WAS making at the end Of
nine days the animal was again weighed and
showed an increase Of forty pounds. Mr.. p.
inspired by the possibility Of making her
come up to 100 by exhibition time, pushed
on the tissue making process with an un-
sparng hand, and on Saturday last, when the
colt ~ss l6 month, AMI 10 days old. had the
qualification of seeing Daisy tip the beam Al
HOS pounds. = gain of l05 pounds in three
wssks-35 pounds a week, or i've pounds q
day. Her menu contained three quarts Of
fresh milk and twelve quarts Of oats daily
literally supplemented with numerous extras
in the shape Of bread, cake, apples and good
English hay. Though not broken to harness
she is ~ gentle and tractable A. LIANT
through constant petting and fondling BY
members Of the family, between whom Z
strong attachment has sprung up Daisy is
the true type and embodiment Of perfect
horse, whose round and ample proportions
and magnificent carriage will certainly wiz
the admiration Of all who see her.

A SOCIAL Session.

Fun-that's what everybody thought who
went to see the antics of the Postage Stamp
company in Social Session Saturday even
ing. The company 10 well known In our
city, having appeared in the original Postage
Stamp last season and the hall was we'll
packed 10 welcome them In the new role.
Taey certainly deserved the large audience
and they played in the strong hearty manner
which charaeterizes true artists. The ludi-
crous situations which were numerous and
we'll arranged evoked almost continued
laughter and kept the audience in the best Of
spirits during the entire evening. IL is u
mirth provoker in the truest sense of the
word. The plot, though not deep. is excel
lent and gives good opportunity to tuck in
the funny business which characterizes the
play.
The musical features Of the programme
were most excellent. The overture, "A
Wedding on the Plantation BY the COM
pany's orchestra was heartily applauded ss
were ais, the cornet solo by Nickerson and
the xylophone sol, by Willett. The COM
paoy is one of the finest of the kind which
ever visited Augusta and should they come
aga would be sure of a good house.

Coffee in Brazil.

Much of the coffee of Brazil is carried by
rail from the vicinity of the great plantations
to market, but in other parts of South Amer
lea it is carried ON the backs of mules and
donkeys, at the rate of two sacks each by the
former and one by the latter. The animals
go along the usually rough and tortuous
paths in long lines, driven by attendants
mounted and on foot; and as the donkeys
have habit of lodging aside and losing
themselves in the dense underground of the
waysides, they are usually strung together
by ropes. 1t is the coffee of such regions in
Venezuela and Colombia, of small, blush
green berry, that is so good as to be sold in
the United States and England for Mocha,
and Java when no Java is available When
not pound of the former passes to market
through the Straits of Gibraltar in half a
century, and if it did would sell for dollars
instead of dimes; and when Java is usually
worth So to so cents pound in the principal
market for it, Amsterdam. In five years
Great Britain imported only u, 12s pounds of
Java to 124,O42,0l2 pounds of Brazilian

you begin to think it only prudent to get a
little farther away, when a wheelmau whiz-
yes through the narrow opening at such risk
to his life and limb that your heart loses a
beat or two as you look at him. Almost

as here Strangers marvel at them, residents
protest. but day and night the streets TEEN
with flying wheels.
Washington riders are fearless for the same
reason that Washington riders are numerous
The smooth asphalt pavements are like floors
Here the rider neither tires nor is made
afraid. Self confidence becomes habitual,
and away he goes at speed of twenty miles
an hour. Even the women here ride boldly
for Washington women have taken to the
wheel in greater numbers than their sisters
Of any other city. There are said to be five
hundred women riders in the capital, many
of them bold and 1eet-no more afraid to lift
feet from pedals and go down hill like race
horses, or to dart in and out among the ka-

thoroughfare than their brothers and hus

they make, with estray locks flying, ribbon

Times Mhirligig.

Lately a former congressman, unmindful
of his reduced estate, was gently turned from
the door of the cabinet room. He had been a
man of prominence and wide influence even
fame, in certain speciality of public work.
All doors had been open to him, and all haRds
extended in welcome Now he is a place
seeker, and by no means assured of success.
His funds are low, too, and on the top of
frequent disappointments came this last blow
TO his pride. He turned from the doorkeeper,
walked down the stairs and out the door of
the mansion with tears in his eyes. Such are
the fortunes of politics and the reminders of
failure which official life presses upon a dis
appointed one in this tomb of hopes, this
whited sepulcher of ambitions and fond ex-
pecta.ions.-Western Letter.
