A GOOD ONE ON BILLY.

How ex.Sher1ff Rowland Was
Fooled by One-Eyed Horse.
For many years Mr.. Tom Goss, the
brick manufacturer, has been in the
habit of sending to ex-sheriff Rowland's
place, on the Puente, his worn-down
horses, to recuperate on the fine pas
lures OF that gentleman's ranch. A
short time ago Mr.. Goss sent up quite q
number of his work.horses. Among
them was a fine large sorrel, but which.
only had one eye and was somewhat
sprung in the knees. Rowland was In
the habit of working the Goss horses ON
the ranch when occasion needed, and,
indeed, their owner desired that he
should u5o them aS mucn ss pUysiibiS
while there, 60 that they would not be-
come too wild.
1t 80 happened, about the time the
last lot OF horses were sent to the ranch
by Mr.. Goss, that there was good deal
OF plowing to be done in the vineyard.
and Mr.. Rowland told the Chinaman to
hitch up the sorrel and break up the,
soil between the vines. The Chinaman
nad not been gone great while when
he returned and made great complaint
about the horse.
Him no good. He no sable plow.
You tell him 60 ahead, he 20 round.
Hit him willie whip, no makee bittel
diffilance-go lound allie same ale time.
Heap. bleak vine; heap emash glape.
Slollel horse big fool-no sable pull
stlaight longl"
Mr.. Rowland thought that perhaps the
Chinaman got on the wrong side Of the
sorrel's blind eye, 80 he thought he
would show John how much better it was
to nave brain power than merlnphysical
capacity. 30 he went out The vine-
yard where the Chinaman had left the
horse, and said to him, "John, you look
at me and see how will make him 20
all right" Rowland showed himself to
the sorrel on his good-eye side, patted
him, talked to him, and then took the
reins and seized the handles of the plow.
Leaning as far out as he could toward
the horses good side, he gave him q
touch of the whip and halloed to him to
"get upW Sorrel at once launched out
in circle, and made sad havoc with the
vines until brought to q stand by Row.
land.
A few days after this Mr.. Goss hap
pened to visit the Puente, and went out
with Billy to look at his stock. The lat
ter pointed out the sorrel and told Goss
about his crazy performance in the vine
yard. Tom can generally keek grave
face in front of the most explosive Joke;
but this was too much for him.
"Why, Billy" said he, "that's the
horse use in my mud mill, which he
has been turning for years. He's 30 used
to going round that he's forgotten how to
travel straight ahead"

Explaining the Electric Cars.

Next to the great show itself probably
the chief attraction to the country people
who were i'm the city Thursday was the
electric car.
This is not surprising one rcmem-
beers how often persons who see the cars
every day turn to look at them and how
few understand them. II was amusing,
however. to watch those who were seeing
them for the first time, and some of the
questions asked would have puzzled a
Philadelphia lawyer to answer.
