a Horses Broken Heart.

The emotional life of the horse is re-
markaole. There are instances on REQ
ord where the death of the horse has
been traced directly to grief. One in
stance is called to mind which occurred
more than twenty years ago. A circus
had been performing in the little town
of Unionville, Pa, when one of the
trained horses sprained one Of his legs
SO that he could not travel. He was
taken to the hotel and put in box stall.
The leg was bandaged and he was made
as comfortable as possible. He ate his
food and was apparently contented until
about midnight, when the circus began
moving out of town. Then he became
restless and tramped and whined. AS
the caravan moved past the hotel he
seemed to realize that he was being de-
serted, and his anxiety and distress be-
came pitifuL He would stand with his
ears pricked i'll an attitude OF intense
listening, and then as his ears caught the
sounds Of the retiring wagons he would
rush, as best he could with his injured
leg, from one side of the stall to the
otheE, pushing at the door with his nose
ard ma king every efoFs 70 escape.
20 The stablemar, who was a stranger to
him, tried to soothe him, but to no. pur-
pose. he would not be comforted. Long
after all sounds of the CIRCUS had ceased
his agitation continued. The sweat
poured from him in streams and he quiz
cred in every part of his body. Finally
the stableman went to the house, woke
up the proprietor and told him be be-
lieved thehorse would.die if some Of the
circus horses were not brought back to
keep him company. at about daylight
the proprietor mounted horse and rode
after the circus. He overlook it ten or
twelve miles away and the groom who
had charge of the injured horse returned
with him When they reached the stable
the horse was dead. The stableman said
that he remained for nearly an hour per-
fectly still and with every sense appar.
emily strained to the utmost tension and
then, without making sign, fell and
died with scarcely struggle.-Western
Sportsman.

HUMAN NATURE ON THE HIGHWAY

II was on nlgnWay running
into city in Pennsylvania. One
man was driving out with load of
brick, and the other driving in with
LOAD of hay. Both attempted to
get the best side Of a mud hole, and
as consequence their tea MS came
head to head and stopped.
''You, there." shouted the brick
man.
'You there YOURSELF replied the
other.
"Going to turn out?''
"No.
Neither will t.
'1'll stay here whole year first"
And I'll stay ten of them!"
Both proceeded to make them.
selves as comfortable as possible,
and to appear careless and indifer-
ent as to results. Other travellers
took the other side of the hole, and
passed them by, SO it became
question of endurance. At the end
of an hour the hay man said:
III there's any one man / hate
above another it's human hog"
''Then it's wonder you havn't
hated yourself to deathp' was the
retort, and silence reigned supreme
again. Another hour passed, and
the brick man observed
"I'm going to sleep, and l hope
you won't disturb me-
''Just what ! was going to ask of
you, replied the hay man.
Both pretended to sleep, but at the
end of the third hour the hay man
called out:
"Say. You are a cussed mean
man!''
"The same to you!.''
Where are you going with those
brick?"
-Four miles out, to John Day
toms. Where are going with your
hay?''
''To Sinners brick yard
''Say, man, I'm John Dayton my
self, and I've traded this hay for
brickr'
''Well, I'm young Stiner, and l
was driving the first load out"
''What fools we are. Here, take
all the road"
''No-no-let me turn out"
E'I'll turn"
''No-let me-
And in their haste to do the po-
lite thing the load of hay was upset
and wheel taken of the brick
wagon, New York Sun.

At Atlanta Hon. Primus w
Jones, of Dougherty county, was
talking about how he managed to
raise the FIRST bale of cotton every
year. 81 plant my cotton early in
February, said he. ssThis is a
good deal earlier than my neighbors
plant theirs. Then I follow the in
tensive system Of farming. + man

That's the reason 1 got the first
bale of Georgia cotton" GLOW
much land do you go over to get
that bale?" ooh, about 100 acres,
and didn't wait for the bolls to
open. I had to pry some Of them
open to make up the bale" "Every
year, = said the colonel, ''my friends
doubt my word, just little, you
know, about the first bale. This
year, as got it out several days
earlier than usual, I had some burrs
sent up to prove that the staple
had been picked from them this
season." His neighbors say that
Mr.. Jones is very successful farm
er. Last year he raised twenty-five
bales of cotton to the mule. This
year he expects to raise forty.

THE SUN.
FOR 1889
And for tine Democracy.

The sun believes that the campaign for the
election of a Democratic Congress in 1890 and a
Democratic President in 1892 should begin on or
about the fourth of next March. THE SUN will
be on hand at the beginning and until the end Of
the most interesting and important political con-
hict since the war, doing its honest utmost as
ever, to secure the triumph Of the Democratic
party and the permanent supremacy Of the prin-
ciples held by Jefferson, Jackson and Tilden.
The great fact of the year is the return TO abso-
lutte power OF the common enemy of all good
Democrats-the political organization for whose
overthrow THE Sun fought at the front for fifteen
years, the memorable years of Grant and the
Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and Arthur.
1t is the same old enemy that Democrats now
confront, and he viii be intrenched in the same
brave and hopeful fighting. Do you not believe
with THE SUN that the thing can be done again?
Wait and see
The hope Of the Democracy is in the loyal
efforts of a united press, cherishing no memories
Of past differences in nOn-essentials, forgetting
everything but the lessons Of experience, and
that! victory is a duty.
Probably you know The SUN already as a
newspaper which gets all the news and prints it
in incomparably interesting shape; which
chronicles facts as they occur and tells the truth
about men and events with absolute fearlessness
making the completest and most entertaining
journal published anywhere on earth; and which
chasers at two cents per copy---On Sundays four

SEALS FROM BEHRING SEA
Two Canadian sesiers Reach Victoria
With Big Loads OF skins.

san Francisco, sept. PA Victoria
British Columbia) dispatch says: The
schooner Beatrice, Capt. Mcneil, ar
rived from Behring Sea last night with
1900 sealskins. The Beatrice left Behr-
ing Sea August 2s. The captain re-
ported that ne never once sighted the
United States revenue cutter Rush. On
August ls he lost three canoes, each
containing two Indians, who were un-
able 10 find their way back 10 the ship
from the fishing grounds on account OF
fog. The captain remained IN the
neighborhood five days burning lights,
but nothing was seen of them. The
captain thinks. however, they were
picked by a schooner which passed
about that time.
The schooner Maggie Mac arrived
last night from Behring Sea with 1890
sealskins. She was overhauled by the
Rush after three hours chase, Aug
ust 27, but Lieutenant Tuttle allowed
ner 10 proceed after examining her

COMPTROLLER LACEY.
He Says a Substitute for the National
Bond Must BE Found.

WAsHNGroS, Sept. 22.-''Whateyer
may have been the objection of some
people TO the National Banking Sys-
tem," says Comptroller Lacey, "those
objections have about vanished. In
my opinion, the system has come to
stay, az least until some thing better
IS invented to take its place. The near
approach of the time when our Nation
al debt falls due suggests, however, the
idea that if the currency feature of the
system Is TO be perpetuated,
we shall be compelled to find
some substitute for the Governm ent
bonds now pledged for the redemption
of circulating notes. The present nigh
cost OF bonds deters many from enter
ing the system, and banks already or
ganlzed would, a a rule, gladly sur
render the right 10 issue notes. They
are, however, sanguine of relief through
action OF the present Congress. Not
withstanding these uncertainties and
disc0uagemcnts. ls5 new banks have
been organized during the twelve
months ended September /, $50 If it
were not for the enforced purchase of
bonds the rate of increase OF new banks
would be at least doubled"
