The barbed-wire patents, which
have netted fortunes to their owners.
have an interesting history. The first
patents were issued to a man named
Kelly, living down east. About two
years later farmer at De Kalb. Ill.
conceived the idea of keeping his un-
ruly cattle i'll the pasture by putting
short barbs on a wire and then twist
ing it with a plain wire. This is known
IN the market as the Gidden wire. be-
ing named after its inventor. Joseph
+. Gidden. One day, while he was
experimenting with it, a neighbor 90
ing by, shouted: "Joe, you better be
out harrerin' in your oats instead of
foolin' away your time with patents"
Gldden thought otherwise, and in less
than two years received a bonus of
S6O,OOO with the guarantee of a roval-
ty on all made under his patents. For
one year his royalties exceeded
Sl74.000.

That is a queer story told of E. l..
Harper, the wrecker of the Fidelity
bank of Cincinnati. 1t is to the effect
that he has been doing a profitable
iron business to the tune of S35O.OOO a
year while serving his sentence in the
Ohio penitentiary. Through the eff
forts of his faithful wife, a joint stock
company was formed, and, presum-
ably through the collusion of some of
the prison officials, Harper was al
lowed to direct the movements of this
company by telegraph, thus enabling
1T to make money when other men in
the iron business were actually run
ming behind. 1t is a striking illustra-
ton of what a smart" man with
money can do even when he is dead
IN the eyes of the law. In the mean
while the discovery of this little ar
rangement will be likely to arrest the
efforts to obtain a pardon for this dis
tinguished criminal.

FRED GRANTS sTEED.

How NIazeppa Carried Its Rider Through
the Movement of the Drill.
The following story is told by Fred.
Grant: In his last year at West Point
he held the position of Captain of
Artillery. One day the visiting officer,
who happened to be his father, General
Grant, held an inspection and drill.
After the cadets had assembled on the
parade ground it was decided to give
the commands by bugle call. The
officers would then deliver them by
word of mouth to the men. Fred
Grant had notoriously bad ear for
music. He had never been able to
master a single tune. and. worse still,
had no idea of time. When the an
nouncement of the mode of giving the
orders was made he rushed up to a
comrade and said:
''Great goodness! what shall do?
can't tell the difference between the
charge and the retreat.
His friend advised him to change his
horse for Mazeppa, horse of one OF
the sergeants. She would carry him
through, He hastily did so, and
watched every movement of his animal
during the ensuing evolutions. When
the bugle sounded forward" the
knowing animal advanced; and the
command was accordingly given to the
men. When the call of shalt' came,
Mazeppa stood like a rock, and the
proper order was issued by the officer.
In this way, the horse by its ear for
music, told its rider the order of the
day and carried him safely through the
complicated movements of the drill

A Rich Field for the ArcheOlOgist In
Southern Colorado.

Rich Field for the Arch@OlOgist In
Southern Colorado.
One of the most attractive portions
of Colorado, if not in the entire West,
is that part of the State in which are
found the cliff dwellings of long ex-
tinct race. The district in which these
ruins are located covers an area of
nearly six thousand square miles,
chiefly in Colorado, but which includes
narrow belts in the adjacent territories
of New Mexico, Utah and Arizona.
The ruins of this region, like most
others of the extreme West and South,
are the remnants in a great measure of
stone structures. 1t is evident, how
ever, that great portion of the viii
lagos and dwellings of the lowlands
which comprise this district have been
of material other than stone, frequently
doubtless, of rubble and adobe COM
bined.
The cliff houses conform in shape to
the floor of the niche or shelf on which
they are built. They are of firm, neat

are attached or cemented to the cliffs
is simply marvellous. Their construc-
tion has cost a great deal of labor, the
rock and mortar of which they are built
having been brought hundreds of feet
up the most precipitous places. They
have much more modern look than
the valley and cave remains, and are
probably in general more recent, be-
longing rather to the close than to the
earlier parts of long period of occu-
patton.
1t seems probable that a rich reward
awaits the fortunate archaologist who
shall be able to thoroughly investigate
the historical records that lie buried in
the masses of ruins. the unexplored
caves, and the still mysterious burial
places of the Northwest. But it is quite
improbable that any certain light will
ever be thrown on the origin of this
curious race or its history. Cincinnati

THE LITTLE HIGH-cHAIR.
A Bit of Life Disclosed by q Scene In =
Auction Room.

A Bit of Life Disclosed by Scene In an
Auction Room.
There was an auction at one of the
downtown auction houses recently.
A pale, sad-faced woman, in plain
calico gown, stood in a crowd. The
loud-voiced auctioneer finally came to
a lot of plain and some ewhat worn
furniture 1t had belonged to the plain
woman, and was being sold to satisfy
the mortgage on it. One by one the
articles were sold, the old bureau to
one, the easy rocker to another, and q
beadstead to third.
Finally the auctioneer hauled out
child's high chair, 1t was old and
riclxety, and as the auctioneer held it
up everybody laughed-everybody ex-
coping the pale-faced woman. A tear
trickled down her cheek. The auc-
tioneer saw it, and somehow a lump
seemed to come up his throat, and his
gruff voice grew soft. He remem-
bered little high-chair at home, and
how it had once filed his life with sun
shine.
1t was empty now. The baby laugh,
the two little hands that were once
held out to greet ''papa" from that
high-chair were gone forever. He saw
the pale-faced woman's piteous looks,
and knew what it meant; knew that in
her eye the little rickety high-chair
was more precious than if it had been
made of gold and studded with dia-
monds. In imagination he could see
the little dimpled cherub which it once
held; could see the chubby little fist
grasping the tin rattle-box and pound
ing the chair full of hicks; could see
the little feet which had rubbed the
paint off the legs; could hear the crow
ing and laughing in glee-and now,
the little high-chair was empty.
He knew there was an aching void in
the pale-faced woman's heart; there
was in his own. Somehow the day
may come and go, but you never gel
over it. There is no one to dress in
the morning, no one to put to bed al
night. Don't laugh" said the auc
tioneer, softly, as somebody facetiously
offered ten cents; "many of you have
little empty high-chairs at home which
money would not tempt you to par
with" Then he handed the clerk {
bill out of his own pocket and re
marked, "Sold to the lady right there,
and as the pale-faced woman walked
out with the little high-chair claspeG
in her arms, and tears streaming dowr
her cheeks, the crowd stood back re
spectfully, and there was suspicious
moisture in the eyes of the man wht
had bid ten cents.-Detroit Free Press

HoMELY BUT SOUND.

What Young Ladies' Should Avoid and
What They Should Cultivate.
The principles which underline good

her own youthful countrywomen:
WHAT TO AVOID.
A loud, weak, affected, whining.
harsh or shrill tone of voice.
Extravaganza in conversation-such
phrases as lawfully this, ''beastly
that, "loads of time, don't you know"
''hate" for dislike." etc.
Sudden exciamations of annoyance,
surprise and ioy-often dangerously
approaching to ''female swearing las
''bother!'' ''gracious!' '.how jollyr'
Yawning when listening to any one.
Talking on family matters even to
bosom friends.
Attempting any vocal or instrumental
piece of music that you can not exc
cute with ease.
Crossing your letters.
Making a short, sharp nod with the
