A Lively Horse.

Americas (Ga.) Times.
Arthur Simons has Texas pony on
his farm at Chokee whose ability as a
jumper cannot be surpassed. He is a
diminutive specimen of that breed Of
horsefesh, and day or two ago was
put into big box or crate for shipment
to Americas, there being no stock car
convenient at the time. The pony and
box were placed upon fiat car and the
train pulled out. The little sample of
Texas cyclone soon got tired of his
close quarters, and while the train was
running at speed of thirty miles an
hour, kicked the box into cooked hat
and made leap for liberty. He struck
terra frma right side up with care, and
when the train men came back to view
his cold remains the said remains were
quietly nibblIng at keg of iron spikes
on the side of the road, and it took four
men and boy an hour to run down and
capture him. At least that is what the
conductor said.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 9.-The
game of ball that was scheduled for to-
morrow was played to-day on account OF
the beginning of the races and Derby
day tomorrow. There was very slim
attendance, as the game was played
against the rival attractions of big cir
Gus and the national encampment clos
ing day. The Kansas City team started
out as if they would carry everything
before them. but in the seventh
inning. when they had a score
of eleven to three LII their favor,
they let down and began making the
worst lot of errors and chump plays
that have ever been seen in this city.
The st. Paul team at once took adyan-
tage of the break and scored nine more
runs in three innings and won the game
then and there. 1t would be difficult to
give an account of just how those runs
were made, as it seemed to be from
combination of circumstances. and then
the Blues entirely lost heart and let
things slide without care whether
they won the game or not. Score:

Electric Storms.

Pixies Peak is celebrated for its cleo
rical storms. According to the meteor
illogical observations reported from
there the storms only occur when the
air IS moist; the most favorable condi-
ton is during the time light, soft
snow is falling. When the hands are
held up sparks emanate from the
tips of the finger& At such
times, with considerable wind,
the thermometer cups look like a
circle of fire. Each flake of snow as it
alights on mules or burro's back
gives a spark like frebug. The sta
ton was once struck by lightning. The
electricity came down the thermometer
rod, following along the wire running
to the battery. Every place the wire
crossed nail the head of the nail was
fused, and the wire melted at the same
point.

NO QUARTER FOR NIHILIsTs.
Bismarck Has No Use for Gear
Killers.

LONDON, June "a correspondents of
the Daily Telegraph has been accorded
an interview by Prince Bismarck. The
prince declared that no concession to
the nihilists was possible. Over-educa-
ton had led to much dissatisfac-
ton and disappointment in Germany,
but in Russia it had led to disaffection
and conspiracy, There were ten times
as many people educated for the higher
walks as there were places to fill. Fur
Their, education was making pedantic
theorists and Missionaries, unfit for con-
stftutienaI government. 1t would be
madness to put such men in author
ity. Russians do not know yet
what they want; they must there
fore be ruled with a rod of iron.
Referring to the labor question, the
prince ridiculed the idea that werkmen
would ever be eontented, because, he
said, the rich are never contented. He
spoke strongly against any dictation as
to hours of labor and against the usurp-
ing of the righttul authority of parents
over their children. Prince Bismarck
said that Chancellor Won Caprivi was
perfect gentleman. He praised Emperor
William, and said he was hopeful for
the future.

Old Newspapers in the Household.

The real value of old newspapers
about house is fully comprehen6ed by
but few. Many people, in wrapping up
WOODEN goods to put away for the sum-
mer-a something that must soon be
done for the coming seaSon-use clear
brown paper. Old newspapers are far
preferable, for the ink OH them has
been observed to be very obnoxious to
moths, insects. etc. A great benefit can
also be derived by placing layer
of old newspapers upon the car
pet paper spread under carpets,
as it is preventive to encroach-
ments by vermin, which is so often the
case. Another useful attribute of paper
not generally known is for preserving
ice in pitcher of water. Fill the
pitcher with ice and water and place in
the center piece of paper; then
gather the paper up together at the top
and twist the ends tightly together.
placing strong rubber band around
the coil to exclude the air. A pitcher
of ice-water treated in this manner has
been known to stand over night with
scarcely a perceptible melting of the
ice.

NO HOPE OF ADJUSTMENT.
Lake and Rail Rates in a Chaotic
Shape.

BUFFALO, N. Y, June 9.-There
seems to be no hope of an adjustments of
east bound lake and rail rates for the
present. The propeller line managers
here had consultation to-day
and concluded that it was useless
to make any further attempts to restore
rates at present. Very badly cut rates
have been in order for some time, and
the worst of it is that nobody adheres
to any rates. The shippers are at sea
and would prefer higher rate if it was
something they could depend on. The
Lake Shore road is the main obstacle in
the way of an understanding, accordi ng
to report, and the Lehigh Valley is also
a disturbing element.
