Representative of THE GA
zETTE was leisurely strolling
along a popular thoroughfare
a few days since he casually
overheard a conversation oc-
curing between a couple
of gentlemen who stood
in front of one of our
most popular clothing estab-
lishments. The conversation
seemed of an animated nature
and, being curious to learn of
its cause, the writer, like all
curious news gatherers, at
once stopped and gazed into
the display windows with
much seeming interest. While
thus engaged he overheard the
following:
Crank, [ think it is utterly
useless and objectionable ex-
travagance for you to order a
suit of clothes from this party
when I can take you to an es-
Enlistment not far distant
and get the same goods with
equally as good a fit at a saw
ing of from 40 to 60 per cent"
Il know, Jack; but l am
so hardto fit that l always pre-
fer having my clothes made to

Well, the place to which I
allude has in stock Hothing

guarantees perfeeFft for the

''For the sakeof curiosity I
will 60 with yen but am sure
Of not eingijlsased."
As the faendsmoved down
the streetAe writer followed
IN their wake, ana 9sOOn saw
them entkr that mamfneth es-
tabishmapt located al 80
Houston Street.
In the course of a half hour
the parties were again seen
upon the street, and the
skeptical one was clad in all
elegantly fitting suit of the
latest fashion. His face was
wreathed in smiles, and as the
reporterpassed them he caught
a few laudatory remarks con-
corning the proprietor of that
godsend to gentlemen, the

GALVESTON, TEX, April Is. - The
second game of the series between the
statesmen and Sand Grabs, while not q
shut out, was a bad beat, the score
at the end of the eighth inning
standing II to 4 in favor of the
Sand Crabs, darkness and rain pre-
venting the ninth inning from being
played. The Statesmen put up a better
game to-day than yesterday, although
they are no match for the heavy sluggers
of the Galveston team. One Of the feat
ures, OF the game was a home run for
Black. The game was witnessed by over
700 people. Offlcial score:

Facts About Horses.

Fort Worth (IeN.l Gazette.
A reporter was in the stables Of Nj. A.
Maupin. q and while there engaged that
gentleman, who is one of the best posted
men on horses in Texas, in a general con.
yersaton about the different kinds and
characters of horses.
"A horse is an intelligent animal gem
orally. said he, but like some men,
some horses have but little brains unless
a horse has brains You cant teach him.
Some horses. like some men, are mean,
and they won't do to fool with. Now look
at that horse there, pointing to tall bay,

which was standing in a stall. You can {
teach that morse anything.

well. | will show you the difference IN
heads, but have a care of his heels. Now.
look at the brute's head, that rounding
nose. that tapering forehead and that
broad full place between his eyes, You
can trust him
Now look at that other animal in the
stall next to HIM That an awfIl good
mare-as true as the sun. In her you can
see breadth and fullness between the eyes
and ears. You couldn't induce that mare
to act mean or hurt anybody. In horse
the eye should be full, and in color hazel
Is good.
Now as to the ear. like small,
Thin ear. and want horse to throw its
head well forward Look out for the brute
that wants to listen to all the conversation
going ON behind him. The horse that
turns back his ears till they almost meet at
the points, take my word for it. is sure to do
something wrong See that straight elegant
face. A horse with a dashing face is coward
w., and cowardly brute is usually vicious.
Then like a square muzzle with large
nostrils to let in plenty of air to the lungs
For the under side of the head a horse
should be well cut under the jowl, with
jawboues broad and wide apart under the
throttle
THE next thing to consider is the build
of the animal Never buy a long legged,
stilty horse. Let him have a short,
straight back and straight rump, and
you've got a gentleman horse, The
withers should be high and the shoulders
well set back and broad, but don't get
them too deep in the chest. The fore leg
| should be short. Give me apretty straight
hind leg with the hook low down, the
pastern joint of good length, and a medi-
um broad foot ! don t like a round,
mulsh foot for it is the case, often the
case, that a horse having them will

but the one that has the points ! have

The BunaIogIs No More.

In recent publication Superintendent
Hornaday, of the National Geological Park,
at Washington, speaking of the extinction
of the buffalo and the proposed methods
for the multiplication of the remnants,
points out the danger of the utter eXtinc-
ton of the species by crossing and in
breedings. The last bunch of this noble
animal over which the government has any
control is comprised in the band Of POO
now protected in the Yellowstone Park,
In 1870 says Professor Hornaday there
were at least G,000,0 600 animals in the great
southern herd and twice as many in the
northern. Men poured cartridges into
Winchesters and dropped the msuspecting
brutes by the 10000 To-day there are

This is the punishment melted out to
those who selfshiy pursue money getting
without giving any attention to their
social duties. On the other hand, the sue
cessful business man who, while diligently
following his occupation, keeps in close
sympathy with his fellow-men, joining
them in social organizations, helping TO
promote the Advancement of mankind and
assisting in works of benevolence and
charity, is a citizen of the world, speaking
all languages. When he shall reach old
age he will not find himself among an
alien people, but friends with abundant
occupation for mind and heart outside of
business. and with contentment, accom-
panying wealth, that is Of real value to
him because he is prepared to make good
use of it.

THE FARM And HOUSEHOLD.
WHERE OUR DREAMS COME TRUE.

Far over some mist hidden river,
And under a wonderful sky
Where the rain never olots out the sunshine,
And our loves never weary or die.
Where the flowers never fade-but in changing
Their magical sweetness renew,
Lies gorihed realm OF enchantment,
The land where onr dreams come true
BY mystical symbols and tokens
We know of that beautiful land
But alas. on the threshold of manhood
The fail clue slipt ont of our handi
And the wild river Yanders between us,
The white gates are hidden from view
And only in sleep we remember
The land where our dreams come true
We shall ind the lost treasure we seek for
Revealed ia that wonderful sphere
All the aims and the dreams of the bygone,
All the good that eluded us here;
The innocent faiths OF our childhood
The one hawless friendship we knew,
Arrayed in our vanished Illusions,
In the land where our dreams come true
We know, in divinest fulflmeut
Our vain hopes are gathered az home:
Inc Jewels we mourn here are boarded
Where the moth and the rust cannot come;
And oft when the sunset is farest
We watch through a rift in the blue,
\ far away glimpse of the glores
OF the land where our dreams come true,
There are eardned the prayers Of our mothers
And the soft cradle song that they sung;
There they move in the midst, with white gar
ments
And faces Immortality young
And out of the mists Of that river
Their sweet hands shall reach us the clue
That leads through the Valley Of Shadow,
To The land where our dreams come truel
So, weeping we lay down our idols,
Aud bury our loves out of sight,
Though We know IN our hearts we shall fine
them
BY and by, in the Mansions of Light;
And the salt tears that fall on their ashes
And blossom in pansy and rue,
Over there shall be lilies immortal,
In the Land Where Our Dreams Come True.
