TOtat...... ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A5, IA 45
An examination of this list will show
that these Democratic defalcatlons haye
all occurred in states where political
frauds have been most fragrant. If there
is no respect for the rights of individuals
the moral sense of the community be-
comes blunted and the rights of the state
are not considered.
1t will be remembered that when the
Republican party in 1885 yielded up its
power after twenty-four years of unin-
terrupted control over the affairs of the
government, the Democrats asserted
that when they got at the books they
would be sure to discover all sorts of
dishonesty. In fact, this was one of
their great campaign cries; and the then
vice presidential democratic candidate
was especially vehiminent in his charges
of fraud upon the treasury of the Re-
publlcans. 1t will also be remembered
that when the books were examined, the
most critical search could only discover a
shortage of two cents, and even this sum
it was afterwards found could not have
been stolen.
The contrast between Republican and
Democratic conduct of funds, state and
national, IS very great. The different
results are due to the different standards
of honesty. A free ballot and fair count
are essential to honesty of adminlstra.

The Life of a Shooting Star.

A small body, perhaps as large as
paving-stone or larger-more often,
perhaps, not as large as a marbles
moving around the sun. Just as a
mighty planet revolves in an ellipse,
so this small object will move round
and round in an ellipse, with the sun
in the focus. There are at the present
moment inconceivable myriads of such
meteors moving in this manner. They
are too small, and too distant for our
telescopes, and we can never see them
except under extraordinary circum-
stances. st the time we see the me-
teor it is usually moving with enor-
nous velocity, so that it often traverses
a distance of more than twenty miles
in a second of time. Such a velocity is
almost impossible near the earth's sur
face, the resistance of the air would
prevent it. Aloft in the emptiness of
space there is no air to resist the me-
teor. 1t may have been moving round
and round the sun for thousands, per-
haps for millions, of years without let
or hinderance; but the supreme mo-
ment arrives, and the meteor perishes
in a streak of splendor. In the course
OF It's WanoeflnSS Ine DOdy comes near
the earth, and within few hundred
miles of the surface, of course, begins
to encounter the surface of the atmos-
phere with which the earth is inclosed.
To body moving with the appalling
velocity of meteor plunge into the
atmosphere is usually fatal. Even
though the upper layers of the air are
excessively attenuated, yet they sud-
denly check the velocity, almost as a
rifle bullet would be checked when
fired into water. As the meteor rushes
through the atmosphere the friction of
the air warns it's surface. Gradually
it becomes red hot, then white hot, and
is finally driven off into vapor with a
brilliant light, while we on the earth,
100 or 200 miles below, exclaim:
s'Oh. look. there is a shooting star''

A Badly Frightened Horse.

had the opportunity of observing
the effect on a horse when ridden near
a mountain lion, says writer in
Chambers Magazine.
1t was late one night in autumn. |
was riding along a lonely mountain
road. and when only about two miles
from the town or mining camp heard
the cry of the mountain lion.
Ny horse at once showed fear and
refused to move forward. His trem-
bling was so intense that he fairly
shook me in the saddle. To whip and
spur he paid no attention.
Indeed it was only by the strongest
effort that l could prevent him from
turning and boiling in the direction we
had come from. A crashing in the
brush short distance in advance of me
increased the horses fear and restive-
ness to such an extent as almost to I'M
horse me.
We both knew full well what that
crashing meant, but l also was well
satisfied that the beast would not
trouble US because l knew that only a
short distance across the hill was a
slaughter house, whittier | judged the
terrortof mountains was journeying.
Although quite cold night, l found
my horse sweating as freely because of
his fright as if | had ridden on a dead
run for miles.

Tale of a War Horse.

An officer of experience, writing on
the behavior of horses in battle, SAYS:
When it comes to battle a horse seems
to know everything that is going on;
but he does his duty nobly, and seems
to be in his element. He enters into
the spirit of the battle like a human
being. He shows no fear of death, and
it is singular that if his mate is shot
down he will turn to look at him and
seem pleased. A horse in my battery
was once struck by a piece of shell.
which split his skull, so that one side
was loose. The driver turned him
loose, but he walked up by the side of
the gun and watched the firing. and
when a shot was fired would look away
in the direction of the enemy, as if to
see the effect of the shot. When shell
would burst near by he would calmly
turn and look at it. When he saw his
own team going back for ammunition
he ran back to his own place and gal
Hoped back to the caisson with the
rest. When the Lieutenant pushed
him aside to put in another horse, he
looked at the other one sorrowfully
while he was being harnessed up, and
when he seemed to realize that there
was no further use for him he lay
down and died. The Lieutenant strong
" asserted that he died of a broken
heart.-COurt Journal
