in favor Of compelling every Indian child OF

Best Fodder for Cavalry Horses.

A series of experiments, made with o
view of discovering the best fodder for
French cavalry horses, has established
the fact that straw and oats are, in rea-
son, preferable to hay. 1t appeared
that when the ration of hay was reduced,
and that of the straw and oats proper
tionately increased, the staying power of
the horses was much improved; they
swcated less and bore fatigue better.
These experiments have excited much
interest in military circles, and it is very
generally recognized that there is impera-
tive need for a complete and careful study
of the question of cavalry forage.

bile, Ala, Swept by Flames.
A fire in the cotton gin and shipping dis
trict of Mobile, Ala, destroyed eleven steam
ers and over a million dollars worth of cot
ton gins, wharves and shipping depots.
The local fire department was incapable of
doing any effective work to check the spread
of the flames. For a time all the sailing
vessels in the harbor were threatened. The
wind carried sparks great distance, and
many small fires were started where cotton
was exposed.
The fire started in a shingle mill near thu
river front just outside the northern bound
airy of the city limits.
In Goodman's mill, near the shingle fac
tory there were stored about nine
hundreds bales of cotton. They wers
soon ablaze, and the sparks from the
cotton carried by the wind next COM
municated the flames to Browns ware
house, and running back to Magnolia street
to thS southwest Of the Mobile mills and to
the wharf front.
The Hames swept on down the wharf front
of the city and before the fire was finally
checked eleven vessels had been burned.
The loss will amount to over a million dol
lars
