Horses That Like Human Flesh.

fhere appeared in the papers some
time ago story of a horse which, stand
ing in Toronto street, mistook for new
mown hay the blonde hair of a young
lady on the sidewalk, seized it in it's wa
tering mouth and was rewarded by a
blow between the eyes which could have
been possible only in the days of roomy
garments. One Of the beauties Of that
story was that it was rigidly true. al
though the name of the horses owner
was withheld. But since then either the
same animal or full brother by the
same sire and out Of the same dam has
been making a name for himself as a
luncher off melton coat sleeves, sealszin
caps, bearsl1in boas and tweed capotes.
He is a pretty little roam beast, owned
by Larry Cosgrave, and very swapping
turtle in harness. He stood hitched to a
little cutter in front of the Bank of Com
merce and had five minutes of solid en-.
joyment, during which time he nearly
pulled the arm out of an advertising
agent. The arm looks as if it had been
vaccinated. But Larry Cosgrave's horse
is not the only one in the city that has
fallen into evil ways. It is a common
thing to see these ferocious animals
sprawled half way across the sidewalk,
seeking whom they may devour.-To-
ronto News.

Dangerous Lending.

An American who is in London for
several months every year returned from
one trip with handsome umbrella, on
the silver knob of which was engraved
complicated nonogram-the gentle
mans initials were H. A. B. One day a
friend took up the umbrella, and after
squirting at the knob for several min
utes said: "This is rather queer mono
gram on your umbrella, Mr.. -. !
can see the A and B all right, but for
the life of me l can't find the H."
"Why," responded the owner quickly,
"I lent the umbrella to an Englishman
just before left London, and I presume
he dropped the H?'--San Francisco Ar

Bad Form.

This Oxford university expression is
by many considered slang which it is
"bad form" to use. But is it not really
an old and somewhat classical phrase?
Thus Archbishop Laud wrote to the
vice chancellor at Oxford under date
Feb. 20, 1889: "Sir-I am informed
that the masters. many of them, sit bare
at st. Marie's, having their hats there
and not their caps, rather choosing to
sit bare than to keep form, and then
80 soon as they come out of the church
they are quite out of form all along the
streets" etc.-Notes and Queries.

Effects of African Arrow Poison.

Ehects OF African Arrow Poison.
1t has been conjectured that the fatal
effects of African arrow poison are moi
always due entirely to the poison itself
and with view of determining how fal
fear and other influences enter into the
results of its exhibition a series of ex
periments in inoculating the lower ami
mails has been proposed. One of the
poisons with which the arrows of the
Africans are smearedis dark substance
like pitch. 1t is strong enough to kill
elephants, and is considered SO danger.
GUS that its preparation is not allowed in
the villages, but is carried on in the
bush, where also the arrows are smeared.
The virulence of the poison is remark
able; faintness, palpitation Of the heart,
nausea, pailor and the breaking out of
beads of perspiration all over the body
follow with extraordinary promptness,
and death ensues.
One of Stanley's men is said to have
died within one minute from mere pin
hole puncture in the right arm and right
breast; another man died within an hour
and quarter after being shot; and a
woman died during the time she was
carried distance Of a hundred PAGES.
The activity of the poison seems to de-
pend on its freshness. The treatment
adopted was to administer an emetic, to
suck the wound, syringe it, and inject a
strong solution of carbonate of ammonia.
The carbonate of ammonia injection
seems to have been wonderful antidote
if it could be administered promptly
enough.-New York Commercial Adver-

A Plqa for IndiTerence.

A little Indifference to ones self, to
ones food, ones personal appearance,
clothes, and even ones mental and moral
condition, is a wonderful aid in life.
When I refer to indifference to ones
moral condition I do not, of course,
wish to be an advocate of license; but I
do protest that it is well, having done
ones duty to the best of ones ability, to
await the issue with tranquility.-All

MORNING. APPEAL
NOVEMBER 7
Not Admitted to the Mail.

Yesterday morning the Post
master rejected from the mail the
edition OF the News containing a
local item relative to the cashine
of Louisiana ticket. 1t
strikes the APPEAL that the law
is going long way out Of it's lati-
tude when a paper is denied the
mails when it merely alludes to
--- in a local item. Mr.. Rod
man says that the instructions to
him are so comprehensive and ex-
plicit that the word l--y is al
most prohibited. Therefore in
writing we aim to be on the safe
side. 1t is little funny, however,
that the first paper stopped for in
fringing the anti---la law should
be backed by a well known anti
- bowler of years ago. We
still insist, however, that no Gov
eminent has right to restrict the
liberty of the press TO tho extent
indicated by the Postmaster's ac-
ton OF yesterday. The law should
be repealed. Last evening Mr..
Rodman after a more caref III
reading of the law, held that
papers did not violate the law I'M
less favoring these gambling con-
Germs.

worlds arts and industries is assured we s'''.
have left the prime question OF prepafauo" AZ
Chicago. On this point great anxiety has pee"
felt. but close observers of the work Oh con-
structon are now convinced that the buildings
will be practically finished by the time that they
are needed for the reception OF exhioi's' no
ornamental part of the undertaking. ihc'uuu's
the LAYING out and establishment OF the grouhus'
NAV still be incomplete when the Far opens
But IL is inevitable perhaps, though unfortunate
that these finishing touches should be beiated
certainly it has been the rule with lnternauoha'
expostions. Operations began at Chicago III
way to suggest solcitude for the result anu
progress was extremely slow at first; Dut ho-
BODY has ever accused our Western brethren OF
a predisposition to slothfuness or an incapacity
to "put things through" and it is only JUST u
say that since they settled down to business they
have accomplished wonders
The financial problem alone, therefore, seems
to be still unsolved. We have already expressed
the belief that Chicago would never have won the
Fair if her representatives at washington hau
conceded that it would be necessary to ask Con-
gress for great loan from the National treas
uly. 1t Is charitable to assume that they did moi
suspect the necessity would arise But 1t Is
now acknowledged by the Board of Directors
that an appropriation of at least five millions
is indispensable, and the National Commission
is said to acquiesce in that conclusion. VIII
Congress accede? That is question which II
is easier to ask than to answer. 1t is exceed
ingly unfortunate that prompt and favorable
answer is essential to the success OF the Far
but il a National loan is the only way OF escape
from a National disaster 1t will have to be made.

NEW- YORK 1T CUIC4GO.

The Legislature will have at least enc impor-
tant question to discuss and settle at the coming
session with which partisan influences and con-
sderatons ought not to interfere. The nature
and extent of New-Yorks contribution to the
Worlds Fair should be determined without re-
gard to past dissensons or future political pos
sibilities. An interesting debate representing
and developing different opinions and estimates
there will and ought to be, but there is no Occa-
sion for revival of animosities 4 frank and
fair discussion and prompt settlement will pro-
mote the welfare and the credit of the State.
Whatever doubts have existed heretofore as to
the success of the Exposition the prospects are
now highly favorable. 1t is the belief of those
best qualified to judge that the Columbus Fair
will not fall below any Of its predecessors in
magnitude or general excellence. This is not the
opinion merely of Chicago o. exclusively of
Americans The representatives of public and
private interests abroad are pledging their ener-
getic support in confident expectation of a vast
and superb display and substantial reward.
Foreign Governments and peoples have shown
an exceedingly gratifying interest in the under
taking, and are preparing to cooperate heartily
and generously with our own citizens. In spite
of political and industrial complications in other
countries, in spite even OF some natural jealouses
and resentments, the attitude of the world toward
this enterprise is friendly and helpful. Such
opposition or antagonism as the Fair has en-
countered, including the adverse action of the
Manchester Chamber of Commerce is not enough
to cloud the prospect. The general feeling at
home and abroad is fairly expressed, we think.
! by Sir Henry Wood, secretary and executive
member of the British Royal Commission, who
has just returned to England from this country
and who says, speaking for himself and his col
league, Mr.. James Dredge: ave have been
very much impressed with the manner in which
this important work has been undertaken, and
| we have no doubt whatever of its ultimate sue
