Deuler. in Horse Men. Discovered.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-The depart
ment Of agriculture announces that in
spectors on Long Island unearthed an
abbatoer at Newton Greek, devoted en-.
tirely to the slaughter of broken down
and crippled horses. Many of these
horses were diseased, and some had
glanders. Most of the meat was orned
and put up for export as family beef.
The secretary of agriculture wired the
inspectors OF the ports of shipment to
stop such exports Immediately and no.
tify the local boards of health. One
deaier learning this changed his label
and undertook to ship some Of the stuff
abroad Us horse meat, under the impress
sion he could thus evade the bureau in.
spectors. Secretary Rusk. however,
did not propose to permit the intent OF
the Law to be thus baked and
he is advised to day that the chief
inspector at New York seized the entire
lot of seventy five tierces and turned it
over to the offal dock. The off ,ial
record in the bureau of animal indus
try shows that this nefarious industry
has been carried on for some time in q
secret fashion. Secretary Rusk is de-
termined to use all the power at his
command to put stop once and for all
to this abominable traffic.

Gently created department of the re-
public of Honduras, there are few
houses better than the watla of the
Carib or the Waika Indian, says the
New York Journal. The frame of the
watla rests upon eight or more posts
firmly set in the ground and are
usually of Santa Maria wood which
resists decay.
In the short crotch at the top of the
post lies the pole five or six inches in
diameter, which is the plate" on
which rests the long. slender rafters
which meet high above the ground.
The rafters are held in place by light
poles, which run around the ends and
sides of the roof. Cross pieces serve
to strengthen the whole.
Not a nail not bit of iron OF any
kind, is used in building this cottage
but the whole frame is held together
by ba.ucos or tie-tie vines. which are
found in unlimited quantities in every
forest and which. when green. can be
used as easily as cords could be for
lashing the pieces together As they
dry they shrink and bind the whole
most firmly.
While the men a-e putting up the
frame of the house the women are pre-.
pairing the covering. which is made of
a kind of leaf called 'rnonkey tail. $"
This they attach to strips some ten feet
long and an inch wide, split from bam-
boo, the whole making fiinge about
sixteen inches wide. Beginning at
the lower ends of the rafters. those
fripges are lashed firmly in rows ex-
tending entirely around the edge Of
the roof. The second row laps over
the first and the third over the second,
and SO on, until the house is covered
by u thatch which will turn the hsav-

years.
The walls of the house are made of
the trunks of raota palms, three or
four inches in diameter. These are
