Awaiting themselves of this excitement
Bello n POlenO. who had witnessed the
trial, made their way out noiselessly. They
had been trembling for their safety during
the whole of Muller's confession and were,
moreover, seriously afraid Dakouss might
denounce them in order to avenge himself
on them.
Andrew Popoff, on the contrary, who had
kept in the centre of the crowd, now went
I'M to the bench of the witnesses and took
his seat by Louise de Schelmberg, who.
with her veil around her head, sat bowed
down, as if struck by lightning.
Alexandra n lana were in each others

He is surely safe now?' Alexandra
asked the lawyer.

The door of the council hall opened and
to the immense stupefaction of the public,
Darine returned to his sent. Was this
pride, consciousness of his i%nviolability as
encouragement or an invinclble desire to
witness the end of the trial? He certainly
had not fed. He dropped oarelessly into
his arm chair.

was restored, the president spoke:

HORSE AND MULE STATISTICS.

Census bulletin 103, prepared by MT. Mortimer Whitehead, special agent of he census office, gives statistics of horses, mules and asses on farms of Ihree or more acres, but not including | his kind of stock on ranges, kept on holdings of less than three acres, or in ities and villages.
 The figures of the tables show that in he states and territories, there were n hand June l, 1890, 14,976,0l7 horses, ,246, ,936 mules and ,l09 asses; that 1889 there were foaled l,Sl4,4O4 orses, 157, ,105 mules, and 7,957 asses; hat there were sold in the same year ,309 ,557 horses, 329,995 mules, and ,27l asses, and that there died from all auses 765, ,2l1 horses, mules and asses uring the same period.
 Taking the whole country into consid- ration, the mule is not keeping pace ith the horse as farm animal; but he mule grows in favor and use in sev- ral of the southern states faster than he horse. One reason for the change the eastern, northern, central and estern states is probably the falling f in the profits of agriculture during be past decade, causing the farmer to Eonomise in many ways. The price of prses has held up better than of most asses of farm stock during the past ten A nf do tho fa m ork and raise pair of colts each year, mares have taken the place of mules h tens of thousands of farms.
 Still, the breeding of mules is a great iustry, found largely in Missouri, entucky, Tennessee and Texas, with a nsiderable development in Kansas, alifornis, Illinois, Arkansas, Missis- ppi, Alabama and North Carolina. nder the diversified system of agricul- re rapidly spreading in the south the teeding of horses and mules is growing favor, and cannot fail to add largely the material wealth of that section. The hardy little burro has advantages Ter both horse and mule, and in some ctions count up into the thousands, Ptablyin New Mexico, California and plorado. Census figures show that on e ranges of New Mexico, in 1890, ere were l3,074 of these useful crea- res employed as pack animals for Rnsportation.
 The breeders of "jack stock' are hinly located in Tennessee, Kentucky, inois, Colorado, Missouri, Texas, |uisiana and Alabama.
 The jack stock imported into this untry comes mainly from Spain, ance, Italy and the islands of Malta q Majorca. The best animals sell as gh as 5000 and 5000 each. In the iteau district of France, not larger pn most of our counties, statistics pw that in a single year 50,000 mares
 re bred to jacks, and the yearly ex- It of young mules amounted in value
 between two and three millious of

What Is It For2

ed boys. Life is an interrogation point. "What is it for?" we con- tinually cry from the cradle to the grave. So with this little introduc- tory sermon we turn and ask: What is AUGUST FLOWER FOR ?" As easily answered as asked: It is for Dys- pepsia. It is a special remedy for the Stomach and Liver, Nothing more than this; but this brimful.
 We believe August Flower cures Dyspepsia. We know it will. We have reasons for knowing it. Twenty years ago it started in a small country town. To-day it has an honored place in every city and country store, possesses one of the largest manu- featuring plants in the country and sells everywhere. Why is this The reason is as simple as a child thought. It is honest, does one thing, and does it right along-it cures Dyspepsia. g

Not with the Pecultarttiea OF the Engine
But by the Cowcateher.
About a mile from Calera, Ala, we
came to a place where the railroad
track crossed the public highway, and
stuck on the track was a mule hitched
to a rickety old wagon loaded with
wood. The front wheels had stopped
at the rail, and the male was fair across
the metals. He stood there with his
head down and his ears lazily work
ing, and lying on the grass near by was
an old negro man smoking a pipe.
What's the matter?" ] asked, as we
drew up.
dat mewl has done gigged back, ="
he replied.
DO you mean he won't pull his load
over the track?"
"Zactly, sah-'zactly. lie kin do ii
il he wants ter, but he jest won't.
He's de obstinatest critter in dis hull
staff"
One of our party got down and took
the animal by the bit and tried to start
him up, but he hung back until he al
most sat down.
1T hain't no use tryin'," said the
owner as he came forward Hes one
of dem breed of nevis who gifts sot
once in awhile, an when dat fit strikes
him he's bound to stay right dar."
But if you don't get him off he'll be
struck by train"
Cant help it, sab. He's dun bin
wantin' to see dat train for long time,
an now Tze gwine to let him"
We were going to seize the wagon
and boost the whole outfit over, but
the colonel said if the "nigger" didn't
care it was no funeral of ours We
heard train coming and got back out
of the way, and the negro waved his
hand and shouted to the mule:
Peel dat eye of yours now an see
dem kivered kyars! You've dun bin
crazy to git nigh dat bullgine an see il
it was alive, an yo'll soon know all
bout it,
1t was heavy freight train coming
on a down grade. The engineer footed
| as he rounded the curve, but the mule
never raised his head. Instead of try
ing to stop more steam was put on, and
next moment that mule went twenty
feet high, while it rained wagon wheels
and pine knots all over the township
AS the train passed on we found the
mule in the bushes thirty feet from the
| track. lie was all there, but dead as a
| door-nail. The negro came slowly up,
| took long look, and then shook his fist
at the dead animal and said:
II dun tole yo' dat bullgine was alive,
but yo wouldn't believe it! | hope 20
| feel better now! Yo' has went an got
yourself killed off, de wagon busted up,

The Bright scheme of a Society Man and
What Came of 1t.
There is a certain bright youth in
Chicago who is something of an elocu-
ZIONIST and who prides himself on the
ease with which he always gets out of a
difficulty. One rainy night he was on
his way to keep an engagement at the
house of young lady, where he was to
show off some of his vocal accomplish
ments. When he was within three
blocks of the place the rain suddenly
began to come down in earnest. llav-
ing no um brella, he ensconced himsel f
in doorway and looked and waited in
vain for a cab. Soon he saw a man
coming through the gloom with an
umbrella.
"Now's my chance, he thought, 'I'll
work a scheme"
When the stranger approached he
quickly placed himself under his UNI
brella and said: "Why, old man, I've
been waiting for you for half an hour"
and then without giving the stranger
time to reply ratified on until they were
in front of his destination. AS the light
from the door fell upon the face of the
owner of the um brella the clever young
man simulated great establishment and
begged a thousand pardons for his SEEM
ing rudeness, as he really thought it
was his friend Dick"
The stranger replied that he had suf-
fered no inconvenience in the least, and
protested that he had enjoyed the mis-
take"
Our friend went into the house and
gloatingly told of the ruse he had prac-
ticed to get out of the dilemma.
Someone told him that his necktie
was disarranged. He put his hand up,
and 10! his diamond pin had gone. lie
felt for his watch, and it likewise had
fed. He spent the rest of the evening
in trying to get his friends to say moth
ing of his sharp little game and its con-

"WhistIe Jacket,s" Picture.

The following incident is related in
connection with one of the famous
Wentworth Woodhouse collection.
The picture is of race-horse named
"Whistle Jacket, and the curious thing
about it is that it has no background.
When the picture of the horse was
nearly finished it was suggested that
a portrait of George ~. should
be placed in the saddle, and
that landscape be added; but before
this was done "Whistle Jacket" was
brought to be compared with his pic
ture, and. to everyone's establishment,
attacked it so savagely that it was near
ly destroyed. Thisincident was thought
so curious that the picture was hung as
it was, without background or King
George.-Harper's Young People.
