RI val EmbIems,

The ostrich feather first assumed by the
Black Prince of England was the chosen
device of his son, Richard II, for his flags
and personal garments. The ostrich feather
and the white swan were the cognizance
of the Yorkists, and it is frequently figured
on copes of the period. The broom pod
was the symbol of the Plantagenets, and it
is found chiefly in conjunction with the
white hart and the suns rays darting up
ward from behind a cloud. The white
hart, with Royal crown on its neck, from
which falls a chain, occurs frequently in
embroidery of the date of Richard 1.-THE
emblem, indeed, was national at the time.
The hart collared and lodged beneath green
trees in park is Richards own emblem,
so also the greyhound collared and courant.
This was the kings own dog Math, and a
touching history is attached to it. 1t was
the fashion to array dogs in ornamental
collars embroidered with gold, and the
kings favorite greyhound so arrayed used
to caress him by placing his two fore feet
on his shoulders On the day that Richard
was dethroned, the dog left his master and
leaped to the Duke of Lancaster's should
ers, caressing him as he formerly used to
caress the king

GEORGIAN Men and women.

The natives of Georgia, country in
Asia, situated on the south side of the
Caucasian range, and now included in the
Russian government Tiflis, belong to the
Caucasian race and have been as much
celebrated as the Circassians for the ath-
letic frames of the men and the beauty of
the women. These qualities have created
in bygone times a large demand for the
men to serve in the armies and for the
women to become inmates of the harems
of the Turks.
The Georgian mobiles long derived their
chief revenue from this traffic, valuing
their serfs only for the money which they
could obtain for them in the Turkish
markets. Under the Russian sovereignty,
which was established in 1900, this traffic
has ceased, and the distinction which di-
vided the whole population into the classes
of mobiles and serfs, nearly equivalent to
those of masters and slaves, though still
subsisting, has been greatly modified. The
Georgians belong to the Greek church, and
the Bible was translated into their native
language as early as the beginning of the

A Good Country for 1Iothers-in-law.
A Paris correspondent tells of fact not
generally known on this side of the water,
namely, that in France a man on enter
ing into the holy bonds of matrimony rem
ders himself legally responsible not only
for the support of his wife, but for that of
her parents, in case they should become
destitute, and the same obligation is in
CURED by the wife in regard to the father
and mother other husband. When, how
ever, this enactment was inscribed in the
code, the practice of divorce did not form
part of French law, and this fact has given
rise recently to a couple of very curious
suits. A husband who was divorced some
time ago was much surprised to receive a
summons from his ex-mother-in-law to
pay the usual installment of the alimony
which he had allowed her during his mar
ried life. OF course the young man argued
that as the law had rid him of his wife,
equity would scarcely force him to support
his mother-in-law. The Paris court, how
ever, informed the defendant that, equity
or no equity, the code was unmistakable,
and that he would have to pay the money
He demurred, naturally, at such farcical
decision, and appealed to the court of cas-
sation, which invalidated the finding of
the lower tribunal.

town where it is found lies on the river
Inerste in Germany, and once belonged to

tree, grows on the wall of the chapel at st.
Anne. 1t is asserted by some that the
slip was planted by Louis lie Debonnaire,
son of Charlemagne, who died in $40, but
more creditable tradition assigns its origin
to the year 800. 1t died to the ground dur
ing the last years of the last century, and
its present height of thirty feet represents
110 years of growth from root 800 years
old. The Hildesheim rosebnsh is called
the Oldest and most famous in the European

BLIND HORSES
Entertaining Facts and Theories About
THAR singular Perceptive Powers.

Entertaining Facts and Theories About
Their Singular Perceptive Powers.
The way in which blind horses can go
about without getting into more difficult
ties than they ordinarily do is very remark
able. They rarely if ever hit their heads
against n fence or stone wall. They will
side off when they come near one. A
writer in London journal says: 1T ap-
pears from careful observation l have
made that it is neither shade nor shelter
which warns them of the danger. On an
absolutely sunless and windless day their
behavior is the same. Their olfactory
nerves doubtless become very sensitive, for
when driving them they will poke their
heads downward in search of water fifty
yards before they come to a stream cross
ing the roadway. 1t cannot be an abnor-
mally developed sense of hearing which
leads them to do this, for they will act
alike though the water be stagnant pool.
sMen who have been blind for any great
length of time develop somewhat similar
instincts to blind horses. Some one says
that none of the five senses has anything
to do with this singular perceptive power,
but that the impressions are made on the
skin Of the face and by it transmitted to
the brain, and this 'unrecognized sense
he calls facial perception But possibly
this perceptive power may have its origin
in such conditions as prevail in somnam-
bulism or in the hypnotic state. Are all
such phenomena in man and horse as
have mentioned to be accounted for by the
two words facial perception if they
mean anything? However, speaking of
blind horses, why should they cast their
coats as winter comes on and grow long
coats at the advent of summer, apd so re-
verse the order which is the invariable rule
in the case of horses possessed of perfect

Anaconda Entry Money.

To make it interesting for the Anaconda
association the Butte Miner records that a
few Butte horsemen shipped some of their
colts to Anaconda, rendered third payment,
according to rule, and sent their colts
around the track for the stakes they were
entered in. 1t is said Secretary Thornton
gave the gentlemen a written guarantee that
the stakes would be run off at Butte, as a
good many of the Helena horsemsn have
entered colts at Anaconda and have been
waiting some time expecting to receive their
money back. A reporter called upon Fran
ois Pope, the Montana State fair score
taro, who il considered good authority on
turf usages, and asked him for an opinion
in the matter. Mr.. Pope frankly stated that
he thought the Anaconda association should
have promptly sent back the money paid in
by each horseman, this would have been
the fairest way and would have given little
cause for grumbling. any person naming a
colt in a stake to be run at Anaconda is GER
tainly no party to a stake to be run off at
Butte. Moreover the announcement that
the Anaconda meeting was off was sufficient
of itself to cause horsemsn to pay no fur
ther attention TO the dates. and it would be
manlfestly unfair to ask q horseman from q
distance to take a colt out OF his stable and
go to Anaconda to simply protect his rights.
The home horseman would have facilities
not easily participated in by those at n dis
lance. Mr.. Pope Was quite certain that had
the stake money been returned no owner
would have made the slightest objection.

Thew Were Not HOhoeS.

The decision of Judge Sanders yesterday
in the case of the nine men arrested at
East Helena on Thursday night. will no
doubt settle the fact for some time to come.
that a laborer temporarily out of a job and
looking for another is not a "hobo." All
the men gave good excuses and showed that
they were ~workingmen. They happened to
be out of work and stopped at East Helena,
some coming one way and some another.
Some one at East Helena thought the town
was threatened with an influx of tramps
and telegraphed to this city for help. The
police took a special engine and went out
and arrested the men. After being two
days and nights in Jail they were released.
In these times it ia considered somewhat
unfortunate that every man not wearing Il
dress suit should be classed as a tramp.
