Mr.. GERRY, OF the society for the
prevention OF cruelty to children in
New York, continues to move in q
mysterious way. He will not allow
children to appear on the stage, but
does not prevent their wandering
about half-clothed in the street.
Those humane people love a shining
mark and think their good deeds
should be seen OF men. Practical
people believe there is a better way OF
doing these things, more wholesale
and wholesouled, so to speak.

The Bogie man does not obtain in La
Sale county, When the good housewives
in that section wish to frighten youthful
rebels into submission they threaten to
bring down the vengeance of Julius, the
ghost horse, and many chubby face has
grown ashsn at the bare mention of the
name. Every man. woman and child in
the county knows Julius, says the Chicago
Tribune. and the stories Of his wronedo-
inps have grown during four years of cap
tivity at Grand Ridge until he has been
given the credit Of killing five men. His
evil doings have been exaggerated, as no
one owes his death to him, but that was
not the fault of julius, for he has shown
startling Willingness to destroy life.
Julius is Norman horse and was i'm
ported as colt BY j. q. Morrison, of Pom.
tiao, ILL.,, at cost OF $500. The sea trip
proved too much for his temper and he ar
rived at his new home q brute anxious to
destroy any person or thing that came
within reach Of him. Morrison soon tired
Of him and sold him to dealer in neigh
boring town. His new owner was within
reach OF him few days later and the brute
nipped off his right thumb and swallowed it
with evident relish. This lost him his new
job and T. II. Poundstone of Grand Ridge,
bought him for a song.
The new owner made the most elaborate
preparation to receive his prize. In his
barn he fitted up nm enormous box-stall
with reinforced sides and massive door
made of ten-inch oak boards. A door which
could be swung by means of rope from
the outside Of the stall opened into yard
thirty feet square. around which ten-foot
massive fence had been built.
Into this place the brute was turned, and
there he remained for four years. He was
not groomed in all that time, and no one
dare venture within his domain, The ton
foot fencein his yard hardly restrained
julius. When in fit of anger he would
rush at it, throw his front fest to the top Of
the fence, and look snvagely out at pedcs-
trianA. In order to prevent this kind of
demonstration Mr.. Pou1.dstone one day
started to nail up some barbed wire on the
top Of tho fence. he was well on the out
aide, and thinking himself safe took his
eyes for moment of his prizo. The brute.
with almost human intelliRsnce, saw hia
chance, and making = rush won't thunder
ing against the fonce with his forefeet
against tho top. His owner drew back, but
too lato. Tho enraaed beast rsnched over
and catching him by tho shoulder shook
him like a rat and tried to drag him over
into the inolosurs. where he would speedily
have pnt nn end to him. Mr.. Poundstone
caught tho top bar of the fonoe and with
strength born OF desperation held ON. Tho
brute. however. waH too strong for him
and was gradually drawing him over when
