and fell, wetting both pony and rider.
After getting out he put his spurs to his
pony, thinking to warm him no by gallop.
No sooner did the pony feel the spurs
than he began bucking, breaking the bits

A striking commentary on the Duke of
MariDorough's much-discussed article on The
improvement of the British aristoeraey is
afforded by the announcement of the immi-
nent sale Of two of the grandest of all the
historical country seats OF England
The one is Powderham Castle, the great
est mansion in the vest of England and
which belongs TO the Courtenays. The
latter, although they are now content with
the mere title Of eaIls of Devon, once bore
the imperial purple and were emperors of
the eastern bali of the empire. Courte-
nay was also successfully the favorite of
Bloody Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth.
The other mansion is Burghley House,
near Stamform, belonging to the Marquis
OF Exeter. There is scarcely more beaati-
ful or interesting house TO be seen any,
where, and II stands in park which is the
glory OF the surrounding country. Some Of
the finest carvings OF GTiniing and Glib
bonS are found in tho rooms, while
masterpieces By Paul Veronese Castig-
lone, Kueiler and Lely adorn the walls.
LORD Exeter, 10 whom this place belongs, Is
the chief of the senior branch of the great
Cecil family, OF which Lord Salisbury heads
one OF the junior branches.
Both OF these estates, with all their his
torlcal associations aud picturesque beauty,
are Tor sale, and iDasmpch as Americans
are generous buyers, it is expected that Mr..
Astor or some other New York or Chicago
millionaire will purchase one or the other OF
the two houses.

Railroad men, as rule, are the most char
liable people in the world, and one need
only frequent places where this class re-
sorts to find this trait sticking out in bold
relief foremosE of all others.
An incident happened in Houston the
other day which goes to show the size of the
average railroader's heart. whether lie be a
section hand or the topmost official of the
company. Ii was only tiny child scarcely
years old who struggled into saloon
where half a dozen railroad men stood talk
ing about the merits of the new automatic
coupler. AT first she remained unobserved,
but approaching large man with short,
siubby mustaehe she looked at him for mo-
ment. Then, placing her tiny hand upon his
Drawny arm, the railroader turned suddenly
around. and was brought face to face with
the little tot.
Words were unnecessary. In her small
face were pictured tales of terrible suffering
A tear rolled down the cheek of the big
man, and as hs proceeded to touch the boys
for 81 apiece tie little one looked in quiet
Solicltade. When the collection was COM
plete the old railroader placed six silver
dollars In her hand, and the little Que de-
parted as quietly as she had entered. Not
word was spoken for fully minute, but
IT could be plainly seen that six hearts beat
IN sorrow for the poor little waif. though
they were only the hearts OF brakemen.

The steamer Hunter is lying idle at Vic
toria. The reason this trim little craft has
not been seen here this winter is because her
owners have dispute, which they are unable
to settle. tits said that the Hunter never was
used for anything but smuggling. She is
one Of the fastest boats on the sound. She
has seven-foot beam, and is sixty feet ia
length. She cost SIC, OO0, but Is said TO have
paid the cost OF building in six months after
SHE went TO work. Her captain, known as
"ffenchy." is believed TO be one Of the
most clever men in the business. The
Hunter has taken part In several exciting
races. IG is aileg ed That the Hunter can
steam away from such beats as the Victo-
rian or Greyhound without any trouble
whatever.
