ruE SCHOOL ELECTION.


with schoo Matters Rebuked.
In accordance with law enacted by
the last Legislature Of this State, for
the ostensible purpose Of keeping the
conduct Of the public schools out of
politics, an election for School Trus-
tees was held here last Monday.
There were two tickets in the field,
one bearing the names Of Henry
Kind, (member OF the present Board
for long term, and John T. Wheeler
for short term the other, with Felix
Maggini for long term, and ID. w.
Levan for short term. Three humid
red and seventy eight votes were cast.
Mr.. Kind received a majority OF As
votes, and Mr.. Wheeler 81.
The strife between the two parties
was Home Talent" Va. Normal
School Graduates" and the factions
we're led on the one hand by G. G..
Wallace and some OF his old liuten-
ants, and on the other side by the
parents and their friends at large.
The "Home Talent" faction was
beaten.
The day was bright and clear, and
the voting forces we're gathered to-
gether for voting early in the morning.
Vehicles Of every description we're
pressed into service to carry voters to
and from the poll. Many OF the voters
we're challenged, but the election was
as orderly a any that ever occurred in
Eureka. To show the great interest
evinced in the election it Is only neces-
sary TO state that the inmates OF the
County Hospital we're dragged TO the
schoolhouse to cast their votes. The
children, whose future department and
success in life depend upon their edu-
cation and early training, we're
intensely interested in the election,
and boys from IL to Is years Of age
turned out in force and did their level
best for the retention of the present
Trustees and teachers, and as oon as
the poll was closed, the count made
and the result announced they fred
anvils in honor OF the event. In the
evening they turned out and marched
through the streets in o torchlight
procession, and in various other ways
demonstrated that they considered
the victory was a righteous n and
peculiarly their own. Fireworks were
displayed while salutes were rapidly
fired. and an ordinary election cele-
bration was nothing as compared with
the jubilation. Major Long brought
out his young military squad in re-
view, and Mr.. Kind, a Trustee-elect,
was called upon. The gentleman APP
peared, and in a brief speech assured
the boys that he would always try
10 do them justice, and that VIII enever
they needed his advice and assistance
in school matters, they could always
rely ON their wishes and rights being
respected. Thus ended a day OF great
excitement and strife in our usually
quiet town, and which will long be re-
membered by many Of the partici-
pants,

An amusing incident happened in the

THE SPRING POET AND THE EDITOR.

Here comes the young spring poet with bis roll
of manuscript;
He's bud of rhythmic promise getting ready
to be nipped;
There the editor waits for him, with his right
eye slyly cooked;
In about another minute this spring poet will
lie shocked.
Good morning, sir" the poet cries, while
passing by this way,
just dropped in upon you to present a little
lay;'
And in his hand extended the young poet holds
his lines
Two weeks of ardent labor down among the
Jersey pines.
"Ah, see" the editor falters, as he now I'M
folds the verse,
And he draws his lips together like a little
buckskin purse
wis bit of springtime fancy, done in yellow,
green and blue,
And a shade of bright magenta, blended with
softer hue.
"'Oh, love the sweet arbutus, that is very
good indecd,n
Says the editor, who pauses when he'd just be-
gun to read,
And he looks toward the poet, who is blushing
rosy red;
"'And the little star eyed pixey, in its lowly
little bed"
And again the reader pauses, then again begins
to read,
"'Soon the buttercup will brighten all the
meadow and the mead
And the swallow will 90 whiring like a thought
upon the wing;'
Why, my dear sir" says the editor, this is
quite pretty thing.
But it needs IA little mending; some of its
poetic feet
Are a trhe lame and halting where they should
exactly meet.
Now, for instance, here's a dactyl where a
spondee fits the place,
And 1t quite destroys the symmetry of true
poetic grace.
"Yes, know tits true to nature" says the critic
in reply
To the poets interruption, with keenly flash
ing eye
"All the flowers are in season, and the land
scape does its part,
But what's nature in the country, in the city
isn't art,
The bright poetic fancy to the poet while he
burns.
"Thousl you've told pretty story, told it very
well indeed:
Why, you haven't told word of news, and
news Is what we nccd.'
Now departs the young spring poet, with his
roll of manuscript
All his sweet. warm, rhythmic fancy has been
rudely, sadly nipped;
And the hope and the ambition in his fondly
cherished lines
Will be buried now forever meath the signing
jersey pines!

DR.. STONES RED BUCKS.
RosEDALE, Ind, March, 1S9:


Editor Western Horsemdn From a
clipping sent me from your journal rel
alive to DR.. Stones Red Buck stallion,
| will give your readers many points of
interest in the locality where old Buck
stood for many years. hope you will
not consider me tedious. | see from the
clipping referred to that there is a mis-
take between two Red Bucks owned by
me. will give your readers the facts
beyond any doubt about both of their
breeding so far as can be done.
In 1853 old Red Buck was purchased
of his former owner near Stlesvile, Ind,
who could not give any pedigree of him,
and also raised another colt by Red
Bucks mother, which was not like old
Buck at all, and a heavy slow pacing
gelding. Old Buck had four white feet,
star and snip, l6 hands high, carried
ears straightforward, was treacherous
and sired treacherous colts. He also
sired many spotted colts. He got his
leg broken when very old. He was shot
by his owner in Edgar county, Ill. If
it was not the name given them the Red
Bucks should be the best horses on
earth.
In 1861 | bred mare of unknown
breeding, paced well for her age-twen-
ty-siX-to old Red Buck, and she was the
only one he served that season. | think
his owners retired him from the stud,
for they had race made with Blue
Bull. Stones Red Buck was foaled May
II, 1862. He was 151 hands high, one
white foot before and one behind, nickleaf
star and partial snip-blue sorrel, fine dis
position, carried ears erect, and his time,
under saddle was 226. Sired many
fast ones from common mares and many
spotted colts with white legs to body.
sold him to John NJ. Thornton, of
Eminence, Ky. That is the last | have
heard from him. w. p. Swain never
owned him.
Another Red Buck which see is
mistaken for the DR.. Stones Red Buck.
In 1858 Daniel Cox, of Parkersburgh,
Montgomery county, Ind. bred dun
mare of unknown breeding to old Red
Buck and raised stud colt. | purchas-
ed him in 1862, kept him four years,
sold him to Elliott Beal, of Park county,
Ind. {; he to w. P. Swain, of Park coun-
ty, Ind. He was l6 hands high, nc
white, carried ears straight forward, nice
red sorrel, i'll disposed and treacherous.
in 1867; time, three-minutes. He also
sired many spotted colts and several

ton of the two horses your readers can
come to correct conclusion.
