GRAY EAGLES DEBIT.
The Turning Point in the Life of a
Horse that Became Famous.

~AS 1 ~ mug EOluI IN the LIE or a
Horse that Became Famous.
From the Washington Post
OF the many bits of unpublished romance,
the natural hotsam and jessam Of the reced-
ing tide OF war about the national capital
during the close Of the long, dark days,
there is the following, lately come 30 light
almost companion piece. in an humble
way, to the now famous biography OF Black
Beauty:
1t happened late In the summer of '65 that
played out looking confederate cavalry
man-no uncommon sight-ambled into the
quiet precincts of Georgetown astride a flea
bitten, swltch-talled skeleton of a horse.
and, stopping in front OF Hszels livery'
called out the dealer in horseflesh and
opened negotiations for the sale of his
mount. The American Tattersail ran over
the points of the wreck with careful eve.
and at the end of the examination was less
surprised than would have been a less ex-
perienced judge when the soldier fixed L is
price at $3.50.
OF course the figures did not pass with
out dispute, but after some chatting the diff
ference was split at Sl35 and the trade
closed, the dis mounted ranger pursuing his
way on foot toward Dixie considerably bet
ter fixed than before in the matter of Incl
dental expenses, and the horse dealer lead
Ing his new purchase within, where he was
Rroomed, fed and watered by the old black
stable bosses as he had not been before in
many a day.
This care and attention kept up till far
into the autumn, when the crisp north
winds fired the leaves of all the forest OUT
side and sent he blood coursing faster in the
veins OF all creation, while the frost worked
down into the ground and toughened up the
roadbeds we'll for speeding. Then the old
gentleman, who was then not 80 bad as he
is now, one day called an acquaintance and
brought out the confederate gray for in
6pectlou.
The inter-rib space or the skeleton had
nlled out until they we're no longer to be seen
and the switch tail had heightened to quite
respectable proportions, while about the
whole frame there was a general springlness
that might be laid to good currying and
United States oats.
Driving leisurely to the edge Of the town,
where there was good level stretch of dirt
road in view, the driver laid the whip know
ingly across the lines he had wound round
hls hand and let the strange horse go. And
he went. Road and fences turned to bur,
and the icy wind whistled through the furs
After good mile the driver pulled up
gently, sprung out and ran his hands over
the sllvery sides that were scarcely heaving,
and patted the velvety nostrils, saying with
chuckle: II thought | wasn't mistaken"
And then they went home.
Time passed, and the fame of the gray
trotter spread, till finally his owner parted
with him some hat regretfully for 81 500
That was the flyer afterward known upon
the turf as Gray Eagle.

TO Avoid Contagious Diseases

IL ANO1O contagious diseases
1t is of the utmost Importance TO strengthen
the body. A healthy body will much
sooner withstand the ravages of contagious
diseases, Cholera, La Grippe, ETC., than
weak frame. The genuine Johann Hoff's
Malt Extract is acknowledged In this re-
speot to be the best tonic beverage aud Is
especially recommended for invalids, where
delicate yet strengthening tonic in neces-
sary to build up debilitated constitution.
One dozen bottles of Johann Hoff's Malt
Extract are equal in nutritive and tonic
qualities to one cask Of Ale or Porter, with
out being intoxicating. It's beneficial alike
to man, woman or child.
Prof. Prosper De Petra Santa of Paris
says: "As large number of patients lack
the necessary power to digest solid food.
and would through the use of stimulants be
merely excited aud weakened, therefore
regard it Of immense value TO the prac-
tihoner to bring to bis aid nutritious tonic
and remedy like the Johann Hof's Malt
Extract which will act not only as tonic,
but as q nutrient as well, and which is less
exciting than wine as stimulant."
Be sure to obtain the genuine which has
the signature of Johann Holt" on the neck
Of every bottle.

GOLD BECOMES SCARCE.

Tho Amount In the Subtrcasury But s1O,-
oOo,ooO-Hcavy Drafts Upon IL from All
Sources Cause Failing on In the
Amount of Available Funds.
NEW YORK, July 16.-The So, 500, 900
of GOLD exported from the United States
last week and the $3.50, 900 Wednes-
day were taken directly from the
United States treasury vaults, drawn
from what is called the free
gold, instead of being furnished
by the banks, as the custom has been
heretofore The United States treas
ury on July held Sill, OH, ,s-7 in gold
above the obligations represented by
the outstanding gold certificates. OF
this sum 500, 900, 600 is held by the treas
ury under the law, as reserve for the
redemption of the greenbaclls or United
States notes. This leaves only Sill
071,257 of free gold. Heretofore
exports of gold have been made in this
way: The foreign bankers went to the
banks IN this city, deposited legal
tenders, and obtained therefor gold GER
tificates for the amount of the gold re-
quired. They then presented the cer-
tificates at the subtreasury and re-
ceived gold coin for them. Although
the difficulty may be safely bridged
over, and it probably will be, the
United States is just now menaced
with serious shortage of gold For
the first time in the history of gold ex-
ports to Europe the yellow coins have
begun to come out from the treasury
vaults and not from the banks.
By deliberate and premeditated
move the officers of five or six banks,
through which these shipments are
made, now refuse to give up their
boards of gold, as represented by
gold certificates, and the drain
is upon the subtreasury. But re-
Gently, under their management, the
banks have refused to give the ship
pers gold certitica ties, holding them in
stead of green backs or United States
notes. BY the express terms of the
law United States notes or greenbacks
are payable in gold. but the treasury
notes are payable at the option of the
secretary of the treasury either in gold
or silver.
The treasury notes, however, have
been redeemed in gold without ques-
tion at the subtrcasury, and the 81, 5OO.-
600 in gold shipped to Europe last week
was obtained from the subtreasury on
the presentation of greenbaclss and
treasury notes. the banks holding on to
their gold certificates. If there were
no more gold coming in it would be a
question of very short time
when the supply of free gold
now in the treasury would
be exhausted and the government have
no more gold to pay out. The effect of
such a shortage in this financial center
would be disastrous. The entire
amount OF free gold in the treasury
vaults this morning is not more than
Sl0,OOo,Ooo. This is acknowledged in
the financial world to be an uucom-
fortably small amount 1t is declared
that if this reserve should be wiped out
gold would at once go to premium.
