the animal on the shoulder IL made
no impression at all apparently, for
nearly halt an hour.
At last the horse grew tired OF IL
and made a snap at the hand
the hand was taken away and the

mouth more time still for him 10 un-
dersiaud that he must pick IL up from

ing Of the handkerchief and the find
ing IL which invariably awakens en-
thusiasm.

Tho bids received were tor i've years

New York TO Rio, calling at st. Thomas.

four days fourth-class vessels. United
States and Brazilian Steamship Company.

Same company made same bid, on condi-
ton that thetwo previous bids ore rejected.
New York TO Havana, once each week ;

New York 10 Antwerp, calling at South.

first-class vessels The Inman Line bid 81

I is probable that nearly oil these bids
! Will be accepted.
| In an interview Mr.. Wanamsker said he
was highly gratified with the bids. The

ships OF the finest type, necessitating an
| outlay of from $4,000, 900 TO 0.000. 000
| The service proposed is not only first class
but double first class, because II contem
plates what has never before been done
that is. q line from an American port car
| rylng mails and passengers not only TO &
| British port, but TO French port also
southampton and Boulogne or Havre viii
be the ports of call.
The offer of line from Buenos Ayres is
also gratifying. The company bidding
state that they can start the first steamer
by the end of the present month. and thii
| would be the fiIst ship with an American
flag on the river Plata. As the Argentin,
country Is now quarantined against Bri
