Set a Horses Broken Rib.

Four or five months ago one of the
hostlers employed at the stable Of
Charles D. Nichols, OF Pawtucket, no
ticed that one of the handsome pair Of
cream geldings acted a little lame. A
superficial examination of the shoulder
resulted in not finding any cause for
lameness, The next morning, when the
animal was taken out to be curried
there was a swelling back of the shout

suited 1t appeared to him like rheu-
matism, and with instructions to see if
it could not be sweated out he left, say
ing he would call the next day. The
sweating process did not meet the de-
sired results, and a thorough examina-
ton revealed the fact that the fifth rib
was broken of very close to the back.
bone
The rib was set, and since that time
the animal has done no work. The result
Of this piece OF bonesetting has been
watched with no small amount of inter

who have become acquainted with the
peculiar circumstances of the case. How
the rib was broken is yet a mystery, and
it probably will remain so. The result
of the operation was successful, and in a
short time the animal will again be all
right. -Providence Journal

Mackenzie on the Throa1

Sir Moren Mackenzie, the great throat
specialist, had decided views about the
use and abuse of the larynx. Singers,
to keep their vocal powers in the best
trim, must not smoke at all. II, how
ever, they viii smoke let them do so
only after full meal, and never before
singing. Particularly they must not
inhale tobacco smoke, and they are to
use only mild tobacco, with the mouth
piece of pipe or cigar holder kept clean
with ultra Mohammedan strictness."
The man in whom tobacco increases
the flow of saliva to any marked de-
gree is not intended by nature to
smoke"
In view of the prevailing fashions of
ladies' garments and the high, stiff col
lars of men, the following advice is in
teresting:
The great thing Is to try and harden the
throat. Do not wrap 1t mp too much. Endeay-
or TO make the neck as capable Of exposure as
the face. We do not cover up our faces, and
they are practically the hardest part of our
bodies. OF course, when a person gets TO a GER
tain age II Is too late for this. Keep the throat
free from wrappings. The throat is the en-
trance TO the fungs-a very vital part, narrow
and tender. The great feather boas and Medici
collars which ladies wear around the neck, and
the sitting muffiers which men put on, are
calculated to do harm. Gargling with cold
salt water in the morning is very excellent
thing, also bathing the throat, first with very
hot water, and then with very cold The throat
gets the effect Of sudden shock.

A DeIuge of Dollars.

@. q. Kicker, chief clerk of the St
Louis subtreasury; q. g. Farrar, the re-
ceiving teller, and E. NJ Miller, the
Waterman of the vault, were standing
in group just inside the ponderous
doors and beside several immense rows
of silver dollars which were piled to the
ceiling of the vaults in canvas bags, each
containing 81 900 and weighing about
sixty pounds.
Suddenly Mr.. Kicker noticed a slight
bullying movement of the center of the
outside row of heavy sacks, and realiz-
ing in second what was about to oc-
cur, he sprang to the opposite side of the
vault, at the same time showing his COM
panions away from the falling mass of
silver. Mr.. Farrar fell in one corner
out of harms way, while Mr.. Miller was
fortunate enough to lodge in the passage
room between the smaller vaults, which
is at the farther end of the silver room.
Mr.. Ricker's action was none too early,
for in the twinkling of an eye nearly
10000 pounds of silver were piled four
feet deep on the spot where they had
been standing
AS it was, several Of the bags struck
him on the legs and bruised his feet.
The truck used to wheel the heavy sacks
about, which was standing in the mid
die of the vault, was smashed. Nearly
81, 100000 were scattered promiscously
around the steel room, and it was by the
merest chance that none of the men
was killed. In consequence of the &C
cident a large amount of the silver coin
will be moved to the upper vaults

list in order that they might be ready to
go to the front with the old regiment if
the occasion should require. In few
instances new uniforms were ordered by
veterans who had outgrown their old

was to bring out in full force the "ex-

days They stirred up the down town
business sections at noon and startled
the people in the residence streets in the
evenings. On two or three occasions
the papers they sold actually contained
some news about the CHILEAN situation
but in the majority of cases there was
nothing to justify the narrowing cry of

through several usually quiet streets on

evening and worked off few hundred

the lot at so much per pound, and they
sold the papers at five cents a copy

LIGHT AND AIRY.
His Names.

Never a boy had so many names;
They called him Jimmy and Jim and James,
Jeems and Jamie: and well he knew
Who it was that wanted him too.
The boys in the street ran after him,
Shouting out loudly. "Jimi Hey, Jimr'
Until the echoes little and big,
Seemed to be dancing Jim Crow jig.
And little Mabel, out in the hall,
Jimmy! JIMMY" would sweetiy call,
Until he answered and let her know
Where she might find him, she loved him 50
Grandpapa, who was dignifed,
And held his head with an air OF pride,
Didn't believe in abridging names,
And made the most of "J-a-m-e-s."
But If papa ever wanted him,
Crisp and curt was the summons, "Jimf"
That would make the boy on his errands run
Much faster than If he had said, MY son."

An Opal Ring and Some Royal Deaths.

An opal King ana some Royal Deaths
Foreign papers tell story of an opal
ring belonging to the late King AL
phonso XII of Spain, which will be
treasured by those who believe in the
superstition regarding the evil effects of
that stone. On his wedding day the
king presented beautiful ring to his
Queen Mercedes, daughter of the Duke
of Montpensier. The queen wore the
ornament till her death, which occurred
soon afterward. Before the burial his
majesty took the ring from his wife's
finger and placed it upon that of his sis
ter, the Infanta Maria del Pillar. The
young princess only lived few days
after receiving the ring
A third time the king took possession
of the ring, and presented it to his sis
ter-in-law, Princess Christina, the
youngest daughter of the Duke of Mont
pensier. Three months later the prin-
cess died. The king, surprised at the
history Of the ring, decided to wear it
himself. But he did not wear it long,
as death soon claimed him also. The
queen regent, after the burial Of her
husband, attached the ring to golden
chain and placed it upon the neck of the
Virgin of Almudena, the matron saint of
Madrid. Superstitious Spaniards fool
ishly attribute the various deaths TO the
ring, as matter of course.
