Tulkinson-a barrister and bachelor
combined, by the way-is very sys.
tematic man. The other day he had his
house fitted with electrical appliances,
and giving instructions to his servant
Joseph, he said:
"Now l want you to understand,
Joseph, that when | ring once that
means for you, and when | ring twice
that means for Maggie, the housemaid. I"
Joseph, who is the LATEST wretch that
ever accepted wages he did not earn,
bowed respectfully and withdrew. A
little later the bell rang. Joseph never
moved. Presently it rang again, anG
according to instructions Maggie came
hurrying to her master. who was very
angry.
"Why didn't that rascal, Joseph, come
when | rang for him" said the bar
rister bachelor disgustedly.
"Why, sir" answered Maggie, ."Jo-
seph is busy in the Office reading your

ring he said to me, Now, Maggie, wait
until he rings the second time, and then
it will be you he wants. '"-London Tit

Strange Cave Dwellers in Spain.

At a meeting of the Royal Geograph-
ical society, of Madrid, DR.. Bide gave an
account of his exploration of wild
district in the province of Caceres,
which he represented as still inhabited
by strange people who speak curious
patois and live in caves and inaccessible
retreats. They have hairy skin and
have hitherto displayed strong repug-
nance to mixing with their Spanish and
Portuguese neighbors. Roads have lately
been pushed into the district inhabited
by the "Jurdes," and they are begin
ming to learn the Castilian language
and attend the fairs and markets.

The Growth of Railroad Mileage.

In 1880 there were twenty-three miles
of railway in operation in the United
States. BY 1889 the mileage had in
creased to 229 miles, and in 1885 the
country had 1908 miles of railroad. The
first through railroad from the east
westward was completed in 1S42 between
Boston and Albany, connecting at the
latter place with the Erie canal. In the
same year the last link of the line from
Albany to Buffalo was opened. At the
end of 1S48 the total mileage of all the
railroads in the country was 5,996 miles,
or about 500 miles more than there are
now in the state of Nebraska.-Edward

Across the Arctic Ocean at Two Miles q d.

Across the Arctic Ocean at Two Miles Day
The objects from the Jeanette drifted
in three years from the New Siberian
islands to the west coast of Greenland. If
we assume that they required one year for
the drift southwark from latitude 80 degs
north, on the east coast of Greenland, only
two years remain for the rest Of the jour
ney and this requires speed of no more
than two nautical miles in every twenty
four hours. This does not seem too high a
rate when we remember that the Jeanette
drifted at the same speed during the last
half year Of her drifting, and that in the
last days before she sank she drifted at q
much higher speed, which sometimes
reached even eight nautical miles every
twentyfour hours 1t cannot therefore be
considered improbable that we should
reach open water on this side of the pole
within two years after our start from the
Siberian side, and if we take provisions for
five years we may consider that we have
an ample margin.-Dr. Fridtjof Nansen In

published comments about White Cloud,
the grandsire of Leopard Rose. Not
withstandng what has been written, the
following is correct as far as known:
l.. c. Sturgis, while driving on his farm
in Litchiield, Medina Co., Ohio. purchas-
ed the dam of White Cloud of some NOV
ers from the South who were passing
through Litchfield. She was repres ent-
ed to Mr.. Sturgs as being a Kentucky
bred mare. She was spotted and had
white eyes, but not watch eyes.
"She was Il very fast trotter. In a
short time she proved to be with foal ,
and Mr.. Sturgis, not wanting her, sold
her to an old man by the name of IIodg-
son, also of Litchfeld. Therefore no one
knows the breeding of the dam or sire
at present. l.. c. Sturgis now owns a
livery here in Medina, has always been
interested III horses, and above is the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth. The movers were from the
South, and in CHANGING over Senator

"As Richmond is sire of PAGERS

the peculiar color of the White Clouds

might be that the dam of White Cloud

FLAxTAlL'S CORRECT BREEDING.
| From Breeder and Sportsman, San Fran
cisco.

From Breeder and Sportsman, SAN Fran
cisco
The article which appeared in this jouI-
nal two weeks ago in reference to the
discussion about the breeding of FlaXtail,
the sire of speedy trotters, seems at last
about to end, and every breeder and own
er of trotting horses will be glad to know
that he traces directly back to Canadian
Pilot, sire of Pilot, Jr., Tom Crowder,
Ole Bull and others of renown. Flax
tails sire, Bull Pup, was the sire of that
wonderful campaigning race horse Row
dy Boy, 2:l3a, that went down the cir
cult with Lucy, Sleepy Tom, Matte
Hunter, Sorrel Dan and Bay Billy in
1880.
All of the best trotters and PAGERS that
are to Sidney's credit, with the exception
of one or two, trace directly to this won
derful horse. Granddaughter and grand
sons of FlaXtai will be esteemed more
highly hereafter. Out of the seven
daughters of Faxtail brought to this
State by DR.. Hicks but one has failed as
producer of 80 performers, and she
has only lately been placed in the harem.
A curious fact regarding the FlaXtail
mares is that they were never bred but
to two sires of performers, Sidney and
STEAMBOAT, and produced 2 80 trotters by
each.
