A Clever Horse.

This story shows the intelligence
of a Kentucky roam, who was left in an
open paddock fastened by means of a
wooden hasp. This he learned 10 a few
DAYS to take out with his teeth and drop
on the ground, only TO have 1T carefully
replaced by the stable boy, who displayed
a wonderful intuition about discovering
it. Finally, when it became plain to his,
horseish understanding that there was
nothing to be gained by such a perfor-
nance be tried the experiment Of carry
ing it over to the other side of the fence
and letting it fall into u neighborlng
yard.
Now u so happened that his owner
caught him in the act and relentleSsly
went and fastened him in again: then
from a distance he watched to see what
would come next. As he had expected,
the horse diligently loosened the stick
again, but-now comes the queer part of
it-instead Of putting it in any OF the
old places he gave one defiant snor ard
laboriously set to work to eat it up. II
his object was the tytal humiliation OF
the hasp there is no doubt he accom-
plished it fully. All of which goes to
prove what a splendid disregard OF
%splinters and a little ingenuity eau &C
complish.- Chicago Ntms.

TIE action or the tennessee noun
taineers in breaking up by force OF
arms the odious system Of convict
lease-labor will be variously criticised.
The State authorities claim that they
can aud will r%e-establish the system
in the very region whence it has been
so forcib!y rejected. But they will
think better of this. Every man who
believes in the dignity Of labor, and
in the right Of the ~workingman to
protect himself from crushing COM
petition, will sympathize with the
hardy men of the mountains who have
struck a fierce blow at a barbarous
survival of savage times. The North
has never been willing TO adopt a
system which has sc marS repulslVe
features, and which is so manifestly
contrary to the interests Of free and
honest workmen., If Northern men,
urged by greed, have now and then
profted by the system, it must not
be understood that their felloW-cltl-
zens approved their course. The
South, where convict lease-labor has
been almost exclusively employed, is
gradually awakening to a sense OF the
barbarity of the plan. The rifle shots
of the Tennessee miners, who believe
in a free field for honest men, have
sounded the knell Of an institution
which never had a single argument in
its favor.

watering-place, and Miss Saunders,
while bathing, got beyond her depth.
The beach where the accident occurred
has a sharp fall of three or four feet,
and the young lady, being unaware OF
this, ventured outside the safety line.
Her screams attracted the attention Of
Miss Hays, who was also in the water, and
she at once swan to her assistance. She
reached the spot just as the unfortunate
girl was about to sink for the last time.
The latter had sufficient strength left,
however, to throw her arms around the
neck of her rescuer. Miss Hays was near.
~ dragged under by the added weight,
but managed to draw her friend almost
TO shore when a fisherman came to her as
sis.ance. Miss Hays did not stop her
good work here, but Immediately set
about to restore Miss Saunders, who had
tainted from fright and exhaustion. Miss
Saunders cannot swim, and undoubted-
" owes her life to the promptness and
pluck of the girl who now wears the
medal of the royal society.

PHILOSOPHERS are supposed tx

PHILOSOPHERS are supposed to
weigh well their words before giving
advice, but, like common mortals,
they frequently find that second
thoughts are best. A lady recently
consulted Count Tolstoi as to how
she could best dispose of her surplus
wealth, amounting to about 800, 900.
Burn it, replied the Count promptly.
But in a day or two he remembered
that riches are only a curse when i'm
properly used and serve as many
worthy purposes as evil ones, so ne
wrote to the lady outlining a plan for
the expenditure Of the money in
charitable work. 1t is to be hoped
that the eccentric Russian nobleman
will not be so hasty in future, but
think twice before giving advice.

SHE DREAMS BE COMES AGAIN.
By MARY L. FEArHERsToNHAUGH.


When the sweet sunshine softly falls
Athwart the golden grain,
And gentle summer smiles once more,
She dreams he ONE again.
The music Of his laughter rings
Around the homestead door,
And through the swinging garden gate
he comes just as OF yore.
And then O sound Of signing wind
Breathes Of the distant sea,
Where on q ship through storm and mist
Is driven ruthlessly.
And there again the youthful face,
But blanched by fear and pain,
As DER the seething foam he looked
And called his mothers name.
His mothers name she heard it then,
Though leagues between them lay
OF trackless sands and angry seas
And wreaths OF mist and spray.
She knew It when her darling called
To her his last farewell;
Upon her sad foreboding heart
His tones distinctly fell.
Andthough her gentle lips may smile,
Her thoughts are far from home,
Beside his lonely sea-girt grave
Under the restless foam.
And ever when the winds low tone
Signs DER the blooming shore,
She listens to the p~laintive sound
And dreams he comes once more.

Senator Henderson, of Nebraska, a
member of the Boone and Crockett Club,
has a collection of antlers and heads OF
different kinds of big game that is very
fine. He also has a room filled with
Indian relics and historic articles from
old pioneer days, with a mammoth col
lection of pictures, photographs and
paintings of early scenes in the history
Of our country. His paintings embrace
pretty much all kinds of American
game.
Carl Schurz has a collection that IS
very choice, but not large. He has al
ready suggested sending them to the
Fair and strongly favors the proposed
exhibition.
1t Is Commissioner Roosevelt's idea
that q suitable building should be set

For the 10 or a dozen years ust pre-
ceding the death of p. T. Barnum he
had really taken no active part in the
management of the great institution with
which his life had been 80 closely identi-
fed. Everyone knew this. or should have
known it, Mr. Barnum never claimed
to be circus man, but he did claim to
be Snowman. During the latter part of
his life the Greatest Show on Earth was
managed by his equal partner, J. A. Bal
ley, and the wonderful versatility Of the
latter gentleman was best shown in the
tremendous novelties and Innovations he
introduced into the business, in many in
stances even going so far as to amaze
and surprise Mr.. Barnum himself by their
ingenious worth and amusing instruction.
Every detail connected with the vast in
stitution was and is still personally di-
rected by Mr.. Bailey. and every feature

signed. selected or invented by him, but,
of course, the name of Bsrnum. it's big
