Doesn't Like Policemen.

There is n horse in this town which
has double mission in life. One part
of it is to get to fires as rapidly as posi-
bic with ton or two Of apparatus be-
hind it; the other is TO make as many
vacancies as possible in the police force.
The animal is a valuable one, well
trained and good TO look at. For the
firemen 1t has professional regard, to-
ward citizens in general it has the
haughtiness which generally goes forth
with place in the public service, but
toward policemen it displays the fiercest
of antipathies. The horse belongs TO
one of the companies stationed far down
town, and the engine house is rather
cramped. People having occasion 10
enter the place have to pass close to the
animals stall, and as result the men,
Der of the police force who has business
in the house is likely to have a lively
time of it. To be safe he has to climb
around back Of a tender and then make
his way along with the caution needed
to keep him out of range of the horses
hoofs.
If he comes near the animal, it is a
bite or "a kick, according to the end
which is approached. The firemen who
are thoroughly acquainted with the pc
culiarities Of the steed have very rea-
sonable explanation of its aversion to
brass buttons. 1t is that at some time
policeman dubbed it, at time when
the excitement of fire made him for
get that perhaps horse may have
longer memory than taxpayer and
more time to devote to carrying out
schemes of revenge. Ever since that
day no policeman has been able to al
proach the horse without having good
reason to repent his temerity.-New

Reply Paid Postal Cards.

Reply paid postal cards have been in
use in Austria for many years, and would
be economical and convenient in domes-
tic as well as in foreign correspondence.
They are composed of two unseparated
postal cards, folded in the form of a sim
gle card, and need no other fastening.
A correspondent can insure correct
ly addressed and probably prompt an
swer by writing his full address ON the
reply fold of the card before mailing it;
the card, on its first journey, being fold
ed so as to cover the reply address. The
receiver has simply to write his answer
on the reply card, tear it off the inquiry
card and remail it.
If one does not care to preserve the in
quiry or to write long answer, the
cards need not be separated. In that
case a reply perfectly ineligible, un-
equivocal and binding for all business
purposes may be written in one or two
words in answer to direct question.
The words "yes" or mo" or "forty"
or al Temple Place" or Boston" or
Smith & Jones" or "6 per cent" or any
other short replies, signed with initials
or full name, without any heading of
place or date, would, in connection with
the attached inquiry card, convey as full
and definite an answer, and show as
plainly when, where and by whom it
was written, as an answer ON an ordi-
nary card or letter that contain besides
place, date and address a summary Of
the inquiry to which it is reply

The original discoverer of New Zea-
land found but three species of nam.
mails, two bats and very small rat
called kiore by the natives. The kiore
is now almost extinct at times. but oc
casionally appearsin in extraordinary mum
bers, coming, nobody knows whence.
and going, no one knows whittier. In
1885 the west coast (no other portion) Of
the island was overrun by countless
millions of them, each pressing forward
as rapidly rs possible, seeming to have
but one idea in view-to get away from
the place with all speed. They were
never seen to eat and moved at steady
gait night and day.
Thousands and thousands of them per
ished from hunger and the attacks of a
larger imported rat. For eleven weeks
the coast for 150 miles literally swarmed
with kiores, but at last they suddenly
disappeared. That was six years ago
but the scientists have not yet de-
cided where they came from or where
they went.-"New Zealand After Fifty

THE FACTS.
tCommuication.1

Many of the readers of the papers of
this county, perhaps, have noticed the
reflection made on me by Mr.. A. b. Nc
Lain by intimating that l was RESPONSE
BILE for the election Of a Democratic Sem
ator four years ago.
To the people of jefferson county such
statements cannot be made without
bringing to their minds the thought of
both injustice to me and condemnation
OF their own wishes and instructions.
and among the four thousand Republi-
can voters of this county, who by their
ballots endorsed my conduct in follow
ing the instructions of the Republican
party in this county by sacrificing N.Y.
self for its interests, there were none
more determined that / should remain
in the field than Mr.. McLain.
In justice to myself and Jefferson
county, | would just state that there
never was more manly contest, or one
more free from corruption than that of
four years ago. 1t will be remembered
that was willing, and did propose to Mr..
Hood for both to withdraw and for our
conferees to select any Jefferson county
man as the nominee of this district, as il
was conceded by all to be Jefferson
eounty's time to have that office. This
proposition was refused by Mr.. Hood.
who said "If we are to have Jefferson
county Senator we would prefer YOU to
any other man." This county was de-
termined to have its rights and would
have refused me the privilege to with
draw, had | asked it. / feel that Mr..
McLain has made mistake to mention
the contest of four years ago, and do
ask the Republicans of this county to
Investigate and recall my course in that
campaign, and / think they will easily
lind that my course at that time was en-
tirely in harmony with the wishes of
the Republican voters of the county.
They will also find that | am man who
will follow the Instructions of the Re-
publican party of this county and will
remain trust worthy to those who place
confidence in me. VIM. G. BOND.

STATE SENATORIAL QUESTION.
What the Indiana Papers Say of Capt.
James @. Mitchell.


A welcome visitor to our town last
week was Capt. James G.. Mitcnell. of
Perrysville, jefferson county. He is an
extremely companionable gentleman
and thorough business man. Although
he was not here fence building" yet it
is known that the Captain is candi-
date for State Senate in this district.
He is competent for the honorable
position-and without disparagement
to the aspirations of candidates pre-
sented for the place by Indiana county
we may freely say that il Mr.. Mitchell
secures the nomination, this county
will give him an old fashioned popular
majority. He has kept himself from the
contentious that have invoked degree
of hostility between the working forces
in the several counties of the district
Indiana Progress, March 16, '02.
Captain JIG. Mitchell. Of Perrysville,
jefferson county, while returning from
a business trip to the east. stopped off
here day or two. The Captain is a
candidate for Senator in jefferson
county. Indiana county will urge the
selection of the candidate who secures
the nomination in this county on the
9th of April: but should Captain Mitchell
secure the endorsement of his own
county and the district nomination. he
will doubtless get the solid Republican
vote OF this county. He has been for
tunate in keeping out of the Senatorial
complications and would not be handi-
capped, besides he is clever fellow
and would make an efficient Senator

Sunday. II we must have Republican

farmers organizations which was held
in Reynoldsville on the lth of March,
1892, unanimously endorsed Mr.. Mitchell.

Prevention of the Flight of Birds.

To prevent birds from flying, without
the barbarous and injurious system
sometimes practiced of cutting their
wings, it will be found sufficient b tie
together with thread three OF four of
the largest feathers of one wing. This
destroys the balance, the wings do not
act symmetrically in the air, and fight
is rendered impossible. Fowls, pigeons,
etc., may be kept within bounds in this
simple fashion.-London Tit-Bits.
