Horse Bre edinl.
Star

Horse breeding is one Of the important
industries OF the country, aud Of recent
years there has been a noticeable increase
in the number OF wel.bred horses. The
competition of the West Is not felt in the
Atlantic States in horse breeding as in
cattle growing. A iair idea of the rela-
tive importance of this industry in the
varying sections is given in the reports
Of the several State agents :: 'to Depart.
ment at Washington.
It is claimed by the New York State
agent that in New York the soil, grass
aud water produce horses of stronger
bone, sounder feet aud harder muscles
than the alkaline soil on which so many
Western horses are reared, aud that at
tention is given to the breeding OF a
finer class OF horses for road and cArrl-
age purposes. This claim, however, is
not admitted by those interested IN horse
breeding in the West. Improvement in
number and quality Of horses is reported
in Virginia. The introduction OF Ham
bletonian and other strains OF thorough
bred blood has been of great advantage
in North Carolina. In the cotton States,
especially the Gulf States east OF Texas,
the rule has been to purchase from Ten
nessee or Kentucky in preference to rails
ing horses, but there are signs OF some
change in this respect.
A tendency is noted in Texas to im'
provemeut through better breeds. Ken
tucky shows no tendency to reduction OF
numbers though prices are not satisiac'
tory. Through the OHIO Valley there is
little change in numbers Of horses.
Horse raising in Iowa is less absorbing as
a rural enterprise that it has been except
as to trotting stock. There is ready
sale for we'll bred horses in Missouri at
good price, aud increasing tendency to
Improvement in quality. In Kansas the
supply is greater than the demand ex-
cept for desirable drauyht horses. A
strong tendency to increase the stock OF
horses is apparent on the Pacific coast,
and especiolly in California. New York

Makina Wood Durable.

The preservation Of timber from decay
when in use aud exposed to climatic in
fuences has always been an important
matter, especially in connection with
structural work. 1t has hitherto been
held that the only way of effecting its
preservation was to deprive it of every
particle of sap or moisture, either by
slow, natural drying-seasoning as it Is
termed-or by rapid exhaustion in vacuo.
This method of procedure is in some
cases supplemented by the injection OF
creosote, or OF chemical solutions into
the pores OF the wood. II has been left
for Colonel Haskin to reverse these prac
tices with the most thorough success.
He has carried out his theory in practice
for some ten years past. The process
consists simply in placing the timber by
small wagon loads in an air tight retort
aud subjecting it TO the high pressure OF
superheated air the temperature OF which
varies from 800 to 700 degrees. The
process solidi6es the sIbumen or life
propertv Of the tree and at the sa ne time
destroys bacteria or fungi, thus preserv-
ing the wood against decay. A syndi-
cate of leading timber merchants has
been formed aud arrangements have been
made fol putting down plant and ma
chiuery for working the process ln Eng.

Writing by Proxy.

"An important branch OF literary
business nowadays is writing by proxy"
said a publisher to a Star reporter.
"This is a very busy world, and there
are good many people in it who, having
no time to produce matter for publication
themselves, employ others to do it for
them. For example, one of the best
known physicians in this country has also
a considerable reputation as a literateur.
He has published a number OF learned
medical works, besides several volumes
of fiction. Not one of them has been
written by himself. He has hired other
men to produce them, paying them so
much page. know all about it, be.
cause the volumes l speak of have been
issued from my own presses.
"That sort Of thing is very common.
I also am acquainted with distinguished
lawyer who chooses to have a literary
reputation. He thinks it helps him in
his profession, and presumably his
vanity is gratifed by it. At all events
he employs newspaper man OF ability,
with whom he is on confidential terms,
to write articles regularly for him. They
are mostly on topics which have some
reference to law. The lawyer signs his
name to them and the journalist receives
the pay. This IS advantageous to both,
because the lawyers reputation makes
the articles fetch double or even treble
what the newspaper man could sell them
for as his own. The lawyer also pro-
duces about four short stories for maga-
zines every year. These also are written
in typescript by the journalist, who gets
500 apiece for them, while the lawyer
signs his name and is content with the
glory.
"Clergymen are no longer obliged to
write their own sermons. They can buy
them at an extremely low rae, and good
ones, too. One frequently sees adver-
tisements in the newspapers offering
homlletic discourses at prices to suit the
most impoverished parson. Ii is only
one development of what is growing to
be an important industry-the business
of writing by proxy. ."-Washington

The correspondent OF an In iiau jour-
nal describes the manner IN which Lal-
luovs, the Lushai Chief who has recently
been an ally OF ours, moved his residence
from one village to another recently.
The procession moved out in Indian file,
led by the chiefs heir, a boy OF twelve
years of age, wearing quaint, gray, tall
hat, the symbol of his fathers rank, aud
loin-cloth. In one hand he carried a
bottle OF the liquor of the couatry, and
with the other led a yellow dog. Next
came "a maid of honor, bearing huge
basket Of household goods aud chattels,
and smoking no everlasting pipe Of
peace the while" She was followed by
the Prime Minister leading the chiefs
pig, to whom succeeded the chiefs wife,
clad in a divided shirt of kuki blue
cloth, aud wearing tue Royal amber
necklace. The chief himself came next.
He wore red helmet, two flannel shirts,
an evening dress coat aud waistcoat-the
latter being arranged outside the coat
and garment of lushai cloth. The
trousers belonging to the dress suit were
gracefully thrown over the left shouI-
der, a pair of gray socks, unlaced sm'
munition boots, and hagon OF liquor
completed the chiefs travelling costume.

Bald Facts About a Blush.

The capillaries, or small blood vessels,
which connect the arteries aud veins in
the body, form, particularly over the
cheeks, a network so fine that it is nec-
essary to employ a microscope to dis
tinguish them. Ordinarily the blood
passes through these vessels in normal
volumes, leaving only the natural CON-
plexion. But when some sudden emo
ton takes possession Of the heart its
action increases and an electric thrill in
stantIy leaps to the cheeks. This thrill
is nothing more than the rush of blood
through the invisible capillaries; the
color is nothing more than the blood
Just beneath the delicate surface OF tho
skin.-New York World.

A MISUNDERSTANDING.

There is funny story told in the
United States Senate of the mistake
by a member OF that body at the time
of General Arson McCook's marriage
some half dozen years ago. Senator
Dolph undertook to get up subscrlp'
ton for suitable wedding present, and,
offering the paper to one ofhis colleagues
who was somewhat deaf, explained the
case and asked for what amount he
might put his name down in the list.
The Senator fron Oregon was some
what nonplussed and considerably nettled
to meet with a point. blank refusal. The
affair was the more inexplicable as the
Senator of whom the contribution was
desired was known to be warm per-
sonal friend Of General McCook. Later
in the day the situation was uncon.
sciousIy explained by the offending sena-
tor, who remarked to a group or his
friends: "What the deuce do you sup
pose Dolph meansi He came to me to-
day, and after telling me that his cook
was going to be married, actually asked
me to contribute for a wedding present. ="

well, the most common omen for the
-eporter is the first item. If reporter
gets good item early in his rounds it
will be day of good luck for him, and
this sign never fails. A reporter who
finds a good piece of news aud forgets to
write it up will certainly meet with mis-
fortune, perhaps lose his position. If
reporter is asked to take a drink, it is
bad luck to refuse, and at the same time
it is a sure sign that his leg will be
pulled for free puff. As he don't have
to give 1t, however, he regards the pull
ing very lightly. One OF the most
omlnous signs for reporter Isl libel suit
on account of something he has written.
This always worries him. There are hun
dreds of other signs, that 1 can't think
Of, but l know them when | see them.
For instance, bad man coming in with

with an item means writing on both
