HOW HE Is STABILIZED.

The Arabs never tie their horses by
the head. The common way of securing
them is to put an iron clasp around one
of the hind ankles and fasten it with a
paddock and key and to this clasp is at
tached a long chain, the other end of
which is riveted to one Of the tent pegs.
Then the horse is free to rove about and
bo cannot ho cytoFon

THE TRUE ARAB sTEEDs.

The Arab horses are small, as have
said; about the size and very much of the
same shape as the famous trotter Flora
Temple. Flora Temple was little bay
mare, and she mad some Arabian blood in
her veins.
The best Arabs are apt to be bay in col
or; some are chestnut, few are gray, oc-
casionally one is pure white, or coal black.
There are no roam, piebald, dun or zeal
leo" horses among them.
Their backs are slightly and gracefully
curved, their bodies round and swelling,
and they carry themselves proudly, as If
they SAID (as wrote an English traveler)
''Look at me; am l not pretty?''
Their heads are their great beauty.
The forehead is large, and swells out in
the middle, in a graceful curve, and the
eyes are large, soft and intelligent. The
ears are delicate, finely shaped, and when
they are pricked forward the points
almost touch. The nose is narrow, run
ming down to a point, and it is an old say
ing that an Arabian hogse might drink
out of tea cup.
Such is the thoroug hbred of the desert.
Horses are what men make them, and the
Arabian horse is hardy, courageous, gen
tie, intelligent and beautiful, because his
master, the Bedouin, is active and en-
during, because he is kind and patient,
because he values good birth and breed

swear, which was too common habit
with boys.

a much smaller mark. The next bullet
sang close beside his head, now stretched
out with rigid. slender neck-though
even to the last moment his mouth was
never opened, as the pictures invariably
represented it to be in such contests as
this.
The third bullet ploughed a furrow
across his back and filed the animal
with rage. Swinging around like a fash
of yellow light, he thrust his head
straight toward me with vicious energy,
until more than half his body
was extended beyond any support, and
for an instant l thought he meant to
dart through the air like living lance.
Dropping the revolver dashed forward
and with one blow of the snakes stick
broke his knotted neck, and the with
ing, deadly coil of red and gold dropped
like spent rocket into the water and slid
away down the rapids.

The National Flower.

The poetic presentment of the
claims of the Pansy for our National
Flower, by Miss Helen F. Pursell,
in recent issue of the SENTINEL,
is meeting with hearty response
from our exchanges. From the
many "Boquets" of compliment,
we take space for the following from
the Columbus Journal. We might
take issue with the Journal, in its
praise subdued somewhat, of the gol-
den rod, road side weed, but will
leave that for the road supervisor.
The compliment SO gracefully paid to
the SENTINEL contributor, makes
pretty every thing mentioned in
this relation.

Uncle John Sherman. the tinan-
cier, has got tired of his bastard
dollar and now wants to get rid of IT..
He has introduced bill, not in
words, but in effect. to repudiate
John Sherman. He wants the fur
ther purchase of silver discontinued.
On the strength of this law as it
stands, he went into the Findlav
boom, investing in doomed silver
dollars. Now he wants out on a
gold basis It's an old trick. He de-
monetized silver. He made the trade
dvllar. He flooded the country with
debased currency, then called up
the people and demanded payment
on gold basis.
Mckay says with whine, the
silver dollar is worth only 81 cents.
Well, it's your dollar. Iou made
it. You imposed it Oh the people.
Now you cry about 1t and think to
put the scab on the Democracy.
Pursell is more lordly, more lofty.
He sails hign. He is in favor of
whatever Harrison and Mckinley
and Grosvenor and Nickrs wants.
He is not concerned about wild cats,
nor trade dollars, nor debased coin,
nor gold standards. Give me, says
Sylvester, give me what the bosses
want. That's my doctrine.
In the meantime, when the Demo
Gratis come into power the country
will be supplied with honest money,
and every man who honestly earns a
dollar will be paid with money rs
good as gold or old wheat in the mill !.

That Long Felt Want.

In discussing the condition of the
sick Republican party, and the re-
quirements for convalescence, Bro.
Mckay in the last issue of his Or
gan says:
"We need men with clean records,
men whose LOYALTY is so weak that
money or position connot buy their
influence"
We all, of course, concede the
"need of men with clean records
but we did not know that loyalty
should be weak so as not to be pur-
chasable. The stronger Republi-
cans loyalty, then tie more likely
he is to sell ont. We have lad such
a suspicion, but was never told so
before by authority.
Bro. Mckay, we thank you for
your candor. We hope you may
find the weak brethren able to get
to the polls and vote for strong Dem
oc ats, at least not too weak to tah e
two dollars and stay at home.

THE CONQUEST OF OHIO.

Col. Wes. McClintcck. The brill
liant editor OF the Defiance Repub-
lican Express, in a well considered
article in The last issue of his pa
per. en:Itlad "The Conquest of
Ohio" gives fitting praise 10 the
masterly management of Senator
Brice III his leadership of the Ohio
aggressive Democracy.
Bro. Wes took his taste 10 liking
Cal Brice from the uoCKING SEN
TINFL. in the service of which pa
per, some three years ago. he did
good service for his favorite by
countering the plays of Parson
Gould, who led the Thomas con-
iingent of Hooking In that cam
paign.
But the mention of Brice and
the presentment Of him us type
of leader 10 admire, is only text
for the glorlficaiion of his Repub-
lican ideal hero, Gov. Foraker. He
holds HIM up to the admiration Of
the shalte republican forces
and at the same time pOnrs con
tumely on Mckinley and "overled
politicians who simply use TIE ir
position to ihe end that they may
spit such republicans as ihey do
not like on the gridiron of malice,
after the election is over"
And The freuzied Wesley of the
Defiant Republican Express caus-
tlcal!y concludes by This graphic
pen picture of the 'Over-fed poll
liclans' of his party in power
"Hence The necessity of having
something more than lot of time
stained. (ShermaD wind-shaken
scare crows (Grosvenor) in the
political corntield will be conceded
by every intelligent Republican
in the State"
Well may the youg Republican
editor sound the alarm, and shake
up if he can the PROSTATE, gOuly
leaders of his party.

HE LEFT THE SAFE, But S63, 900 OF
THE PEOPLES GOOD MONEY DIS
APPEARED IN a TWINKLE
HE MAY BE IN CANADA
But OUGHT TO BE
IN JAIL

LAFAYETTE, IND, Jan. 24.-The
discovery that Augustus Cronkhlte
treasurer of Warren county, is S63, -
900 short in his accounts, has shak
en- the country from border to bord-
er. He is Republican serving his
second term.
Recently at Attica Cronkhite tried
to discount some paper. On the day
he left Wiliiamsport he made an un-
successful attempt to negotiate a
lone of $4,000. He was interested
in lumber and land scheme at Bak-
ersfield, Gala, but no explanation
can be given yetas to the disposition
of his fraudu!entIy obtained wealth.
Although extravagant IN tastes, he
was not a gambler and it is difficult
to explain into what channel the
money was turned.
His method of securing the money
was simple, but it bad limit.
When he received a payment of
taxes from the HEAVIER taxpayers of
the county he recirted to them for
the amount, but did not enter the
amount on his books, which neccess
arily exhibited a large delinquency.
Last week it became necessary by
law TO publish the delinquent list
and this publication precipitated the
exposurr of Cronkhlte's crime. Tax
PAYERS were shown to be delinquent
who had receipts from the treasurer
to show that their taxes had been
paid.
Cronkhite's assets amount to S3S,
500. All his possessions are in
real estate. He has thirty two
bondsmen. Jointly they will have
to pay between $4,000 and $4,000.
No one seems able to give satisfact-
ory explanation as to what uses he
put the money he abstracted from
the treasury. The affair has Great
ed great excitement and the people
are anxous toknow where Cronkhite
went and what he did with his i'll
gotten wealth. Some believe he IL
now in Canada.
