ABOUT HORSES.
Some Pc uliar characteristics of Ma

Some Pc uliar characteristics of Mans
Fest Friend Among Animals.
There are many odd things about
the anatomical and Physiological
makeup of the horse that are seldom
noticed or mentioned, even by the So
called written .'authorities" on such
subjects, or by veterinary surgeons
Emctlcs have no more eject upon a
living sick representative Of the gem
US equus than they would on marble
representation OF Alexander's old
Bucephaius. Do you know why this
is? 1t IS because a horse is unpro-
vided with a gall bladder. When one
of the human family gets badly in
jured the gall bladder acts in SYM
pathy. and the result is ..deathly
sickness" or fainting away entirely.
With the horse it is different, not be-
cause he is not sensitive to pain, but
for the reasons given. Some au-
thorities consider that the
most highly organ Ged of tho domes-
tic creatures. One even says: There
Is no living creature, not even hys-
terical woman, so nervously sensitive
as a horse; and, as for the contention
that horse does not feel pain, I
think that he even suffers moro from
an injury than man would from a
hurt of the same magnitude" And
yet this enormously seusitiven
creature has been known to eat q
hearty meal when his entrails were
trailing on the ground as Il result OF
an encounter with trained bull in
the arena, or from gunshot wounds
received in battle with human foes
This for the reason that he could not
possibly get ''sick at his stomach"
because there is no overflow of gall to
cause such sensations.

Guests in st. Louis Lodging House
Escape with Difficulty.
ST. LOUIS. Feb. 27.-At o'clock this
morning the occupants of the lodging
house at 1880 Market Street were
awakened by a fire that had gained
such Roadway as to throw them into a
panic. The building was a three
story structure and over twenty-five
people were sleeping in it. The fire
started on the second floor and the
smoke was so sitting as to make egress
difficult. The fire department had con-
siderable difficulty in preventing the
occupants from jumping from the win
dows. All the inmates escaped. how,
ever but nearly all lost their entire
clothing. The loss on building will be
about S1.NGp.
NEW YORK. Feb. 27.-The factory
building, 81 to SIT East Nineteenth
Street, was destroyed by fire this morn
ing. The building was occupied by
William Rowland, a ship joiner, and
Horn & Fanshaw, bung-makers. A
model for a big steamer which was to
have been exhibited at the Worlds Fair
was destroyed. The loss on the build
ing is $95 900 and on stock $4,000.

shearman's idea of Public Letters In
dorsed by Mr.. Cleveland.
NEW YORK. Feb. 27,-Thomas G..
Sherman. the well known free trader
and political ecorc mist, some weeks
ago addreE sed letter to President
elect Cleveland on the subject of
tariff reform. Mr.. Shear1nan said the
people had stated in an emphatic
manner that they desired the tariff
reformed on radical lines, as de-
clared in the Chicago platform.
He had been led to believe from what
Mr.. Cleveland had frequently stated to
him that Mr. Cleveland would be glad
to receive suo gestions as to the best
methods of reducing the tariff He
(Shearmanl therefore proposed to write
a series of letters on the subject adj
dressed to Mr.. Cleveland With Mr.
Cleveland's permission these letters
would be made public on the day they
were sent to the President-elect
In reply Mr.. Cleveland said that it
was his desire to receive suggestions
from such a good authority as Mr..
Sherman and he would give due con-
sidera ton. He agreed to the plan for
publishing the letters, saving it would
no doubt stimulate thought among the
people. AS Mr.. Sherman will take
the ground that the tariff ought to be
abolished altogether the Endorsement
of his plan by the Presidential ect is
regarded significant.

BURIAL OF THE DEAD.
Curious Traditions That still Exist In
Foreign Countries.

Curious Traditions That still Exist In
Foreign Countries.
The Mohammedans always, whether
in their own country or one of adOp-
ton, bury without coffin or casket Of
any kind. During the time of the old
Roman empire the dead bodies cf all
except suicides were buried. The
Greeks sometimes buried their dead
in the ground, but moro generally
cremated them, in imitation rf the
Romans. In India, up till tho last
few years, the wife, either acc >rding
to her wishes or otherwise, was Gre
mated on the same funeral pyrc that
converted her dead husbands remains
into ashes.
When a child dies in Greenland the
natives bury a live dog with it, the
dog to be used by Ghe child as a
guide to the other world. When
questioned in regard to this peculiar
superstition, they will only answer:
"A dog can find his way anywhere. ]"
The natives of Australia tie the
hands of their dead together and pail
out their nails; this is for fear that
the corpse may scratch it's way out Of
the grave and become a vampire.
The primitive Russians place a certifi-
cate of character in the dead persons
hands, which is to be given to ST.
Peter at the gates of hcAven.-Pear

Chicago Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.--The downward ten
dency in the wheat market was resumed
this morning The decline was held in
check a while by the uncertainty of the Wis
IDLE supply report. When the final figures
were in there was an unexpected decrease
which caused rally of about &c. This
was seized as good opportunity to sell by
many in the trade, and the price dropped to
a lower figure than on the early decline
The May price started 7614c and barely
touched 769c, with a rally at once to 16$sc
On the visible supply decrease the price got
up to 761500763ac, or about the Saturday
closing price. The break at midday was to
76c. July sold 75s9c and 75c. There was a
quiet period of half an hour when the
bearish feeling returned and with panicky
feeling in the pit the price broke quickly to
$3.50. July was less weak, but broke past
the 75c mark and sold &c under May at
74&4c The May touched IS 3-Sc and closed
7534@755Sc; July closed 747sc.
The weakness in wheat was the cause Of
much selling in corn. There were two
things which prevented worse break in
prices. The export clearances for the day
reached 1872 600 bushels from Atlantic ports.
Then the shorts in the market were numer-
GUS and ready to pick up the corn on the de-
touched 1870 with a rally to 43l5c early.
When wheat broke later the May price
went to 1890 with rally to 423U427sc be-
fore o'clock. July sales were 433s0o4334 c
CT to 4314c, holding later at 453sc Corn
closed 3Sc under Saturday prices for lead
ing months at 421Gc May and 43 Csc July.
There was something of contest among
the big operators in provisions early.
The shortage in hogs gave the
market firmness, but the manipula-
tors made prices irregular May pork
sold $3.50 early and off to $lS.279
with the second bulge to S1S.45 followed by
break to $3.50 and the close at 1925.
May lard closed at a gain of zoe at s12.7O.

Crooked All Around.
CLEVELAND. Ohio. Feb. 27.-Mr. w.
b. Fasig of the Tattersalls-Fasig COM
pany was asked yesterday about the
sale of Monbars. 2:11$4. about the sale
of whom there have been some ugly
stories in New York. At the sale,
which took place at the Tattersalls in
New York. there is said to have been
by-bidding and that the great 3-year-
old was bought in at $4,000 by his
owners, Richtield and Leathers
Mr. FaSig said: i hate to say it. but
the whole affair seems to me to be
much like skin game. 1t was I'M
fortunate but there was NO way to pre-
vent the by-bidding until after the sale
had been made and that was too late.
believed the sale was a bonafide one
until it was said that Richfield and
feathers had bought back the colt from
his buyer at the sale at an advance of
50 500. That settled it in my mind |
think that it was crooked transaction
