lPLENDlD SHEEP IN ENGLAND

The Finest Of All Are the Dainty
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
u The naturalist who is not too
Sproud to know the history of the
domesticated animals which are now
as native to the soil as any of the
ancient wild races could name any
district in which he found himself by
q glance at the sheep upon the hills,
SO says the Spectator. Not even
the cattle exhibit such marked diff
erences as are to be found in the
tiocks which a century OF careful Sc
lection has fitted to thrive best in
the varied soils of England. The big
Leicester sheep, with long gray wool
and white faces, are as different from
the "Cotswolds" as Newfoundland
from white poodle. In the "Cots-
wold's" will be found the original of
the ss"baa lamb" of the nursery.
These sheep are tall, with white wool
in locks, and with tufts upon the
head and forehead. The Lincoln
shire sheep are more like those of
Leicester, but heavier in the fleece,
coarser and more fitted for life in the
marshes. They have, perhaps the
most Intelligent faces of any sheep
but the refined South Downs. We
noticed a Lincoln eve endeavoring to
open sack OF cakes by putting her
loot into the mouth and drawing
out the contents as it lay on the
ground in the next pen. Romnev
marsh has it's own breed of sheep,
something like the Lincolns. But OF
all the flocks of England the South
Downs must win the palm. Their
short-clipped and delicate wool is
felted together like moss. The hand
sinks into it with difficulty. The
form is beautiful and rounded, and
though apparently so finely built,
their weight is great. The close yell
low-gray fleece fits over the head like
cap, disclosing the face and nose.
covered with short gray hair-not
wool. The features are extremely
dainty and the movements of the
mouth, as the sheep nibbes its fra
grant supper of trefoil and clover, re-
semble those OF some delicate foreign
rodent. Their heads are far prettier
than those of deer-almost as refined
as that of the gazelle. These sheep
undergo an elaborate toilet every
morning. Clipping them is an art in
which few excel. Their coats are
trimmed, brushed and damped, and
pressed flat with a setting board and
finally tinted for the day. The
Hampshires, black.faced and Roman
nosed, are also rouged.

London. Feb. :-In the house of com.
mons to-day Ellis Askmeade Bartlett
(Conservative) questioned the govern
RENT as to the advices it had re ,eived
from Hawaii, and further desired enlight-
eminent as to what the British govern
ment intended to do in the matter. Sir
Edward Gray, parliamentary secretary
of tie foreign office, replied in effect that
the information received by the govern
ment generally agreed with the cable
news published in the newspapers. He
added the government as at present ad-
vised did not intend to send war ships
to the islands. The government believed
that the lives and property of British sub
jects in Hawaii were safe under Ameri-
can protection. Continuing, Sir Edward
said that it was possible that British
war ship on the way from Acapulco,
Mex, would touch at Honolulu as she
was going to Esquimault. In conclusion
Sir Edward declared there was no foun-
dation whatever for the report that the
British government had made a protest
to the government at Washington regard
ing the Hawaiian islands. A question
put by Sir Francis Sharp-Howell Con
servative) to Right Hon. Sir U. Kay
Shuttleworth, secretary to the admiralty,
elected similar response.

Victims Must Settle.

Des Moines. Iowa. Feb. 3.-The Bo-
hemlan oats swindlcs came to the sur
lace IN the supreme court yesterday in a
case appealed from Madison county. The
court holds that the Bohemian oats
notes are worthless between the original
parties, but are good and collectable in
the hands of an innocent purchaser. The
decision affects many cases and means
that the swindled parties will have to
pay for their past follies. In the last
legislature a bill was introduced to pro-
tect victims against payment under the
construction of innocent purchasers, but
was vetoed by the governor. Many of
the swindled parties have paid the notes,
but hundreds of others resisted payment
pending a decision in the case.

pittsburg, Feb. 3.---The jury in the case
of Robert ]. Beattie, charged with being an
accomplice in the Homestead poisonings,
brought in verdict this morning of guilty
on all the six indictments. The jury was
out only seven minutes The sudden con-
viction was a surprise to the attorneys, but
as the jury had all night to sleep on it, the
short time Of the deliberations may be ac-
counted for. Deattie almost broke down,
but in few minutes recovered his self
possession. There was no demonstration in
the court room when the verdict was an
nounced. The defendant was locked up
again in default of $4,000 bail. AT the con-
clusion Of the poisoning case Jack Clifford.
one Of the leaders in the great Homestead
strike, was placed on trial ON charge of

Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1893-09-26

Speaker Crisp has said that vote on
the repeal of the federal election law
must be taken October 10. In other
words, in aiding his party to overcome
this-to it--obnoxious measure, he has
adopted more drastic closure rule than
even "Czar" Reed ever employed.
This is of course, gratifying to Mr..
Reed, who sees the course the Democrats
once abused him for taking now followed
by the Democrats themselves. In fact
they have out-Heroded Herod and Herod
can not help being pleased at the implied
fattery. But what the country at large
would like to know is the excuse tho con-
gressional majority has for this extra
ordinary conduct.
Congress was called togetherfor the ex-
press purpose of silver legislation. The
president went so far as to say that even
the tariff could wait, and there were no
other subjects mentioned i'll the call.
That the house did its full duty in the
silver matter is admitted. But that gives
it no right to begin moddling with the
election laws, thing it was never called
upon to consider. And what is worse,
this very meddling is seriously embarrass-
ing tho chances of silver repeal in the
senate, the very thing which congress was
called in session to consider.-Ch Chicago
