Pursued nv the Tide.

At the little town Of Granville, in
Normandy, there are treacherous
tides, which suddenly overwhelm the
low shore. One of the perilous in
cidents resulting from their rising is
described in Henry Blackburn's car
tistic Travel" Two friends were one
day absorbed in examining the rocks
at some distance from the shore, and
in collecting the numerous marine
plants which abound in their crevices,
when suddenly one of the pair called
out, mercy on us! forgot the tide,
and here it comes! !"
Turning toward the shore, they
saw a stream Of water running rapid
ly between them and the sand. They
quickly descended the rocks, but be-
fore they could reach the ground "the
sand was in stripes and the water in
sheets" They then ran for the
shore, but before they had proceeded
far they were met by f1sher-gir
who called:
"The wave! the wave, it is coming.
Turn and run for the rock, or you are
LOST"
They did turn, and saw, far out at
sea, large wave rolling toward the
shore. The girl led the way, and the
two friends strained every nerve to
keep pace with her. AS they neared
the rock the wave was beginning to
roll in, and for the last ten steps they
were up to their knees in water; but
they had reached the goal.
"Quick! quick" cried the girl point
ing upward. There is the passage
to the cross at the top: but if the Sec
ond wave comes, we shall be too
late"
She scrambled on for hundred
yards, until she came to a assure in
the rock six or seven feet wide,
along which the water was rushing
like a mill-sluice. With some dill
Guilty they reached the upper rocks.
There they rested for a moment,
when another great wave rolled in,
and the water ran along the little
platform where they were sitting.
They rose and mounted the rocky
points. which are never quite covered
with water, and clustered together
for support.
In a few moments the suspense
was over. The girl pointed to the
shore, where they could see people
waving their handkerchiefs, and
whence came the faint sound of a
cheer.
"They think the tide has turned, :"
S aid she, "and they are shouting to
cheer u.s."
She was right: the tide had turned.
Another wave rolled up and wet
their feet, but when it passed the
water had fallen.

Queer Chinese Customs.

In full mourning among the Chi
nese the black strands of the queue
are replaced by white ones and in
second mourning by light blue or
green. 1t is an objectionable breach
of etiquette for an inferior to enter
the presence of superior with his
pig-tail wound round his neck or
head, and the greatest insult one
man can offer another is to pull his
pig-tail. It seems very odd to see
sailors on ship or in barracks comb
ing each others tresses, or coolies at
the street corners performing the
same friendly office. Custom forbids
a man to wear beard and mustache
until he becomes grandfather.

SACRED DEER IN JAPAN.
Tame Creatures to Be Found in Queer
Mountain Town.

Tame Creatures to Be Found in a Queer
Mountain Town.
Humphrey B. Kendrick, a former
resident of Santa Barbara, CAL, who
has Just returned to San Francisco
after a residence of several years in
Japan, gives the Examiner an inter-
esting description of a little mountain
town named Nara in that country:
Everyone, or almost everyone in
Nara has deer" said Mr.. Kendrick,
"and they are as plentiful there as
dogs in an American town, while
around the temples are great num-
bers, ali sacred to the japanese. And
they are very tame, coming up even
TO the stranger and almost begging
for gingerbread, of which they are
very fond, and which the tourist is
expected to buy for them.
when the Emperor, a great many
years ago, came into Nara, and Nara,
you know, was the first capital of
Japan, he rode on white deer, and
that at once made the deer sacred,
and at the same time it became fash
ionable to own one, and now they
are the most common thing to be seen
in the place, unless it be lanterns,
which are actually without number,
and of every kind and quality. A
lantern in Japan is very different
from one here, for there they are
stone pillars, although there are
some of metal, and made to be sus-
pended. / saw some of bronze in
one of the temples which had been
brought from Holland long ago. But,
while there are so many, the Japan
csc will never count them.
"That would be very wicked thing
in the sight of the gods, who keep
the number a careful secret. And
though sacrilegious foreigners have
made the attempt no two OF them
have ever counted the same. Another
feature is the goldfish ponds-no
such fish as you see here, but Il and
ii inches long, and of such a deep
color, darker than orange even. And
those with the fantails are beautiful.
All of the ponds and lakes are full
of them, and as the water is very
clear it is marvellous thing to stand
on the shore and watch them dart
through the ripples, and when out IN
a boat the very bottom assumes a
golden hue.

HE STRUCK BILLY PATTERSON.
And, Owing to Billy's Size, He Did Not Say
ANYTHING About His Deed.

And, Owing to Billy's Size, He Did Not Say
Anything About His Deed.
Who struck Billy Patterson? About
fifty years ago this was a question
asked very frequently to illustrate
the unexpected defeat of a candidate
or doubtful or unknown matter.
But who struck the blow was never
found out. An exchange processes
to have found out. and says it was
George w. Tillerton of Georgia. This
is the story:
Last evening we published an ex-
haustive review of a famous case
that of William Patterson of Georgia,
the same Billy that was ''struck."
This week we publish what is be-
.lieved to be an authentic answer to
the well-known conundrum. Mrs
Jennie G. Conely of Athol, n. Y,
says that her father, George w. Til
lerton, who lived at Franklin, Ga,
at that time, and who has long since
died, struck that historic blow. AS
related in "Notes for the Curious"
last week, Patterson was a Baltimore
merchant, who had retired to his es-
tate near GAINESVILLE, Ga, where he
became entangled in the famous broil
and received the blow which caused
him to repeat the question, ''Who
struck Billy Patterson" Being a
powerful man, witt, fist like a
sledge-hammer, Patterson searched
long and patiently for the man with
audacity enough to strike him, but
his search availed nothing. TillertOn
kept the secret from his own family
until the old man became so persist
ent in his efforts to discover the per-
petrator of the deed, even going so
far as to leave the country when he
feared the 81, 900 reward would cause
some one to reveal his identity to
the enraged Billy. After the death
of Patterson, Tillerton refused to
mention the affair. which was the
best course to pursue, as his friends
would doubtless have twitted him
with playing the olive sheep racket
over the dead lion" It is only recent
ly that Mrs. Conely has heard of the
reward waiting a claimant in the
Franklin County (GeorgiD Court Of
Record. The writer has not been in
formed whether or not she will make
an effort to secure the 81 900 offered
as a reward for her fathers rashness.
Future developments will add a third
and last chapter to this interesting
bit of history.

Being taught gradually, he finds
experiment quite easy. After awhile
he will approach the box and put up
one foot. Then you tap him on the
other foot, and in a few more lessons
he will consent to get up on the box.
You gradually raise the height of the
box. In the same way you teach him
to place his foot on an upright bar,
placed on the corner of the box.
I can take new horse and in three
days so teach him that he will strike
a position with his foot on pedestal.
But, of course, a novice in horse
training could not do that.
A New Scholar.
Sometimes I have to add stran-
ger to the group. BY talking ana
pantomine | give the others to I'M
derstand that the newcomer is to be
a member of the class. And in this,
as in other respects, the horses be-
have a good deal like boys in school
when a strange boy comes into the
class. The horses look critically at
the visitor, and. as boys do, some
times persecute him. They will bite
him, and he, seeing that he is not
welcome, will make an attempt to
leave. If he does | put him back in
his position. I pat the others on the
back and make them understand
that they must allow the newcomer
to remain. He will gradually become
acquainted with the rest. And then,
with the others, he, too, will pick
at the next new horse.
After the horses have been trained
to perform various tricks they not
only enjoy taking part in the exhibit
tion, but sometimes when a horse IS
negligent or reluctant in going
through his act, those next to him
will urge him, and, by biting or
crowding, seek to punish him for not
performing promptly or properly.
Teaching Horse to Fire Pistol.
TO teach hore to fire pistol IS
long and difficult piece of work.

THE BELL RINGERS.

First. I teach him to hold small,
fiat piece of soft pine wood, ABOUT
half an inch thick, in his mouth, or,
rather. between his front teeth. AL
tirst he will spit it out. | put it

him. Finally he will relax ms grip

will shut his teeth and hold on 10 IL.

I nick it up and gently replace 1t.

him to hold the stick. and that IT

course, it will be necessary to enlarge
the theater seats, and, in fact, the
whole question of space is bound to
become a problem under the crino-
line regime. Think of the elevators
and street cars, and then the Easter
parade! Carriages will have to be
ruled off the street for the day, while
the entire thoroughfare becomes a
sea of billowy crinoline. There will
be a great demand for carpenters.
Just think of the doors and halls to
be widened!
AS for dancing, that will have to
be done at arms length. A system
Of signals should be devised, such as
hosting colored lanterns or waving
different flags, SO that partners may
communicate with each other. Kiss
ing will probably become lost art,
at least among women.

"pick that up; give it to me, )" and he
will obey. / now take q strap OF
leather, and so arrange pistol that
it can be fired off by pulling the strap.
The pistol is not loaded at first. He
must be taught that the strap is the
object he is to take. Next you load
the pistol with a blank cartridge
from which two-thirds of the powder
has been extracted, then let him pull
the strap. The report of the pistol
makes slight noise and the horse
will probably start back. Without
reloading the pistol let him pull the
strap a few times to convince him
that he is not going to be hurt. At
ter an interval try another cartridge.
Gradually show him that the cart
ridge will not hurt him any more
than the strap. Reduce or increase
the sound according to the way he
behaves, until finally you can use a
full cartridge.
The Most Difficult Lesson.
Probably the most difficult thing to
teach horse is the meaning Of words
and sign language. | am careful
when utter words to make physi-
cal movement to indicate their mean
ing. Give the horse the word, and at
the same time in some way show him
the movement you wish him to make.
You want to teach him to obey the
command to turn to the right. Each
time you give the order turn him to
the right, pat him approvingly, go
away, and again tell him to turn to
the right. Continue turning him to
the right until he knows the meaning
of the command. 1t is by this proc
ess that one horse will learn another
horses name. In the presence of the
animal | call another horse, which
may be standing over in corner, by
name. He comes to me. The horse
who is learning his lesson knows 1T is
not his name that is called, and that
he is not called for. He hears me
continually call the other horse
"John," and he learns that "John" is
the other horses name. In this way
my group of twenty-four horses have
each learned to know the name of the
other.
Furnishing Horse.
When | am training horse for any
particular trick and he does not 60
through his work in a proper way, l
tap him gently with the whip, but
only enough to attract his attention
to the fact that [ am not exactly

How Trousers Originated.

The women of Judah, it seems,
were the first wearers of garments
in bifurcated form, and man, per-
ceiving the convenience and COM
fort of this article of dress, evolved
by the superior intelligence of wom-
an. appropriated it to his use, and
doomed his womankind to incumber
their limbs with flowing robes, which
render it impossible for them to cope
with man in the useful avocations.
