Ny Lord Buys a Bell.

Among the distinguished arrivals
at the Bulnet House was a titled
Englishman, Lord William Brooks
With Lady Brooks and valet and
maid accompaniment the Briton was
"doing Hanelica" in great style.
He is reputed to be very wealthy and
eccentric and on his way from
Washington, where he spent some
time, came via the C. and o. line.
While en- route the bell on the loco
motive that drew his train attracted
his attention. owing to the peculiar
sweetness of its tone, and when the
train reached the Central station his
valet was commanded to go to the
engineer and ascertain the price of
the bell and buy it. OF course the
engineer had no voice in the matter
and so informed the lackey, who re-
ported to his lordship. Determined
to have the bell, the eccentric lord
visited the c. and o. officials, and
after quite a lot of dickering the
railway men put good price ON the
bell and sold 1t. The coveted piece
of brass was securely packed and
sent to his lordship's English adj
dress. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Novel Protection For Hor.e..


The enormous heat which prevailed
in the south of France induced an In
ventive genius in Bordeaux to pro-
vide his horses with straw hats, and
the scheme proved so successful that
very soon all the cab, bus and cart
horses in the neighborhood were
rugged out with similar headgear.
The latter covers the eyes and fore
head of the horse, while couple Of
openings are left for the aars. A
sponge is placed inside the straw hat
and is moistened with vinegar from
time to time to keep the animals
head cool AT first the horses look
very strange IN their new rigout. but
one soon grows accustomed to the
sight.-Journa1 des Chapeliers.

According to Pastor Rommel, who
is attached by his ministrations to
the prisons of Paris, sojourn in one
of them is tartamount to reduction
of 20 years of ones life. The penal
ty of imprisonment costs the life of
many of the prisoners and shortens
the lives cf all. All conditions of
health are neglected Food and ven
tilation are bad. The lookup Sainte
