ra paso Secures the Release of the
 r..fa~tnnate Men From Their Imper-
 ialea Position by chsrtering Train
 rhe Army Almost Starved For Want
 af Food-The Men Happy.
 SIERRA BLANCA, Tex, March S0.- Frey's regiment is on the move. A special train consisting of five coaches and two baggage cars left here yester- day morning for San Antonio over the Southern Pacific road.
 There is no description that could de- fine the joy which the unfortunate men Exhibited when they received the glad news that they were to leave the barren region they had occupied for several days.
 The fact is the men were about at starvation' door, for up to Wednesday morning the entire TOO had had only one COW and 200 pounds of flour since Sunday night
 The news that they were to move was not the only thing that made their hearts glad. They were also notified that S200 worth of provisions had been sent them from Fl Paso. It is not diff fcult to understand how such news affected them. They almost tore their hair in joy. Some of the weaker ones Tainted away when they knew the long fast was drawing to a close. The strain was over, the reaction set in and some of the more unfortunate ones passed into unconsciousness.
 The special train and provisions were provided for by the good citizens of El paso who have been at work faithfully to get the regiment out of their i'm reriled predicament. They offered the Southern Pacific railroad $100 to trans port the men to San Antonio, which was Accepted. The two baggage cars were filled with provisions.
 The hungry men ate like famished wolves. They were so packed into the i've coaches that they were unable to lest. Standing room had to be resorted E.
 It is said that the officials of the road would not have accepted the offer of B100 to take the men to San Antonio, but that they were getting uneasy sbout the threats that Governor Hogg had made. The last order from the governor was that the road remove the nen at once. However, the officials eny that the governor had anything Q do with the moving of the army.
 The train will reach San Antonio his afternoon and the regiment liter resting will make iFs way north join Goxey either by Dallas or Fort Worth.

A HORSE THAT KNOWS WHAT is SAID
Mazeppa steed That w ould Have Helped
Mazeppa to Life, Not Death.

1t cannot be said of the horse, as Heine
said of the monkey, that it does not talk for
fear of being put to work. Probably the
ultimate degree to which the training of
animals may be carried is reached in the
case of the talking horse that literally made
its bow to the public recently at the Crystal
Palace. Mazeppa is an Arab, educated, so
to say, in America, and it's extraordinary
capacity for learning was manifested before
an astonished and enthusiastic audience.
In the strict meaning of the word, the
horse does not talk, but is capable of answer
ing questions addressed to it. 1t even IN
derstands French or German when it hears
it spoken, though it, does not speak these
Languages, in which it is not less accomplish
ed than some human beings. The animal
not only appears to think, but is capable of
expressing itself intelligibly by signs. 1t
has special talent for arithmetic.
The audience was invited promiscously to
call out a number of figures. which were ar
ranged in rows on blackboard, and MAJ
eppa, after looking over them, gave the sum
of the addition by paving the ground in
every case the exact number of times neces
sary to indicate the result. AS mere trick
this would be surprising enough, but, con-
sidering the figures were taken at random
from among the audience, ladies and gentle
men, and particular, eager little boys, con-
tributing, collision seemed out of the ques-
tion, and:Mazeppa's good faith was establish
ed by the still more remarkable achievement
that followed.
THE horse was directed to count the num-
Der of persons in given rows of the audi
ence, and, having done so more than once,
proceeded to indicate the number of women
and the number of men in any particular
row. Having passed this examination MAJ
eppa stood forth to answer any question to
which it was possible to give reply di-
rectly, by means of a shake of the head,
signifying either Eyes /" or mo-, or in
figures. Thus, the day of the week and the
month of the year, or the date of birthday,
revealed to the trainer, Prof. H. S Mcclure,
was promptly found by the horse; any at
tempt to deceive it meeting always with
decidedly emphatic negative.
This astounding entertainment concluded
with an imitation by Mazeppa of young man
paying his addresses to a young lady. The
horse's affection of tenderness adds very
humorous touch to an excellent piece of
pantomime. The sagacious Mazeppa is sim
Div a wonder. From the London Daily
News.

There was good deal going on in this
vicinity yesterday as result of the
great fire at Norway. Two great safe
doors arrived at machinist Bancock's,
from the First National bank of Nor
way. Their locks had suffered from the
effects of the heat and needed to be
repaired.
In Deering yesterday Mrs. J.. H. Clark
was preparing barrel of clothing and
other things for sufferers. She received
aid from her neighbors. She has rela-
tives in Norway, among them Mr.. H. d.
Smith, cashier of the First National
Bank. He was prosperous man be-
fore the fire. He had a comfortably fur
nished home. He has five children, one
of them married. who lived near at
hand. The fire annihilated both homes.
Mr.. Smiths goods were packed up pre-
paratory to moving the next day to the
old home farm for the summer in OK
ford, a few miles distant. Nothing was
saved but the clothes hat the family
wore. Mrs. Clark wrote to Mrs. Smith to
ask if she could help. The reply was
that the most pressing need was for
clothing for herself and family. Mrs.
Clark will shortly send barreIful of
clothing, also dishes ETC.. as nothing of
household nature was saved. There
was such tremndous fire and heat all
about that as fast as articles were re-
moved from the house they were burned
outside.
Mrs. Shurtleff of South Paris, wife of
one of the directors of Mr.. Smiths bank,
was in the city yesterday. She said that
a temporary board structure has been
reared over the bank vault. that was
preserved intact, and man guards it
with rife night and day. just across
the street is the temporary bank Office,
in building that did not burn. OF
course it is not protected with barred
windows, etc., as bank buildings are,
and the young lady bookkeeper has
body guard of one man all the time.
When Cashier Smith goes from the
office across the street to the walt to
carry money he is, accompanied by a
man with gun. Even South Paris
now has patrolmen night and day, such
has been the influx of roughs, who,
veritable human vultures that they are,
are waiting and watching about Norway
for chance to feed upon disaster.

The real trouble with the dam was the
fact that it's foundation was not the led
rock, but the mixture of gravel and
boulders on top of the rock. Though
piles were driven, this was SO deep that
the bed rock was not reached. The wat
over the edge of the apron acted upon the
sand and gravel, and that an eddy al
ways forms under such circumstances,
wore away the gravel more and more,
and this undermined the dam. The COM
pany have felt suspicious as to the
strength OF the dam since last fall, and
were not much surprised when it gave
way. Farther down the river much
damage was done, it is said, that may
result in complications.
just above Brunswick is Marshal's
lumber yard, where enormous quantities
of poplar logs are handled. The food,
it is reported, broke a boom and half a
million feet went down river.
