sensible american Horses.

The day will undoubtedly come when
the Ameri can trotter will be priced and
valued in this country for his astonishing
qualities, among which soundness of lint
and feet, as well as docility. is not one of
the least; and, while on the point of do
cility it is Important to state that the
American horse is probably one of the
most docile animals of the world, and
can attribute this to nothing else than the
babitual kindness and intelligence with
which the American treats this animal.
The breeder has been largely assisted in
this by the negro.
Throughout the whole of the South
where the negro prevails he has been as
sociated with the charge OF breeding
studs, and his affection for the horse has
developed kind OF reciprocity between
himself and this animal which has had a
large influence on the progeny. Any one
who has had to do with American trot-
tiers appreciates this virtue of docility
An American horse will follow you like
a dog; he is not tinaid, and he is always
reasonable. If we could introduce some
of these characteristics into our English
horses it would add more to the pleasure
of horse keeping and horse breeding than
any other element l know.-Duke OF

ers.

patched local freight trains.

and fireman on. the Southern Pacific Nc
Minnville express to desert their posts.
They refused, and took the train out. The
crowd then retired from the terminal
grounds and waited until the California
express was ready to go out at 6:15.- A
few minutes before the train was ready to
start they reformed and marched to the
depot again. A few yards from the en-
pine they were stopped by a squad OF po-
lice and Deputy Marshals. While they
were parleying the time for the departure
of the train arrived. and the engineer
pulled out, passing through the crowd.
As the train passed them they contsnted
themselves with reviling the engineer.
After the train had gone the crowd slowly
dispersed. The Northern Pacific train
left for Tacoma this morning on time.

time. He saw the girl, and when he
went away she departed with him.
There was fruitless pursuit, and, save
in memory, the girl was dead to those
who had known her.
A few days ago, when night had set
tcled upon the village, weary figure
stumbled to the low door Of the adobe
house from which the girl had wan
dered a year ago, and called her moth
er's name.
The mother started to answer, but
the father forbade, and directed the
wanderer to the sheep pen for :helter'
The next day, by the roadside,
mile away beside great stone, passers,
by saw woman's body, bruised and
broken, the face horribly mangled.
There was no need to seek an explana-
ton. No questions were asked.
The girl whose love had led her
astray had paid the penalty of her SIN.
