Animals and the Locomotive.

Science Siftings gives the observations
of an engineer ON the different manner in
which animals are affected by steam
locomotive. Dogs will run and bark at
the wheels, lcaping about, but seldom get
hurt. Horses will race ahead of the en-
CINE on the line and sometimes will run
half mile before they can be driven off.
Oxen can hardly he persuaded to get out
of tho way, while a calf will sometimes
stand on the line and stare at the locomo-
tive in blank establishment until taken by
the cars and dragged away. Sheep are
the most stupid. If one attempts to cross
in. front of moving engine, the engineer
may make up his mind for an accident,
for the balance Of the drove insist on get
ting over or dying. Hogs pay very little
attention to an engine. They seem to
regard it as something quite out of their
line and not in any way concerning them.

A MEhTY SUBJECT.
Retail Butchers Discuss Matters
of Interest to the Trade.


The Retail Butchers association met
Tuesday night and resolutions were
adopted bearing on the disruption in the
wholesale dealers combine.
The resolutions state that previous TO
the formation of the Wholesale Meat
Dealers association the meat business
was in a sadly demoralized condition.
Credit was indiscrminately given to
those who could show that they had a
place of business. Loose business
methods like this led men into the bus
mess that had neither money nor knowl-
edge, aid retail prices far below those
that should have been charged were
made by these irresponsible parties.
The rules under which the two aSsocia-
tons have worked during the past
eighteen months have practically solved
the question. however. Both retailers
aud wholesalers have been saved thou
sands OF dollars. Incompetent dealers
are forced out of the business, as is
shown by the record of the first year,
during which time fifty-five dealers
were placed on the G. 0. ID. list perma.
nently for various reasons.
The necessity Of maintaining the
credit system is set forth. aud also OF
keeping alive the association of the
wholesale dealers. \ meeting Of the
latter was held last night, at which it
was decided to conduct business on the
old lines.
