Silver Ruins q Horse.

A silver quarter dollar rarely does

street-car horse in Reading, Pa, which
has been utterly ruined by this little
piece of money. Fox the past four
years there has been a horse in the
Bird street stables of the city passen-
ger railway company that became lame
for few days every month, and on each
occasion hard lump formed en- the
right shoulder, but never twice at the
same place. The attention of Super
intendent Rigg was called to the
horse, and he had the shoulder lanced.
The superintendent stood aghast when
q quarter dollar was taken from the

leads Mr.. Rigg to believe that the
horse was injured some years ago and
that the quarter was placed in the
wound to keep it open for the removal

He Was Born to Fight, GlOrles in Fighting,
and VIII and Can right
"The Indian is the most vicious
fighter on EARTH" said Major Barbour,
late press agent of the worlds fair,
but former plainsman. "You read
in the accounts of the South African
war where a hundred or two English
men go out and whip 5000 or 1O,O

compare with the Indians as warriors
No frontier general would think Of
leading his troops against a body of
Indians where the odds were greatly
against him. Why? Because the In
dian is naturally a fighter and a
marksman, and because he has been
quick to learn what the white armies
have taught him in warfare.
"Take that fight in which Sitting
Bull was killed. That was q skirmish,

There were just sixteen men on each
side. Those Indian scouts rode

Their ambition is to win glory in

how, and you can bet they do fight
when they get at it"

Arizona's wild Camels.

The wild camels in Arizona are in
creasing in number. It is regretted
that they are not captured and put to
ervicc. Ever since they were pur-
chased by the government and turned
loose they have thrived until there are
now a good many of them, probably
300 or 400. No attempt has ever been
made to tame them, but if this was
done they would be of much greater
value than the ponies or burros, ex-
cept as mountain climbers. They
could carry greater loads and could
endure the arid plains better than
any of the beasts of burden now in
use. A few of them have been caught
and sold to menageries and geological
gardens, but not enough to make any
appreciable difference In the size of
the drove. They are seldom seen,
keeping away from haunts of man.

A Peculiar VIII.

One of the most peculiar wills ever
recorded was that of Madam Mems,
who died in Antwerp, in which she
left all her estate to her relatives up
to the Twelfth degree of kinship The
testator was repol ted to have been
worth one hundred millions of dollars.
The ambitious relatives fastened to
file their claims. AS a result the court
is obliged to pass upon the alleged
rights of 4,554 heirs. The family
tree of one heir alone covers a space
sixteen meters square. The poor peo-
pie are doomed to disappointment, as
the estate turned out to be worth only
about three millions. So many law
yers have been engaged that their fees
alone will swallow up this amount.

SO small that its tones were not suf-

village. A second bell was badly
wanted, but the village was poor, and
where was the money to come from?
Everyone offered to give what he
could, but the united offerings did
not amount to nearly enough for the
purpose. One Sunday when the school
master. Gottfried Hayn, was going
to church, he noticed growing out
of the church-yard wall fourishing
green stalk of corn, the seed of
which must have been dropped by a
passing bird. The idea suddenly
struck him that perhaps this one stalk
of corn could be made the means of
procuring the second bell they wanted
so much. He waited till the corn was
ripe, and then he plucked the six ears
on it and sowed them in his own
garden. The next year he gathered
the little crop thus produced and
sowed it again, till at last he had not
enough room in his garden for the
crop and so he divided it among a
certain number of farmers, who went
ON sowing the ears until, in the
eighth year the crop was solarge that
when it was put together and sold
they found that they had enough
money to buy beautiful bell, with
