A single blow may lie enough to spoil
q racer. Daniel Lambert, founder OF
the Lambert branch of the Morgan fam
lily. was thought as 3~-year-old to be
the fastest trotting stallion Of his day.
He was u very handsome. stylish, intel
ligent horse. and also extremely sensi.
tive.
His driver, Dan Mace, though one of
the best reinsmen in America, once made
the mistake, through iii temper or bad
Judgment, of giving Daniel Lambert a
severe cut with the whip, and that sin
gle blow put an end to his usefulness ais d

able in harness and remained 90 for the
rest or his life.

SENATOR AND MRS. PETER.

IaAey Are Always Together. and the Good
Lady Is Her Husband's Counsellor.
The relations between Senator PETER
and his wife are quite touching. They
: always together, and wherever Mr..
PETER is Mrs. PETER can usually be
found neal by. They walk together in
Tie morning from their boarding house
10 the capitol, and when he has nothing
else to do they work in his committee
room, she acting as his private secretary.
When he has engagements elsewhere,
she remains there, answering his letters
and sending out his documents. When
the senate Is called TO order, she goes
into the gallery and remains until adj
iournment, when she walks home with
him. When lunchtime comes, they &C
down to the restaurant together and eat
baked apples and cream.
When he has to visit the pension Of
fce or the postofice department or other
Offices in the city, she is always with
him and usually waits outside of the
door until he comes. He is tall and un-
calmly, with high cheek bones, and dark
goggles, and long whiskers, and an ulster
on which the nap in places has been
wor off. She is a bright looking little
woman, nimble and observing, but
plainly dressed in a bonnet and gar
ments which she evidently made herself.
Mrs. PETER Is q oma OF considerable
Intellectual force. She understands po-
1itical affairs quite as thoroughly as heI
husband and is a safe counselor. - Wash.

THE DEAL CLOSED.
Water Works Bonds Sod and Contractors
Notified to Oomr.enos Work at Once.


The city council, at special session lest
evening, ordered notice to be sent the
Chase National bank Of New York that
their proposition TO retain accrued inter-
est on water works bonds would be al
lowed only az to interest ACQUIRED pre-
vions to February . The same was
wired in by Auditor Sheridan and to-day
he received . reply stating that Harris
q Co, for whom the bank was doing the
business, would pay interest ACQUIRED
since March /. This proposition being
based on the point that the bonds had
not been delivered TO them until Febru-
AIRY 90, tue date thereof, however, being
January !. the council did not feel that
they could insist on the return OF the
first two months interest. and to-day
autographed the Chase National bank
that the clty would accept Their terms Of
returning interest accrued since March
only, and would give thom the bonds.
This virtually closed the deal, making
the bonds sell FOR 80 cents on the dollar,
kilograms have been sent to Fairbanks,
Morse & Co, contractors for putting In
the w~aterworks, that the bonds have
been disposed OF and that they may be-
gin work at once.

TO WHOM nc May Concern.

TO WhOHm nc May Concern.
There have been several articles pub
lished in the papers of Lake and adjoin-s
ing counties concerning the sale of the
Leighton farm near Wentworth, and in
some of these articles injustice has been
done to the undersigned, two OF the SONS
OF Mrs. r. w. Leighton, and we wish TO
state the facts in the case.
The said farm was formerly the prop
erty OF our father, r. w. Leighton. It
was decided by him and his wife to Il.
ID. Miller in trust, TO be decided by him
to any one they, or the survivor, might
direct; therefore, while Mr.. Miller hell
the legal title it was subject to the
wishes of r. w. Leighton and his wife.
About ten years ago father became
too old to carry on the farm and as all
the older boys had left home, we took
charge OF the farm and have carried ii
on ever since. We have devoted almost
our entire time to the improvement OF
the farm and have increased it's value
very greatly. This spring we wished to
purchase a farm and talked the matter
over with our mother-our father having
died about a year ago-and agree to buy
the place, and she agreed that we
should have it at the same price at
which 1T was afterwards sold to Mr..
Buxton. We asked Miller for a deed TO
the land according to the agree
ment, but he refused to deed
it, although our mother told him re-
peatedly that the land was sold / o us.
We did not consent to the sale Of the
land to Mr.. Buxton but when the land
was sold and transferred to him, al
though feeling that We had been
wronged in the matter, we consented to
remove from the land as soon as possible
and did remove when we agreed TO do
SO. The statement in one paper that
this land was decided to Miller 20 avoid
the results OF a law suit in which Mrs.
Leighton wa interested, is not true, as
the land belonged to r. w. Leighton and
not to bis wife, while she alone, was the
party interested in the lawsuit referred
TO. We do not wish to continue this
newspaper controversy over the matter,
but would ask that If any further state
ments are published on the subject, the
writer will sign his name thereto. as we
do to this. Madison, S. D., April 2, 1894.

EARNED HIS LIBERTY.
Tactics of Snake Whose Rest Had Bee
 Disturbed.


 Tactics of 8 Snake Whose Rest Had Been
 Disturbed.
 The first law of animated nature is self-preservation. The means employed to attain this end are varied and inter- esting. Some animals depend upon strength, some upon swiftness, some upon coats of mail, others upon poison glands; but with many the main reli- ance seems to be hypocrisy or simula- tion. A correspondent of the Popular Science News gives an interesting ac- count of the performance of a snake when it found itself suddenly in danger.
 '.'While searching for snails turned over an old log and disturbed a snake, called by our negroes a 'spreadin' ar row. The tactics pursued by this snake were curious.
 First he erected his head and neck, and flattened them out till they seemed no thicker than cardboard, thus increasing his apparent size, and he took care not to be seen edgewise. The shape of his head changed. It took pronounced triangular form omous snakes. Then his tail, with the aid of dry leaf, was proclaiming that it was the tail of rattlesnake.
 ''All this, coupled with an ominous hiss, was calculated to strike terror to the heart of his disturber, as for mo- ment it did. l rega1ned my courage, however, and began to poke the ser pent gently with stick, when finding 'bluster' of no avail, he sought safety in flight.
 Repeated headings off showed him how futile were his efforts in that line, and he altered his tactics again. He turned on his back and remained mo- tionless. I threw him up six feet from the ground, and so quickly did he turn over that he seemed to strike on his back.
 "Once on his back, nothing could in duce him to move. Tapping, prodding, twisting his tail-all were in vain. Then 1 suspended him from the limb of a tree, retreated little and watched. At the end of two minutes the reptile moved. Slowly he turned on his spinal column as on an ax.s, surveyed the premises and, seeing nothing danger ous, dropped to the ground and was making off.
 ''At my approach he died again. After sundry other proddings, which failed to move him, rewarded him for his cleverness by giving him the liber- ty which he certainly had earned"
