Arabian Saddles,

Some of the oldest equine habits which horsemen ever imagined are to be found in lands abutting on the home of the Arabian, but where he himself is not to be found; though, in deed, the Arab himself has enough of oddities. The Kurds ride tree GOV cred with plaited straw, quite flat and padded with blankets. This they never remove from their horses, ex- cept occasionally to dry it out. The horse is kept saddled day and night, summer and winter. This seems in- credible, but is literally true. In Turlzestan the horse, under his saddle, is covered with the Biblical number of blankets, seven, which he likewise wears at all times. and which are sup posed to sweat him out and keep him in condition.

LUCK IN THE MINES.
The Joke That Did Not Have the Sequel
 Which Was Intended.

Not many miles from Shasta City, in California, is a gulch of which a strange story is told. It is deep ra- vine, with rocks showing all the way up the sides. Gold in paying quanti- ties has been found along the stream, but it seemed to disappear few feet from the channel. One day, says the Youths Companion, while a gang of men were toiling in the str6sr:. stranger, evidently ignorant of min ing, came along and leaned on his ragged elbows to watch the results of their labor.
 The miner near him took out five dollar nugget, and anxiety overcame the ignorant stranger.
 ''Say," he asked, ''where can I go to diggin' to find it like that?'''
 The hardy miner stopped his work, and giving the wink to all the boys so that the joke should not be lost, pointed up to the barren rocks where no gold had ever been found.
 You see that rough-loolzin' placer"
 ''Yes," said the new hand.
 ''Well, thar it is rich. Jes' you stake out a claim an go to work, an when we finish here we'll come up, too"
 The new hand thanked the miner, and the boys all grinned their appre- citation of the joke. That afternoon solitary figure was seen picking on the hillside, and every time the miners looked up they roared with laughter
 But the next day the new miner struck pocket, and took out several thousands of dollars in gold. Then he came and thanked the miner who had sent him up there, and went down into the valley and bought farm, while the other miners dotted that same rocky hillside for days without finding a pocket. They agreed that it was joke, but not exactly of the kind they had intended.

ouTsTR!PP!Na TIE WIND.
An Illustration of Hcw Yacht Ifay Ac-
 cOmpiish This Feat.

An Illustration of IIcw Yacht Hay Ac-
 compiish This Feat.
 Every yachtsman knows that ship can sail faster than the wind: that is to say, if the wind is blowing ten knots an hour, ship may be making twelve or fifteen knots an hour Now, it is obvious that if the ship is sailing straight before the wind it cannot, at the utmost, travel faster than the wind itself is blowing-as Q matter of fact, it will travel much more slowly. If, on the other hand, the ship is sail ing at an angle with the wind, it seems at first sight that the wind must act with less effect than before, but as a matter of fact the ship not only sails more quickly than before, but more quickly than the wind it. self is blowing. Let us consider the difficulty in the light ofzthe following experiment: Place 2 ball at one side of the billiard table, and with the cue, not held in the ordinary manner, but lengthwise from end to end of the ta- ble, shove the ball across the cloth. The cue here represents the wind, and the ball the ship sailing directly before it; the ball of course travels at the same rate as the cue. Now, suppose a groove in which the ball may roll be cut diagonally across the table from one corner pocket to the other. If the ball be now placed at one end of the groove and the cue held horizontally, parallel with the long sides and moved forward across the width of the table as before, the ball will travel along the groove (and along the cue) diag- onally across the table in the same time as the cue takes to move across the width of the table. This is the case of the ship sailing at an angle with the direction of the wind. The groove is considerably longer than the width of the table, more than double as long, in fact. The ball, therefore, travels much faster than the cue which impels it, since it covers more than double the distance in the same time. It is in precisely the same manner that tacking ship is enabled to sail faster than the wind.

The "Fab.an" Policy.

The policy of wearing out the enemy in war by delays, misleading move ments, feints of attacks, etc, while avoiding open battle, is called the 'Fabian policy" from the following circumstance: Fabius Maximus was a Roman general in the second Punic war. Having been appointed just after the Roman army had suffered severe defeat at Lake Thrasymene, he per ceived that his disheartened troops and bands of raw recruits could not op- pose successfully a trained army flushed with victory and led by their great commander, Hannibal. He therefore avoided pitched battles, moved his camp from highland to highland, and tired out the enemy with marches and This he continued until thwarted in his calculations by the impatlence of the Roman senate.

INDIANS AND COMETS.
A Belief That the Sun Glasses Stars ant
 Bites Them.

Belief That the Sun Glasses Stars and
 Bites Them.
 When the last comet was streaming in the sky I was camping one night in a canyon near the foot of Cooks peak. In the party was an old and-for an Indian-fairly intelligent Ute, named Sam. Sam had been attached to some cavalry troop at Fort Cummings as a scout, but his day of leaving the service being reached he attached himself to me-for a consideration-says a writer in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
 Pointing to the comet I asked Sam what he could say in its defense from the standpoint of Ute. Sam was, un- like most Indians, great talller, and could speak English very well. He was ambitious to perfect himself in the language, and readily seized on every chance for a talk. Indeed, 1 discovered him on one or two occasions all alone and talking vigorously at mark like a savage Demosthenes.
 "Tell about that?" said Sam. point ing toward the comet. ''Sam do it in a heap easy. The sun is the man and he have moon for squaw. The stars biz stars and little stars-are all their children. The sun don't like 'em. If he catches one he eats it. This makes the stars heap 'fraid, and when the sun has his sleep over and comes out the stars run and hide. When the sun comes stars go-creep into holes and hide. But the moon is good. She loves her children-the stars-and when the sun sleeps she comes out in the sky, and the stars are glad. and they come out of the places they hid in, and forget to be 'fraid and play. But when the sun wakes again they run. He is always after them and he catches them sometimes. This one" continued Sam, again pointing to the comet, "the sun catch one time. He got away, though, but the sun hit him and hurt him. That's why he bleed so. Now he's heap scared and so keeps his face always toward the place where the sun is sleeping"

BOB LOST HIS GEESE.
How an Alligator Occupied His Spare
 Time During the Summer.


 Six or eight years ago Bob Vorus started a goose farm on his mill pond. He knew the value of feathers, and thought the people would appreciate the opportunity of obtaining them near home for making pillows and beds. His big mill pond was such a fine place for them to swim and live and raise in. So he got up five or six hundred pairs of geese, and put them on his pond. They were in their glory, and the water was dotted from morning till night as they gracefully glided along over the placid expanse of the pond. Their nests were built in the rushes along it's sides, and their melodious voices reverberated along it's banks from end to end. But they did not in- crease according to Bob's notion-their numbers were diminishing perceptibly. A dead one could be seen occasionally drifting along the edge of the border ing rushes. At first Bob thought it might be minks, otters, skunks, pos sums, or what not that were destroy ing them, but soon found out that it was alligators, for he actually saw one day one of the ugly reptiles catch goose and pull it under the water. Partly-eaten geese"'would sometimes be found. In the course of few months Bob had the same big pond of water, but not single goose.
 Bob hates an alligator, and he and his ten boys have been occupying the dull summer months in killing them They bring into town two or three every week for the children to get frightened at. The other day they brought up the biggest one yet. It measured nine feet and half in length and weighed somewhat under four hundred pounds. It was forty seven years old by the rings on it's tail. It thad already begun to stow away pine knots for the winters supply. Its0ap- petite seemed not to be confined to geese and light wood knots, for an au- topsy discovered in it's capacious cold storage reservoir pair of brogans and a pipe.

A PEACEFUL NIGHT.
How a squeamish Tourist Was Deceived
 a Steamer.


 on Steamer.
 ''Some people" said an old sea cap tain the other day to London Tid-Bits, ''are afraid of sea sickness and hesi- tate to travel by water because of this fear. A friend of mine came on board the steamer Plymouth the other even ing in very happy frame of mind. He had been troubled for long time when of Southampton by feeling of nausea, but now he was positive that he had found a way to avoid it by going to bed as soon as he came on board and remaining there until he ar rived at his destination.
 ''On this occasion he bade me hur ricd good night, climbed into his berth and in few minutes was fast asleep. He slept like top until seven o'clock the next morning, with never qualm of nal de mer tO disturb his slumbers. He arose delighted, satisfied that he had at last found a remedy for the dis order which had caused him so much misery. f+C went down into the din- ing-room and ate a hearty meal, though somewhat surprised that so few passengers were stirring. Going on deck with satisfied look on his face and Q toothpiel. in his mouth, he met me.
 "'Say, old man. he exclaimed, that sleeping racket of mine worked like a charm. Never had a touch of it all night
 ''I smiled.
 "'What are you grinning for?' he asked, in surprise.
 "'Because, answered, the Plymouth has been tied to her dock all night. She has not moved foot. There was something the matter with her ma chinery and we had to transfer the passengers. No one suspected that man would go to bed at six o'clock, and so you were overlooked in the trans fer"
