A Horse Lives in the White House.

A horse has a home in the white house, says Washington correspond. ent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat This is literal fact which visitors never discover and which few Washing. ton people know. The horse which shares the executive mansion with the president isn't thoroughbred. He has neither pedigree nor record. He is just a plain, everyday horse, with a white star in his forehead, a faith ful companion to Edgar R. Beckley And who is Edgar R. Beckley? The man who for twenty-five years has car ried to and from the white house all ot the interesting and valuable mail re. ceived and sent, and who has never been found remiss in his duty. Rain or shine, in all seasons, he makes hour ly trips between the white house and the city post office. He is the white house mail carrier. And the horse that has his home in the white house car, ries Beckley. The part of the mansion set apart for the horse is one corner ot the conservatory. A thin partition is all that separates the roomy stall from the orchids. There is just room enough for the stall and temporary supply of feed and there the horse eats and sleeps, under the same roof with the president of the United States.

like a very big spider as it wabbled along on its arms, trying to reach the surf from the part where it had been left by the receding tide, and the shell hunter thought he would try to capture it. Running up he planted his foot firmly on the end of one of the crea- ture's ''feelers," but with apparent ease the octopus pulled it free and con- tinued it's march toward the sea. The man repeated the experiment several times with no better success, then talk ing advantage of a moment when the creature could offer comparatively lit tie resistance, it being in the act of reaching out to lay hold of rock on the other side of an intervening Assure, he seized one of the tentacles and giv- ing a powerful jerk tore the fish loose from the rock.
 Up to this time the efforts of the oc- topus had all been directed to escap- ing. Now, however, it changed it's tactics. Turning upon it's pursuer, it laid hold of him by the arm, wrapping it's tentacles about his body as we'll and tried to fasten its beaklike jaws in his face.
 Here was predicament. The hun ter hunted with a vengeance. Try as he would the man could not shake off the creature, which clung to him with a clammy, vicelike grip. but by a liberal use of club, he saved himself from being bitten until his cries for as- sistance brought friends to the scene, who killed the fish with knife.
