LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

OMAHA, April l2.-CATTLE-Receipts l,5Oo;

not particularly urgent from any quarter.

bulk of the business on the basis of a good 10
cents advance. Trade was lively from start

Canadian Sieags Doxa.

Six or eight dogs are used on each
sledge. They are fed only once in
twenty-four hours. and that is In tho
morning before the start is made and
after the dogs are in harness. At that
time about four pounds of frozen fsh
are given to them. Everything must
be in readiness for the start, and the
men must look to it that they are At
hand to jump on the sledges, for at the
very instant that the last morsel of fish
disappears the dogs are of at break
neck speed. Strange as it may seem
the drivers do not dare TO feed the aogs
unless they are in harness Otherwise
they would scatter. and nothing more
would be seen of them. They are
driven with one long rein attached to
the leader. A whip with very short
handle and a very long lash is used to
urge them on, though in most cases
they need no urging. for they seem to
feel that the faster they go the quicker
they will come to the post. where food
and warmth and a lazy life await them.
They travel often as far as ninety miles

PERSONAL AND LITERARY.

President Diaz of Mexico looks
more like a country storekeeper than
he does like the president of repub
lie. He is low Of stature, small head,
retreating forehead, short crisp hair,
high cheek bones, and sallow face. His
manner, however, is fascination itself.
Secretary Lamont is still the most
exclusive member of the cabinet, and
he is even more exclusive than he was
at first. 1t is almost impossible to get
a chance to see him at his Office, and
many men have spent several days in
a vain attempt to get even glimpse
of him. And, besides, he is in the city
less than any other member of the
cabinet.
Secretary Lamar was once taken
to task by lady at Bar Harbor who
thought he did not recognize her.
"Ah, judge" she said, Il am afraid
you don't remember me; l met you
here tive years ago" Remember you,
MADAME" was his quick reply, with
one of his courtly bows; why, I've
been trying ever since to forget you"
And she laughingly exclaimed: 20. GO
away, you dear. delightful old south
ern humbug!'
1t is singular fact that while a
great many distinguished and promi-
nent persons write fine. clear hands,
most literary people have very indiffer-
emit penmanship. Julien Gordon, who
has written 80 many graceful society
novels, has an abominable chirography,
inelegant, hard to decipher and with
no particular aim or idea, judging from
the formation of the letters. Ella
Wheeler Wilcox's writing is like that
of an ignorant child, the letters badly
formed, staggering and ugly.
in connection with Count Tolstoi's
last book remarkable copyright dis
pute has been occupying the attention
of lawyers, publishers and authors in
England. AS is well known, the Rus
sian philanthropist not only declines
to receive any financial return for his
works, but even to avail himself of any
copyright protection for them. The
royalties which should be his, to give
them to the needy if he wish, swell in
stead the pockets of publishers, who.
in consequence, battle for monopoly
privilege. They obtain for themselves
the copyright refused by Tolstoi. and
prosecute each other for every in
frinsement thereof. Meanwhile the
Russian poor are poorer through the
shortsightedness of their would-be
benefactor.
Louisa NJ. Alcott began her literary
career by writing sensational stories of
love and adventure for a cheap Boston
paper. She was paid five dollars apiece
for these illusions, but, as she said in
her journal, sewing is safer depend
ence." and for many years her literary
work brought her snch meager returns
she could not afford to trust it n
support. Hospital sketches first brought
her before the public prominently. and
her success dated from these fugitive
papers, which she did not think much
of herself. Before these were written
she was strong, healthy young wom-
an, and after the hospital experience,
the dangerous illness and privaticns
which she suffered she was a constant
invalid. Her fame was purchased At
bitterly high price.

CHARACTER AND PHYSIQUE
Rad Hair Was Regarded with Disfavor BY
the Romans.

tho Romans.
Judging character by physical indi-
cations was practiced by the ancients
as well as more occult arts of divina-
ton, the quality and color of hair be-
ing especially . subject Of theory.
Straight, lank hair was regarded as in
dicative Of pusillanimity andncoward-
ice. Napoleon was only the exception
that proved the rule, for his hair was
as straight as an Indians. Frizzly hair
was supposed to accompany eoarseness
of nature and clumsiness Of manner.
The compromise between these two
types was considered most desirable,
that is, straight hair, ending in softly
turned rings. Achilles and Ajax Telar
mon had this sort of hair and such
also were the locks of Timon, the
misanthropic Athenian. In color au-
burn or light brown hair was consid-
cred the most beautiful, as well as in
dicative Of intelligence, amiability, in
dustry and extreme susceptibility to
the charms of the opposite sex. Black
hair was regarded with disfavor by the
Romans, but red was an object of ex-
IRENE aversion, prejudice carried TO
such an extreme that even donkeys
suffered from it, according to the prov
erb: "As wicked as a red ass" Among
the Copts a red donkey was every year
sacrificed by hurting il from high

A PLEASANT RECEPTION

The reception given to.the gradual
ing class at the Normal school by the
faculty on Saturday evening was in
the highest degree pleasant and sue
cessful, Notwithstanding the disa-
greeable weather, The library, halls
and assembly room were beautifully
decorated, mainly with autumn
foliage. The orchestra discOursed
sweet music in the middle hall. The
members of the graduating class were
nearly all present. A number of the
parents of the model school pupils
were out, as well as some other citi-
Zens. President Soaring and the three
new members of the faculty received
in the library from eight to nine
o'clock. From nine to ten the guests
INDUCED in social discourse in the
well lighted rooms, or explored the
new or newly decorated parts of the
building, including the beautiful kim
dergarten. At ten o'clock all repaired
to the assembly hall where short
literary, artistic and musical enter
tainment was neatly presented and
well received. The six classic group
ings by the Greek class were especial
ly beautiful and were warmly applaud
ed. The reception was regarded as
the ffkest ever given in the school
and no doubt the others of the series
to follow will be of corresponding in
terest. These class receptions are a
comparatively new feature of the
school but have proved themselves
every way worthy of continuance.
