TWENTY-FIVE HANDS HIGH
"A Well PropOrtfOned Young Horse
That Tips the Beam at 1,7OO
Pounds.

A Well Proportioned Young Horse
That Tips the Beam Mt 100
Pounds.
A freak of nature and world wonder
in the shape of a horse drew many Of
the curious to the livery stable on South
Third street, Seattle, the other day.
The specimen Of the equine kind, is
unquestionably the tallest in the world.
1t is, in fact, a colt, not yet years old,
measuring the enormous height of %
hands, feet inches. In weight this
horse wonder tips the scales at LOO
pounds.
Peter (that is his name) is a gelding,
and was foaled in Minnesota, in June,
1891. He is of Norman stock, and is
described by the Telegraph, as n beau
tiful \dapple gray in color. What is
almost as remarkable as his huge pro-
portion is the fact that his dam and
sire were not above the average size of
that breed of horses. Another colt from
the same dam and sire a year younger
than Peter, but proportionally as large,
if not larger, died some months ago.
Peter, as evidenced by his weight, is a
well proportional animal. His limbs
are clean cut, and the head, body and
neck Of good form. He is, as is the
case with many colts,a little bit sway
backed, but this imperfection, horse
men say, will disappear with age. The
hips are a little higher than the highest
point Of the shoulders, from which the
height and measurement is usually TAX
en-. Should the horse grow to maturity,
it is not unreasonable to expect that he
will attain fully more six inches more
height and develop proportionately
otherwise, carrying a weight possibly
of 5000 pounds. A. gelding seldom at
tains it's full height until years old,
while mares generally mature two
years younger. There is nothing OF
record, several horseman said yester-
day, which equals the height of the
colt in question. Several years ago
however, there was horse on exhibi
ton in Toronto, Can, which weighed
$500 pounds. Peter is physically sound
and healthy. At such an age, growing
with the rapidity that he is, he could
not retain much flesh, though he might
be said to be in good trim for work
His carriage is good and movement fal
less clumsy and awkward than might be
expected of an animal of such proper

FREAK OF AN OLD. vo,LcANu,

tive Activity After Centuries of
Quiet.
whose summit is nearly 1000 feet low
er than that Of Mount Washing
has been the talk Of that, country for q
year past, says the New York Sun
Without note Of warning it developed
into very lively volcano and its erup-
tons have destroyed much property,
including the humble homes Of many
farmers living near its base. this sud-
den outburst was all the more surpris-
ing because no one had ever suspected
that Mount Calbuco was capable of
such behavior. Calbuco was in recent
years regarded as a volcano that CEN
turtles ago had lost every spark of vital
ity. On Feb. "a, 1898, DR.. Hans Stef-
fen, while about twenty miles north OF
Puerto Mont, little south of II deg.
south latitude, observed white clouds.
on the eastern slope Of Calbuco. He
thought nothing Of it until the next
day, when he saw conclusive proof that
those clouds We're a part of a phenOm-
ena showing beyond a doubt that the.
long lost activity Of the volcano had
been regained. From that time until
Oct. 49, the date of the latest advices
received from that isolated part Of the
world, CalbucO showed considerable
and almost incessant activity, with &C.
casiOnal OutburSts Of much fury On.
that day q rain Of ashes fell upon
Osorno, sixty miles away, obsclring the,
sun so that at midday lamps were burn
ing in all the houses Of the town The.
detonatlons that marked the more VIC
lent outbursts were plainly heard. On
the same day the farmers on the south
shore of Lake Llanquihue, a little north
Of the volcano, barely escaped with
their lives and saw all their property
! destroyed. The harvest was ruined
| their land made worthless by the vol
| canic sand that covered it and their
cattle were killed. Even long before
| October the region of which the little
mountain is the center had been rem
dered uninhabitable. For miles around
the forests had been destroyed by show
ers Ct hot ashes. One day there was a
rain of red-hot stones about the size
| Of an egg that did considerable damage.
The rich meadows in the river valleys
were covered with sand and ashes.
Early in the series of erupdons the
snow on one side of Calbuco was melt
ed in few hours by the heated mater
ial scattered over it. The result was a
flood in one of the rivers that destroyed
much property. At no time have any
fire or lava flows been observed, but
severe earthquakes, which frequently
accompany volcanic outbreaks, uave not
been lacking. H., ~ ..

A Costly Coat Of Paint.

he thought was a fine quality Of fire.
proof paint floating in the sound. The
paint was packed in small tin cans
and bore a foreign label, and, as it had
cost him nothing, he thought he would
paint his house with it. The house is
now painted inside and out, and i'll do
ing so the greater portion of the paint
was consumed. The rancher has dis

GOLD MINING IN GEORGIA

Some time ago prominent geOlogiSt
on being approached on the subject,
spoke Of the possibilities Of the produc-
ton Of Georgia gold very highly.
''The gold in Georgia." said he, lis in
a perfectly accessible region, which
makes it twice as valuable as gold that
might be taken out Of California or the
Black Hills. A mine Of enormous rich
ness is Of little value if it is in an inn
penetrable region. The gold country Of
Georgia is in perfect network of rail-.
ways, and the metal can be found very
near the surface, thus making it easily
reached by the miner. The water
courses that pour down the hills give
the best possible power, labor is cheap,
and easily procurable, and it is neces-
sary to transport the ore but short
distance
Il It has been estimated that the gold
belt Of Georgia, is about one hundred.
miles in breadth. The richest sections.
in this belt have been found to be in
the counties of Cherokee, Lumpkin,
White and Dawson.
"a well-known mining specialist in
talking Of late discoveries, recently
said: ut seems 10 be decidedly in the
range of probabilities that tons of the.
precious ore can be taken out of the ex-
listing mines or newly opened veins, i1
the proper machinery is used and the.
shafts are sunk deep enough. 1T is a.
question Of international Importance
where we may replenish the fast-de-
creasing supply Of the precious metal
when the mines now being worked fail.
do not think that governmental aid
would be misplaced in opening up these.
valuable lands, but whether or not any
action is taken by our government, the
Georgia hills cannot long remain unds-
Yeloped. 7
