HOW TO BUY A HORSE.
Points Upon Which All Women

Points Upon Which All Women
Should Be Posted.
A woman nowadays not only knows
how to ride and to drive but is also able
to select her own thoroughbred.
She realizes she must choose an animal
with rather a small head, and broad be-
tween the eyes, and look well to it that
the beast does not show too much of the
white of the eye, as that indicates vi
cious temper and holds out prospects of
runaways.
A HACKNEY THE BEST.
The hackney is the fashionable horse at
present. 1t was scarcely known in this
country twelve years ago, but now is in
great demand. Hackney means cob, a
pony, a carriage or saddle horse, racers
and hunters being excepted.
A cob is thickset animal, about four,
teen hands high; he is surefooted and
partly on this account is oftentimes a
great favorite with ladies.
If your animal, from the ground to the

That was right. The man who would not
aItyrize himself under such circumStan-
ces, has no right to call himself public
servant
But, doctor, it does seem to me as
though you must have been MISC noted.
If you were not, why did you fly to the
trio of M. DIS for aid?
In other words, uhy didn't you quit
when you had enough?

THE scR1PToRIUM IN A MoNAsTERx

We do not happen to possess any rec
ords of the Scriptorium of st. Albans,
but, as was the case in all medieval
Imonasteries, it held very conspicuous
position. TN the absence of the print

mand for skilled writer's and copyists
throughout the country was enormous
In the Scriptorium all the business now
transacted by half a dozen agents and
their clerks was carried on. The land
of the country in those days was subdi-
vided to an extent that it is now almost
impossible for US to realize, and the ten
lure under which the small patches Of
arabic or meadow land were held was
sometimes very complex and intricate.
The small patches were perpetually
changing hands, being bought or sold,
settled upon trustees, or let out for a
term of years, and every transaction
would be registered in the books of the
monastery interested.
For such an abbey las ST. Albans1 q

constantly employed in the business

Obviously it became n great writing

or unconSciouSly, wrote according to
there have been, and there are, experts
who could tell whether this or that doc
Iument was or was not written in this or
that monastic Scriptorium. Paper was
very little used, and the vellum and
parchment required constituted a heavy
item of expense. Add to this the pro-
duction of schoolbooks and all materi-
ais used for carrying on the education
work. the constant replacement of
church service books, the great demand
for music. and we get a rather serious
list of the charges upon the stationery

nearly all the larger cities in the eastern.

While the eastern woolcn mills cannot
meet their orders for dress goods many Of
the woolen mills are running on part
time and the large stocks OF old wool
with the California and Texas clip avail
able within 60 days, depress the prices.
The demand from the northwestern store

ware is kept up by the continued spring

including, from the ports of both of the
coasts Of the United States and Canada

total number of business failures for the
past week was l96, against 23l last week.

Strong Probabilities Of a Strike on The
Union PlCie.
THE MEN GIVE UP TALKING
Now the Receivers Must Settle tho
Trouble as Eest They Can
NO More Cab
Goes.

OMAHA. March 22.-Now II Is strike; the
Union Pacific employees are uneasy and
resIive and there Is an ugly look in the
sky. They arc not sayin; many words.
but the few they use count for q good
deal. Concessions they came for and so
far they have bad none. All the conced-
ing has been done by the men. Not
point has been given By the company. and
wherever there was difference OF opin-
ion IT still exists unless the men nave re-
ceded from their position.
Tho men have almost reached the con-
clusion that conference is useless
waste Of time. In,s evening it was qui-
eily announced that unless some very sub
stantial concessions wore made from tho
Dundy schedule the receivers OF the Union
Pacific would have a strike oh their
hands. Tho men have determined to
drop conference and will not allow the re-
ceiyers TO settle for themselves the
point.
There was n secret meeting OF the men
last night ut which Eugene V. D.bs and
others spoke IN favor OF disseminating
what they called farce. Debs likcned
tho situation TO tie Northern Pacific af-
fair. which ended By forcing tho men TO
yield to jus. what the company's receivers
wanted.
Debs suggested that the delegates en-
power the various chairmen to get to-
gcthcr in committee Of action and draft
an agreement which would he satisfactory
10 them and which would give them what
would bo their due. this 10 be submitted
TO Mr.. Clark in the event that Judge Cald-
well was unable 20 give what was asked.
He was loudly applauded. In the next
breath he suggested that the only other
course open to the men was that OF strik-
ing in the event o; this demand not being
acccdcd TO. Mr.. Debs' idea was accepted
by the body. Another meeting will be
held tomorrow night. The platform will

finds he canuo; accede to the mems de-

Vorhees moved that when the house I'D.

Livingston Of Georgia called attention to
the fact that the gentleman from Maine

clared there was nothing in the rules re-
quiring member to appear before the

a call of the honse and Waugh moved an
adjournment. The motion to adjourn was
lost. Brown, chairman OF the committee
on elections, then gave up the contest and
