HORACE AND HIS GARDEN.
Tho Poet Loved the Country, Yet Mopsd
When He Was There.

All his life Horace had wished for a
piece Of land which contained a garden,
a stream and coppice, and in the Sa-
bine valley he found all three. To take
q nap after his brief meal ON the grass
by the stream was to MIN that exquisite
combination Of mental and physical ease
which man is foolish to despise because
it Is an enjoyment within the reach
Of every other animal as we'll as Of him
Sabine farm and his villa at fibur
healthier than the capital, especially in
the autumn. when all fathers and
mothers turn pale with fear for their
children. 1t may be doubted if Rome
was 50 exempt from malarial fever at
that time as it is generally thought to
have been. Once. when he had promised
Mecenas to be away only five days, he
remained at Thur through all the month
Of August, and he begs his dear
friend" il he would have him keep
we'll, to let him stay yet longer, and
even pass the winter out Of Rome by the
seaside Che was probably thinking Of
Tarentum).
Yet was not there a spice Of truth in
the taunt which his servant Davus adj
dressed to the poet, that when he had
been too long in the country he moped
to death? We are almost invited to sus-
pect that there was; the town was, after
all, the life Of his life. One may be sure,
by the bye, that the worthy Davus him
self hated seclusion as much as any Ital-
ian savant does today. Thur he may
have endured; there he could gossip
with the servants Of other villas, but at
the Sabine farm with whom could he
have due chiacchiere except with the
steward-another martyr? By immortal
izing the amusing criticism Of Davus,
Horace shows that he was the first to OBJ
serve that mo man was hero to his
valet. '-CDutempOrary Review.

The First Lesson Of an Arab Boy,

The very first lesson which an Arab
baby learns when he begins to talk is
to keep facts to himself. 1t does not
sound very friendly put in that way,
but it saves deal Of trouble. Foreign
ers do not understand Arabs. They ask
them pointed questions and receive Pc
culiar answers. They construe the an
swers to please themselves, and come
away to tell the world that the Arabs
are nation Of liars. They are not ma
tion Of liars. Perhaps if they should tell
the foreigners to mind their own affairs
and let them and theirs alone the for
eigners would understand them better.

In a recent paper appeared an account
Of a strange accident in which man
was killed by the discharge of gun
while lying asleep ON lounge in his
room. the weapon being discharged By
reflected rays Of the sun falling upon
the cartridge chamber Of the firearm.
Since the publication If the story .
correspondent from York. Pa. writes
eoncerning the accident and refers to q
similar case, in which, through the ef
forts Of q clever Cincinnati lawyer
named g. c. Wallis. the person accused
Of murder and sentenced to be hanged
was set at liberty. the circumstantial
evidence ON which he was convicted be-
ing entirely exploded by witnessed
demonstration as to how the accident
really occurred.
The York correspondent referred to
volume Is of The Criminal Law Maya
zine, page 60i, on which full account
Of the case appears The case was that
Of the state Of Tennessee against Avery.
tried in Henry county, that state, and
is one Of the most remarkable in the
history Of criminal Jurisprudence.
In June, 1887, Charles Ensley. the
cousin Of man of the name Of Avery.
was killed in his room while lying on y
lounge, about 8 o'clock in the after.
noon The weapon which caused the
death was a small rifle, sending SO
caliber ball through Ensley's brain. No
one was in the house at the time but
Ensley. An empty rifle was found lying
ON q rack ON a wall Of the room in which
the killing occurred. and the bullet fit
ted the tube.
Avery was arrested for the crime, as
he was the only living close relative &c
Ensley. and by his death pfofited to the
amount Of about 800, 900. Avery was
tried. pleaded not guilty, but was con-
victed Of murder in the first degree and
sentenced to be hanged. He appealed tc
the supreme court and engaged Mr..
Wallis to defend him. The supreme
court remanded the case back to the cir,
cult court On technical errors. Tive
mistrials were brought about, and then
came the strangest part Of the story.
The brilliant Wallis struck the keynote
to the mystery. In August, 1891, hs
had the rifle loaded and hung on tn,
wall A white sheet with the form Of q
man marked on it was placed in exact
ly the position occupied by Ensley wher
lying asleep, and heavy cut glass pitch
er Of water like the one found in tn,
room was placed on the shelf above.
The temperature was 80 degrees in the
shade, one Of the hottest days Of tn,
year.
The pitcher acted as sunglass, ant
the hot rays of the sun shining through
the water We're refracted directly on tn,
! cartridge chamber of the rifle.
Eight witnesses were in the room
and few minutes after o'clock a pus
and a report occurred, and the bal
struck the outlined form back Of the ca
in the exact location where Ensley wa
shot. and the theory of circumstantia
evidence went to pieces. The incident
being witnessed and sworn to, readil,
explained itself to the jury.

Important Hearing Before Legislative Com
mittee Tomorrow.
The legislative committee on roads
and bridges has assigned hearing
for Wednesday, March 81, at p. M,
on the bill providing for the state con-
troll and improvement of the main high
ways between adjoining towns.
General Roy Stone, United States gov
eminent commissioner on improved
highways; George p. Perkins, president,
and William e. McCIintock, of the Mas
sachusetts highway commission, will
be present to address the committee.
The plan to secure good roads through
out the state is being vigorously pushed
by the state board of trade as an or
ganization, and by Hon. James D. Dew
ell of this city, whose enterprise in be-
half of public Improvements has made
him foremost in all matters relating
to improved highways. Mr.. Dewell has
carefully Investigated the subject of
good roads and feels confident that it is
in the interest of economy to enact laws
providing for the appointment of a
commissioner and making a beginning
on highway improvements that will be
of a permanent character.
The bill before the committe provides
for building few miles of roads in
each county which will be an illustra-
ton of what can be done in street i'm
provements. 1t is expected that there
will be a large delegation before the
committee inasmuch as similar laws
have proved economical and satisfacto-
ry in other states it is believed that this
general assembly will take steps to keep
up with the procession.

We sailed March II, and had strong

escaped running into an abandoned

just awash and the seas were washing

to be standing, but her bowsprit was
apparently broken off. Portions of sails
