Those familiar with the "Fables of
Esop" will remember the reputation
which Reynard bears among the rest of
the animals, 1t is questionable whether
any wild creature can compete with the
fox in craftiness To look at him gen.
orally, even in his ordinary habits, he
exhibits an amount of cleverness which
astonishes one. Should fox catch a
hedgehog, whose spines effectually pro-
tect him from most of his enemies, he
does not waste time, as a fox terrier
will do, in endeavoring to worry his
prey. He merely rolls him to the near
est water, knowing that drop or two
will cause the animal to relax his hold.
1t is rare thing to catch one in
trap laid at the door of his "earth"
even. If he is inside when the trap is
set, he waits until some other animal
springs it and then energies to eat the
victim and the bait. Only when driven
by the terrible pangs of hunger will he
tempt fate in his own person. Most an
imals gorge themselves when they are
fortunate enough to come across super
abundance of food. Not SO with Reynard.
Should he find poultry yard well
stocked and ill protected he fills his
larders first Nor does he, as the prov
erb says, put all his eggs in one bas-
ket." He puts one fowl in hedge,
hides another in bush, places third
in hole in q tree, rapidly digs cavity
for fourth and covers it up again, re-
membering in each case where his stores
are concealed, And when his supplies
are sufficient in his own estimation he
takes fine fat chicken or duck to his
"earth" for present enjoyment.

Queer Name For Diseased Cow.

The true answer to the conundrum
"When is cow not u cow" has been
discovered and is as follows, "When it Is
q croker" 1t seems that this term is ap-
piled in the Central meat market to the
carcass of an animal that has "been killed
to save its life" In other words, n croker
is "A beast which has been afflicted with
some of the many diseases to which cattle
are liable and whose flesh for that reason
fetches much smaller plice than does
good, wholesome beef.
Mr.. Green, farmer of Hanworth, id
Norfolk, thought that the health of the
London public would be materially inn
proved by partaking of one of his "crok-
ers," and he sent it to an accommodating
Smithfield salesman. On his premises it
was seized as being totally unfit for hu-
man food, and the too enterprising farmer
was fined, as he richly deserved to be, in
the sum Of $50 and IS costs. If there
were no statesmen willing to accept such
garbage, meat eaters would be in far less
danger than they are of consuming "cut
from croker" under the belief that II
was genuine roast beef.-London Tels-

Looking Backward.

The superstition of the i'll luck of
looking backward or returning is a
very ancient one, originating doubtless
from Lots wife, who Cooked back
from behind him" when he was led by
an angel outside the doomed city of the
plain. In Roberts Oriental Illustra-
tions" it is stated to be considered ex-
ceedingly unfortunate in Hindoostan for
men or women to look back when they
leave their house. Accordingly, if a
man goes out and leaves something be-
hind him which his wife knows he will
want, she does not call him to turn or
look back, but takes or sends it after
him, and if some great emergency obliges
him to look back he will not then pro-
coed on the business he was about to
transact. "-Exchange.

IN FAVOR OF HORSE MEAT.
Veterinarians Say They Know of No 81
lection to Its Use.

veterinarians Say Ihey Know OF NO I'D
lection to Its Use.
"Shall we eat horse?" is question
which Philadelphia newspaper has
been putting to leading veterinarians.
While none of them answered squarely
in the affirmative, there was general
concurrence in the opinion that horse
meat makes rather good eating at
pinch. Francis Bridge said, 1.-The flesh
is as nutritious and i'll flavor as good as
that of the bovine, and l see no good
reason to interdict its use as human
food" W. l.. Zuill declared that he
would eat it in preference to pork. 1t
is more juicy and of better flavor than
OK flesh" he said S. j. J. Hargar,
who had once eaten mule tenderloin,
found it inferior in fiber and taste to
beef
E. NJ. Michiner thought that horse
flesh was not injurious to human
health, " and he pointed out that nei-
ther tuberculosis, actinomycosis or tri-
china was found in the horse, the ex-
coption being noted that rare cases of
tuberculosis had been recorded John
W. Gadsden believed that the flesh of
young horses properly cooked was good
for man, and he thought that if horses
got much cheaper there would be a
great temptation to try it. D." Samuel G.
Weber said: 1.-THE flesh of the horse
seems to remain tender with age and
has more pungent SAVIOR than that of
other animals. From these superior
qualities it may readily be seen why it
should be more digestible than other
meat, which often comes from animals
which are prematurely as well as ex-
cessively fattened. In Europe, where
raw meat is prescribed by physicians, it
is generally that of the horse. They
claim it is more healthy for those UNI
dergoing severe muscular exercise and
more nutritious for the weak and ane-
mic"
Alexander Glass sounded warning
in the following experience: 'In two
instances, when ate horsefesh, found
the meat very tender and rather pleas
ant to the taste. At the time could
not shake off the thought. What if this
horse had incipient glanders?' for some
of that meat was very rare" Several
years ago DIR. Huidekoper of Philadel-
phia invited some members of the Phil
adelphia club and of the City troop to q
dinner, at the conclusion Of which he
announced to his guests, who were much
pleased with the repast, that they had
dined off the carcass of his old white
| horse Fedora.

large amount of business to do and
considerable ground ITO cover. AS a
result Of their inspection of the Matte
NO. 9, a new working shaft will be
put down on the property, work to
be commenced during the next ten
days. 1t was found that the present
incline is not what the management
desires and the new shaft will be so
located that the property may be work
60 to the greatest possible advantage.
Of course the first work to be done
is the extending of the railroad around
to the mouth of the workings on the
Matte, and the surveyors should take
the field at once.
The Rover is reported to be looking
very well. 1t has been demonstrated
that there are sixty feet of solid ore
in one of the claims of the group, the
tunnel there having passed through
that width of vein and into the foot
wall. Good progress is being made
with the new tunnel which is now in
$50 feet. Drifting is in progress from
the Silver Cloud tunnel, and the show
ing of ore there is very gratifying.

sonally superintendent a cleanup and
shipped the product. The returns were

CAYANAUGH DISCHARGED.
CASE DISMISSED ON THE GROUND
of INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.
He Will Now Be Tried For Using
Profane and Obscene Language
Minor Cases Disposed of in the
Police Court.

The details Of the brawl at the Free
Coinage saloon last Sunday night, in
which John Cavanaugh, colored, tried to
execute some of his brunette companions
with a carving knife and later TO smash
John Bentrod's head with a beer bottle,
were aired in the police court yesterday.
The complaint against Cavanaugh was
sworn out by Bentrod. The testimony
only brought out the details of Cavan-
augh's capers in the saloon. This was
the second act of his performance and he
began it just after ne had recovered from
the sensations attendant upon being
knocked down fight of tall stairs. In
the upper chamber he had tried to fllch
the stakes put up on a card game. Bruce
Johnson objected and Cavanaugh drew
of him. Some one struck the knife and
it dropped, ard just there Johnson took
occasion to plant ms fist on Cavanaugh's
ebony countenance. That is why the man

Here it was that Bentrod entered upon
the scene. He told the dusky scrapper
he had better remove his fire form to the
outside of the saloon. Cavanaugh met
this suggestion with a burst of wrath and
explosives and at once prepared to renew
hostil;t:es. Edging towards the door he
jerked quart beer bottle from his pock-
ct and seemed about to put Bentrod to
sleep when p. c. Howell, also colored,

MERGED IS ALL RIGHT.
So Says E. s. De GoIyer Regarding
the Great California Property.


For some time past the Engineering
and Mining Journal has been driving
away at the MERGED Gold Mining COM
pany, organized by Montana and Bos-
ton capital for the purpose of work
ing a splendid group of gold properties
in Mariposa county, California. This
company is managed by Thomas
Couch, of EItte, formerly of this city,
and well known all over the territory.
The Journal says the company is not
what it is cracked up to be and ad-
vises the public not to purchaser the
stock. Only a short time ago this stock
was selling at $40 but now it is going
at $32. E. S. DeGolyer has just re-
turned from California, where he is in
terested, and the gentleman stated
yesterday that he had examined the
MERGED properties and they were
among the best in the United States.
Mr.. DeGolyer is of the opinion that
the group makes up the greatest
stretch of rich gold deposits IN the
world. Speaking Of this same property
the San Francisco Call says:
From a dull sort of sleepy hollow"
the town of Coulterville has recently
assumed the characteristics of thriv-
ing and prosperous village. The change
group Of mines included in the Seth
Cook property, purchased about two
years ago by a Boston and Montana
syndicate, since incorporated as the
MERGED Gold Mining company. Their
plan of operations will involve the dis
bursement of a large amount of work
ing capital, the prospecting of mines
to a depth not heretofore attempted,
the Introduction of a new water sup
ply from the TuolJmne river through
the old Golden Rock ditch, which for
merly had its terminal point at Big
Oak Flat, and the application of cleo
tricity as a motive power. The COM
pany already disburses over $40, 600
monthly in wages of employees, wood,
timber and mining supplies. They are
sinking two new three-comDartment
shafts, which have reached depth of
over 400 feet. Thay are using Bur-
leigh drills and their progress is very
rapid. From the Nelson shaft the Lou
isa and Marguerite will be worked,
while the Biglow shaft commands the
approaches to the ore bodies of the
Alvina No. / and No. ,, and theHPotosi.
The old shaft of the Mary Harrison
mine is being cleaned out and retim-
bered. The new shafts are expected
to strike the ore bodies at a depth of
500 feet. The machinery for the big
hosting works is now coming in and is
being rapidly put in place Upon the
of men whose observation
and practical experience qualify them
to form 9, correct judgment these new
works will be the finest in the
state.

SIDEWALKS ABOVE GRADE
Il Pointer For the City Council
From DubNuue.

Not long since the city council of Du-
buque, Ia, had matter to wrestie with
and the way in which it was settled
might well apply to this city.
Speaking of this the Dubuque Tele-
graph says:
The city council met in special SEES
sion this morning 10 help out the office

in front of the building and the beams
of the sidewalk in front of the property
abutting on the north was accepted as
correct. Saturday 1t was discovered that
this grade was an inch too high. Under
the ordinance the company could be COM
PEELED to lay the sidewalk over again

sidewalk to remain and agreed to do so

from damage suits and to pay the cost
block
taken up the matter of the pavement
laid on Second South street at Walkers
bank building, which is said to be fifteen
inches above grade. 1t so remains. 1t is
an understood fact that in the event of
an accident happening pedestrians, the
party so injured has a case for damages
against the city. The, question may well
be asked, why then, should not the prop I
city? There is also another feature -
tached to the matter of the Second SCUM
street walk, that is: Contractor Frank
Harrigan laid q. walk connecting with
the one above grade; he has as yet been
unable to collect payment, notwithstand
ing the walk was laid according to ordi-
nance and contract.
If Dubuque takes such precautions on
one inch above grade, what should Salt
lake city do on fifteen inches? The
question is one that should he squarely
