there was altogether IA very extra binary

MORE rapid and cheaper street
and suburban transit, the bicycle
for pleasure and business, all at the
expense of steam and horse, have
been, developed within the past ten
years. Only those who have
travelled extensively during this
period can appreciate the great
change wrought. In the densely
populated districts OF the eastern
part of the United States the electric
passenger and freight lines are
driving steam lines from the field.
In all sections horse power is at
a discount. France, a country
which frequently makes the world
an appropriate present, has now
entered this arena and promises
to again revolutionize ideas and
practice. The inventors in and
about Paris are working OH horse
SIS vehicles and if the accounts
sent out are to be given hall ere
dence, have surmounted all diff
culties. The only condition they
demand is well-kept roads. Given
these they provide vehicles capable
of carrying loads at the speed OF
fifteen miles an hour. tits declared
that economy and practical use are
established. Oddly enough gaso
line distilled from petroleum car
ried, is the fuel. Electric motors
were given up after many trials.
There is no smoke and little heat.
Vehicles for carriage or pleasure
riding are supplied with small res
ervoirs, carrying twenty-four hours
store. From Paris, London and
New York comes the verdict that
hese wagons and carriages will be
n general use in a very short time.

The horse is easily killed by electricity.
II Is popularity supposed that the current,
on entering the body, meets with some
physiological susceptibility that makes
this animal more vulnerable than others
to the action Of such current The Lon
don Lancet holds that there Is no good
ground for this assumption. The expla-
nation lies elsewhere The hoof, and more
particularly its crust and sole, is a good
insulator, but the shoe presents to the
ground IA large metallic contact, and this
contact Is in connection with metallic con-
ductors In the shape Of nails, which pierce
the strongest part Of the insulation and
afford an easy electrical path into the body.
The contact with earth Is further improved
by the great superintendent weight OF the
animal, and 1t may often happen that In
passing over wet ground the external sur
face Of the hoof and the wet fetlock, espe.
cially In the case Of untrimmod horses,
may become sufficiently wet TO form good
surface conductor and So carry current
directly from the earth TO the upper part
OF the body. In this way the safety Of tho
natural resistance" Of the hoof is neutral

than man and runs greater risk from be.

A poet knows when he has been accept

one day to his friend, Mrs. Claflin, who

IT IS not illogical to assume that
those individuals who become so

have not much at stake themselves.
However, while the Government

ample resources.

Bed Napoleon Died Upon.

A French traveller who has been Wis
iting the island Of st. Helena, declares
that the house in which Napoleon died
Is in sad state of dilapidation and neg
lect. Not a vestige of furniture remains
within its four walls, the only object
visible being a bust of Bonaparte in
the room in which he expired. II the
edifice is devoid of furniture, however,
there are at least ten times as many
chairs, wardrobes, washstands, etc, In
other parts of the world, supposed to
have been in it, as would fill dozen
houses OF like proportions. For In
stance, the bed on which Napoleon
died is TO be found at the Invalides, at
Nine. Tussaud's and at the Grevie
museum. The very same bed is in the
possession of Marquis de Biron, and of
the family Of Marshal Bertrand. Prince
Nturat also has 1t. 1t is needless to
state that all these beds are the real
and only authentic ones on which the
great Corsican breathed his last.

COSTUMES FOR DOGS.
A Frenchmsn Who Poses as a Worth for
the Pet Puppies Of Paris.

1t is interesting TO learn through the
channel of Paris correspondent of the
London Daily Graphic that the French
capital can boast Of tailor for pet
dogs. The writer recently said:
No matter what the dress may be.
the Indispensable companion Of the
woman who walks is her little dog.
Short-haired terrier or long-haired toy,
it is of no moment. provided that it be
very tiny. At the moment it is per-
haps the former which is the more
popular, as he furnishes further ex-
cuSe for the exhibition of fur, in that
his smooth coat does not appear to his
kindhearted mistress sufficient pro-
lection from the cold Of this season of
the year And So the little dog has his
tailor even as his owner, and Lebouble
of the Palais Royal may be called the
Worth of the kennel. With garments
of velvet trimmed with fur or of cloth
strap, stitched and embroidered, the
clothing of the little creature harmo-
nizes with that of his possessor Some
ladies provide macxintoshes for their
pets for rainy days, and have them
the ears. Others there are who choose
tartan, having points turned back at
the shoulders, and fastened with strap
round the body. For those believed to
be particularly chilly, the coats are
provided with collars of quite Medici
style, and are lined throughout with
astrakan, or even beaver, as these short
furs are not too cumbrous for the pet
ted animals. There are some which
actually have umbrellas of darkblue
silk, which they have been taught to
carry quite straight and steadily be-
tween their teeth in the event of sud
den shower They are also provided
with handkerchiefs in case of accident,
tiny pocket in which to carry these
being placed on one side of the coat.
These handkerchiefs, should add, are
found useful when madame stops few
minutes at the confectioner's and can
wipe her pets nose and paws after his
share in the delicacies she buys"
