Traits of This Hardy Little Rover of the
Western Plains.
A few words about this horse-the
horse of the plains. Whether or no his
forefathers looked on when Montezu-
ma fell, they certainly hailed from
Spain. And whether it was missiona-
ries or thieves who carried them north
ward from Mexico, until the Sioux
heard of the new animal. certain it
also is that this pony ran wild for
century or two, either alone or with
various red-skinned owners: and as he
gathered the sundry experiences of
war and peace, of being stolen, and of
being abandoned in the snow at neon
venient distances from home, or being
ridden bv two women and baby at
once, and of being eaten by bear, his
wide range of contretempS brought
him a wit sharper than the street
Arabs, and an attitude toward life
more blase than in the united capitals
of Europe. | have frequently caught
him watching me with an eye of such
sardonic depreciation that | felt it
quite vain TO attempt any hiding from
him of my incompetence; and as for
surprising him, locomotive cannot do
it. for l have tried this. He relishes
putting man in absurd positions,
and will wait many days in patience
to compass this uncharitable thing:
and when he cannot bring man

the man to rope and throw these
/ animals with an ingenuity surprising
any circus, to my thinking. A num-
Der of delighted passengers on the
Kansas Pacific railway passed by a
/ Mexican vaquero, who had been sent
out from Kansas City to rope a buffalo
as an advertisement for the stock
yards. The train stopped to take "a
look at the solitary horseman fast to d

ened his legs and leaned back as in a
tug of war, by jumps and lodges so
anticipating each move of the enemy
that escape was entirely hopeless.
The boy got his drink, and his EN-
ployer sent out car for the buffalo,
which was taken in triumph into Kan
sas City behind the passenger train.
The Mexican narrated the exploit to
his employer thus: "Oh, Shirley, when

AfectiOnateIy Remembers Its Master

There lived in Auburn. N. Y, some
sixty years ago, clergyman, an init
mate friend of my grandmother. This
gentleman owned an exceedingly beau
tiful. feet and graceful sorrel mare,
which bore the classic name of Diana.
She was the admiration of the town
and the pride of the clergyman's fam
ilv. But, alas! one dark and stormy
night the barn was boldly entered, and
the beautiful Diana stolen from her
stall. All efforts to discover the clever
thief. though long and perseveringly
continued, were useless. At last the
emily sorrowing abandoned hope; an

chased. to which. by the way, the chill
dren would not allow any occupancy Of
the old stall of their pet, for that, with
everything else that belonged to her,
they insisted upon keeping sacred to
her memory.
Nearly twenty years had passed, the
clergyman's hair had grown white with
age. and his children had become young
men and women, when he Glanced one
nrtumn to be called on business to a
remote part of the state. Having an

A Hen That Kills Mice.

Councilman Samuel Bell, horse in-
porter of Wooster, o., has a Minorca
pullet that takes as much delight il
catching rats and mice as a cat or dog.
The hen was raised with litter of fox
terriers and from being associated
constantly with the dogs has acquired
their hatred for the rodents. She will
tackle the largest kind, ana, while She
has never killed large one, will keep
them at bay until the dogs come to her
relief. She has killed many half
grown ones. She seems to know that
the big rats are too much for her. 1t
is in dispatching mice that she is at
home. and two to four picks from her
bill always lay the mouse out. A fun
ny part of the hens accomplishment is
that she will stand for hours on watch
for mice. and when one appears pounce
on it with the fury of cat.

of the scenery to the strange behavior
OF an old horse confined in pasture by
the roadside. The creature seemed
bent upon attracting the clergymans
notice; it pranced, snorted and beat the
fence with it's forefeet, keeping all the
time in line with the slowly moving
chaise. Wondering a little as to the
cause of such singular conduct, the
clergyman drove along to the pasture,
and then turned from it down road
which branched off in an opposite di-
rection. AS he did so, he was startled
by cry of such human agony from the
poor creature in the pasture that he in

back.
There. at the corner Of the fence. she
stood. her neck thrust despairingly for
ward. trembling in every muscle of her
body, her eyes fixed upon him with an
expression Of utter. helpless misery,
which strangely moved the tender
hearted clergyman. He now discovered
that the head and face of the animal
bore 4 marked resemblance to his lost
Diana. Impressed by the likeness he
obeyed a sudden impulse, and drove
rapidly back to a farmhouse near the
pasture. where he found the farmer
Just getting up from his twelve o'clock

How to Keep Plates Hot.

One of the latest adaptations of
electric heating is the electric mot
plate" for keeping food hot. during
dinner. The metal plate is electrically
heated before being brought to the
table: but should it be necessary to
renew the heat a plug is inserted at
the side of the plate, connection is
made with a socket on the table and
the current is kept on as long as
needed. A new form of hot plate for
kitchen use has three disks fitted in a
row into a stand, electrical connection
being tablished by a socket under
each plate. The stands are nickel
plated and the plates are each eight
inches in diameter.-N. Y. Sun.
