6lendale nerd owned by Dickinson h
Tyson and he prunounces the men,
bers of the herd as being among the
finest in the world. He traded bull
calf born last December and called
the Pride of Denison for bull calf
of Dickinson & Tyson's herd named
Pride of Minnesota, and born last
June. Pride of Denison was sired by
Heather Lad 4th, by Jim Jams, inn
ported by the famous Harvey of Turl-
ington. The dam was the I'd Pride of
Tillyfour. The Pride of Minnesota
was sired by Golden Abbott, whose
dam was the Abbess of burlington.
and whose sire was Guinea, a worlds
sweepstakes winner at the British
shows. The dam of Pride of Minne-
sofa was Pride Of the Glen, one of
the leading COWS on the Glendale
farm. Mr.. McHenry states that for
fattening purposes the Polled Angus
cattle are far in the lead, particularly
in this cold climate. He claims that
they can stand much more cold than
other breeds on account of the thick
robe they are given by nature. Cattle
men, he said, admit that Polled Angus
cattle will feed in cold weather when
other breeds will stand with their
backs bumped up.

rae First stage COACH.
1t Was an Expensive Luxury to Ride

1t Was an Expensive Luxury to Ride
on II.
The first stage coach between the
two capitals, London and Edinburgh,
appears to have been started in 1858.
1t ran once fortnight and the fare
was "a. The time taken to the Jour-
ney is not accurately known; but be-
tween York and London it was four
days. This lavish system of commun-
ication was not, however, kept up, as,
in 1862, the coach ran between Lon
don and Edinburgh once a month only,
taking a fortnight, if the weather was
favorable, to the journey.
In the days Of stage coaches, says
the Chambers Journal. people some
times dubbed together and hired a
post chaise for their journey, as being
quicker and less expensive, and Scot
fish newspapers occasionally con-
tanned advertisements to the effect
that person about to proceed to
London would be glad to hear of q
fellow ''adventurer" or two bent on
the same journey, to share the ex-
pense.
In 1745 a heroic effort was made to
improve the London and Edinburgh
coach. The Edinburgh "Courant" for
that year contained the following ad-
vertisement: 1.-THE Edinburgh stage
coach, for the better accommodation OF
passengers, will be altered into a new
genteel, two-end glass coach machine,
being on steel springs, built exceed
ingly light, and easy to go in ten days
in summer and twelve in winter; TO
set out the first Tuesday in March,
and continue it from Hosea Eastgate's,
the coach and horses. in Dean street,
Soho, London, and from John Somer-
ville's, in the Canongate, Edinburgh,
&c. The passengers to pay as usual.

dutiful servant, Hosea Eastgate.

IN the quaint old town of Sebree,
KY, knows Rondo. and there is no
exaggeration in saying that Rondo
has a personal acquaintance with
more people than the average politi-
clan.
The early part of Rondo's life is in
volved in some doubt and a great
deal of obscurity. 1t is known, how
ever. that he first saw the light of
day in the manger of a livery stable
in 1856 and as he sprarg frora Scotch
English ancestry everything in the
shape of rat he beheld from the
very first with violent antipathy.
He soon made himself terror to the
rodent family, and his accomplish
ments in this direction led an admir-
ing Kentucky gentleman to adopt
Rondo and take upon himself the
the supervision of his care
and training, hoping that "age
would perform the promises OF
youth" The two soon became
conspicuous about town, and their at
tachment for each other sometimes
caused the boys to sing Comrades
as they passed along the street.
In year or two Rondo succeeded
in DISCRIMINATING all the rates within
his reach and then became a living
example of the adage that ''An idle
brain is the devils workshop" He
began to form bad habits and became
a frequent visitor of saloons, gambling
rooms and other such places, setting
such pace that his admiring bene-
factor did not care to follow, and the
two began drifting apart
About this time young pension
agent located in the town of Rondo's
birth, and a case of mutual love at
first sight sprang up between them.
In little while the pension agent
entirely supplanted the Kentucky
gentleman in Rondo's affection, where
upon the latter promptly disowned
and cast him off. But this did not
affect Rondo to any extent His new
master furnished him with a night
key and let him go where he pleased,
and Rondo pleased to be pretty
high roller.
One morning in 1889, however,
Rondo woke up and found that
his friend had gone. He watch
ed about the hotel for
many days, smelling every newcomer
after the fashion of his kind, but the
days heightened into months and he
came not Then Rondo had no one to
pay his board bill at the hotel and he
was forced to become a dead beat.
To a dog of his hyphenated ancestry
this was very distasteful, but he was
friendless and alone and there was no
other alternative. After figuring as
q decayed vegetable for year or
two, he lost all self-respect and went
to the dogs at rapid rate. His asso-
ciates were the worst in town and
bad company eventually got him into
trouble.
One night while engaged in an
angry controversy with several other
CANNES, the peace was fractured to
such an extent that a blood thirsty
citizen discharged q fowling piece
into the crowd. 1t was Rondo's mis-
fortune to catch part of the load and
one of his fore leps was broken. The

next morning he was found on
the street drawing the wages of sin.
He had nowhere to go, and no friends
to appeal to in his distress.
An old colored woman found
him and carried him to the
home of Col. Charley Thompson, who
took him in and proved to him a
friend indeed. He put the broken leg
in sling and doctored it for weeks
until Rondo was once more restored
to health. Col. Thompson intro
duced him to his friends and Rondo
once more found himself in good so
ciety.
Rondo accompanied his new master
on several journeys and acquired a
taste for travel that he has never
been able to resist He has been all
eVer the state of Kentucky as we'll as
having visited many of the largest
cities in the country. On one of his
earliest trips he was forced to leave
the coach and travel in the baggage
car. This was great blow to his
pride, and his experience taught him
q lesson. He came to the conclusion
that conductors were not his friends,
and ever afterward he always took
pains to conceal himself under the
seat, but never under the seat oc-
cupied by his travelling companion.
He was too considerate to give away
his friends.
One of his trips was to
Grayson Springs, Kentucky, with
Company D, Kentucky state
militia, and he became much infat-
uated with soldier life. At another
time he started 70 Paducah with his
