THE HOOSIER POET.

James Whitcomb Riley Was Once a
Farmer Boy-His Poetic Genius. =.
The tone of James Whitcomb Riley's
poetry tells for itself that he was once
a farmer boy. His fathers home was
in the old farming town Of Greenfield,
Ind, and there the lad grew up in the
midst of sweet healthy country life,
although the. poet is apt to confess
with merry twinkle in his eye that he
was of little use in farming, yet, as he
adds, "My father used to press us boys
into the service in corn-plantin' time
and we went very Faithfully, at least,
did" He tells frankly, too, that he was
no scholar, for, as he confesses, '"At 16
I could not repeat the simplest school
boy speech without breaking; down
and rather than undertake it deliber-
ately chose to take whipping"
After leaving, school, says Farm and

A Fakir's Ingenuity.

Enormous business has been done
lately at French fairs by man who
professed to sell rat powder that was
perfectly harmless and that struck rats
dead on the spot. In order to convince
the skeptical the man, first of all. pow
dered a slice of bread with the stuff.
and ate piece of it himself. Then he
put the remainder under a glass case.
in which rat was kept in captivity.
The rat went to eat the bread and in
stantly fell dead. At 5 pence box the
powder went off like hot rolls, and the
lucky proprietor Of the specific was in
a fair way to make a fortune. But the
police, who in France are very active IN
protecting the people from a fraud.
looked into the matter and found tina t
the powder was nothing but ordinary
sugar. They also discovered that the
case was connected with a powerful
electric battery, and the moment the
rat touched the bread the current was
turned on. and it was thus his death
was brought about. The man was s.r-
rested at the fair of Abb, and he has
been sentenced to fifteen days impris-
onment.

LAMENTATIONS TRIUMPH.

Only Accident Revealed the eubstitu.
ton Of Horse Meat for Beef.
For some time past, says the Chicago
Times, John Murrato and partner
whose name cannot be learned have
been selling prime cuts Of beef to the
people living about 10Th and Clinton
streets at prices which have detied
competition. The juiciest sirloins, the
latest rib roasts, the most desirable
and Is cents pound cheaper than the
grasping rival butchers would accept
for their inferior wares. The general
impression among the Italian colony
was that buying Murrato's beef was
being in some way accessory after the
fact to a felony, and the only thing
they doubted was what particular kind
of a crime it was that they were en-,
couraging. They never would have
found out if Murrato had kept his rent
paid up, but when his landlord broke
into his barn Monday and found de-
funct horse hung up for dissection there
was considerable talk and some naI-
sea among Mr.. Murrato's customers
about Jefferson and Clinton and LIN
and 18th streets. In fact, very unklnd
things were said, and the canker OF
suspicion lies upon much South Side
sausage and many chuck steaks even
vet. Mr.. Murato's business is prach-
cally ruined, and the fact illustrates the
power Of the human fancy over tue
human appetite. TO relish horse one
must be the victum of illusion; one must
be credulous and trusting; one must
have that faith which in a case of this
sort is better than works But let
blow be struck at the public confidence,
let it appear that a person is can
destinely introducing into the systems
of his neighbors queer weird, uncann!
kinds Of flesh not crusted over with the
approval of precedent, and that butcher
might just as well move to Pekin.
And yet the distaste for horse and TOT
other unusual or at least allegedly M
usual. meats is mere prejudice. 1t IS
