What Victoria Could Do.

AS matter of fact, our soyereigns
have rarely taken any active part in
politics since George HIS time, but
they could still do some very astonish-
ing things if they chose The queen
could dismiss every Tommy Atkins in
our. army, from the commander in chief
to the youngest drummer boy. She
could disband the navy i'll tho same way,
and sell all our ships, stores and arse
nails to the first customer that came
along. Acting entirely on her own re-
sponsibility, she could declare war
against any foreign country, or make a
present to any foreign power of any
part of the empire. She could make ev-
cry man, woman and child in the coun-
try peer of tho realm, with the right,
i'll the case of males who are of age, to
seat i'll the house of lords
With n single word she could dismiss
any government that happened to be in
power, and could, it is believed, pardon
and liberate all the criminals in our
jails. These are few of tho things the
queen could do if she liked, but it is
not necessary 20 say that her majesty
never acts i'll matters of state except on
the advice of the government for the
time being London Tit-Bits.

witty Cowartls.

There were few real towards in the
civil war, and yet many an officer on
both sides has amusing stories of coward
ice to tell, especially of the earlier pc
Rod of the great conflict. General Joseph
Z. Johnston, the Confederate command
er, now dead, used to relate that in
one of those early battles, and in the
hottest part of the action, he felt his
coattails pulled. Turning about, no rec
ognizcd a young man who had been en-
ployed in his tobacco factory previous to
enlistment.
"Why are you not in your place fight
ing?" the general demanded angrily.
why, answered the youth, ~ just
wanted to tell you that. if you don t
mind, reckon I will take my day Off
today!"
Admiral David D. Porter once said
that he had asked friend who had
fought all through the war, and mado
all excellent record, if he had ever killed
n man.
Yes, he answered, in remorseful
tone. cat Bull Run ran at the first

INDIAN Territory Town Sites.

Ex-senator Henry L. Dawes, tho
chairman Of the Indian commission, says
that the town site question in tho Indian
Territory has become one of great i'm
portance. There arc now about 800, 600
white people in tho Indian Territory.
They have built up towns, but are mere
tenants at sufferance, without particle
OF title to the lands on which they built.
The Indian courts arc closed against
them, asHS the Indian schools to their
ehildrepA 10, 900 of whom have no other
opportunity fos schooling, excepting
those whose parents are able to hire pri-
vate TEACHERS. They have no voice in the
soyesnnenss Of these five nations, nor a
police officer 1 protect them or their
Epperty against violence
:. It will be the object Of the commits
Pion, first, to obtain such O solution Of
ehe town site question that those who
have built up these towns and invested
large sums in costly buildings and ex-
pensive stores and trading places may
have some title to the ground upon
which the structures stand and some
voice i'll their government. and, secondly,
TO see that the vast and valuable terri.
tory shall DO held either according to
abe original title, for all Indians equal
~, or shall be allotted in seve1alty to
them, so that each may hold his own
share in fee.

TRAFFIC IN TANeleR.
1t Is Largo and Continuous and Appar-
emily Conducted Under Difficulties


The trailio in Tangier is large and
continuous. There is no footpath proper,
and the foot passenger has often to pick
his way among heavily laden donkeys
and camelS. Sometimes he is jostled by
Jews III dark blue jelabs and skullcaps,
the distinctive badges of their race
sometimes his progress is stopped by Il
burly negro slave, all i'll white or faded
yellow, bearing OH his head tray of
Dread from the public bakehouse; some
times he is swept into q miry corner by
half dozen of tho sultan's cavalry,
whose richly caparisoned steeds, flow
ing robes, fintlocks or spears, make up
altogether all imposing spectacle. Per-
haps also he may find himself confront
ed by huge packing case borne down
the street on the back of donkey and
supported on each side by men of color,
who alarm the eighborhood with shouts
of "balak.
The most interesting sight in Tangier
at least, from IN artistic point of view
lis the sok, or large market place for
country products. 1t lies immediately
outside the wall in the upper part OF
the town and is approached through
the old slave market, now converted
into shooting forge. In the forenoon it
is too crowded to be interesting, but in
the afternoon, when business has some
what slackened, scenes of varied inter-
est may be observed.
Yonder is water carrier, with large
goatskin bag slung over his shoulder,
attracting your attention with the tin
kle of bell to tho refreshing draft
he offers. Here is a gaunt Arab from
the Riff mountains, bareheaded, blank
ct draped and flashing eyed, interview
ing with fierce and threatening gestures
an obdurate looking Jew, who is evil

Near them is q country woman seated
behind small semicircle of milk jars.
Her shriveled, wornout features can
be discerned through the folds of her
coarse haik, which she holds carelessly
together with her left hand, while with
her right sho lifts the lid from one Of
tho jars. Good Words

ANIMAL CURIOSlTIES.
Tree Climbing Rabbits, Sheep Eating Par
rots and Sheep That Love Snails.

Tree Climbing Rabbits, Sheep Eating Par
rots and Sheep That Love Snails.
1t seems almost stretch of the i'm
agination to think of rabbits climbing
trees. Yet in Australia many rabbits
have somehow acquired the tree climb
ing habit, having been forced, on ac-
count of tho prosecutions of dogs and
other animals, to drop Gurrowing and
initiate squirrels. An Australian sent
on to England recently tho two front
feet of Il rabbit that had been killed OH
al acacia, three yards from the ground,
and he wrote i'll his letter that this was
not at all a remarkable thing, and he
had often found them, or Mt least the
traces of their claws, OH the bark Of
trees four, five and six yards high.
For parrot to eat sheep is another
remarkable thing, and yet the ken of
New Zealand has become sheep eater,
having changed to this article of food
from Il purely vegetable diet The kca
has proved u serious source of annoy
ance to tho New Zealand herdsmen, and
sc1ethods have been taken for the destruc-
ton of the species. These gay colorcd
little birds will eat almost any kind of
meat, BUT 1T is sheep that they prefer.
They have been known to kill as
many rs 200 i'll single night and have
dono serious harm to the flocks. Tho
tradition of the island is that mt one
time these parrots We're unable to OBJ
tain their usual supply of vegetable
food and that i'll desperation they invad-
ed tho "drying rooms' and ate whatev-
er came to hand, finding sheep meat
agreeable. In Iceland almost all the
horses are fish eaters, for the reason that
the grain is scarce there and fish is
plentiful. III England sheep are known
who delight i'll snails. The observation
of this fact is not new it dates back
100 years.
1t is well known that largo number
of inscctivorous birds become grain eat
ers whenever they find that they cannot
procure their ordinary diet Of insects

Rreehlnr and Feeding.

4 well-known breeder of Aberdeen.
Angus cattle has been relating how he
breeds and feeds cross-bred cattle on
his Scottish farm. 1t may be well to
see If wrinkle cannot be got from his
practice. He buys a number Of cross
bred heifers, which he mates with a
Folled Angus bull. He allows the heir-
ers to suckle their calves the following
year, and at weaving time the inferior
heifers are fattened off. the best being
sold again, and sold as calving cows.
To augment the number of stores thus
obtained. he adopts a most useful and
exemplary system. He gives the use OF
his biack-polled bulls to all neighbor-
ing cow-keepers on condition that he
gets the calves. The owners of the
cows, to whom the milk supply is all
important, part with the calves cheaply
and quickly. These youngsters have,
therefore, to be reared by hand, and for
the first ten weeks they are fed with
new milk. From this point they are
gradually transferred to fresh diet OF
sRim-milk, llnseed and oatmeal por-
ridge, and at four or FIVE months they
are entirely weaned, and are given
cakes and meals along with grass, The
sucked calves receive no supplement
tary food until they are weaned, at the
age OF seven or eight months. The
calves are then put together. and fed
with autumn tares, followed by turnips.
and about three pounds each per day
OF cakes and meals during the first win
ter. They get no artificial food when
on the grass the following summer, but
when driven into the courts early in
autumn, turnips and sometimes pota-
toes, are fed in liberal quantities. The
cake and meal feeding is also resumed,
and the daily allowance gradually in
creased, until at twenty months, each
animal receives over eight pounds.
They are generally ready for the fat
market at from twenty to thirty
months. This system is found profitable
even at present prices, but 1t is insisted
that the best and purest class of bulls
only be used. The breeder referred TO
employs Aberdeen-Angus sires from his
pedigreed herd, but he suggests that
pure-bred short horn bulls might be
equally satisfactory. The heifers he
buys for breeding from are generally
cross bred lean Irish, and he serves
them about April or May, when about
eighteen months old.-Mark Lane Ex-
press.
