In the year 100 the cutter sparrow

was engaged In the slave trade. But al
though much circumstantial evidence
pointed In that direction, no clear proof
could be obtained, as the captured ves-
sci had no papers from which tho
charge could be concluslvcly substanti-
ated. The suspected brig was therefore.
discharged, but scarcely twelve hours
before she was to leave the harbor n
man.of-war arrived, bringing some
documents which proved her guilt be-
yond the shadow Of n doubt. !!
These papers had been obtained in q
manner almost exceeding the bounds Of

GRASS EARNED a LUNCHEON,
IL Grew in the Side walk Of One of New

II Grew In the side walk Of One Of New
York's Busiest Streets. ,
Last spring I was chatting with q
young fellow who was boasting of the
liveliness Of the metropolis. He was
20 oppressively metropolitan that, JUST
to stir him up bit, offered to show,
him grass growing in the streets Of
New York within 800 feet Of the United
States sub.treasury.
He was very shrewd and wary about
It, and after pinning me down to my
assertion he offered to bet me 500 /
could not do It.
Then I mildly mentioned that the
grass I'd show should not only be In
the street, but on the sidewalk. At that
lie raised his ante to $1,000
told him 1900 was no object to q
man as rich as I was, but luncheon
was, and II he'd reduce the wager to
that, and pay up on the spot, 1t was a
bet
Then took him to Nassau street, be-
tween Cedar and Pine. There there aro
two little openings in the sidewalk,
covered with a sort Of openwork brass
lids. flush with the flags, but running a
little below them. In these little spaces
below, perhaps twenty blades Of grass
were sprOuting away, perpetually
shaven of at their tops, Of course. by
the passing feet, but thriving we'll

This year could not repeat that per-

Horse DISEASE ~ DUBUQuE-A
strange disease among horses made its
appearance in some of the barns and
livery stables 10 Dubuque, Iowa, about
two weeks ago and has caused much
trouble and anxiety among owners
of good horses. This disease,
with its accompanying symptoms,
resembles what is known as the grippe,
which proved so disastrous among
people the past few years, and which
was 80 difficult TO treat: "The animal
becomes stupid refuses food and water,
and in some cases the eyes become en-
larged and look duh and watery, and
in good many cases the animal has to
be tied so that he can not get near the
stall, as he would be in danger Of in
juring the eyes by rubbing them
against the wall or manger. The dis
ease is apparently very contagious, as
is shown by the fact that horses re-
moved from one barn 10 another in
yariably carry the malady TO the other
horses In other cases, where one
horse in a stable is attacked, the dis
eases passes around the entire number.
Several horses, some Of them valuable
animals, have already died from the
disease. ~ Elk.

Brighton (England) Advertiser of June
