A Cab Horses Feat.

Journey without either it Or the vehicle
dragged behind it being any the worse
for tie adventure il certainly a remark
able animal. which might legitimately
lock forward to figuring il soEe circus
rather than dragging fares YEARLY
through tho Paris streets. The animal
which has just distinguished itself in
tie way described was, we read, waiting
patiently il o certain street Of the
French capital the other morning,
while its driver vas fast asleep inside
the vehicle. The whistling Of a passing
train, it is surmised, reused the horse
from it, coatomplations, and it deter
mined to start of at q brisl, trot to as
certain what the wnistling meant. It
happens that the street in question is
divided By two flights Of steps. anu the
horse, III its peIegrinations, reached the
top Of them. At this apparently critical
moment tho cabman inside the vehicle
suddenly woke, and perceiying the dan
ger ahead ha jumped out, rather BADLY
hurting himself BY the fall. The sequel
Of the incident shows that he would
have been better inspired had he re-
NAMED whare lie was. The horse, with
cut esen scratching itself or in any way
damaging the cab, reached the bottom
Of the fight Of steps, and when a couple
OF policemen hustled up, expecting to
find q smashed to atoms cab and a dead
horse, they We're d nazed TO discover the
down stairs journey had been neatly ac-
complished, and that the animal was
not even excited BY this little adven-
| ture. --Loud0n Standard.
