Jockey club. II was on the day that
her husband died that her horse Mer-
man won the great event of the year
at Newmarket and nearly e1O0.000 for
Mrs. Langtry, that the prince of Wales
conducted her into the Enclosure and

This act-it has generally been called
a breach on the part of his royal
highness-made a great stir. 1t was
commented upon most unfnvorably.
Even the newspapers deplored it.

IRRIGATION IN THE WEST.
Secretary Wilson's Investigations
The Rnngea Horse.

James Wilson. Secretary Of Agriculture
has returned from a trip through the
Western States, where he has been in
vestigating the systems Of irrigation In
Western Nebraska, Colorado. Wyoming,
Utah. part of Idaho. Montana. and North
Dakota, and the result of his observations
will be fraught with interest to western
agriculturists He has gone into the ques-
tiOn OF the condition OF the range morse.
He hopes 10 make the animal capable OF
competing with the horses OF Europe. In
an interview i'm Chicago he said:
THE principal object Of my trip through
these States was to ascertain TO what
extent they could add to the animal pro-
ductiOn by further irrigation. During the
course OF my observations | have found
that these States have already used up
the waters i'm many districts without be-
ing able to irrigate the bottom lands
They are now agitating the theory or
dammng the waters in winter Various
schemes are on foot to bring this about.
Some advocate the idea that the govern
ment should take ND the matter and pay
for the cost Of damming. Some think the
State governments should begin the work.
Others are organizing companies and sell
ing the stock in the East. Everything
points to renewed activity in agricui-
ture i'm these States.
This inquiry naturally leads to an in
vestigation of the condition of the range
horse. Why Is the horse Of the range
practically worthless? This is a question
which has troubled western agricultursts
for years. The range horse can be made
a profitable source of income. | find by
careful investigation over these several
States that the grasses of the uplands,
though they are never irrigated, are very
nutritious. They are just as nutritious
as the grasses OF Iowa, provided. OF
course, that the animal gets enough of

We tried to 20 through them, and did not

WAS DUMB TwENTY-THREE YEARS
a Remarkable Case of Recovery Of
tho Voice.

paris Special in New York SUM-
Professor Drouot, Of the National In
sttute for the Deaf and Dumb, in this
city, describes a singular case OF a dumb
person recovering the faculty OF speech
a child was stricken with dumbness,
after serious illness, at the age OF 9
years He is now 25 years Old, and had
not uttered a sound since his illness
until the other day. He then crayed
whiff of tobacco. and was vainly trying
10 make his sister understand what he
wanted. when he mechanically uttered the
word "tabac." Since then he has con-
tinled TO speak fluently
Professor Drouot examined the case
and declares that Ii is strange and rare
one, but adds that 1t can be explained
By the fact that the young man was not
deaf. only dumb. He considers that his
dumbness was due to part paralysis and
debility of the vocal chords, and that
speech was regained when, with the lapse
OF years, the vocal organs gained
strength.
