Kerry.s LIIliputian Cattle.

The little cows of Kerry. ireland
may be considered as the survivors of
the great massacre OF Irish cattle per-
petrated by the English soldiers Of
queen Elizabeth. All that the defiant
Irish had to live upon was their cattle
and they held them correspondingly
precious. The Kerry cows probably es-
capped the great slaughter when the
English drove their fees and
their herds to the mountains, where
the hardy little animals surviy-
ed and are represented to this
day. The original Kerrys are
little black or red creatures, with bright
eyes and crooked horns. the females
having heads a trifie too large for
beauty. One famous COW now rejoic-
ing in several prizes at Dublic cattle
shows measures only two inches over
yard in height, seventy inches in
gfrth and forty-two inches in length,
from the top Of the shoulder to the roo:
OF the tail. Another famous little an.
imal has the record OF giving in forty
weeks four tons, seven hundred weight
OF butter. These diminutive creatures
are charming as pets and can be al
lowed to run in small lots and pad
docks near the house, where cows of
an ordinary size would look out of
place. The Kerry cattle have a r.
markable faculty of taking care OF
themselves, and an instance Is related
OF a small COW. being placed in a stall
between two cows of the usual size,
refusing to touch her own ample sup
ply OF hay till she had slipped her head
under those of her neighbors and
quletIt appropriated their provender;
another tiny pet was seen to kneel.
actually wriggle under n low chain and
calmly begin feasting on a forbidden
lawn which lay just beyond. OF the
Kerry breed there are now two kinds
the Kerrys proper and the Dexte.
herrys. These pretty little creatures
are frequently compared with the black
cattle Of the Orkneys and ShetlandS.
which were said at one time to be so
small that man might pick them up
and carry them in a beat from one is
land to another.

Forbidden Presents.

Some OF the naval officers who &C.
eompanied the cruiser Brooklyn to the
queens jubilee ceremonies have unex-
pectedly fallen into trouble. and a way
out has not yet presented itself. One
day In London a party of officers were
being shown through various buildings
by the keeper Of the queens priv
purse. While making the rounds he
ordered that some medals be struck
on, and gave one to each of his guests
as . souvenir. All OF them accepted
the presents and brought the pretty
little trinkets home. After returning
to this country one of the officers be-
came worried by the fear that he haC
transgressed the rules and regulations
He made a statement of the case &c
the secretary Of the navy, and received
a reply that such a medal. even If pre-.
sented as souvenir, could not be &C.
eepted without a special act OF con-
gTess. The other officers of the Brook
Ign who accepted these medals are
however, holding on to their gifts and
saying nothing about them.-New York

"r1eeon Droppers" in Law.

From the Kansas City Journal: In the
trial Of q case in a police court at Law
renee the other day the lawyers were
puzzled to discover in an old city or
|dInanee the words pigeon dropper,
which were evidently used to denomi-
nate a certain class Of criminal. No
one. however, knew anything about
the class or their methods, and q dis
|cussion was started which lasted for
several days and brought out all sorts
OF explanations. Finally F. w. Reed
solved the riddle. He said that forty
years ago, when he was in business In
New York city, the term was COM
mon one in police court circles. About
that time q new confidence game was
started which required a brace OF con-
|federates to successfully operate 1t.
They would pick up man on the street
who looked easy" when one Of the
eonfederates would 60 ahead and drop

kained at least 81 900: that the loss

Bones of = Mastodon Found.

Wisconsin correspondence of Chica-
90 Dispatch: A discovery was recently
made in the County of Richmond on
the farm Of ]. C. Dasch which is of in
terest to students of natural history,
and which, as a relic of a bygone age,
is q curiosity. Persons walking along
the banks of Elm creek, q SMALL
stream flowing through the Dasch
farm, discovered that the heavy rains
had dislodged from a resting place of
several thousand years the bones of
some prehistoric creature of gigantic
stature, which are thought to be the
remains OF a mastodon. The following
day Mr.. Daseh, assisted by neighboring
farmers. began digging along the banks
Of the creek where the bones first dis
covered were washed out, and after
reaching a depth Of about eight feet,
was rewarded by unearthing about
thirty different bones of the monster
skeleton. A part of a rib. apparently
representing about three-fourths of the
original length, measured over three
and one-half feet, and the circumfer-
Snce OF lne pOHe Vi lne mum iCB al
the knee joint, as accurately measured
by Dasch, was thirty-nine inches. 9th
Ter bones were proportionately large.
The damp blue clay in which the skele-
ton was embedded had assisted in keep
ing 1t In an almost perfect state Of
preservation, and it gave but little ev-
idence Of having remained buried in
the earth since the time when man.
mails, instead Of man were predomi-
nant. Several flint arrow heads were
also picked up near where the remains
were found. Searchers are now en-
deayoring to procure those parts of
the skeleton not yet found and 1t win
probably occupy a prominent place in
the State Historical Museum at Mad
ison.
