EVERY DEALER CLAIMS
IT'S A MYSTERY

ITO us how the OWNERS OF HORSES

to do good service, thrive and be comfor-
table, with the kind of SHOEING that is,
in general vogue in this section. The.
idea seems to be that anybody can set and
drive on shoes; but the idea is erroneous.
There is not more than one "shoer'; in,
five that understands his business, and,
besides, there are some who know how
that do not do as well as they know. A
Horse or Mule is uncomfortable and suf-
fers from ill-fitting shoes the same as an,
individual does; at least that is what the
leading veterinary surgeons say about it,
and the statement seems reasonable.

SPANKING A SoLDIER.-A Conted-
crate captain recently told Mr.. J. A.
Watrous, writer of "war stories" l"
about two small boys who, during the
Civil war, found their way into the
Louisiana regiment to which the cap
tain belonged. Both were from 10 to
12 years old, and both had run away
from home, and were serving as drum
mers.
: At the battle of Shiloh one of these
little fellows threw away his drum
early in the engagement, picked up
the musket of wounded soldier, and
fought like young hero as long as the
battle ragged.
Not long after the battle, while the
boy.soldier's laurels were still fresh
upon him, his mother learned where
be was and came after him. The reg
iment was drilling at the time, and the
boy was with it. The mother rushed
upon the drill ground and seized her
boy. ~,
"Run away from home, will you ?"
she screamed, "why, you are nothlng
more than baby. You come right
home with your mother"
AS the boy showed some unwilling
ness, she took him across her knee,
and, in the presence of the whole reg
iment, gave him a sound spanking.
Then she led him away, the boy crying
and boo-hooing at the top of his voice.
She had to wait some little time for
a chance to get away, and meantime
one of the soldiers saw the boy, who
was still crying, and asked if he was
CRYING because his mother hurt him.
"No!" he shouted. "Do you sup
pose a soldier like me would cry be-
cause he was hurt? Didn't l fight
lust as well as the best of them at the
great battle?"
eyes, Johnny, but what are you cry
ing about!"
"I'm crying because my mother
spanked me right before the whole
regimentP' :,
In spite of his protests, the boy had
to 20 home with his mother, as was
proper.

THE SoUP.-A coacbman suddenly
raised to the post of waiter at dinner
party, when a sudden resignation lad
left the place vacant within an hour
of the assembling of the guests, was
delighted. The host was delighted to
find that an old dress coat and vest
would fit the coachman, and 10 min
utes were spent in acquainting the
servant with the usage of polite socie-
ty at a dinner. Among other things,
the host told the coachman that he
was on no account to ask any of the
guests to be helped second time to
soup.
The guests took their places at the
table, and the soup was quite credit
ably served. The coachman observed
that one gentleman pushed his plate
of soup from him. The servant lean
ed over and drew the plate back again
in front of the gentleman, who in turn
pushed it from him again. This dis
pleased the coachman. He thought
he saw breach of decorum in the
action. "Ate your soup, sor ~ said he
in trumpet tones, "yez'll get no more"

NOT So VERY SLow.-Down in Ohio
the other day, not very far from Cleve'
land, I took a carryall or bus at a
country station to ride inland few
miles. The driver, who carried the
mail for Uncle Sam, was disposed to
be quite communicative.
"You don't live round here, 1 sup
pose?" he remarked, interrogatiyely
"No, not now," I replied. "1'm
from Chicago"
"Pretty big place, amt it?" he
continued.
"Yes, it's a large city," said.
"'Spose there's something goin' on
there most of the time, amt there ?''
he asked. nodded afirmatively.
"Well, we amt so darned slow down
here" he added. Had dance in the
Hinckley Ridge schoolhouse last night
and there'll be turkey rattle Tues

WHERE HEW WAS WORKING.-Thel

WHERE HE Was WoRKING.-There
is certain would-be fashionable dame
whose name is not as melodious as it
might be, and it is source of great
annoyance to her. Her husband stur-
Oily keeps to its obvious unvarnished
pronunciation, "Swett," but she pro.
nounces it "Sweet," and expects all
her acquaintances to follow suit. The
town in which their country place is
located has local wit, if he is only an
Irish working man, and as he trudged
homeward one night at 6 o'clock he
met former employer, who said:
Chow dye do, Mike? Where are
you you working now ?"
"Well, sor," says Mike, with an
Irish grin, "shure, this wake I'm work
ing for Mr.. SWEET and Mrs. Sweet!'
And before twenty-four hours the
joke was all over town.

PARTIES ARRESTED UNITE FOR DEFENSE

Forty garbage cases were set for trial yes
terday in the police court One attorney
was looking after the defense Of them all
and he stated that unless one was selected
as test case he would insist that each be
tried separately The first case was called
shortly before noon. Some of the cases in
the batch are several months old.
1t is stated that the garbage haulers of
! the city have formed a trust to fight the
monopoly held by Garbage Master Macdonald
and this explains the fact that despite their
various ages, all the cases are set for trial
on the ssme day. The arrested parties have
| formed an association, pooled issues and
raised enough funds to hire an attorney.
| The charges in the cases are various, haul
| ing garbage In the city limits, hauling with
! out permit, etc. The defendants are all
poor men who have tried to make a little
| money with which to support their families
by carrying away refuse from private prem
ises during the spring cleaning.
| Garbage Master MacDonaldAs special officers
have made but few arrests recently. This
| Is largely due to the fact that the cases
have not been brought to trial, but have
| been continued from time to time Thurs
| day, however, two arrests were made. Sam
Boye and William Thomas were captured
| while dumping refuse near Thirteenth and
|
| they had been allowed to haul the stuff
! to this point during the recent flood on Cut
| OFF island in order to help restrain the lake
and that orders have never since been served
| upon them to cease the practice. Boye was
under 16 years of age and was discharged,
| but Thomas case was put with the others
! that are to be tried
The garbage fight promises to bring some
| police officers into trouble.
Some days ago jim Nelson was arrested
| for violating the monopoly. He was taken
| to the station with his team. 1t is stated
that when he was put IN jail one of the
police officers instructed the poundmaster to
| take charge of the team, and the latter did
! SO. The team was later recovered by re-
| plevin. The attorney for the garbage haul
| ers says that If he finds these to be the
| facts in the case. he intends to prefer
| charges against the police officers before the
| Fire and Police commission, and will also
sue on the officers bond. The special Of
! fcers employed Y Macdonald have several
suits In the distfiet court on their hands
