Olney as a Pedestrian.

Secretary Olney takes long walk every
day and always moves at rate that con-
stantly threatens to turn into run,
though it never does so except occasion
ally. when he darts i'll front of rapidly
moving streetcar. These walks begin
about o'clock in the afternoon. when the
Secretary emerges from the State Depart
ment building, passing up Executive to
Pennsylvania avenue and then, turning
10 the right. starts for the Peace Monu-
ment, az the foot OF Capitol Hill. He is
invariably dressed for these excursions in
short boxcoat with trousers to match
and a derby hat. Now and then, but
rarely, he wears light fall overcoat; usu-
ally he prefers to trust for warmth to the
energy of his motion. The Secretary
often invites friend to accompany him
on these trips, but he rarely gets an ac-
ceptance twice from the same man, for
the tastes of department officials and Dip
lomats do not usually lie in the direction
of violent exercise.-New York Times.
The Russians have a simple device
which is said to be very effective in check
ing runaway horses A thin cord with q
running moose around the neck of the
horse is used, aud when the animal bolts
the cord is pulled. The horse stors as
soon as it feels the pressure on the wind
pipe.
