4 Kingman dispatch of the 17th inst, says: The Wallapai Indian trailers who have been on the track of Parker, the Rock Cut robber and jail breaker, returned to Kingman this morning, saying the officers have been put on the wrong track by sheep men near Williams and that they were not allowed to follow the trail they knew to be that of the outlaw. They are very much disgusted and say that were they allowed their own way they would have captured Parker before he got near Williams. A sheep herder told the officers a cock and bull story to throw them off and the scheme worked.

 The report that Black Jack had been Killed seems to be erroneous. The vic tim has now been identified as one Tom Ketchum, and Black Jack was never known to masquerade under that alias. The latest report is that Jack still retains his health and pristine vigor. Black Jack, instead of having two or three men with him, has be- tween twenty and thirty characters associated with him st his camp, at Ruch's We'll, Cochise county, who are ever ready for any deviltry which may present itself. There is a reward of s2 900 offered for the killing or capture of the noted outlaw.

Sound travels by waves radiating
from a central point of disturbances
Just as waves radiate when a stone is
dropped into still water. So far as
the hearing of each individual is con-
cerned, these waves move in a direct line
from the cause of the sound to his ear,
the impact being the greatest in the ear
nearest to the source. This being the
ease, a person who has totally lost thu
sense of hearing in one ear, although
he may imagine that the defect is of
little consequence, cannot locate the d.
rection of sound to save his life, ever
when the center of disturbance is quit"

for all ordinary purposes. The labor of
Citing these boys for their work is
enormous, and few boys are at their
2cst for choir work during more than
three or four years of their lives. The
choir schools Of London take promising
boys of eight or nine from all over Eng
land, provide them with all the ma
terial needs of life, give them an adj
mirable education in vocal music, and
employ them in public church sing. ing
for about five years. Boys in this coun
try are seldom taken as pupils in choi:
singing before they are ten years OF
age, and it usually requires two years o
hard work to fit an apt pupil for publ
-'ng;ng. Most boys have TO give up the
profession at the age oil IS, when the
change OF voice units them for furthe'
soprano singing. A few, after Il rest O
a few years, go on and develop into eX
celient men singers, but most of the
youngsters retire forever from the pro-
fcssion.

1t was Choirmaster lie Jeune, of old
st. Johns, in Narick street, that first
introduced into New York the scientific
method of training boy cho.rs. The
method was brought from Italy, ana
goes back no one knows how many
centuries in the history of the Catholic
church. That church, however, strange
" enough, has not in New York made
the training of boy choirs by this meth
cd an important adjunct TO its music.
St. Patrick's cathedral has, indeed, Il
large boy choir recruited from the
neighboring Catholic orphanage, but
the best boy choirs of the city are found
in Episcopal churches.
Old St. Johns no longer has its former
handsome appropriation for the ma n
tenance of u choir, so that the Piece-
dence in this matter has passed TO other
churches. Perhaps the best boy cho!r
is at St. Agnes chapel of Trinity par
ish. in Ninety-third street, whose CHOIR
master, Mr.. Stubs, is brotl!er-'h-la"
of the choirmaster at old st. johns.
Half a dozen other churches have nota-
BILE bow choirs, and rectors INSIST more
and more upon having this kind OF
music; but the Italian method IN us
extreme development attracted lttie
attention in New York until wlthm
the past five or six years. There are
few notable boy choirs in suburban
churches. Chicago, with her determlha-
ton to have the biggest OF everything

members, not too well trained, ;hough
the great cathedral Of st. Paul's' Lon

than the Italian. 1t is little used ~

FUTURE OF THE HORSE.
Heavily Increased Production in
tho West.
Eject on Values of the Growing Use
of TroIIeys and BicycIes-En-
cournSing Outlook for
Breeders.

The department of agriculture has
issued statistical report showing The
numbers and prices of farm animals il
the United States on January l, 1897
II is especially interesting and valuable
III regard TO the horse-brseding indus
try, which in the last few years has
taken downward course and continues
TO be much disturbed. This state of af-
fairs is usually attributed to the rapid
introduction of the trolley and the BIZ
cycle, but the figures submitted by the
department prove these TO have been
but minor causes. Most of the decline
in prices is due TO the heavily increased
production of horses on the newly
opened ranges of the west, ard the IA
cilities afforded for handling the traffic
by the transcontinental lines of rail
way. The world has never before seen
so large a region suddenly made avail
able for housekeeping. Between the
years 1889 and 1898 the number of
horses in Montana, Wyoming, Colorado,
New Mexico and further west. increased
from 1,479,76S to 1872, 632, or about one
third. The surplus was shipped to out
side markets.
In the year 1866 the average price of
horses in the United States was $59.sG.
From 1883 to 1889 the average price
ranged between $70.59 and S74.6i, the
latter price having been reached in 1854.
BY 1892 the average was $G5.O1. The
rapid decline set in after 1893, in which
year the average price was SOLE. The
figure in 1894 was $47.S3; in 1895, $500;
in 1896, S33.O7, and in the beginning of
The present year. $31.51. On western
ranges the prices are about the lowest
On record. The average price of a
horse there is but two-fifths of what it
was in 1884, and of mules less than one
half. In some parts of the range coun-
try horses are rated at So head. They
have even been given away, or shot to
save pasturage. Cheap western horses
have-reduced breeding in the east and
south, and it is we'll known that their
quality is inferior to that of the horses
displaced
Az to its future the department of
agriculture takes an encouraging view,
and gives the reasons for 1t. Since 1915
the number of horses in the western di-
vision has declined from 1.G72.523 to
1.G2e, 402, or nearly IS per cent. Our
foreign exports of horses lave grown
from 5000 a year prior to 1893 to $4,000
in 1896. The horse has lost much Of its
value as product in western breeding
areas, and they will be devoted to in
Gustries that will pay better. An i'm
proving demand is reported for the bet
Ter class of horses, especially young
'nes, for draft and driving purposes.
The. department expresses the belief
that 1.-The depression in the horse mar
Let has already passed its lowest
roint." Probably there is no direction
in which the breeder can look for bet
ter prices more hopefully than in that
of good quality. AT all events, the mar
ket for cheap horses of poor quality is
greatly overstocked.-St. Louis Globe

OF the Age.
For period of nearly 80 years Millais
has been before the public as an artist
and for the greater part OF that time
he has sustained his reputation as the
greatest painter of his day, says Serb
ner's He has painted history, romance,
poetry, landscape, portraits and has
made his mark in all,
No one else has attempted so wide
range of subjects, few have shown
greater variety of invention or APP
preached him in his command over
tools and materials. 1t is only within
the last few years that he has shown
any decline of power and it was only
the other day that Mr.. Watts, his great
colleague, observed to me of one of
his pictures in the present exhibition
of the Royal academy GS96) that as
painting it was good as ever"
His art is in no sense ideal; his
Imagination cannot body forth things
unknown or rise to any great heroic
height; he has never attempted to repre-
sent rapid or violent action, but inside
these lines his powers are splendid and
exuberant.
An almost matchless draughtsman,
colorist of great truth and force,
painter of extraordinary initiative pow
er, with handling not always pleasant,
perhaps, but of the utmost sureness
and freedom, he has left a body of work
which both for quality and quantity
has scarcely been equaled in modern art
Indeed, the whole Of his work has been
SO sincere and full Of fresh life, it re-
fleets so forcibly his own personality
and the living spirit Of his day, that it
is difficult to believe that it can ever be-
come undressing to posterity.
