The Passing of the Cavuse.

Fossil collections gathered ill old lake beds of eastern Oregon demonstrate that the broad plains between the Rocky and Cascade mountains were the original habitat of the prehistoric horse, a fleet little animal no larger than a fox which in the long ago scampered over the lonely land. After the lapse of ages the modern horse is now to degenerate upon the stamping ground of his ancestors The cayuse has become so valueIess by the invasion of the electirc car and the bicycle and the disappearance of the stagecOach and the wagon train that the halter has been taken from his neck and he has been turned loose to struggle with nature for his own subsistence Over this section many thousand head of wild horses now roam as untram- meIed as in prehistoric days, and during the past winter these perished in large numbers.
 1t IS case of the survival of the fit test. The cayuse, like the red man, may read his doom in the setting sun, but the well bred horse can still look civi lizatiOn in the face and demand shelter and oats i'll abundance. - Spokane Spokesman Review.

A Workman and His Work.

The wife of friend of mine is the possessor of a thin gold watch chain. It is something after the pattern of a cable. Each link is finely finished, and the workmanship is that of an artist. In examining it closely one would even think that the person who made it was in love with his work. It is mechan- ical masterpiece. My friend made it a gift to his wife about 15 years ago, and it is not only highly prized by her on that account, but also because of its de- sign and finish. A week or two ago one of the links broke.
 "I will get that fixed for you all right" said my friend. "I know just the man to take it to. He is not jew eler, but a machinist by trade, and would rather give job like this to him than to a jeweler. He has mechanical genius which runs to work of this kind.
 My friend took the chain to the gen. jus. He has a small, mean looking shop in an ancient, dilapidated building in an unlikely street down town. He examined the chain carefully and ap. peared to become reflective over it. Then his face lit up with a smile as he said:
 II remember this chain very we'll. l made it 15 years ago." - Brooklyn EaDlp

A S2o,OOO,OOO FRAUD.

Ia What the Bridal Package In the Co,,.rnment Treasury Is Declared to Be.
 CT hate to shatter pet delusion by ,iving the facts in the case" said a former clerk in the treasury department aft Washington, "but fraud ought to be exnosed regardless of consequences, and the greatest fraud I know of is the fa- nous bridal package of the treasury vaults.
 CT say famous, but it isn't famous in ooneral sense. It is famous only smono bridal couples. l don't know how if is. but every bridal couple that 20 to Washington on their wedding tour-and it seems to me that about nine-terths of the bridal couples of the .ountry go to Washington-know all about that package, and the bride can t rest until she goes through the regular routine connected with it. No visit to Washington by stranger is complete without an inspection of the treasury vaults, but if his or her visit-is a nOn- bridal one the fraud of the package isn't played.
 "I don't know who it was in the de- partment that first imposed it on a bri- dal pair, but it went, and it grows in popularity every year. When the couple enter the vault, the man ill charge, aft CT a few preliminary and perfunctory remarks, reaches up on shelf, takes down a package of notes, and tells the bride to take it in her hand, if she hasn't asked for it the very first thing. He then tells her that the package con tains S2O, 900, 900 ill treasury notes, all in denomination of $1O, 900 each. The bride is delighted, of course, and when she goes back home she talks for weeks about having held $20, ,00O, 900 in her hand all at one time. The bridegroom can't resist enjoying that same pleas ure, and he fondles the package awhile, and the pair go away blissful over the experience, while the treasury vault man losses the package back on the shelf and chuckles.
 ''Now this is all simply gigantic fraud on the young people. The treas ury at Washington does not hold that amount of money. The bulk of the gov ernment money is at the subtreasury Ill this city That bridal package is a gay deceiver. It does contain notes to the amount of $2O,OOO, 900. of the de- nomination of $1O, 900 each, but they Ire not money, because they're not signed. So instead of having held in their hands $2O, 900, 900 the happy couple have fondled simply package that repre- sented no more value than the price of the paper and the printing OH it. It may be cruel to shatter this pretty delu- sion, but my conscience forbids me to carry the burden of it's concealment any longer; hence these facts. ''-New York Sun

 sane Murderer.
CHEATED THE GALLONS AFTER ALL

Tvnboid Fever Carried or 8 Prisoner
 Who Had Undergone & Surgical Oper-
 ation So That He Might Be Hanged.
 Strange Features Of the Dreher Case.
 A surgical operation was performed ID St. Louis recently which in all probability has no equal in the history of the world It was undertaken for the purpose of cur ing man of insanity so that he might be hanged. The operation proved successful, but the man died from typhoid contracted from impure drinking water
 Charles Drehcr was sentenced to death for murdering his sweetheart. After his condemnation he became insane and could not, according Co law. suffer the death penalty.
 Three years ago Drehar shot and killed his sweetheart, Bertha Hunicke He de- veloped fit of insane jealousy for reasons that no one could ascertain. The girl was only 19. On Jan. 29 sQ4 he went to her room, upbraided her wildly and shot her dead.
 Then he turned bis revolver on himself. He fired thrac s4Ots. only one of which struck him. Tfis one lodged in his skull, entering the l1rieUal bone on the left side, just below inc uoroDal suture It was easily removed, together with 8 piece of splintered bone. Dreher recovered quickly and was placed OF trial for rhe murder.
 He seemed perfectly rational. although dull and brutal. The evidence was clear against him, and he excited little sym pathy. He was convicted and condemned to death.
 While in prison awaiting execution he began to behave strangely. His symptoms quickly developed into uHmistaka ole in sanity. Within three days of the date set for his execution be was declared absolute iy insane.
 He was sent to the insane asylum at Fulton, Mo. There his condition was or

dinarily characterized by 8 hopeless dull ness and an almost toral failure to under stand what was going on about him. At times he had brief fits of great violence.
 The physicians finally noted that these fits came on usually when be was lying down on one side of bis head or when his hat pressed on a certain part of his head.
 The old scar where the splinter of bone had been removed v-s examined and it was seen that now bono had formed and grown to an abnormal thickness. This thickening would naturally press on the brain inside the skull and was apparently the cause of Dreher's insanity.
 The asylum physicians reported to Gov ernor Stephens that Dreher would possi- ply be restored to sanity ny the operation of trephining. The governor ordered the operation to be performed.
 The trephine is aD instrument consisting of a handle and a steel cylinder ending in extremely sharp teorh and a central pin. This cylinder is made to revolve by an electric current and will cut out a circular piece of bone Gs quickly as the surgeon wishes.
 A large trephine was applied to Dreher's s thickened skull The piece removed was an inch thick and showed that an enor- nous and almost fatal pressure had been exerted on his brain.
 The surgeons stated that Dreaer's reason had returned Hc was therefore subject to his original sentence
 The surgeons notified Chief Deputy Sheriff Huebler of the success of the opera tion. Captain Huebler was to have had charge of the execution and proceeded with his preparatious for thag interesting cere- mony, but typhoid fever cheated tho gal lows of it's victim.

Horsemen Make A Fight.

The horsemen of Camden, N. J., have raised a fund and employed counsel to fight the League of American Wheelmen and cyclists in general. The cause of the trouble appears to be the new cycle path which the city recently built for the ac- CommodatiOn of whcelmen. While the city built the path, it was generally un derstoOd that the Good Roads league oi Camden would pay for it in time. A few days ago a prominent physician named Fithian drove on the path and was arrested at the instance of $. c. Ott, the president of the Good Roads league. He was fined by Mayor Westcott, but refused to pay the fine imposed and walked out of the city hall. 'Dr. Fithian said that his attorney advised him that the city had no right to keep people from driving on any portion of the public streets.

The Peacock at Home.

The real home of the peacock or pea fowl is in India. There they were and are hunted, and their flesh is used for food. As the birds live ill the same re- zion as the tiger, peacock hunting is a very dangerous sport. The long train of the peacock is not its tail, as many sup pose, but is composed of feathers which grow out just above the tail and are called the tail coverts. Peacocks have been known for many hundred years. They are mentioned in the Bible. Job mentions them, and they are mentioned, too, Tn l Kings X. Hundreds of years ago Tn Rome many thousand peacocIs were killed for the great feasts which the emperors made. The brains of the peacock were considered a great treat, and many had to be killed for a single feast St. Nicholas

A Toad as 8 Talislnan.

The Western Morning News reports 3 remarkable case of superstition. A young woman ill Penzance had suffered from fits, and she adopted remedy which would be to most people almost as repulsive as the disease itself. She procured live toad, placed it in a bag, hung it around her neck and carried it next her body. The woman was cured of her fits, but she was being medically attended at the Pensance infrmary at the same time. The woman believes, however, that this was a coincidence and that her strange talisman was the instrument of her cure.-South Wales News

ERRORS IN LIVING.
Mans Excessive Appetite and the BOdy's
 Capacity For Food.

Capacity For Food.
 To the lay mind nothing seems to au- pur SO strongly in favor of robust health as a hearty appetite. Furthermore, there would seem to be a strnug con yiction in the public mind, sanctifieC by tradition from time almost lmme- morial. that the more man eats the better he is The quantity of food that many people naturally eat is very large as compared with their actual physl- oIogical requirements. Add to this the many tempting forms i'll which food IS presented to the palate by our modern culinary arts, the sharpening of the ap- petite by the anteprandial cocktail, the stimulus afforded the appetite by bot tie of good wine, and the result is often the consumption of an amount of food that simply overwhelms the assimlla- tive organs. Such indulgence, if unre- stricted and habitual, taxes both the as- similative and the excretory organs to their highest capacity, especially when coupled with sedentary life, and, more over, it lends an additional impetus to the evils springing from the use of i'm proper quality of food.
 The human elaborating and excretory mechanism was evidently adjusted for ordinary wear and tear to an average limited period of about 70 years. Un- l der 40 per cent of extra work we must naturally expect impairment or break down of the mechanism much earlier. It should therefore excite no special surprise that so large proportion of ou1 we'll to do people die from Bright's dis ease. heart failure and allied diseases at 50 or 55 who should, and under prop erIy regulated lives and habits would, have attained the natural age of 70 or over. Paradoxical though it may seem, such people usually spring from excep- tionally healthy stock and often point with pride to the fact that their imme- diate ancestors lived to advanced ages of 80 years or more. This paradox, how ever, is more apparent than real, for in vestigation will usually reveal the fact that for the most part the parents in such cases were people of more simple habits, such as corresponded with New England life 75 or 100 years ago.
 The truth is that the we'll to do man of today lives in faster age than that of his father and grandfather. He meets with greater opportunities and possi- bilities and therefore greater stimulus to all his energies. He more easily ac- quires pecuniary resources, and in larger amounts, and therefore he pos sesses greater luxuries of domestic life. With these come greater temptations tc excess. While he has often inherited 8 splendid constitution from his ances- tors, unlike them he has run his phys ical mechanism at a breakdown rate, and it must of necessity more quickly wear out.-Charles W. Purdy, M. D. in North American Review.
