honor to the sheriff of Luzerne. ;"
This is the official who led the
massacre of about twenty coal

DR.. Williams says of the range
horse of the west "No horse in
the world excels the range horse
of our western states for military
purposes, and l think the recent
trip of twenty>four hundred miles
by two cowboys with no other feed
but grass and water for their horses
in ninety days proves my assertion.
1 can say without fear of contra
diction that no other horse in the
world could have made the trip
under those conditio One of tn e
important features possessed by
the range horse is small, nard
hoofs which will stand the wear of
paved streets or rough conntry.
The range horse is more intelligent
ambitious, tractable and enduring
than those grown by breeders uand
farmers in the middle aud eastern
states. In 1893 only five hundred
horses were sold in Chicago tor
export. This year the number viii
exceed fifteen thousand or thirty
per cent Of the number disposed OF
in this market. l believe the per
formance of these men viii stimu-
