Thin Horses.-A large percentage Of
the horses marketed would sell better.
if they had a little more flesh. A thin.
horse is not attractive to the average
buyer, who wants a horse that he can
put to work at once, and of which he
will. not be ashamed. A few specu-
lators. who can, see the outcome Of a
horse when there is nothing especially
wrong with him except his leanness
can afford to buy and condition him.
but the majority of buyers will pass
the thin horse by for the feshy one.
even if the former is really the better
animal. If a horse is to be sold, sell
him in good flesh. Nothing will pay
better for the extra oats and corn

LEVI REFOWICH,
Il was In His Line.

The dramatic critic Of The Daily Bread,
a gentleman Of a serious and intellectual
cast Of countonance, with rooms on the
second floor Of an elegant and commodious
fiat in a n~eighborhood of high respectable
ity, heard a loud noise in the hall below
and stepped to the door to investigate.
Three or four men in working garb had
unloaded a piano and were preparing to
take it up tho stairway.
ITS for somebody on the floor above, "
he said to himself as he went bach to his
study. And it's a good piano. 1 saw the
name Of the maker on the box. If the per.
son who is going to evolve harmony from
It in the room overheard"-and he shud.
derod slightly-"doesn make good music
It won't be the fault of the instrument"
Half an hour later, while deeply en-.
gagged in writing an elaborate criticism on
the German opera that had been performed
the evening before, he heard a knock at
tho door, followed by this conversation:
"'1NJe man at lives here Is in the music
business, amt he?"
"Why, yes, in n sense he may be said
to be engaged in-in the'-
That's wat 1 told 'em. Say, we've

POLITICAL TALK.

The dissatisfaction in the Democratic ranks,
occasioned by the result Of the conforrees'
convention, is increasing.
The Citizens candidates will meet in the
Republican Club rooms, Titman building,
this evening.
The primaries Of the Citizens party will be
held tomorrow between the hours of 4 and g
p. M.
The candidates for Chief Burgess are maxi
ing a friendly, but spirited contest for the
nomination. The will Of the people will be
accepted by all in the proper spirit.
1t is currently reported that Congressman
G.. n. Brumm will be a candidate for Judge
this fall, and that Senator John j. Coyle is
aspiring to succeed the present Congressman.
The fact that School Directors David Nor
gan and John T. Lee have no opposition for
denomination is highly complimentary to
these gentlemen.
The Citizens party Of Shenandoah was the
first to adopt the Crawford county system of
voting at primary elections in this county.
Now there are quite a number Of towns that
have followed our example. There are, how
ever, several of the large towns that hang ON
10 the antiquated and unsatisfactory con-
ferree system.
Apparently Senator Losch is a firm be-
lever in the principle that there are two
many elective offices. He has introduced =
bill abolishing the Office Of Poor Director,
and the election Of Warden of the prison by
popular choice. A friend at our elbow is of
the opinion that there is a vein Of sarcasm
apparent in the latest move Of the Schuylkill
Haven statesman.
There should be a large vote at the pri-
maries tomorrow. Every citizen should
take sufficient interest iu the borough's well
fare to attend tho primaries and assist in the
selection of those best qualified for the several
positions to be filed.
But one of the minority members of the
school Board asked for denomination, and he
was completely snowe under at the Demo-
cratic primaries.
A lively contest is on in the Third and
Fifth wards.
So far as the local Democracy is concerned,
the German voters Of that party must con-
tent themselves with sucking their
thumbs" They are not allowed one Office,
at the dictation of the party leaders.
The Democratic committee in the Third
ward has 50 far made an unsuccessful hunt
for candidates who are disposed to go on the
ticket.
Senator Penrose will resign his seat to-
morrow as \ member of tho Pennsylvania
State Senate, in order that his successor may
be elected at the February election. Israel
w. Durham, tho Quay leader, is to succeed
penrOse.

Refrigerator Robbed.

The refrigerator of the Hotel Franey is
kept in a corridor at the rear of the main
building and within easy reach Of the
kitchen. The receptacle is almost always
filled with dOlicacies and its location forms a
great temptation to the urchins who reside
and play in the vicinity Of the hotel. While
Clerk Metz was at his breakfast this morn
ing, one Of the dining room girls hurried in
to tell him that a crowd Of boys had stormed
the refrigerator. Nets made q prompt and
vigorous dash, but only arrived in time to see
the boys disappearing around the corner of
the hotel building with roast chicken, chunks
Of prime beef and other contents Of the
larder under their arms. There was a short,
but Intellectual chase. Boys have loitered By
scores about the hotel, with yearning eyes
turned upon the refrigerator, but the raid this
morning was the first successful one.
