CLOVER Hay FOR HORSES.

There $. ems to be great prejudice
in the minds Of the public against
clover hay for road or driving horses
That this is common, especially so in
cities, IS fully proven by the greater
demand fo" timothy hay, and its very
much higher p'ice tv,r cover.
Chem:c Il ana ysis shoAs, Wits J. S.
Woodward, an exec lltnt authority, in
the Prairie Farmer, that clover has
by far the greater feeding value
especially IN those elements necessary
for the fa>t-driving read horse, and
the experience of every one who las
sensibly experimental in the matter
fully substantiates the Gains of
chemistry. The facts are that clover
hay is much better for all hay eating
animals, and that they CAL do more
work and drive father on the ssme
weight. The t., u'!e is it is to, 90, d
it is so much more la'atable 10 the
horse that If his rack be stuffed, so he
can cat his fill, he will gorge himself
so as to be rendered urtit fer fast
driving. 1t is Ike filling boy with
some dainty of " Which he is very fond
and then putting Lin to had work or
close thinking, or like turning lot
Of hungry COWS into ii fresh clover
pasture, from which tLey are Sure to
be troubled with hoven not because
the food is unwholesome, but so good
that they eat so rapidly as to r,t'rd
digestion. With managers filled ever
so full of timothy, especially as usual
" cut, much over-ripe, the horse will
not cat too much. There is nothing
to tempt his appetite. To feed clover
hay to road Or driving horse the
feeder should use his judgment and
give just what the horse needs and no
more. Let it be eaten ever so quickly
the horse should have no more until
the next feeding time. The feeders
brains and not the ,rse's belly should
be the judge as to what he should re-
ceive. There is Il much digestible,
muscle uppo, ting f,oI in one pound
of clover hay us in two and one-h'li
times as much timothy, and as much
carhohy drates, weight for weight, and
so per cent, more fat or food f energy.
Early cut, bright, well-curv,d clover
hay and cats make an ideal food for
a driving horse, fed in proper quantity.
Then. if the owner wants to amuse: his
horse between meals, fill bis manger
with any kind of straw: but if the
straw is bright and has been we'll
housed he will eat too much for his
own good in fast driving. For a grow
irg colt there is no feed so good as
clover hay and wheat bran.

The Importance of the part played by
dominant authorizations in the history of
the world can scarcely be overrated. Jul

ties, Luther Ignatius Loyola, are but a
few of the great men, whose lives were
intimately entwined with ruling decisions.
In these cases the Illusions seem 10 have
been persistent, and not TO have been pro
duced by any voluntary effort on the part
of the seer. On the other hand, Talma

saring at the brilliant and applaudint au-
dience for few seconds, would see moth

economical way of hiring a subject by the

in these days of highly feed models. The
CHASTITY case described by Sir Walter
Scott, of the man who knew that he was
dying. and knew equally we'll that there

him, is, perhaps, too familiar to need more

The Book of Ecclesiastes" was the sub
iect of the Rev. DIR. Lyman Abbott's lee
ture in Plymouth church last night. He
pronounced it the most singular and diff
fcult to be understood of all the books in
the Old Testament. Biblical scholars, he
said, differed widely as to the writer, the
date, and the object of the book
As an Illustration of this DR.. Abbott
read a summary of these varied opinions.
DIR. Abbott disoWned all originality in this
as well as other lectures on the 'Litera-
ture of the Bible" He had simply, he
said gathered the views of noted schol-
ars and presented them in his own way.
1t was fully settled, Dr. Abbott declared,
that Ecclesiastes had not been written by
Solomon, but belonged to later and
more corrupt age. The fact that the first
verse makes a statement to the contrary
does not disproVe this.
1T is usual DR.. Abbott said, for
poets in all ages to assume the name of
some great author. In this book poet
mon as the ideal for a pOrtraiture of life,
From this ideal character the poet draws
his sentiments. He imagines Solomon
musing over the problems of life. The
book Is deliberately confused"
After reading extensively from Eccles-
tastes and commenting on the passages,
DIR. Abbott SAID
IT do not know what a man can make
out of this book who believes in verbal
vine truth Be not righteous overmuch?
The truth of Eeclesiastes is the truth OF
Roman experience, larger and deeper than
the truth of verbal inspiration.

THE LONGEST REGULAR run.
The Cornwall Express Travels From
London TO Exeter, 104 Miles, With
out q stOp.

The Cornwall Express Travels From
London to Exeter, 104 Miles, With
out a stop.
From the New York Herald.N
The longest regular daily run made with
out stop by any railway train in the
world has just been placed on the sche-
dule of the Great Western railway of En-
gland.
1t is made between Paddington station
in London and Exeter a distance of 1874
miles. in three hours and thirty-six min
utes, by what is known as the Cornwall
express. 1t is remarkable not so much
owing to the time, as for the fact that
not stop Is made from one end of the
run to the other. There have been longer
runs made without a stop, but they have
been made by special and not regular
trains The average speed attained by
the Cornwall express when making this
run Is SIT miles an hour. although, owing
to peculiar construction of the road at
Bristol, us miles from London, the train
Is Obliged to slow down to a speed of ten
miles an hour.
This express train is composed of eix
long coaches, a tender and engine An
American would call II a vestibule train
but the English prefer to call the ears
boyle being term applied to the trucks.
Ihey are tully as heavy as an ordinary
drawing-room car, each one weighing
about 1900 pounds, while the train with
out the engine and tender, weighs 40
tons. The weight of the engine and ten
der Is eighty-one tons, making the total
weight Of the train as II rushes along on
its long run 22l tons.
During the run AZ is necessary to take
water for the engine twice. This, how
ever. does not necessitate any stop as
IL Is taken up from a trench beside the
track as the train speeds along at nearly
a mile a minute.
The engine which draws this essentially
Through train" is a curious looking, pom
derous affair, quite unlike any locomotive
seen on American roads. II has on either
side single huge driving wheel seven
feet eight inches In diameter while what
must, by comparison, be termed the small
wheels OF the engine, six In number
known as trailers, are four feet six inches
IN diameter.
The water tank OF the engine holds 80 900
gallons, and when running at fun speed
there Is steam pressure of loo pounds 10
the square inch. while there is a heating
surface OF 1861 square feet.
Each day the train Is made, the train
leaving Paddington station at 1925 o'clock
in the morning and Il never fails to roll
into st. Davids station, In Exeter, exact
~ on time. The time allowed by the
schedule for this run makes no allowance
for delays Of any kind. Even the time
lost In going over the loop around Bristol
and the necessity of slowing down VIII an
going through Bath is not allowed for.
