 4 Boston jeweler who has talent for advertising as well as 0 genius for mechanics has been reminding his pa. irons lately that watch Is the small. est, most delicate machine that was ever constructed of the same number of parts About 175 different pieces of ma- terial enter into it's construction and l upward of 2,400 separate operations are comprised ill it's manufacture.
 Some of the facts connected with it's performance are simply incredible, when considered in total. A blacksmith strikes several thousand blows on his anvil in day and is right glad when Sunday comes around, but the roller jewel of Q watch makes every day and day after day 492, GOO impacts against the fork, or 157, 680, 900 blows in a year without stop or rest, or 3,153, 600. GOO in the short space of 20 years
 These figures are beyond the grasp of our feeble intellects, but the marvel does not stop here. It has been estimat- cd that the power that moves the watch is equivalent to only four times the force used in a fiea's jump; consequent. ly it might be called four flea power. One horsepower would suffice to run 1 gro, 900, 900 watches.

Electric Railway.

The City Council did a good nights work last night when it passed the ordinance granting the franchise for street railway and new electric light plant. The alder men worked faithfully from 8 o'clock D. m. to 1 o'clock in the morning The ordinance was considered sec tion by section and amended to suit the ideas of the councilmen and then adopted as a whole. 1t was considered carefully and hedged about with every safeguard to the public interest. 1t was also made definite in it's provisions so there can be no misunderstanding be- tween the city and the corporation in the future. The charter grants franchise for the period of fifty years; active work on the new plant must be begun within period of four months, and the plant must be finished and in operation within a period of one year, the company is allowed to use any street within the city, with the consent and approval of the council, except Fifth avenue, which is expressly excepted from the provisions of the charter, the street railway company must pay a privilege tax of ten dollars per an nun upon each of it's cars and also a special tax of fifty cents on each of it's electric light poles; the city is to grant @ contract of ten years for lighting the city and is to pay a minimum monthly aggregate Of $500 for the same; the electric streetrail- way is to keep the streets between the ends of it's ties in good repar and in the case of paving districts to pave the same in the same kind of material as the adjoining pave. liCHt, 6tC.

This leads us to enquire, if there is a breed of coachers in the world, of the proper size, color, action and con- formation, which have been bred long enough and pure enough to transmit to it's progeny it's good qualities? I answer yes, they can be found, with the quality of the thoroughbred, weighing from 1.4OO to 1,7OO pounds, bred in their purity for hundreds of years, without admixture of foreign blood.
 I have seen this progeny, from west ern mares weighing 800 pounds, from Texas mares weighing 1000 pounds, from the half blood Clyde half blood French draft, and in fact from all kinds of American mares, and have never known a sire of the breed in mind, whose prepotency did not en- able him to reproduce himself, thus proving that we can raise horses uni form in color, type and conformation and easily matched for carriage teams. 70.

oughbred is not his only qualifications worthy of appreciation. His perfect conformation and development chal- 1enges our admiration, and his intelli- gence, grace and beauty entitle him to the plaudits he receives. He is most admirable, however, when in con- junction with his other qualities his prepotency as a sire is considered. It is to the thoroughbred we are indebted for the quality possessed by every but with all his good points he will not do for the carriage nor the armies of America and Europe.
 His energy has never been ques- toned, but his size, his nervous tenn perament and lack of required strength renders him unfit for the army and the carriage.
 I, therefore, say he is not a profit able horse for the average farmer or ranch man to raise in this country, and should only be regarded by them as sire, suitable for propagation un- der certain conditions.
 The speed of the thoroughbred dis tinguishes him as luxury and pleas i ure, but men with small bank ac- counts cannot indulge in all that prom ises amusement.
 What I have said of the thorough bred, in part, applies to the standard bred. None will dispute that the greatest value of the standard bred is in his speed. To develop this not only requires a man who knows his busi- ness, but one who has money to spend as well. That it is pleasure to raise and train trotters will be conceded ! but that it has proven improbable te

ing to produce racer? They should expect nothing but failure, and if they do, certainly they will not be disap- pointed.
 Having mentioned what in my judg- ment the ordinary breeder, whose chief aim is profit, should not raise, it is but fair that I express my opinion as to what kind of horse he will find it most to his interest to produce.
 A draft horse, if good enough, will bring good price in any market, but to have the proper size the dam must be large, and possessed of heavy bone. Those who have such mares should ouly attempt to raise first class draft horses from them. But by far the largest per cent of mares in this coun- try are smaller than is required to raise what would today be considered first class draft horses.
 would suggest another course be pursued by owners of lighter mares. I would breed for large, high acting carriage horses, using as a sire the best full blooded coach horse to be found. Here is where the standard mare, that has size and proper confor- nation, can be most profitably used, and in making this statement I speak from experience.
 That we'll matched, high acting car riage teams are the most ready sellers we have in this country and Europe, cannot be denied. The demand has always been in excess of the supply. If the horse we raise should not be suitable for the carriage, because of lack of style and action, he will make a good cavalry horse, and readily sell in the European markets.
Arizona republican., 1898-02-13

most persons who have tried it can- not be denied.
 The reasons for this must be obvi- ous to every thoughtful man, since rals- ing any class of horses for speed is most speculative There is no system of breeding which will, with even req sonable certainty, produce the speed now necessary to make an animal really valuable.
 Recall to mind those who have bred the standard horse, and from the hun- dreds raised count the few that have acquired fame as racers and sold for enough to balance the deficit charged to others that had no speed or were crippled in training
 This brings us to consider the value of the standard bred, if not speedy. As a rule they do not command at tentlon, as many qualities have been sacrificed to speed. There are, of course, exceptions to the rule, and l have seen them sell for good prices, but never unless of good size and fine appearance. There are comparatively few large, handsome, standard bred horses, because these qualities have 1 gradually given way as speed has by degrees been developed.
 Do not understand me as condemn ing the standard horse, for those who think 1t profitable to raise light driv- CTS. l have only considered him from the standpoint of the ordinary breed CT. If experienced breeders fail in the raising of standard bred horses, how much more marked will the failure of
 the inexperienced be, who use the standard sire, upon the ordinary plugs
 and mongrels of the country, expect
