THE DRAFT HORSE.

Within the next three or four years
it is probable that two-thirds of the
draft horses now doing the work of
the country will be expended in the
service" and will have to be replaced.
There is a great deal of talk about the
progress of invention displacing the
horse, but no trolley or bicycle has yet
been discovered that will do the work
of the draft horse. 1t is a class Of
horses, too, that has become notably
scarce in the country. There are very
few of them coming on. With a re-
vival of business, those city firms
which take pride in having their vans,

SCARED BY WAR.
A Boy Solves Mystery at the City
of Washington.

Washington, June 9.-RumOrs of war
are sometimes as terrifying as war itself
and stories of the operations of spies do
not have a reassuring effect upon ner-
yous people. There are doubtless, no
more spies in Washington than elsewhere
but the spy-story field has been worked
here almost to the limit, plenty of people
believing the most eXtravagant lie that
fancy can devise. AS a result. to act
out of the ordinary or bear the slightest
resemblance to a Spanish is enough to
throw one under suspicion, sometimes
with amusing results.
One night last week about midnight
we'll dressed man alighted from a Four
tenth street car, leaving on the seat a
package about six inches long and an
inch and a half in diameter. The conduc-
tor was posted on the spy question and
opened it with trembling hands. 1t con-
tanned a tin box, which in turn disclosed
two sticks of dynamite. He showed them
to the motorman, whose superior know
ledge led him to suggest that they were
arranged to be exploded by means of
electric wires. Whereupon the two near
ly expired with fright.
After hurried consultation they de-
cided to go toward the city. Very slow
ly the motorman applied the current.
fearing every instant that the dynamite
might explode, while. to prevent all pos
sible Earring and reduce the danger to a
minimum, the conductor stood holding
the deadly box. At Ninth Street and
Pennsylvania avenue the conductor pass
ed his awful burden and the story con-
nected with it into the custody of a po-
lice officer, who at once abandoned his
beat and fastened to the police station.
The sergeant duty had read
how Spanish spies blow up powder mills,
and handled the death-dea1ing box quite
gingerly, passing it, after an inspection
as hurried as his dignity would permit.
to the night clerk, who watched it until
morning, when not engaged in wiping
cold, clammy sweat from his bdow
The next day it was taken to the navy
yard, where an expert classed it as
something new In the Internal machine
line though doubtless none the less dam
gerous for that reason. He carried it to
secluded spot, made an electric con-
nection and pressed the BUTTON, while
all present held their breath and ears.
No explosion followed and the current
was turned on again, with more care this
time, but without results. At the second
failure messenger boy looked over the
shoulder of the serious-faced expert and
cried:
Jaw, g'way; I know wot dat is. It's
one of dose things they puts in de glims

Don't Stop to Hug IA Blunder.

Blunders that have hindered US may
prove helps to our progress, if they are
used Alright. By disclosing to US our
weakness and our dangers, they may in
cite us to better and wiser endeavors in
the future. But, if we are to gain throug h
our losses, we must look forward and
not backward.
AS soon as we see where we have been
at fault in any particular, we must turn
away from that error, without stopping
to worry over it, and must press on the
more earnestly because of our lost time.
Not till we reach the end OF our life
course, will it do for US to sit down and
grieve that we have made so little prog
ress. AS long as there is any portion of
the course to be traversed, our business
is to be traversing it.
