About Ponies.

The Shetland ponies are not so oom-
mon. it seems to me. as they used to be
in the States. Perhaps this is because
the Canadian ponies are so cheap and
are brought here in great numbers
The best place to see the Shetland pony
is on his own native ground. As one
sees them there, coming into town on
market days. they are so we'll broken
that no bride is needed, and string
around the neck serves the purpose of a
rein. Upon their backs they have pack
saddles, which are often so we'll filled
with peat and grass that the load seems
too big and heavy for the little fellows.
In Iceland there are plenty Of ponies
They have fourished there for many
generations and form a special breed.
They are used for many kinds Of work.
and, being strong and hardy, they are
very serviceable to the inhabitants Of
the island. The country is rough and
hilly, but the ponies are cure footed and
have great endurance.
The island of Oesel, one Of the lar
gest in the Baltic sea, has its own special
breed of ponies; tough, sturdy little fell
lows they are and highly priced for
their beauty and other more valuable
qualities. Animal Friends.

Colorado" continued the superin-
tendent, sis peculiarly adapted for the
propagation Of trout, although not for
many other species Of the finny tribe.
Moreover, the red speckled or what you
might call the eastern trout will thrive
perhaps better in Colorado than in its
native streams. I fished at Bailey Sta.
tion, this state, in 1879, and took from
the streams there 332 black speckled
beauties in one day. That gave me an
idea Of what the streams were capable.
POSSIBLY you do not know it, but
Leadville's trout hatchery is the largest
in point of production of any in the
United States. It is propagating mil
lions of the species, and the fry, when
turned int the creeks, multiply in a
surprising manner. Aside from the big
rainbow trout, Colorado is going to be
the spot ideal in America for sport Of
this character. When you advertise
your gold mines, tell also of your trout

Gladstone was probably the best
talker of his time His astonishing vi
vacity made him one of the most lively
and interesting Of companions, although
sometimes his faculty for being inter-
ested in anything disappointed those
who met at his table, for his mind was
very eager and centered itself upon the
most trivial as upon the gravest object
Of human interest.
At breakfast at Downing street some
years ago M. Chevallier, the French
economist, with M de Laveleye and
others, was invited to meet Mr.. Glad
stone and Mr.. Bright. The conversa-
tion, by some unlucky twist, happened
to turn upon chiropody. Mr.. Bright is
said to have started It by remarkin2
that the charges of chiropodists were
excessive. Mr.. Gladstone accordingly
Joined in, and to the utter bewilder-
ment Of the foreign guests the whole Of
the conversation at that breakfast was
devoted 20 vehement discussion on the
extraction of corns and the prices
charged for the operation.
M. Chevallier pricked up his ears
when he first heard "corns," thinking
he was about to hear some reflections as
to the effect of the corn laws on agri-
culture, but the hope vanished as soon
as it was raised chiropody, and chiropo-
dy alone, reigned supreme. The distin-
guished guests left, greatly marveling
at the kind of conversation to which
they had been invited. On another oc
- =
departure for Egypt, Mr.. Gladstone
mortified his guests, who included Lord
Wellesley, by talking obstinately about
nothing but the best binding for books.

Mock Eunerala.

Speaking of the mock funerals that
used to be so common, especially in the
south, writer in an Alexandria (Va.)
paper says: AFTER the death Of Presi-
dent William H. Harrison in 1841 there
were mock funerals held, l think, gen.
orally over the country, by way Of CIV
ing expression to the nations loss and
his personal worth. ! remember dis
tinctly there gathered upon the square
in Charlottesville a band of music, q
hearse with empty coffin, pallbearers,
ministers of all denominations, military
and Masonic orders, students and pro-
fessors from the university and large
concourse of citizens and that there was
formed thence line that marched to
an open grave in cemetery near the
town. The Rev. Richard K. Meade Of
Christ church, after the coffin was low
cred into the grave, read the committal
portion of the burial service Of the
church, the soldiers fred volley, and
the Masons closed the scene with oere-
monies usual on such occasions.

Finding a Grave With an Egg.

The Miau-tsze, a little known tribe
in Asia, are very superstitious about
death and will not bury a man until
they have first tested the ground with
an egg.
This operation is very curious While
the body is being prepared for burial a
number of Miau-tsze, including the
male relatives Of the deceased, 60 out
to the appointed spot, bearing q large
basket Of eggs.
STOPPING down, one Of the natives let's
an egg drop softly on the ground. If it
breaks, it is considered an ill omen, and
another spot is selected In this way the
party often wander about for hours,
breaking eggs over the ground until
they finally strike place where the
hell does not crack.

SHIPS AT SEA.

Oh, many ships have at sea

That dance and sparkle in the light;
A vision fair my fond heart Graves
Alas, NO sell is yet in sightl
Outlines ind upon the sand
broken plank, a shattered spar.
A bent and rusty iron band
Oh. voiceless tale of wrecks ATARI
Then anxious fears crowd in my breast
And veil the sunshine in the sky.
Shall thus my good ships end their questi
Shall this their fate be by and byf
o friends with ships far out at sea.
That sailed away so long ago,
Some day they're coming back to thee,
But when and how we may not knowi
Perchance. with sails all rent and soiled.
Battered and bruised thy ships may be;
OF beauty and grace they may be despoiled;
Heavy and slow they may come to thee.
But come they morning, noon or night.
With flying colors or broken mast,
Our hearts will cry with thrill of delight,
"Thank God that our ships have come in q
