The Tired French

Psychologists have been investigating
the nature of tho poison which is Cngen-
dcred by fatigue. If tho blood of ia.
tigucd animal no injected into another
animal that is fresh and unfatigued, all
tho phenomena Of fatigue will DO produc.
ed. The poison which Is produces! by IA
tiguo is of tho same nature rs that into
which tho Indians used to dip their ur.
rows, and u most deadly poison it is found
to be. In case 1t Is created E!ore rapidly
than can be carried OF by the blood, the
organism suffers seriously.

A NailIcss Horsesh oc,

One of tho NEST recent novelties, which
will, VIC think, DO welcomed as boon to
horse keepers rs we'll as tho animals I'M
der their charge, is shoe patented by Mr..
R. McDougull Of Wellington street, Glas-
gov, which can be affixed to the hoof
without nails. Tic new shoe takes tho
familiar form, but has two projections
one on each side at tho back, which en-
gage rings at tic ends Of . band which
passes over tho front OF tho hoof and is
fastened in tho middle by screw attach
ncnt to the center CT tho shoo. The en-
tire arrangement Is simple, and tho limo
walton means that whom horse casts u
shoe it will not be necessary any longer to
seek tho aid of q farricr, for no new shoe
can easily be fitted in few minutes by al
inexperienced hand.
In n recent trial Of the naillcss horse
shoe tho new invocation was put to u Sc
vcro test, tho horse on which tho shoes
were fitted being attached to heavy laden
van and worked up and down steep gridi-
cnts and on granite paved streets Not
outstanding this rough work tho shoes
showed no sign of shifting and were not
removed until worn out. The now shoe
obviates all risk Of pricking or tanning by
nails, and slight rasping Of tie Eoof is
all that is required in attaching it to its

 My curiosity was somewhat aroused, and I afterward watched the men placing the mines with a good deal of interest. They were cylindIical looking affairs, about eighteen inches long and about six inches around.
 1.-TWO wires were attached to each mine, one being taken. to one bank and one to the other, where they were at tached to electric batteries and ready to be fired at the will of the officers who had charge of them.
 'When Weyler says there are no mines at the bottom of Havana harbor. he is lying, and he knows it,for he was in charge of the Spanish affairs on the island at the time, and must have known at least as much about the ex- istence of the mines as I do, and positively know they were placed there for I saw them"

HUGE CATTLE DEAL,
Ryan Bros. Sell Their Montana Herd
 for S30 Per Head.

Kansas City, March 1S.-Mat Mur- phy of St. Paul, manager of the big Murphy Cattle company of Montana, closed deal today at the Midland hotel by which he purchased the entire herd of Ryan Bros. on their ranch in eastern Montana, paying for the herd S30 per head. There are between 12,000 and 15,000 head of stock on the ranch and they are to be delivered just as rapidly as they can be rounded up and transferred
 The Ryan herd is the property of Jepp and B. B. Ryan of Leavenworth, who have been in the livestock busi- ness in the far north for several years and have made a decided hit in the business. The negotiations for the transfer have been in progress for some weeks, and when the parties with their attorney met here this morning it required but little time to complete the sale.
 "The stockmen have been very for tunate during the winter just clos ing said MT. Murphy. "The mild weather and the open winter have made it possible for the stock on the ranches to get through in fine shape, and there have been only the most trivial losses from the herds. The se- verity of the winter often makes our losses heavy and we count ourselves fortunate when we get through as we have this year. With the scarcity of stock all over the country the stock men have fine show to hit good market and make some money"

MASON CHALLENGED.
Spanish Editor Who Says He Seeds
 Like Woman"

Washington, March IA. - Senator Mason today received the challenge sent him by the editor of the Spanish illustrated paper, Fl Cardo. The docu- ment is printed and is signed by the editor, the Marquis de Alta Villa. The challenge is to a combat at swords point and is preceded by a short col umn of personal abuse in which Mr. Mason is described as "an ignoble Yankee senator who scolds like a wo- man, and who has not the valor to fight like man, and who would take a slap in the face without resenting it.''
 The American people are referred to as "a people who deal in pigs, and whose flag is the almighty dollar"
 The senator received the challenge in a jocose spirit. He says he will have to see the marquis before he de- cides whether he will accept, but that it scarcely accords with Spanish mod esty for the challenging party to name the weapons, as is done in this iD stance

What the Cuban Rebellion Has
 Already Cost Spain.
SEVENTY THOUSAND DEAD
Estimate From Reliable Sour
 ces of Spain'S Strength
The Proposed Division of Cuba the Insurgents Retaining What They Have Won and Spain What She Has Successfully Defended.

Washington, March IS. - Seventy ish soldiers who have been killed, wounded and otherwise incapacitated for duty during the present war in Cuba. These figures have been re- ceived in this city recently from re- liable sources, and are said to be as nearly authentic as it is possible to obtain them without recourse to the records kept by the Spanish govern ment
 From this same source considerable other information bearing on the mil itary strength of Spain and her de- pendencies is obtained. The present force of Spain in Cuba is as follows: Regulars, 135,O00 n.en. Of this num- are effective for military purposes. The strength of the Spanish army at home and including her nearby pos sessions, is 100000, which in times of demand for additional soldiers may be increased as follows: First re- serve, 50,OOO; second reserve, 160,O00 men, all of whom are instructed in military tactics, and second reserve, not instructed. S0,00O men. In all there is a total of 610,000 men.
 Since these figures were received here, recent drafts of 15,O00 men to strengthen the army in Cuba leave only S5,0OO men of the Spanish regular army now in the peninsula, the Ba- learic islands, the Spanish possessions in North Africa, and the Canary is lands. In the Philippine islands Spain has an army of 32,0OO men, which h. cludes about 15,0O0 native troops. In Porto Rico there are 5000 Spanish troops, which in the event of hostili- ties could be supplemented by 4,000 volunteers.
