In the Italian army horses are taught
to do some wonderful things. There
are many mountains in Italy, and the
soldiers have to ride over some very
rough country, so they train their
strong. wise horses TO climb over steep
gravel banks. making them go up and
down sleeper places every time until
at last the horse will put its fore feet
over high bank that is almost straight
up, sit down upon his launches and
slide down, giving a mighty leap, when
near the bottom, that lands him square
on his feet.-N. Y. World

was a wise Youth.

Two young men were riding home in
an East end ear. and as they happened
to get in the vehicle at the square they
secured seats. The car loaded up very
rapidly and at Broad street the aisle
was beginning to fill. At the Sheriff
street crosswalk a girl came aboard,
and her presence near his elbow made
the young man in the end seat little
nervous. He knew he ought to rise and
give up the seat. but he hated to stand.
The other young man saw his dilem-
ma and whispered in his ear: Don't
look around-it's only the girl who
waits on our table at the restaurant"
"Eh." said his companion. THAT
girl? Wen, say, ! guess / know my
business"
And he got up quickly and with a
smile and bow waved the young woman
into the vacant place.
If he doesn't get the juciest segment
of the next strawberry shortcake it
probably won't be either his or the
girls fault.-Cieveland Plain Dealer.

HARVEST APPLES.

Out in the orchard, years ago.
There lived an ancient harvest tree,
And golden apples used to grow
To yellow ripeness there for me-
The tree was low, it's dropping limbs
Hung like an arbor's draperies,
And green leaves, grooming balmy hymns
Lured TO its depths Of shady ease
In May the ancient tree was white
With tender blooms, and sight and sense
Drunk deep of promise of delight
In summers juicy opulence.
And as the lolltng days grew warm,
The young fruit of seductive green
Found refuge in my grateful form,
And worked there deadly and unseen.
But all the trials were forgot,
When. bursting fun of lusciousness,
The golden apples came, with not
The faintest menace OF distress.
The hornets throrged their broken parts,
The bluejays pecked them on the tree.
But in each apples heart of hearts
A "honey-core" remained for me.

Didn.t Miss Much.

On one of the trolley lines leading to
well-known amusement park they
have a system whereby the cars are
stopped at certain points to allow uni
formed inspectors to count the pas
sengers, presumably as a check on the
conductors. The other day among the
passengers on the car on which the
Saunterer happened to be riding was
well-dressed young fellow with a
penchant for cracking jokes at other
peoples expense. When the car stopped
for the count-up. he had lot of fun
thrusting gibes in the inspector, the
conductor and the trolley company peo-
pie in general. Finally, just as the
car was about to resume its journey, he
called out:
Say, Mr. Inspector, you missed me-
The inspector turned and looked the
young fellow over very carefully.

JUST ABOUT GONE
High Water at DeBeque Threat
ems to Garry A,oay the Big
Bridge at that Place.

Last night B. P. Blair, one Of the
board Of county commissioners living at
DeBeque, wired G. p holland, president
of the board. to send an engineer to De-
Beque at once if they desired to save the
state bridge located at that place.
The telegram arrived too late for Mr..
holland to secure Mr.. Crosbys services
but he went out on the train this morn
ing and when, upon his arrival, he had
examined the condition Of affairs he at
once telegraphed to Mr.. holland to send
at once fifteen railway rails. A second
telegram followed shortly after, asking
that a car load Of rails be sent immedi-
ately.
Expedition was used at this end Of
the line and it was ascertained that
there were plenty of rails here in the
yards of the Rio Grande company, but
it required the permission Of Supeiin-
tendent Ridgway before they could be
secured. Wires were sent Immediately
to Mr. Ridgway to SECURE the iron.
Up until o'clock this afternoon no
word had been received from Superin-
tendent Ridgway and Chairman Noland
was in great suspence, especially as he
received another urgent telegram to
send the rails forward at once, from
Com missioner Blair and Engineer
Crosby.
Master Mechanic Struthers had an
engine and car in readiness all day to
take the rails flying to the relief OF the
bridge which is endangered, but he
could not move until he received word
from higher authority. 1t seems too
bad to lose the bridge because Of being
unable to secure authority to use such
material as would save the structure.
Chairman Noland said he believed
that the bridge had cost somewhere near
$4,000. 1t would be great loss to the
people of DeBeque and the Bluestone
ann Plateau valleys, should the bridge
go out.
All that can be done by the citizens oi
DeBeque is being done to save the
bridge.

pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing it's work. The proprietors have
