Animal Leads His Master to Lost
Horse and Wagon.
f. H. Groseclose has recovered the
horse lost by Benjamin Groseclose, MS
1o-year-old son, ana three other boys
while fishing, says an exchange printed
at Walla Walla, Wash. While the boys
were testing in the shade above Dudley
the horse became frightened and disaD-
peared in the brush, dragging the wagon
after it. Diligent search failed to dis
cover the equine, and the boys walked
home: When they. reached this city it
was found the dog had not accompanied
them on their homeward journey. The
following day Mr.. Groseclose proceeded
in search OF the lost horse. dog and
wagon, but his efforts were in vain. For
three days he returned to his quest fruit
lessly. Then he gave ii up, thinking
someone had stolen both horse and wag-
on. Then the dog came to the Crosse
close residence and scratched ON the door.
When Mr.. Groseclose rose toadmit him
he trotted some distance up the street,
looked back and whineu. No attention
was paid to the matter at the time, but
as the dog continued it's strange antics,
MIR. Groseclose yesterday decided to fol-
low it and see what it would do. The
faithful animal led him some distance
above Dudley and directly to where the
horse and wagon were caught fast ia Il
thlcket. The horse was very weak. hav-
ing had neither food nor water for five

OBSOLETE CUSTOMS.

Few know of the curious ways of rent

at one time SO replete. Briefly. the prop

was for generations the home of the
Of providing the coronation champions
Although the custom is happily now as
dead as the proyerbial door nail, it WAS
once compulsory to pay rent to the crown
for every hat one wore The receipt for
the rent was issued IN the form Of Il pa
per ticket, which had ITO be pasted or
affixed to the 'uttcrer' in the lining or in
penalty OF t1O for each omission. The
value of the ticket ranged from the Sd.
payable upon hats to As. value and I'M
der, up to the maximum levy of 2S pay
able upon titles" of I; value OF 12S and
upward. AS may be imagined, this spe-
cies of rentcollecting was lodged every
whit as much as is the modern income
tax. Sometimes, however,. the lodging
gave rise to exceedingly humorous situa-
tons. For instance, it Is recorded that
Rev. Charles Scott. chaplain of Ports
mouth dOckyard, having prosecuted Il
Workingman for carrying Il gun without
Il license, had the satisfaction of seeing
Il fine of S. imposed. Unfortunately for
the ecclesiastic, however. I've had laid his
hat, upside down, close to the dock In
a moment the prisoner spotted the alb
sence of the necessary stamp from the
chaplains hat lining, and. laying an in
formation against the offender, he soon
had the pleasure of seeing his quondam
prosecutor mulcted in Il considerably
heavier sum than himself The sting of
the situation lay in the fact, that, as in
former, the Workingman became entitled
to half the fine extracted from the cleric,
who had in this way to pay the very pen
atty that he had just been successful in
causing to he enforced.-London Mail.

Paris rises around any man who knows
