RICHEST CONGRESSMAN.

Congressman William Cornell is re-
puted TO be the wealthiest member OF
the present national house of repre-
sentatives. but what he is worth can
not be exactly computed in dollars and
cents. on account of the nature of his
investments, which are somewhat fiuc-
tuating in character. Mr.. Conneirs
success in life has been achieved by in
dustrious habits associated with prin-
ciples of strict business integrity, and
young Americans may imbibe fresh in

s9lutary example. More than fifty
years ago Mr.. Cornell began life by

day. At the present time he is the

State OF Colorado.
From the Denver Evening Post
For the first time in the history Of the
state of Colorado, the right OF a horse
as being entitled to sufficient food and
proper shelter at his masters expense
is to be tested before the courts, with
the Human Society unfolding the
horses side Of the case. The facts OF
the case are as follows: During the
extremely cold weather and period OF
deep SHOWS last January, Agent Bailey
received reports that there was a band
OF horses, thirteen or fourteen in num-
Der, twelve miles up in the mountains
from Wauneta, and that the animals
were showed in and starving to death.
They had been turned out by their
owner to shift for themselves during
the winter. With a companion he made
q trip on snowShoes to the place, and
after considerable difficulty found the
animals. They were In the heavy tim
Der. The snow, five or six feet deep on
a level. they had packed down by
tramping about, so that they were shut
in by the white walls of snow several
feet high. forming yard" such as the
elk make in the aspen thickets during
the winter. The poor beasts were ter
ribly emaciated and in the last ex-
rremities of starvation. Agent Bailey
and his companion returned to Wau-
meta and went back on snowshoes as
soon as possible with hay for the ell
but famished animals. One or two
died from the cold and privation, in
spite of the efforts of the two men.
1t was three weeks before a path could
be beaten to the town and the horses
able to travel. They were then taken
to Wauneta, and their owners, known
from the brands on the horses, noti-
fed. Agent Bailey demanded from
each owner pay for the food taken to
the horses and the necessary expense
Of removing them from the mountains.
This was refused by the owners, and
the horses were held by the agent. A
suit to replevin was then instituted by
the owners for the recovery of the
horses. This is the case as it stands,
and the decision of the court will de-
termine whether or not a horse that
has been left by Ills owner to starve
during the winter may contract a
board bill for which the master is
liable, and in a large degree fix the re-
lstions Of owner and owned.

Arabic Tyrc,Hritcrs.

One of the most interesting of recent
inventions is an Arabic typewriter. which
has just been patented. Inasmuch as
Arabic writing has no fewer than oSS
distinct characters, the difficulties to be
overcome are obvious. There are, now
ever, in Arabic only twenty-nine letters,
each letter having many different forms,
One letter. for example, has siXty-iive
forms, the purpose of this variety in
forms being that each letter shall join
with the adjacent letters. whatever their
shape.
This condition of affairs. obviously, is
hard on the type-setter, and for a long
time past Arabic scholars have desired
to contrive compromise characters. so to
speak which would join well enough, AMI
which would at the same time be salts

language This has at length been ac-
complished, and, as one of the results OF

Thus Arab merchants in this country and
ali over the world will be able to con-
duct their correspondence much more
easily than hitherto. The Arabic Ian
guage is in use to-day in Egypt, Persia
and Arabia.
Such an achievement gives hope that
there may yet arrive q Chinese type
