GOOD QUEEN VIC.
Will Allow No More Docking of
Horses

London, Nov 14.-Those who have
long agitated against the docking of
horses tails have won great vic
tory. The queen, in sending out an
order that none of her horses should
be treated in that way, also announced
that she persuaded the prince of
Wales to follow her example. With
royalty taking up such vigorous
stand, it is likely that the locked
horse will soon be as rare in London
as full-tailed horses are at present.

BIG NEW YORK FIRM ASSIGNS.

Grant Bros, Stock Brokers, Involved
in Trouble.
New York. Nov. 14.-The firm of
Grant Brothers, stock brokers. made
an assignment yesterday to e. G. Sted-
man and the assignment was made the
basis of lot of rumors to the effect
that stoppage of the firms business
was due to defalcation. The amount
of defalcation was placed at from
$15O.OOO to $4,000 but up to the pres
ent time no one connected with the
firm will admit or deny the rumors.
The firm was prominent on the stock
exchange some years ago, but of late
has been inactive. Stedman says the
liabilities will be below 100000. prob
ably less than half that sum.

THIRTY MINUTE STRIKE.
Santa Fe Telegraph Operators Out for
Half Hour.

Los Angeles, Nov IA strike was
ordered on the Santa Fe system yester-
day, involving all telegraph operators
west of Albuquerque, including those
in the employ of the Southern Cali
fornia and San Joaquin Valley roads.
The strike, however, was OF short
duration, for within thirty minutes OF
the first order which emanated from
the grievance committee of the Broth
erhood of Railroad photographers at
Chicago, there came a second order
directing the men to resume work.
No details are obtainable at this end
at present, but it is presumed that
concessions were made to the brother
hood to call the strike off. The dura-
ton of the strike was so limited that
so far as is known none of the men
actually left their keys.

HOW TO CURE MEAT.
lie Knows, hut which only n Few
Do in the Right Way.

One important item in curing meat
of all kinds is to lay it out in a cool
place, where there is good circula-
ton of air, until the animal heat is
thoroughly cooled out.
There is a process of sugar-curing
pork that requires that the salt, sugar
and spices be rubbed in while the meat
is still warm, but il requires experience
TO do the work properly, and the av-'
erage farmer can hardly afford to run
the risk of failure.
Generally at this season there is little
difficulty in thoroughly cooling out
meat if it is spread out over night.
Meat should not be allowed to freee
before it is sailed, as IL will not take
salt while frozen. The salt is apt to
form in cakes over the meat, and un.
less looked after when a few warm
days come the meat will be certain to
spoil. In applying the salt the best
plan is to take quantity in the hand
and rub it on the meat.
This will cause the meat to take salt
more readily than If il is simply sprin-
Killed. over it. After rubbing well lay the
meat in the box or on the shelf arranged
Tor it and sprinkle it literally with salt
II the weather is moderate so that the
meat is not frozen it is best to 90 over
IL second time in a week or ten DAYS.
rubbing as at first, and then sprinkle
again. If the weather is cold enough
to keep the meat frozen this may be
done in few days after the wather
moderates.
When meat is picked instead of dry
sailed the brine should be made as
strong as possible and should fully COW
er the meat. In three days the brine
should be drawn off and either fresh
brine put on or the old brine be boiled
and the scum that rises to the surface
skinned Off and then when cool poured
back.
In both brine and dry sailing the
addition of some sugar, saltpeter and
pepper will improve the quality of the
meat us well as aiding in preserving it.
Allowing the meat to remain in salt
too long has tendency to make the
lean part hard and unpalatable. When
ever sufficiently sailed il should be
hung up and smoked and then packed
down. If Ibis is done before the warm
weather comes the risk of loss will be
greatly lessened.-St. Louis Republic.

work for him to do you have no bust

will become eager and anxious to do il.

TO let the dog go just as far as you want
him to go and no farther. Make him
stop at your command. BE prompt and
resolute, but never whip or abuse;
chastise, If necessary, by pulling tho
ears or cutting little, but be careful.
Teach him to have confidence in you
and in himself.
As soon as you make him understand
what you want him to do help him to do
it as near right as possible, and caress
him, to let him know he has done right.
Always tell the dog what you want him
to do and make him understand, If pos
sible, before you start him out, and if
you are careful you can work him Ly
