VANDERBILT TOOK REVENGE.
,MOw He Sacrificed 100000 in Order
TO Get Even with HorSe-
man stone.

"Ever hear the story why the late
W. II, Vanderbilt paid odd change for
Maud S,--that is, why the sum was $2i, =
900, instead Of, say, $4,000 or $25 ,O0C ?"
Inquired q well-known horseman, re-
Hates ihe Boston Herald. "rhere is an
interesting story back Of that which
has never been printed, and as | had
1t from Mr.. Vanderbilt himself I'd bet
"a red apple IL is all right, ......
"The sum which Mr. Naaderbi!tiuas
to pay Capt. George Il, Stone, OF tiSIa
cinnati, for Maud $. was an even. 500,
600. Before the mare was deliyeEea
Capt. Stone is supposed to have rued
his bargain. Anyhow, he wrote to Mr..
Vanderbilt that he had promised to
give Bair, the trainer of Maud S., 81, 900
es a honorarum, and he thought Mr..
Vanderbilt ought to add this to what
he was to pay, The presumption is
that Stone thought this marking up
OF the price would break the bargain.
i One thousand dollars wasn't much for
IA man like Mr.. Vanderbilt, but that
little ruse made him just as mad as If
1t bad taken the last cent he had OF,
earth. But he was something of a
David lIarum himself, and knew a good
piece OF horsehesh when he saw It, and
when he sent Capt. Stone his check for
the mare it was for $21, 900 instead of
$4,000.
"That's part OF the story, but only
the least interesting. Afterwnrd, when
Capt. Stone headed syndicate to buy
Maud S. back from Mr.. Vanderbilt, and
was willing to pay 100000 for her, the
big railroad man still remembered the
$1,000 transaction, and the Cincinnati
people could not have bought the mare
if they had offered 81 100000 for her.
eOf course, when Mr.. Vanderbilt sold
her to Robert Bonner for $40, 900, when
fhe had been offered 100000, there waS
IN good deal said about his desire to
get the phenomenal trotter In the hands
rof a man who would take good care
tof her. The fact Is that Mr.. Wander.
biIt was willing to sacrifice 100000 to
'even up matters with Mr.. Stone. And
'H this was expensive revenge for Mr..
Vanderbilt 1t was even more expensive
for Stone, for II he could have pur-
chased Maud s. at that time he could
nave cleaned up $3.50, 900 with her"

BURIAL OF SPANISH RULERS,
The weird Ceremonial Custom That
Is Prescribed for Royal OH
HcduicS.

Strange and almost weird is the ccre-
monial which accompanies the burial
OF Spanish kings, The pantheon, or
royal tomb, is at the palace Of Escuri-
al, situated 5000 feet above the level of
the sea and some distance from the
capital, Only kings, queens and
mothers of kings are buried there, the
cofius Of the kings lying on one side,
those of the queens on the other, After
lying in state for several days in the
throneroom in Madrid, says the San
Francisco Argonaut, an enormous pro-
cession is formed accompanying the
body to the Escurial, A halt is made
on the way and the corpse rests there
for one night, In the morning the
lord high chamberlain stands at the
sideofthe coffin and says in loud tones:
"Is your majesty pleased 10 proceed
on your journey"
After short silence the procession
moves on and winds up to the, grand
portal OF the palace, These doors are
never opened except to ndmt IL royal
parsonage, dead or alive When the
saskct containing the remains Is at
last placed in the vault the chamber
lain unlocks II and Bnceling down,
calls with loud voice: "Senor! Senior!
Scnor!P After u solemn pause he cries
again; "IIis majesty does not reply
Then it. Is true the king is dead" He
then locks the coffin, gives the key to

One OF the newest Of occupations II
that OF Glitch rider" in the western
states which have large irrigating
canals The "ditch rider" patrols the
ditch throughout the season Of actual
operation TO see that the works are in
good repair and to superintend the
proper distribution Of water from the
system. Where ditch Is not longer
than l2 TO - miles one ditch rider Is
expected to patrol its entire length,
but upon more extensive systems sew
eral may be required. In the latter
case the canal Is divided into divisions,
each of which is patroled by n separate
rider, and the length Of division de-
pends upon the character OF the duties,
varying with the amount of repairs,
the danger Of breaks and leaks, and
the number Of regulating gates to look
after. The average length Of a divi-
sion, says the New York Press, is from
12 to IS miles, and the average compen-
sation for the work ranges from $50
to s75 q month, out of which he must
pay his own board and furnish and
maintain his own horse and cart.
