REAL HORSE SENSE.
Displayed by nm Old Mare Whose
Feet Needed New Shoes and Who
Went After Them.

They have at the Russell stables in
Pittsfield, Mass, a horse which was
purchased from Ex-senator Dawes and
is used on the baggage wagon running
from the hotel to the depot.
One morning this spring the old
horse was taken out of the stable and
on the way to the depot she slipped on
the ice and fell. Again during the
morning hours about town the horse
slipped on the ice. At noon the horse
was unhitched and sent into her stall
for her midday meal.
She is never hitched, and when the
men looked for her to make the one
o'clock trip to the station she was no.
where to be found. They searched the
stable and streets, and finally went to
Ex-senator Dawes house, but the old
mare was not to be found.
Toward three o'clock, however, she
appeared at the stable, trotting in
briskly, and, looking around, went
into her stall.
1t was discovered that she had been
newly .shod, and the employees made
inquiry at the blacksmith shop and
learned that the horse had arrived
there little after noon and had waited
her turn for the sboer. The men at
the shop knew her and thought she
had been left there by some one of the
hostlers.
The old Dawes mare was making her
regular trips to the station next day
with new sharp corks, and she has won
the heart of every stable man by her
knowledge of the right thing to do at
the right time.

A SALUTE WASTED.

to n Negro Cook.

The flagship Monongahela was an
chored off the navy-yard at Pensacola
bay in 1856, and Admiral Farragut,
who was then in command, was on
board. He had been very busy the
week before paying official calls on
the mainland, and among those who
had entertained him was Gen. Candy.
When, therefore, word was received
that the general would visit the ship
the next day, the admiral. deter
mined to have everything ready to re-
ceive him in a style becoming his
rank, says Youths Companion.
The old boat was scrubbed and
holystoned from stem to stern, the
bright work was given an extra rub,
and things generally were put into
the best of order. Capt. Haywood,
now brigadiergeneral commandant of
the marine corps, had a special in
spection of his company of marines,
and not a spot of rust or Il dull he'll

years ago, while it was drawing pas
senger train on a dark night through
the heavy tropical forest, a sudden
shock was felt, and the train came to
standstill. The engine and tender were
thrown off the metals and half way
down the embankment, though, for
tunately, they did not drag the car
riages after them. When the driver,
who had been pitched off, went back to
ascertain the cause of the accident, he
saw large bull elephant at the bottom
of the embanlment on the other side
of the line. 1t died few minutes after
the collision from the violent shock and
loss of blood, its off fore leg having been
shattered and piece of the trunk torn
off. Beyond the fright and shock
caused by the sudden stopping of the
train, which, luckily, was travelling at
only Is miles an hour, no injury result
ed to any of the passengers. In the
same month of the same year similar
accident occurred on the Bengal-Nag-
pur railway in India.
On pitch dark night mail train
was running at the rate of 27 miles an
hour through very thick jungle which
was known to hold wild elephants. The
driver felt an obstruction and at
tempted to reverse, but the engine left
the metals, dragging with it a brake
van, the carriage of the locomotive SUI
perintendent and some other carriages,
but without causing injury to any of
the passengers or officials. AT first it
was thought that the accident had
been brought about by cattle straying
on the line, but the officials soon found
a dead elephant. Apparently the ami
NAL had been crossing the line just as
the train came up, and had been struck
by the engine and hurled down the
bank. The agent of the company sent
home one of the tusks to be put up in
| the board room as memorial of the oc-
currence. These instances of train
being thrown off the line through col
lision with an elephant show that
while such accidents are pretty sure tc
be "bad for the elephant" they are also
attended with considerable danger to
rolling stock, and even to human life,
The latter consideration completes the
analogy we have already drawn.-Lon-
| don Standard.

Big Enst Indian Trees.

1t is reported in authentic works that
a banyan tree on the Nerbudda once
covered space So great that it shell
tered 1000 men. The power of the
floods has now much reduced it in size,
but it is still 1000 feet in circumfer-
ence, and the trunks, large and small
exceed 1000 in number. Other trees
have been known to cover an area of 13
acres. They are frequently found near
temples and on or near funeral mounds.
The figs are insipid but abundant. The
leaves are of a bright green and form
dense shade. They are five inches
long and four inches wide and they are
used by the Brahmans as plates and
dishes. The wood of the tree is porous
ard is almost worthless. The natives
use various portions of the tree for
medicinal purposes.

BEST OF FUMIGANTS.
infectant, Hut Sure Death to
Moths and Ants. tN.r

The fumigating properties of sui
phur have long made it valuable
household remedy, and the sulphur
candles now on the market fill long
felt want.
Not only are they convenient disin-
fectant, but they are almost sure death
to flies, red ants, reaches and moths.
The room to be fumigated must be
tightly closed, even the keyholes
stopped with paper; then closets,
trunks, drawers and all infected recep-
tacles must be opened, so the fumes of
the sulphur can penetrate every nook
and Granny.
The candle is put in metal candle
stick and set in an earthen or iron yes
sel-a coal hod will answer quite as
well as anthing else.
The only requisite is that it shall be
deep enough to prevent the flames set
ting fire to anything. Care must be
taken not to inhale the flame when
lighting the candle.
The room should be kept closed for
about four hours, during which time
the purifying fumes of the sulphur will
thoroughly do their work.
These candles must not be used
where there is gilt paper, picture rails
or picture frames, as they will be tar.

RAT AND ELEVATOR.
Rodents Appetite for Lubricatins
Oil Was the Cause of an Acci-
dent mt minneapolis.

The greed of one rat caused the fall
of passenger elevator in Minneapolis
recently.
Savory as strong as cheese is the lu-
bricating oil used on the mechanism
of the elevator. On the morning in
question one of them climbed to the
well-oiled pulley above the cage.
Meanwhile four men stepped into the
elevator. Alex. Lunden, the operator,
slammed the door and the car started
up.
Before Mr.. Rat realized what had
happened he was dragged between
cable and wheel and his life was crushed
out.
His body threw the cable off the
wheel. Upward shot the car, and Lun-
deem realized that it was beyond con-
troll.
Tug as he would at the cable the cle-
vator sped to the top of the shaft,
! where it smashed a wooden platform
and dropped.
Lunden hung to the rope, though it
burned the skin off his hands, and this
| helped to lessen the force of the de-
scent. At the bottom the air cushion
caused the car to rebound to the first
| floor and then subside.-N. Y. World.

TELLS HER OWN STORY.
Mrs. MT Collins, the "Cnttle Queen
of Montana" Talks Interesting
Iy of Her Early Life.

NV life since childhood has been on
the plains and in the mountains. My
father was one of the first to visit the
gold fields of Pixies peak. What is
now the city of Denver, Col, was
then u settlement of but two or three
log cabins and few tents. All pro-
visions and merchandise at that time
were carried across the plains on
freighting wagons, the freighters
travelling in large companies for pro-
lection against the Indians.
Ny first adventure of note came
while with one OF these freighting
trains on the way from Denver to the
east, where l was journeying to at
tend school at my old home in Iowa
The train was attacked by a band
of hostiles, and l was captured.
/ was taken to the main camp and
presented to the chiefs daughter as
playmate, or, more correctly, as a
pet. l was compelled to witness tho
torture of prisoners almost daily, at
one time being forced to behold the
burning at. the stake of Mexican
prisoner.
Again, with other prisoners, / was
compelled to run the gantlet, and to
this day bear the scar from wound
inflicted by tomahawk in the hand
of bloodthirsty Indian. But, hav-
ing forced me to battle for life in
an effort to run the gantlet, having
inflicted wound which was intended
to produce death. their thirst for
blood appeared satisfied, and every eff
fort was made to nurse me back to
health.
While with the Indians learned to
do bead work and decorations, OBJ.
tanned knowledge of their medicines
witnessed the ceremony of selecting
chiefs and medicine men, was taught
their beliefs, their dances, sung their
songs and spoke their language fairly
well.
After several months of captivity
through the agency of United States
troops / was exchanged for four In
dian prisoners and returned to my
home in Denver.
This adventure was unfortunate; il
robbed me of an education, as from
this time / never had another oppor
tunity to return to the east, and there
were then no schools in the west.
Following my captivity and return
to my home 1 made - round trip:

We went up the Gallatin valley, past
where Bozeman now stands, to Vir-
ginia City.
There were no laws or courts in
those days, only such as were made
by the miners, who would gather at
the stores and plan what they would
do with the desperadoes. have seen
the bodies of men left hanging from
the limbs Of trees for days as a warn
ing to criminals.
For the past 1s years I have been
engaged in the cattle business in
northern Montana, the first IS months
of which time l did not see the face
of white woman, as the only set
tiers were friendly Indians,
My first shipment of cattle was
made nine years ago, and my journey
to Chicago at that time was also
my first visit east since leaving my
old home in Iowa.
