The First Words.

A curious little sorry comes from IN
English officer invalided home from
South Africa The eldest son of n
well-known duke had a younger broth
er in Ladysmith, and was naturally
anxious and eager for his safety. He
himself was serving with the forces
of General Butler and was through
all the long and arduous campaign
which preceded the relief of that place.
When it became known that the road
was at last open the young nObleman
was sent forward with the forces to
enter the town. He soon found his
brother,whOm his eyes had been yealn-
ing to see for so many long and weary
months. "Hullo, Jack" he shouted,
and then in his excitement and pleas
ure, for the life of him he couldn't
think what to say next. At last he
blurted out: "Old Tom, the gardener,
is dead" An anti-climax which, in
spite of the apparently mournful char.
acter Of the news, caused both the
brothers TO rear with laughter. Such
was the first item of home news which
the younger one heard after sick.

norses Only Two Toet High.

Perhaps the most remarkable dis
cOyery ever made in America was the
diminutiYe race of horses found re.
Gently near a great lake in the wllds
of Wyoming. The tiny equines, though
less than two and a half feet high
were perfect specimens Of fully ma.
tured horses. Exact images of fine
horsehesh as seen to-day, they were
nevertheless smaller than any pony
living at present. Amusement filed
the minds of the scientific men who
found the little animals.
Thousands of them inhabited the
shores of the lake, yet they have never
been found elsewhere. Perhaps some
choice food peculiarly adapted to their
needs grew along its shores. 1t is
doubtful If they were ever ridden by
man, and certainly n human of nor.
NAL size would never have attempted
to bestride so small a creature. II
dwarfs rode upon the liliputlan steeds
no traces of their presence have YET
been found.

from storm, and the depths of the sea,

that he has not earned his repose?
In another paper published by the
United States Fish Commission Mr..
Kellogg points out that the clam Is
rapidly being extermlnated by being
taken to market when too SMALL and
this is particularly true in Narragan-
sett Bay, where four or five years ago
clans were plentiful, but now are
scarce. When young they are hardy
and can be planted with great facility.
The experiment has been tried in the
Essex ri 'er in Massachusetts, and
was successful only in measure, for
while the cultivated clans were of
more uniform size than those pro-
duced without the aid of man, and
sold for $1.75 barrel, while the wild
ones brought only $3.50, pOaching de-
feated the industry.
1t was found that planters preferred
to take clans from any bed but their
own, and the Selectmen could not be
brought to infict any penalties for
taking that which since the begin
ming had been regarded as the prop
e-ty of every man.-New York Times
