he touched upon the forms of government
In different parts OF the world, and, IN re-
Spouse to "A suggestion that he had sue

THE CARABAO.
A Few sober Remarks Upon the Ma
tive OK OF the Philippines

From the Overland Monthly.
The cara ao is noble animal of about
four hundred tons displacement and occu-
pies twelve-t hirteenths of the availab
breathing space of the Island of Luzon.
He is neat, but not gaudy, and i'm his
general appearance somewhat resembles
that delightful creature, the Prum, so
called because II is not a fish. He con-
sits principally of a pair of horns and A
martyrized expression OF countenance, and
is considered by scientists to be a cross be-
tween the millennium and full army ra-
lions.
He lieves a simple aud frugal life, and
spends all of It in making up his mind 10
execute sudden move. Then he dies. At
this sudden interruption OF his projects
he is generally about SO years of age
When not in use as a means Of further
ing the Interests Of interurban transporta-
ton the carabao is kept submerged in wa
ter. This is done in order 10 preserve his
unrutied temper and also to furnish a
novel sport, unheard of in other parts of
the globe. Carabao fishing is a pleas
recreation for the natives in the small
hours of the morning
As above intima ted the carabao of the
hlhppiuts ~ pIlttClpdlly usG0 as a gray
horse. and in this capacity presents many
advantages over his equine cousin. He
does not shy at cable cars does not inter
fere, and never in the history of the ISL
ands has he been known 10 run away He
is gentle and kind in all harness, and can
b. handled with equal success by children
or adults; he heeds neither.
There is a prescribed and unvarying
method to be followed In driving a cara
bao.
After having been hitched 10 a cart
with due ceremony the carabao will i'm
mediately lie down in the street. more 10

pronunciation Of the many eplthets In the
Spanish vocabulary than out of any spirit
OF meanness.
AS soon as you have sufficiently eired
your profanity, kick him twice on The left
side, and with club Of any other avail
able means of persuasion plant pow fful
blow on his head He will then get up
unless you have fractured his skull. in
which case IL will be necessary gor you to
obtain another cara bao and begin all over
again.
As soon as he Is on his feet you must
place your tongue firmly against the roof
OF the mouth, siffen the muscles of the
throat and give vent to a series Of sounds
such as usually accompany the payment
OF a tribute 10 Neptune when about TWEEN
ty-four hours out of port. As he hears
these the carabao will move slowly for
ward.
Now prod him necessarily with your
club, and keep on utterlng the sbove-de-
scribed exhortauon, and the chances are
that he will move ahead az least Ave
yards before stopping again. Repeat the
same opera tions as before, and by dinf OF
patience and perseverance won will arrive
at your destination. o. II. Fernback.

THERE'S,
CRYING NEED
FOR JOH.N 0.
First District Democrats See IN Ex-
Congressman Pendleton the
Only Candidate 4
WHO CAN BRING THEM VICTORY
And his Friends Are ! Making Des-
perate Efforts in Bis Behalf,
without His Consent. Il ss!,s

The Democrats OF, the First district
stand in great danger OF meeting In
convention at sistersville without being
able to. prevail upon any available man
to accept the empty honor Of being de-
feated by Captain Doyener in Novem-
Der. They are truly In desperate straits.
and the leaders Of Democracy In this
section have been wringins their hands
and consulting the oracles in vain. No
light has yet broken upon the dark
horizon, but they are still peerlng into
the gloom in the hope OF seeing some
figure arise that would about be the
size OF Congressional candidate.
But however critical the case may be
they do not consider It hopeless. There
is scheme now on foot TO have Hon.
John o. Pcndleton nominated by. accla-
nation at sistersville; to have the nom
ination presented to hlmin such a man
ner that they; hope to inreigle Mr.. Pen
dleton into reluctant consent. This
plan was disclosed to an Intelligencer
reporter who accidentally overheard q
conversation between two prominent
Democratic workers yesterday. +
A certain Democratic councilman was
standing on a prominent.corner waiting
for a street car. when he was approach
ed by Democratic worker who said:3"I
want you to do me a favor. and that is
to do all you can for John Pendleton for
the congressional nomination"
The Democratic councilman non-com-
mittally said that Mr.. Pendleton had
always been good friend of his.
"1ll tell you how'll IS" went on the
Democratic worker, II have received
word from all over the interior Of the
district, and they say we must nominate
Pendleton; that We can't possibly win
with any other man. Now, mind you,
Pendleton doesn't know thing about
this and he is not to know until the
time Is ripe. He must be nominated,
that's all there is aboutit. I have some
money that am going to spend, and I
am going down to slstersville to-mor-
row to work up the matter down there
| 49," T9isFt tE
Excuse me-" said the councilman,
"but this is my car" And the Demo-
cratic worker then slowly drifted up
street. The reporter was sorry. He
would have liked to have heard more on
the same subject. Anyhow, Mr.. Pen
dleton will be sufficiently warned of his
fate. ( 4.
