was that the corporal had been found
in his company room with his throat

4 boy of l3 was murdered by a
race horse, which had taken a vio-
lent dislike to him. It is believed
that the boy at some time had teased
or maItreated the horse, for it was
oentleness itself with every one else.
The bov was warned not to go near
the horse, but one day he entered a
loose box stall where his enemy was
confined. The horse at once knocked
the boy down, grabbed him by the
hack of his waiStcOat with his teeth
and beat his brains out by slamming
him against the sides Of the stall
The horse kept the would-be rescuers
at bay while he was committing his
murder by kicking violently. Having

A Milwaukee man was recently an

city was anxious to show his

N real metropolitan style.
1t chanced that the new officer was
detailed to a beat on which was To-
Gated the opera house, and he was
given special instructions to watch
the crowd of small boys, who for
weeks had been a source of great an
noyance to the manager of the the
lJer.
On the evening when a particular
attraction. was billed at the play
house, says the Milwaukee Sentinel,
the policeman noticed the boys as
usual hanging about the front doors
and creating no small disturbance.
Now as a matter of fact boys in the
small towns have a way of lodging
police officers even as they do in the
cities, and the new policeman, realiz-
ing this, thought that he would work
plan which would be the means of
making him much-talked-of sleuth
at the central station.
A number of hacks and carriages
were standing at the theater en-
trance, and the new policeman, after,
as he thought, eluding the gaze of the
Youngsters, crossed in the shadow of
the street and enscOnced himself on
the cushion seats of a hack, ready in
an instant to run out and grab the
youthful offenders. But he did not
know the kind of youngsters he had to

ing in the vehicle.
There was a moments discussion
and then plan of revenge was de-
cided on. The hackman walked noise
lessIy around the dark side of the
carriage, and before the officer knew
what was being done the horses were
whipped and going at a mad rate of
speed down the street.
There was yell from inside to
stop, out the driver never heard.
Around corners and over crossings at
a pace that made the policeman hair
stand up with fright the horses dashed
as he clung frantically to the seat
TO keep from having his head bumped
against the top of the hack.
The ride lasted for Is minutes, and
when the horses were finally allowed
to settle into a walk and stop the dis
tance back to the pOliceman's beat
was reckoned by the hack driver at
about four miles. OF course there
was an argument, possibly some Ian
guage that would not bear repeat
ing, but through it all the hack driver
maintained an air of calm indiffer-
ence until. in a last effort to contain
himself from laughing, he made the
proposition that the policeman pay
his fare back TO town.
1t was insult to injury in the Of
ficer's eyes. but Notwithstanding he
RENE mbered that the chief was at the
theater and if he was not seen upon
the beat when the play was out ques-
tions would be asked. Accordingly,
with much loud talk. a 81 bill was
produced. and the driver with profess
sionaI politeness opened the carriage
door for his passenger to enter on
the return trip.
When the hack finally did come in
sight Of the opera house there was a
scattering of small boys, but 1t was
not done quick enough for the new
officer to escape hearing the delight
ed paals Of laughter as the last tat
tered coat and cap whisked around

And turned from dissipation:
He managed daily to indulge
In proper recreation;
He never drank nor smoked nor ehewed.
He EusbanG-d his powers
AnC never varied from his rule
OF kceping proper hours.
He made a study OF the forms
And mysteries OF diet;
ae Stunned the busy marts OF trade,
To live in leace and quiet;
He wore hygienIc hats and shoes,
HYGIENE shirts and collars
He'd ne'er have slept without fresh air
For twenty thousand dollars.
He might have lived a hundred years,
As he so much desired,
If he had not lain down one day
And suddenly expired.
They rubbed his hands, they called his

Alas! he would not rally
He and a sturdy William goat
Had frolicked IN an alley.

and refused to give advice on that sub.
iect.
Wung took a steamer for China, and
a Chinese creditor put him in hook for
a debt of 81 500 The probabilities are
it is stated that he promptly paid over
| the amount and went free.
| Yesterday another Chinese was dis
charged in bankruptcy by Judge Estee,
after the usual legal proceedings had
| been gone through. He owed about
$1,000 and had only about $4,000 with
| which to pay them off, as far as the
court was able to find out and the
Honolulu firms who trusted him are
therefor out $14 O00 There are those,
however. who say that the Chinese has
fortune in China, made here while
he was piling up the big debt he can
never be made to pay now. He is
known to have been making a very
large income for a number of years
past, and has long had the reputation
of being a wealthy man.
The trick is one easily worked and
one which does not appear to be pre-
ventable. The American bankruptcy
law quickly frees a man from debts
he cannot pay, after he has turned over
all his property for distribution among
his creditors but if a Chinese piles up
debts by sending all the money he can
to China and then turns over what
property he has here and cheerfully
takes oath that it is all he has in the
world, neither the court nor the credi-
tors have much chance.
