Trading Wife and Cow for Two
Horses

News of quite a remarkable trans
action in horses, cows and hearts is
forwarded from Altoona, Pa, says
The Chicago Record.Herald Mr.. A.
Stefiini went to the Coal Creek quar-
ries on Thanksgiving to spend the
day. Reing an American of but re-
cent origin. he may not have under
stood thoroughly the sacredness or
significance of the occasion; but be
that as 1t may, he made remarks
while engaged in celebrating that led
one Antoine Sardissa to confront him
with proposition. Mr. Steffini
said he owned COW, but found her
to be Improbable because his wife
refused to milk her. Thereupon
Sardissa offered to trade team of
horses for Mrs. Steffini and the COW,
and a deal was made on the spot.
A few days after the transfer of
the goods Stetfinl's horses went lame,
and he drove them over to Sardissa's S
where he protested that he had been
cheated and demanded his wife and
his COW back,
Sardissa invited him into the house
the principal part Of which was fine
steak cooked by the lady who figures
in the case. Steftini tilted back from
the table, after having satisfied his
appetite, and said he felt better, but
was still firm in his determination to
have the trade declared off, Then
Sardissa acknowledged that the COW
had been killed the day before and
that sAe had furnished the steak SO
much enjoyed by the visitor.
Mr.. Steffini grumbled some, and
finally said he would be satisfied to
return the team ii he could just have
his wife back. The proposition was
spurned and in the fight which fol-
lowed the lady assisted Mr.. sardissa
to knock Mr.. Steflni down and pound
him full Of big dark blue Jumps.
Stefiini then went home to bed, aud

1t may be that Mr.. Sardissa and the

On the other hand, however. We are

thank the emperor for his expressions
OF sympathy after the assassination
of President Mckinley, the emperor
i was informed that he had been re.
iieved by his government and would
soon return to the United States.
Francis Joseph expressed great re.
gret at Mr.. Herdliska's departure, and
SAID that on more than one trying &C.
casion treferring to the assassina-
tion OF the Empress Elizabeth and
the death of number of Austrian
miners during the coal strike of 1897
IN Pennsylvania), his attention had
oeen attracted to the admirable man
ner in which Mr.. Herdliska had
borne the responsibilities imposed
upon him, and had won the respect
ana confidence of the Austrian gov
ernment- He inquired II Mr.. Hend-
liskas father was living and asked
tne son to convey to him his compli-
ments and best wishes for his health
and prosperity.
FRANCIS Joseph is the head of the
order OF the Golden Fleece. the old
est and most celebrated of all the or.
uers on chivalry. 1t was organized
by Phi1p the Good of Burgundy dur
Ing the crusades, and has included
among its members some of the most
famous warriors, statesmen and SOW
ereigns in history Originally the
number was limited to thirty-one. but
Charles V. Of Spain. when dean of
the chapter, with the sanction Of
Pope Leo X. increased the compile
ment to fifty, and Philip III. of the
House of Hapsburg in 1898 secured
a further increase to sixty-two. The
rules of the order require that the
life of the members should be de-
voted to the propagation of the Ro-
man Catholic faith, hence no Prot.
estant can be admitted without re-
nouncing the religion. King George
Nv. of England, after several urgent
requests. had the Golden Fleece be-
slowed upon him, but never took the
oath and never attended any of the
meetings of the chapter. Neither
the King of England nor the EN-.
peror of Russia. nor the Kaiser Of
Germany is a member for religious
reasons. The President of France
was elected recently, and the little
King of Spain. when he reaches his
eighteenth year, will be admitted on
the first vacancy.
