THE BALKY HORSE.
A Little Trick That, Ii Is Said, w4Il
start Him Every Time.

start Him Every Time.
For the benefit OF those who have
been caused great deal of anxiety by
balky horse, lost trains as well as
tempers and sometimes even ruined
the horse. the next time they have the
experience TO run across balky horse,
no matter how bad he is. let me tell
you how 10 start him ninety-nne times
out Of hundred.
or course IL may fail one time in n
hundred. When horse balks no mat
ter how badly he sulks or how ugly he
is, do not beat him. Don't throw sand
In his ears, don't use II rope on his
fore legs or even burn straw Lsdcr
him. Quietly go and pat him on the
head moment. Take n hammer or
even pick up n stone I'm the street,
tell the driver 10 sit still, take his lines.
hold them quietly while you lift up
either front foot. give each nail a light
tap and good smart tap on the frog,
drop the foot quickly and then chirp
TO him 10 GO In nincty-nine cases out
of hundred the horse will 90 right on
about his business, but the driver
must keep his lines taut and not pull
or Jerk him back.
If have tried this once, have tried
It 800 times. and every time | have
suggested 1t people have laughed and
even bet - and bottles Of wine that |
could not do It. SO far | have won ev-
cry bet. This may make you smile, but
a horse has more common sense than
most people are willing TO give him
credit for. The secret Of this little trick
is simply diversion. | am firm believ-
er that with kindness and proper treat
ment horse can be driven with a
string.-Horse ShOers' Journal.

Narrow Escape From Death.

Through the breaking of a scaffold at
the Reading Iron Works Tuesday af-
ternoon four workmen on the new build
ing narrowly escaped being killed
One of the last appurtenances of the
mill to receive its finishing touches is
the stack belonging to furnace No. in
the 16-inch mill This Tuesday was
being topped William B. Hauser and
George Byers, brick layers, and c. S.
Pursell and Benjamin Shepard, laborers,
being upon the scaffold.
The stack of No. furnace is one Of
those at the outer edge of the mill, so
that while the workmen on one side
were probably less than ten feet above
the roof on the other they were sup
ported at least fifty feet above the ground
with nothing to intercept fall.
About 80 o clock there was an Omin-
Gus sound of creaking timbers and al
most at the same moment the scaffold,
which was heavily loaded with brick
gave way beneath their feet and the
four men found themselves along with
mass of timbers and brick dropping
through space.
Fortunately they were all on the in
side of the scaffold and in their fall
thus were intercepted by the roof of the
mill They did not escape all injury,
however, the two brick layers, especial
ly, upon whom perfect shower of
bricks and timbers fell, We're quite
painfully bruised, although not serious
injured

A Barn Burned Down,

A barn on the farm of George Smith
on the road leading from Washington
vile to Turbotville was burned to the
ground yesterday morning. The ten
ant J. S. Claywell, with a lighted LIANT
ern entered the barn before daylight for
the purpose of feeding the cattle. Plac
ing his lantern on the barn floor the
farmer climbed into the NOW to throw
down hay. While thus engaged the
lantern exploded, the hay and straw in
stantly igniting
Mr.. Claywell fought desperately to
save the barn using his coat and some
phosphate bags to smother the flames
1t was all in vain, however, and in a
few minutes the entire building was in
flames. Nearly the entire contents of
the barn, including two cows and two
pigs, We're burned. The building was
partially covered with insurance.

As a Soldier Sees 1t.

William J. Longenberger, member
of Company A, 18th L. S. Infantry,
writes his mother in this city. He is
with detachment that is stationed in
Bulan, Sorsogon, and is having some
pretty tough experiences.
He is very tired, he says, of seeing
nothing bnt half civilized people if not
wholly savages, who with the exception
of small piece of cloth wear nothing
in the form of clothing. At the time of
writing, December %, they had been
hiking" for 90 days and We're still on
the go.
They shot number of the insurrectOs
including a leader of the bolo men, who
was badly wanted owing to the inhu
ence he exerted over his band, by whom
he was regarded with all veneration of
a god.
1t was not until after the leader was
shot that his identity was discovered
His brother was also captured and par
AIDED through the streets III order to
show the natives to what extent they
were in our power.
The native soldiers had been made to
believe that by wearing paper sanctif-
ed in some way by their superstitious
leader they could resist the American
bullets. Hence the poor savages expos
ed themselves to peril in all forms and
fell like flies before the American bull
lets.
The dead bodies, the letter says, lay
around on all sides unburied, in various
stages of decay, while the stencil which
had to be borne by the American soldi-
ers, was something intolerable. The
letter presents a horrible picture of the
butchery of war. When Filipino
dropped, it says, "our boys always shot
him seven or eight times, SO that he
was covered with blood from head to
foot.
