They Should Be Kept Wherever Horse
Are Regularly Housed.
"Goats are good things to keen
around the stables where the horsos
are housed" said an old dealer i''
horses, land the man who wants his
horse to remain healthy will make a
mistake if he does not keep few goats
around 1 do not propose to go into
an analysis of the reasons, but l am
in a position to state the fact, and ]
do it after many years of experience.
l have been handling horses for more
than a quarter of century and l have
had occasion to observe very closely
those things which tend to benefit the
horse Occasionally l have been with
out goats and nearly every time 1 have
been called upon to doctor one or more
of my horses for some complaint pc
culiar to this kind of animal When l
had goats around the stables to rub
up against the stalls and wallow
around generally sickness among my
horses was a rare thing.

THE PACIFIC CABLE

MY attention was called to the fact
good many years ago by man who
had spent the greater part of his life
in the horse business. I had just lost
couple of fine horses and was great
ly grieved over the loss. I had dealt
with them very carefully and, in fact,
had made pets out Of them. l hap
pened to meet my old friend and was
telling about my loss. DO you keep
any goats around your stables?' he ask
ed l told him 1 did not There Is
where you make a big mistake, he
said. Buy few goats and turn them
in the lot with your horses and let
them run together. I have tried 1t
much Of it at the time, but con-
cluded that would try it just for luck.
1t could do no harm. I bought me
some goats.
''Since that time have always kept
goats with my horses, and the health
of my horses has been matter of note
among those who are familiar with
my business. l do not pretend to say
just what it is about the goat which
something which acts as a great pro-
lection to the horse in the matter of
health. 1 have often heard that the
| odor of the goat, while offensive
| enough to a great many persons, was
very healthy thing even for members
of the human family. 1 guess it" is
the. odor Of the goat which benefits the
horse. 1 have often wanted to see a
chemical analysis of the goat odor, SO
! that might understand just what the
| active purifying principle was made
of. 1t is evidently good disinfectant
! Of some kind. Goats are good horse
doctors, and the man who wants his
4, horses to remain healthy and vigorous
should keep goats around the stable"

German naturalists are now studying
with much interest an animal which
was recently placed in the Geological
Garden at Berlin. 1t is an ant bear,
but not an ordinary one, being a speci-
men of an exceedingly rare variety.
Its habits are those of the common ant
bear, but in color and formation is diff
ferent from it in many respects: 1t is
said that there is no other specimen
of this variety in Europe, and it is not
thought likely that any other speci-
men will be found very soon, for the
one at Berlin was only trapped by
chance, and although several men have
searched closely through the district
where it was caught, they have not as
vet discovered the slightest trace of
any other specimen.

Their First Ice-Cream.

Seven hundred immigrants were
spending on Ellis Island their first Sun
day in the New World, and through
somebody's kindness ice-cream had
been added to the bill of fare This

to amount to puzzle. The New York

which it called forth. -. .....=

of her famous jewels, they bringing
$45O,OOO at auction. Her husband, the
late Earl of Dudley, who was insane,
had a passion for beautiful jewelry,
and at one time he had one of the finest
collections Of precious stones in the
world. He was immensely wealthy,
his income being about 100000 a
year. His son, the present earl, fell
heir to this vast estate, but squander
ed much of it in extravagant living.
Lady Dudley had been leader in Lon
don's exclusive society for many years,
and there were many brilliant social
functions at her home. When her son
married, her income Of 100000 was
cut down to a tenth Of that sum, not
nearly enough to maintain her in the
way she was accustomed to live. At
one time 1t was said that she was en-
gagged to marry DR.. Jameson, and there
is no doubt that the late Cecil Rhodes
once was a suitor for her hand.

In Cuba cabbages frequently weigh
as much as twenty pounds. All vege-
tables do well. Radishes may be eaten
from fourteen to eighteen days after
sowing, lettuce in five weeks after SOW

per year. Sweet potatoes are perpetu-

them off and plant the old vines, which
produce new crop in three months.
All sorts of fruits, horticultural and

threatened worse things, and have
hauled them into court time and
again with little result, except dl-
vorces. The Figgites say the Holy
Ghost watches over them and tells
them what to do and assert that the
whole world is not able to turn them
from what they regard as their PLAIN
duty They consider themselves to be
the chosen of the Lord, and condemn
all other persons and sects to everiast-
ing damnation. In spite OF the fact
that the law is continually after them,

as being the very acme of perfection.
The Figgs lived at Gretna some years
ago, and had money and good home.
What started them on this fanatically
religious turn Is not exactly known, but
it is a fact that suddenly both Figg ana
his wife, showed signs of the spirit"
and their house became the rendezvous
of many impressionable women who
developed into enthusiasts as great as
the Figgs themselves. There were peo-
pie in Gretna, however, who did not
think much of their doings, and booted
them out. A couple of years ago there
was considerable whitecapping and az

gathered up his female adherents and
fed to a swamp, where he built rough
shack, in which the crowd Still lives.
Strange to say, there are still found
women enough to keep the colony IN
state of healthy growth. They leave
good homes to go with Figg to his mis-
cradle shanty, which contains but four
rooms, two below and two upstairs,
where they sing and Shout and conduct
their fanaticaI ceremonies with less
regard for the proprieties than is called
for in a strict Interpretation Of the
rules of law and order. These four
rooms are crowded always, no men be-
ing among the enthusiasts except Figg
and his two grown sons.
The first principle of the Figg relig-
ion is regeneration by the Holy Ghost.
When that is accomplished, the whole

branches of the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia a few days ago
an important eyewitness of the acci-

witness just where the latter was
standing at the moment the plaintiff
was struck by the car. ~2
