HORSE LEFT ON THE DOCK.
Was Crippled and no One. Seemed to Own It
Wanted 1t Killed.

A few days ago John Engelbrecht,
of Princess Bay. purchased a horse in
New York. The animal was sent
from New York by the steamer Mary
Patten, and arrived in Tottenville
Monday night in such crippled con-
dition that it was necessary for the
steamboat crew to carry it off the boat
to the dock on stretcher.
Mr.. Engelbrecht was notified that
the horse had arrived, and when he
came to Tottenville, and found the
horse lying nearly dead on the dock
he refused to receive it. Some one
sent word to DR.. Juhl, the veterinary
surgeon, who came to Tottenville and,
after doing all he could for the animal,
telephoned to the dealers in New York
about the condition of the horse.
They said they were sorry but did not
see what they could do about it, In
the meantime another citizen had sent
word to s. P. O. A. agent, Mr.. Elliot.
Of Stapleton, who came down and
tried to get permit to put the suffer-
ing animal out of his misery. Find
ing that he was unable to do so, he
went away. At O'clock last night
the horse was still alive, but suffering
much.

Panama Senators Want Hay-Herran
Treaty Approved.
PANAMA, June 3.-Jose ANgustin
Arrange, the senior senator for Pan
anna; Mandel Amador Guerrero, Man.
uel Espinosa, Batista FREDERICK Boyd
and other prominent men representa-
tive of all the interests of the isthmus
have sent the following cablegram to
President Marroquin at Bogota:
"Colombians resident and born in the
isthmus, without distinction of polit-
ical party, consider of vital Importance
the approval of the -Herran treaty,
which consults present and future In
terests and aspirations.
The nonapproval of the treaty when
endeavors are being made to adopt the
Nicaraguan route is equivalent to de-
cree of definitiye ruin to the isthmus,
causing irreparable evil and giving or
igin to antipatriotic sentiments"
X seems that the people of the 18TH
mus have at last awakened to the fact
that unless powerful influences are ex-
erted the enemies of the canal will
win the battle.

MARKETS FOR FUTURES

The Secret of Tasteful Dressing

The ability to select harmonious shades with an unerring instinct for proper eff feet Is largely a matter of temperament, affected more or less by climatic inf1u- ences. Take the people in semitropical re- gions. The most fastidious artists have no fault to find with the color relation between apparel and background It Is said, for instance, that no two Moors will walk together on the street if the colors of their robes are inharmonious, for the Moor has an instnctive sense of color. The tints in the gown of the merchant are in perfect harmony with the prevail ing tones of his wares. An Englishman would probably think he was straining a point if he took time to regulate the color of his attire by the prevailing tones of his office or of the street in which he walks.
 The fact is, the Oriental does not take time either to cultivate taste for artistic effects or to put in practice prescribed rules for color effcts. With him 1t is a matter of temperament. The colors of the Scotch tartan, while very effective in the soft, misty atmosphere of Scotland, look crude and are consequently out of place in the clear air of France or Italy. In this country there is an epidemic of color riots; at least an aesthetic foreigner pronounces this lack of harmony in color Q disease.
