Two white men have b cen con.
victed in Pickens county of
stealing chickens. When white
men undertake to usurp this
particular industry from Cutie,
they deserve to have the ex-

them. Of all the mean things
that white boys can be guilty Of
it is stealing peaches and chick

Annoyed by Statement That Farm
Said 10 Belong TO Him HaA
Been Sold for Taxes.

A fine hundred-acre farm near Nyack.
standing in the name of Ruseel' Sage.
was sold at auction the other day be~
cause Mr.. Sage refused Ia pay the
taxes. The amount due was only $50.
and the farm Is worth $1,000. The sale
took place at New City, the Rockland
county seat, and was made by County
Treasurer Randolph. When the crowd
learned that Russell Sage was the own
er and that he was letting the farm go
for $3.50 not bidder opened his mouth.
They suspected that the title must be
full OF holes or that there was some
other hidden defect about the place.
else why should the sagacious financier
let property worth $1,000 go for $780,
Vainly Mr.. Randolph tried to coax
bid out OF the crowd. and finally he
was forced to buy 1t In for the county
for $3.50.
Mr.. Sage was sesR at night at his
home on Fifth avenue. II always pay
my taxes" said Mr.. Sage. "That could
not have been any land owned by me.
Mr.. Sage turned away as II his buss-
ness sagscity had been motally Ia
suited.

GREAT SCARCITY OF HORSES.
Not Equal to the country's
Growing Demand.

We are horse poor-not as some
people are land poor. because they
have too much--but horse poor be-
cause we haven't enough horses,
After the civil war we found our
selves short Of horses Of the bigger
types and began importing them for
breeding purposes. We imported
them to good purpose and in very
large numbers and greatly improved
the quality Of our stock. When cleo
tricity began to haul street cars the
market for the commoner kinds of
horses fell off and farmers didn't
breed so many. When the automo-
biles began to appear and were her
aided as machines that must super
sede the use of carriage horses the
breeders of the Better class OF horses
took fright.
For years after 1893, too, thousands
of people who wanted horses could
not afford them. But with the return
of prosperity the demand for good
horses began to grow again and
Harper's Weekly. But it takes about
five years to raise horse that is
fit for the market and the breeders
got behind. The demand has outrun
the supply. The price Of good horses
has increased very greatly and i'm
ported stations are said to be worth
nearly ten times what they were ten
A Al
took great number Of horses out
of the country. including many
worthless ones, but the business of
horse-breeding has revived so much
that we shall soon have again rea-
sonably full supply.
Enterprising farmers nowadays
breed good horses. 1t pays, and
breeding poor horses doesn't pay.
We import horses from Europe for
breeding purposes and from Canada
for use, but of late we have exported
far more than we have imported and
are likely to keep on doing so. The
annual horse show in New York,
which seems on it's surface to be
frivolous spectacle, really holds
highly important relation to one OF
the great Industries OF the country.
II is the parent Of all the American
horse shows and. with them, con
stantly measures, stimulates and di-
rects the country's progress in the
breeding Of fine horses. There are
about 13,50o,00o horses in our land,
of an estimated value of S604 900 900.
The improvement of that much stock
Is a pretty important matter, espe-
cially in these days, when Europe is
horse poor. too. and ready to take
from us any surplus Of good horses
that we may come to have.

by Important joint naval action on the
part OF tho powers Communications arc

sia, but IL joint demonstration is de-
termined upon the fleets OF France and
Austria will certainly cooperate. and It
is probable that the fleets OF all the other
European powers having Turkish inter-
ests. except, possibly Germany, which
throughout has not favored taking ener-
gctic steps against Turkey, Will take part
In the demonstration
In the meantime the Russian squadron
will not proceed to Constantlnople. as
has been reported, but Will rendezvous
