Horses-Only about 125 head of horses arrived
is about an average supply. Nearly all kinds
of horses were represented. but as usual for
some time past most of the consgnments We're
the heavy harness class. The quality generally
was fairly satisfactory. but the proportion OF
good kinds was not above the average recently.
There a very fair attendance of BUYERS. but
evidently there were not many important orders,
and on account OF unfavorable markets else
where the demand slow and lifeless. 1t re-
ouired more less time to consummate sales.
and prices in general way We're reported SO
TO SIS per head lower than week ago. There
were a few extra good big heavy horses that sold
around sl75d200, but good chunks sold from sl2s
to $50, and less desirable workers at si5d1O0.
There were hardly enough light harness horses
to show the true condition OF the market but
sales usually represented about the same change
in prices as other grades. The sale of Western
range horses this week was hardly up TO expec-
tations. Young stock. such as have sold here
tofore to the best advantage, were the most neg
ected and did not sell up TO former prices. The
matured horses and sucking colts were about
steady Sales ranged from $l3 to $50 per head,
and most of the offerings sold from $40 to $40
per head.

state, but innumerable thousands are

THIS RECTOR TOO FRANK.
Writes In Church Register what He
Thinks of the Members of tho
CONGREGATION.

A remarkable discovery has just
been made by the congregation at
ST. Philips Episcopal church, (colored,)
which threatens TO stir up serious
trouble. The rector of the church IS
Rev. Maxine +. Duty, West Indian.
Some Of the female members of the
congregation investigated the parish
register during the rector's absence,
and found that he had recorded his
personal opinion OF the various mem
bers OF his congregation on the roll
opposite the name OF each. One mem
Der was described in a marginal note
as ''cloud without water" but this was
the poetry of It. The writer, 1t is said,
came down to bare prose with such
descriptive adjectives and sentences
as "foxy," "self-conceited," tending
toward worldliness" Others were
spoken Of more tersely, rs "inebriate,"
"ionnrent" "hibber." "unanr sn--.-
cion, topper" 'unreliable,' 'ques-
tionable," simple" poor woman"
One, at least, came under the sweep
ing characterization mo good"
The congregation is exceedingly dis
pleased, and will appeal to the bishop.

WILL MAKE STUDY OF CRIME.
Russian Institute Proposed to Throw
More Light on Criminals
and Crime.

The Russian ministers Of the inte-
rior and Of public instruction have APP
propriated $3.50, 900 to be expended on
criminalist institute and for salaries
Of professors Of criminology in various
universities.
There are two warning schools Of
criminologists in Russia. One is com
posed OF disciples Of Prof. Listz, who
teaches that crime is the result of So
cial circumstances. The other is made
up Of those who believe in Lambroso's
theory that crime is due to physical pc
culiarities.
Specially selected criminals will be
placed at the disposal Of representa-
tiyes Of both schools. 1.-THE institute in
st. Petersburg professors will illus
trate their lectures to students with
living criminals. These "horrible ex-
amples" will be freed from the punt
tive regime and placed wholly under
the control Of the professors.

FOG SIGNALS AT SEA.
How Ship Captains Are Guided by
the Sirens, or Horns, Through
the Channels.

A large proportion of the disasters
at sea are due to fog, and any method
by which the whereabouts of vessel
can be ascertained in thick weathe r
must be regarded as a great boon. A
system is now under trial at Fame
Point, on the Gulf Of st. Lawrence, a
place where fogs occur frequently
says Chambers Journal. To under
stand the nature of the new fog-signal,
let US suppose that at certain place
there are four powerful fog-horns,
spread out fanwise, so that each points
in a different direction. Each has its
distinctive speech, SO many blasts,
long or short sounding every minute
or so. These sirens can be heard, I'M
der favorable conditions, at distance
ship, when it comes into the zone of
sound, will hear all the sirens; but one
will be much palmer than the other
three, for the vessel will be within its
particular arc of sound. In a short
time, as the ship moves onward, it will
come within the influence of the next
siren, and so on. AS the captain of the
ship possesses the key to each set of
signals, he soon notes which is the
siren whose sound-waves are most
distinctly audible; and, as he knows
the exact direction in which it points,
he can get very good idea of the po-
sition of his ship.

AVARICE IS HEALTHY.
Keeps One Cool, Encourages Indus
try, AbstemiOusne and
Steadiness.

"The passions effect on the health
is not sufficiently regarded" says a
physician in the Philadelphia Record
The passion which is best for the
health is avarice. il keeps one cool
encourages regular and industrious
habits, leads to abstemiousness and
makes against all excess. And hence
the avaricious, the misers, live to a
great age. The misers of history were
all noted for their longevity. Rage is
very bad for one. The passion causes
an irregular, intermittent beating OF
the heart, and the intermittency in
time may become chronic. Hatred
creates fever. If we hate we grow
lean. This hot passion eats us like a
flame. Fear Is bad for the nerves, the
heart and the brain, and, therefore
we should never permit ourselves to
be afraid. But the strangest effects OF
all have been caused by the passion OF
grief The medical books record
cases where, coming suddenly, in a
violent shock, it has caused loss OF
blood from the lungs in one person
paralysis of the tongue in another, and
a failure of sight, or temporary blind
ness in third"

GIRLS ATE BIRD FOOD.
The LudIcrOus Mistake Made by TIVE
Prim English Young Women
In Paris.

Two English girls had ventured into
one OF the bonbongeries, or bakeries
which in Paris are so attractive that
they are frequented in preference to
a cafe by persons In search OF light
luncheon.
The French saltwater fountain,
with its bewildering assortment OF
strange sirups, caught their fancy, but
as they had very few French words
in their vocabulary they commended
themselves with ordering milk, relates
a Paris paper.
On the counters were all kinds of
the most misunderstanding cookies, but
the girls were quite at a loss as to
what they were called, and it looked
as if they would have to go hungry,
when one of them thought of the ex-
pedient Of helping herself. After q
careful inspection, she picked out a
generous supply of what appeared to
be the lightest-looBing bread imagin-
able.
The attendant offered to wrap it up,
for the stuff selected was bird food,
and was greatly surprised when the
two ladies waved her aside and started
in to make luncheon of it.
However unpalatable it must have
been, the frugal British maids seemed
10 think it sin to waste it, for they
bravely ate it apd went out firmly
convinced that French cooking was a
delusion and a snare, while the little
waitress merely shrugged her pretty
shoulders and exclaimed:
"Oh, but those English are eccen-
tric!"

WANT A UNIVERSITY
Porto Ricans Are Seeking Higher Ed
ucation for Their Island.
Propo.itton Made to Establish First
Class InstitutiOn-Americ 10
He Given Chance to Aid In
Great Work Financially.

DR.. Samuel McCune Lindsay, of Phil
adelphia. commissioner of education
| for Porto Rico, has introduced IN the
| executive council of Porto Rico bill
to establish the university Of Porto
Rico. The government q the unlVer-
sitv is vested in board of trustees,
composed of the governor as honorary
president, the commissioner OF edu-
cation as its president, the attorney
general, the secretary and the treas
urer, ex oflicio and four members to be
appointed by the governor.
The departments provided for are
normal department, agricultural and
mechanical, liberal arts, medicine, law
and architecture. The institution vii!
be for both sexes.
The treasurer of Porto Rico is re-
quired to establish university fund,
into which shall be paid escheated in
heritances, a per cent. OF all fines I'M
posed by the district courts, royalties
from all franchises granted by the
executive council, unexpended bal
ances at the end Of any year and 20per
cent Of the sale Of all public lands.
A university here would do more to
extend the sphere Of American influ-
ence throughout the West Indies and
the countries Of South America and to
equip men and women for the impor-
tant work of teaching and leadership
in professional life and in the govern
mental work In Porto Rico than any
other gift the American people could
make. Here is n unique opportunity
for an American philanthropist to
render a patriotic service Of the high
est order. 1t is hard to conceive of
situation, or, better STILL OF an oppor-
tunity, where the expenditure of from
100000 TO $5O00,00O for education
could be used with such far-reaching
results.
If the bill becomes a law an effort
Will be made TO raise money for the
institution in the United States.

SCOrn-W HEATH

A new grain, known as corn-wheat,
is being grown in eastern Washington.
1t has the nature of both corn and
wheat, possessing the fattening quail
ties of corn and the corn flavor. In
appearance it resembles wheat. Its
grains are twice as large as those OF
ordinary wheat. 1t yields GO to 100
bushels an acre, and seems to solve
the problem of fattening hogs in the
Pacific northwest, as corn is not sue
cessfully raised in that country.
