Ripley to himself. II am sure that it

But there was trifing error in his

That error was due to the inSGniti-

few minutes and thought about it.

Grass Tint "Tfres."

In some parts of New Mexico there
grows grass which produces som
niferous effect on the animals that
craze upon it. Horses. after eating the
grass, in nearly all cases sleep stand
ing, while cows and sheep almost in
variably lie down.
1t has occasionally happened that
travellers have stopped to allow horses
to feed in places where the grass
grows pretty thickly and the animals
have had time to eat n considerable
quantity before its effects manifested
themselves.
In such cases horses have gone to
sleep on the road and it is hard to
arouse them. The effect of the grass
passes off in an hour or two, and no
bad results have ever been noticed on
account of it. Cattle on the ranches
frequently come upon patches Of this
grass. where they feed for perhaps half
an hour and then fall asleep for an
hour or more, when they wake up and
start feeding again. The programme
is repea ted perhaps a dozen times un-
til thirst obliges them to go to water.
Whether, like the poppy, the grass
contains opium, or whether Its sleep
producing property is due to some
other substance is not known.

New Jersey's stone Roads.

State Road Supervisor Budd in his
annual report to Governor Murphy
shows that 796 miles Of stone roads
have been built in New Jersey during
the last year. 1t is possible to travel
on smooth, hard roads from Jersey
City to Atlantic City. The state has ap-

to request aid of deputy sheriff in rum
ming down the hunters, and this was
granted.
Bright and early Saturday morning
deputy sheriff appeared on the farm. He
was provided with two well bred horses.
a shot gun and some shells and started
fore he heard shooting at the extreme
western portion of the farm. He hurried
his horse ever that way. but by the time
he arrived there the hunters had disap-
peared and others on the north side be-
! gan to shoot Suffice to say two days
wore out the two horses and the deputy
sheriff, who however, did not return to
| the city empty handed. He placed under
arrest ]. F. Kessler agent for the K. e:
| N. at Menager Junction, and his son, Fred
Kessler, and took shOtgunS away from
them. He also arrested W. M Drennon,
a tenant on another portion of the Harvey
farm, who was looking for some geese
/ brought to the city, but were told to hold
| themselves in readiness for trip to the
| city as soon as state warrants could be
sworn out for them
