Not without Distinction.

A note of family pride was struck
in the conversation between three small
Reading boys the other day. The parts
played by their respective grandfathers
in the civil war were being depicted by
two of the boys in vivid colors. The
career of each, 1t seemed, had been
halted by confinement in southern pris-
ons, and it was ON the latter fact that
the lads laid particular stress. The
third youth, unable to match these re-
citals with any military achievement of
his own forefathers, preserved an envi-
GUS silence for awhile and then not to
be outdone, said disparagingly:
why, that's not so much. My I'm

STUPIDITY OF SHEEP.
The Way These Exasperatfng1y
Foolish Animals Court Dealt.

A sheep herder gives some of his ex-
perience in handling sheep on the west
ern ranges in the following:
We have to watch them every min
ute, and il vigilance is relaxed for an
instant the entire flock is likely to COM
NIT suicide. In handling most animals
some degree of self help or intelligence
can be relied on TO aid the owner in
saving their lives, but sheep seem TO
set deliberately to work to kill them
selves
II caught in a storm on the plains,
they will drift before the wind and die
of cold and exposure rather than move
100 yards to windward to obtain shell
ter in their corral To drive sheen
against the wind is absolutely impos-
sible. | once lost over 1000 head be-
raj 200 feet away.
In the corral they are still more fool
ish. Ii storm comes up, they all
move down wind until stopped by
the fence. Then commences the pro-
ceeding so much dreaded by sheepmen,
known as ''piling" The sheep will
climb over one another's backs until
they are heaped up ten feet high. OF
course all those ON the bottom are
smothered. Not one has sense enough
TO seek shelter under the lee of the
fence, as horse or dog would do.
Again, if a sheep gets into quick
sand its fate teaches nothing to those
that come Immediately after, but the
whole flock will follow the leader to
destruction. No more exasperatingly
stupid animal than a sheep walks.

Ii Is worthy of remark that but for
the brightness of the sky the stars
could be seen in daylight Even as
matters stand, some of the brighter Of
them have been seen after sunrise by
explorers ON high mountains, where
the air is very clear and the sky dark
blue. n we could go above the atmos-
phere the sky would appear perfectly
black, and stars would be visible right
close up TO the sun. Astronomers OBJ
serve bright stars in daytime by using
long focus telescopes, the dark tubes

noticed stars passing overhead, the side
light being reduced by the great depths
of the wells.-T. J. J. See in Atlantic.

A RABBIT CAT.
The Manx TaiIIess Feline Was Once
Seacoast Freak.

n seacoast Freak.
1t seems probable that the tailless
Manx cats originally came from Corn
wall. They managed to survive longer
as a distinct breed in the Isle of Man
than in Cornwall, the predominance of
the common tailed cat being of course
aided in the latter district by the fact
that. although remote, it is part of the
mainland of England, whereas new
cats could be carried to the Isle of
Man only by sea. The Manx cat which
first attracted modern attention was Il
very different animal from the vari-
ously colored specimens which now
take prizes at cat shows 1t was al
ways of the color of hare and had
fur like hare.
Like hare, too, it always moved its
hind legs together. Its chief food was
crabs caught on the beach, and when
transported inland from the seacoasts
It very seldom, II ever, survived long.
No cat of this kind has been seen for
there are plenty of tailess cats, its
crossed descendants, to be purchased
there. Wherever it originally came
from, the Cornish or Manx cat was
more nearly n separate species than
any kind of show eat now existing.
1t was a seacoast animal. with fur,
color, absence of tail and method of
locomotion obviously adapted by the
Inheritance of ages TO its habit of
catching crabs and other small life be-

ACTING WITHOUT ORDERS.
General Grants Tribute to General

says that at dinner where General
Grant and other distinguished men
were present Commodore Alden re-
marked that there was nothing he dis
liked more than n subordinate who al
ways obeyed orders what is that
you are saying, commodore?" said Pres
ident Grant across the table. The COM
modore repeated what he had said.
There is Il good deal of truth in what
you say" said General Grant. Zone of
the virtues of General Sheridan was
that he knew when to act without or
ders. Just before the surrender of Lee,
General Sheridan captured some dis
patches, from which he learned that
Lee had ordered his supplies to n Ger
tain place. | was ON the other side of
the river, where he could get no COM
munication from me until the next
morning. General Sheridan pushed on
at once without orders, got to the place
fifteen minutes before the enemy and
captured the supplies. After the sur
render was concluded the first thing
General Lee asked me for was rations
for his men. l issued to them the same
provisions which Sheridan had cap
tured. Now, IL Sheridan, as most men
would have done had waited for orders
from me Lee would have got off" Sen
ator Hoar adds this comment: Il lis

AMES MIST STAND TRIAL.
Minneapolis Judge Refuses to NoIIe
indictments.

Minneapolis, Sept. 16.-In language
which, under it's dignified and careful
framing, conveys a rebuke to County
Attorney Boardman Judge Harrison Of
the Hennepin county district bench
has denied the county attorneys mo-
ton for dismissal Of the ten cases
now pending against former Mayor
AmeS.
County Attorney Boardman made
his motion on the grounds that con-
viction would be impossible, an at
tempt at it would involve the city in
more unnecessary expense and would
give "feverish and offensive advertis-
ing to our city"
TO this Judge Harrison replies that
while ex-Mayor Ames escaped once it
was on technicality discovered by
the supreme court and that that body
failed to intimate that there was any
doubt as to ex-Mayor Ames' guilt.
He thinks the fornres mayors guilt
or innocence should be determined by
a jury. The cases have been set for
