What we are after Is an ideal
harness horse, said Prof. Carlyle
We do not want roadster, a gen
tleman driving horse or a speed
way horse, fm there Is = plentiful
supply Of that Kind among the
standard bred trotters. But there
Is scarcity Of horses suitable for a
victoria, broaghsm or other heavy
carriage. They might be called a
heavy harness driving horse. !
notice that some papers have spoken
of the horse we. are seeking as an
American coacher II is not a
coscher we want. We do not have
heavy coaches in this country The
horse We want must be able to make
from ten 10 twenty mikes into the
country and back without difficulty
and maintain y speed Of from ten to
twelve miles an hour He must
have plenty Of style, a good neck
plenty Of quality and must look well
when standing still in front of dry

have round, sull bodies, well mus

special CORRESPONDENCE.

Ozona, Tex. Sept. 16, 'O4.
Your readers have all heard of
the fine rains that have fallen
throughout the country around
San Angelo, but few have the
least idea what a transformation
they have made in the appearance
of mother earth and in the hearts
of men. But few days ago the
country was drying up, vegetation
was dead or dying, and many men
were on the point of despair.
About Eldorado especially and
throughout this section there had
been no rain of any consequence
for year. Many put IN a cotton
crop upon which their hopes of
prosperity was built, only soon to
come to naught. / have seen one
field Of % acres that will not
make three bales.
This cotton was planted by the
small ranchman with the hope of
helping out his limited income,
due to low prices of cattle, and
the failure was serious one. /
have heard of one such who gave
up hope and sold good place for
less than he paid for this past
years of labor going for nothing.
The rain came a few days after.
Had ne held on little longer the
sacrifice would have been pre-
vented. There is great deal in
"holding Cd. But now every
body is in good humor for there
is grass for the winter and that
means a saving of the cattle.
OF course the rains have made
the roads impossible in places.
Speaking of roads, why don't our
commissioners do something with
them? What magnificent macad-
amized roads this country could
have at a nominal cost if the
abundance of rock along them
were only used judiciouslY There

New York.

New York. April 15.-Thc liability of
Il transportation company for failure

chandise was affirmed, today. in de-
tision handed down by the appellate

owner of the Starin Transportation Co,
to recover damages for failure to de
liver in good condition a large guam
tity of ncat shipped by their line on
the 9th of October last to New Haven.
The company contested liability on
the ground that i'll accepting goods for
transportation the receipts for the
goods distinctly diSclaimed any liability
for any damage caused by the elements
and said that Il storm prevented the
steamer from leaving the port and
therefore the company was not liable
The plaintiffs contention that. not
wfthStanding the receipts, the defend
ant was guilty of negligence in not
shipping the goods to New Haven by
some other route or in caring for them
50 they would not be permitted to be
spoiled was upheld by the lower court
and the decision was affirmed by the
supreme court when taken to that tri-
bunal upon appeal by the defendant.

Ions, who murdered Lake kinsey and
his daughter Fannie, at Water Valley,
has made confession. His statement
regarding the death of the young wo-

sensational. lie says that after he
killed her father in the field he went
to the house where the girl was and
told her of his deed. At first the two
planned to run away and be married,
brt the girl changed her mind and
asked him to kill her, which he says
he refused at first to do. Then she
tried to get the pistol away from him.
He told her to step off few PAGES
and turn her back. which she did. He
then shot and killed her. Gallons will
be tried at the June term Of court.
