His Good Horse. Carrambo,
 Falls in a Hidden We'll.

Antonio Guippese yawned yesterday as he lay on his back in q sun-sprin- kled field near the Washington Ferry Road, He, lit his pipe. He called his wife and his children three, and his good, if bony, steed Carrambo. Anto- nio had decided to move to some other place than the sun-sprinkled field
 But Antonio, did not move. Neither did his wife nor his children three, nor will his good, ii bony, steed Car rambo ever again move, however slow. Listen and you shall know why.
 Antonio Guippese belongs to that class of people known to the world as gypsies. He is of that much misrepre- sented people who are used principally to frighten children and who would not frighten the most timid of mice. An tonic Guippese has never kidnapped a child. Neither has his wife nor his children three, and his good, if bony, steed Carrambo has never had more than limited experience in the gentle art of Patricius Grove.
 Antonio trades horses. All horses. he will trade. save his good. if bony, steed Carrambo. and nobody would have Carrambo. His wife discloses the future more or less accurately to TO- mantle young people and silly old peo- pie at a dollar throw. Their children three do nothing. Happy children and the good, if bony, steed Carrambo hauled them from place to place.
 For the past few weeks Antonio, his wife, his children three and his good, if bony, steed Carrambo have hiber- mated on a piece of sward right unto the Washington Ferry Road. There Antonio disposed of horsefesh with more or less profit, his wife told TO- mantle young people and silly old peo- pie that they would be married and get rich, while the children sported on the greensward and the good, if bony, steed Carrambo ate part of said sward.
 Sheckles, aye. and sesterces, came into the privy purse of Antonio and his wife and the children, and the good, if bony, steed Carrambo fattened and were muchly pleased.
 But Antonio was restless. It was the curse put upon his race, and he decided to move.
 Now, once upon a time, on the very spot where Antonio and Mrs. Antonio and the children three, and the good, if bony, steed Carrambo rested, there was a house and in the rear or that house was d we'll. thin layer of brush laid over the dried well, and An ton.o and Mrs. Antonio and the chill dren and the good, if bony, steed Car rambo knew not of the presence of it.
 Antonio gave the orders for an ad- vance on Montgomery. The wagon was packed. The good, if bony. steed Carrambo was hitched to the wagon. Antonio seized the lines and Mrs. An tonic seized the children three.
 "Giddap," quoth Antonio, and the faithful and good, if bony, steed Car rambo forthwith and immediately did giddap. Then suddenly. when the wagon reached the unknown we'll, Car rambo ceased to giddap. With a sud- denness that would have done credit to the disappearance of the bankroll of Cassie Chadwick, the good, If bony, steed Carrambo disappeared and with him disappeared Antonio, his wife and children three. The back end of the wagon only protruded from the face of the earth.
 Slowly Antonio emerged. Then emerged Mrs. Antonio, and with her emerged the children three. The good, if bony, steed Carrambo has not yet emerged.
 Then indeed Antonio began to speak
