a social function given at the home OF
Mrs. John S. Elliott Of that city in
honor OF Miss Elliott Todhun'er OF
Lexington. The Advertiser says;
1.-THE entertainment was unique in
that the guest of honor provided the
entire program. She was MISS Elliott
Todhunter, a talented and accomplish
ed young lady OF Lexington, who has
been the guest of Mrs. Elliott several
times in the past few years. In
addition to her innate graces, Miss
Todhunter is an elecutionist OF rare
attainments, having completed a course
in the Chicago university. Her talent
IN this direction is exercised only for
the entertainment of her friends and
as q diversion in which she herself
finds much pleasure.

SABLE ISLAND WILD HORSES
Ferocious Equines Seem to Be Only
Inhabitants of This Almost

Sable island, which lies about

The drOves of wild horses, or pO-

WANDERlNos OF ANIMALS.
Rats the Most MISUNDERSTANDING
Race with Death-Journey
on Suicide Trips.

The fable of the country mouse
and the town mouse has its foun-
dation in fact. Mice occasionally
migrate in large numbers when
food grows scarce, and travel con-
siderable distances to fresh
houses. Farmers in a part Of
Perthshire had a good reason to
become aware of this fact when,
a couple of years ago, vast swarms
Of the mice invaded their corn
fields at haraYest time, says Lon
don Answers.
But the mouse only travels
when it has to. The rat, on the
contrary, seems to take a yearly
outing, in very much the same
fashion as do human beings. Rats
are the most migratory crea-
lures in the world. Whole troops
Of rats leave the towns at the end
of summer and spend a month or
two in the country, apparently in
order to enjoy the change of food
which the country affords at that
thine of the year in the way Of
fresh fruit and grain. Before the
cold weather sets in they are all
back in their old quarters.
Renders migrate with the
same regularity as swallows.
They move south when the winter
sets in, but as soon as ever the
snow begins to melt they travel
steadily north, sometimes for as
much as a thousand miles.
70 end a holiday by deliberate
suicide is so strange a phenom-
enon that for a long time natural
lists looked upon the stories of the
migration or the Jennings as an
improbable fiction. Yet the facts
are beyond dispute. Al irregular
intervals these rat-like creatures
start for their homes in the fast.
nesses of northern Scandinavia
In huge drOves, numbering tens of
thousands, and travel steadily
southwark. Death pursues them
in a hundred forms. Hawks and
other birds of prey hover above
them. Foxes, wolves and man
decimate them. Thousands are
drowned in rivers. Yet the rest
struggle on until they reach the
sea. They do not stop. They
plunge in, swim out and struggle
on, until at last their strength
fails and they drown. Not one
ever returns from this Journey OF
death.

The testimony Of the presidents OF
the life insurance companies in re-
gard to campaign contributions is
mere hypocritical pretense If they
had contributed to defeat Bryan and
Organism because, as they allege, free
silver was such a threat against the
welfare of the nation, what was their
purpose in contributing to the defeat
Of Parker, who was so pronounced an
enemy to free silver that he would
not accept a democratic nomination
without a distinct understanding
with his party on that subject? 1t
is very notable that the contributions
were always to the republican party;
and it is only fair to assume that they
made these contributions with a very
clear understanding that these trans
actions were worth their while. The
showing is quite as bad for the repub-
lican party as for the insurance com
panies' presidents.

Alfalfa VS.. Corn.

One acre Of alfalfa will pasture ten
