His holdings in Arizona and in tho
State of Sonora, Mexico, amount to
about 100000 acres, including some

Didn't Bother Them.

During the campaign of 1892
Senator Vest spoke facing the
grand stand ON the Moberly fail
grounds. The management was
conducting horse races, and be-
tween the cheering of the winners
and for the laboring orator things
we're lively. At the close of par
ticularly exciting heat, during
which everybody howled himself
hoarse, Vest mopped his brow and,
turning to the tumultuous crowd
about him, remarked, with mild sar-
casm:
Gentlemen, perhaps I'd better
wait till the racing is over"
A big stalwart son of Missouri,
who was clinging to post and way
ing his hat frantically at the win

observation. Then his generosity
beamed.

&xfss Mfenderful Pictures That Have
Appeared on Stone.


Pliny. a well known writer OF
4bost The time Of Christ, mentions
having seen an agate the lines and
markings Of which formed per-
feet picture Of Apollo and the nine
muses.. Plinv says that the little
children recognized it on sight. In
This wonderful natural picture as
yell as the artificial drawings Apol-
10 was represented seated in the
midst Of the muses. harp in hand.
Majolus, another writer Of high
standing, saw an agate in the collec-
non Of jeweler at Venice which,
when polished, showed perfect pic
tnrc Of a shepherd with crook in
hand and cloak thrown loosely over
his shoulders.
In the Church of st. John, at Pi-
ssa, Italy, there is a piece of stone
heavily marked with red, blue and
yellow spar, the lines representing
an old man with heavy white beard,
with bell in his hand, seated be-
side small stream. To the wor-
shippers at st. Johns it is known as
the st. Anthony stone, the picture
upon it being perfect likeness OF
that saint, even to the minor details
of tunic and bell.
In 1905 some quarrymen in Italy
burst open a slab of marble both
sides of which contained an image
of st. John the Baptist covered
with the skin Of camel Every
thing was true to nature-a single
exception, the saint having been
provided with only one leg and foot.

Directly after the great Johns
town Hood ID. >. Wlngroye, superln-
tendent of the marble yard at the

slab of marble with lines and veins
which made perfect picture of the
fated city Of Johnstown and the

plainly marked, as are also the hills
and mountains surrounding the
town. Piles upon piles of ruins are
marked, with an occasional steeple

scene of awful destruction Taken

TROOPS FOR MANILA
DELAYED BY FIRE.

New York, Feb. 1.-The First and
Second Regiments of Infantry and the
Eighth and Thirteenth Batteries OF
field artillery We're to have sailed to-
day for Manila, Philippine Islands
The First Infantry sailed from
here, while the other infantry regi-
meIIt and the batteries were to sail
from San Francisco, but were de-
layed by fire which broke out in the
hold of the transport. In sending this
body of troops to the Philippines, the
War Department has not followed its
usual custom of withdrawing an
equal number from the Philippines TO
the United States. Explanations OF
the movement by the War Department
officials vary, but there is some rea-
son to believe that it is made in eX-
pectation of trouble in China, the
forerunner of which was probably the
recent affair in Shanghai The ad-
ministration is fearful of what may
happen in China and the possibilities
that this government may be forced
TO send troops for the protection of
American lives and property in China
is considered great. When these
troops arrive in Manila the govern
ment will have a larger force in that
city than at any time during the last
three years.

given up, as hopeless, when on the
very last day of the expedition in
1905, just when the party was about
TO return, the long looked for remains
were unearthed. These consisted of
the skull. backbone, limbs and other
parts of the skeleton Of the very stage
wanted.
The find has not been publicly an.
nounced before, and it will be some
time before the museum has ready its
exhibit showing every stage of horse
evolution, beginning when the ances-
tor of the horse Of today was about
the size Of an Irish terrier. The mu.
scum has already classified the fos-
sils of the horse previously found in
various localities in the western part

the greatest importance, not only be.
cause it will make these records more
complete, hut also because it may

mains and his conclusions are awaited
