In the castle of Nuremberg, in south
Germany, is shown mark said to be
that of horses hoof, on the top OF
the outer wall, and the following story
is told to account for its presence:
Some 200 years ago there was con-
slant war between the Count of Calm
gen and the citizens of Nuremberg.
and after numerous encounters the
count had at last the misfortune to
fall into the hands of his enemies ane
was at once imprisoned in one of the
gloomy dungeons of Nuremberg cas-
tie. This was bad enough, but worse
was to follow, for on the meeting of
the magistrates the young count was
sentenced to be beheaded, and the sen
tence was to be carried out on the fol-
lowing day. First of all, however, ac-
cording to an old Nuremberg custom.
the condemned man was allowed to
have a last request granted, whatever
that request might be.
Let me" said the count, "once mora
mount my faithful charger and ride
him round the courtyard of the cas-
tle"
No sooner said than done. The
beautiful black steed that had so often
carried his master to victory was sad
died, and horse and master met once
more under the open sky. The count
patted the horses arched neck and
leaped into the saddle. The horse be
gan to prance and kick up his heels, as

All About on the Same Level.

There is essentially no difference
between the Pennsylvania railroad
chief clerk who gathered in thousands
of dollars from coal companies as a
tip or price for steering the railroad
company's orders in their direction
and the coachman who pockets an oc-
casioEal dollar in the placing of orders
for oats or lie steward who profits in
buying meats and other table require
ments. And no better than this chief
clerk are those higher Pei nsylvania
officials who accepted gifts of stock IN
various companies and then favored
them in the distribution Of cars. They
are all of the purchasable class, which

mentioned the extravaganza of buying

ed for notes from 10 to 40 CENTS, and two

An appropriation of $50, 900 is asked
