INDUSTRY FOR SOUTH AFRICA.
May Become Horse Producing Coun.
try of the World

South Africa is fo"eseen as achiev-
ing its destiny by becoming one of
the great horse producing countries
of the world. At the present time
the man who would dabble in horse
flesh needs both experience and
courage. The Kaffirs provide nine.
tenths of the horses sold When
dealer arrives in native territory
he sends round word that he has come
to purchase horses and the natives
roll up with all sorts and descriptions
of the equine tribe, which for the
most part are of no earthly use. The
man picks out an animal and the own
er names an exorbitant price, which
he never hopes to receive, the dealer
offering a sum which no sane man
could accept. But eventually a price
is agreed upon and the owner receives
a written order for the amount, which
he redeems in the evening by coming
to the dealers hotel and receiving
cash. By easy stages a descent Is
made on the next purchasing site and
by degrees a decent sized troupe is
got together. When these arrive at
their final destination their original
owners would not recognize them
They have been clipped on the way
down, had few condition powders
and had a general cleaning.

FIGHTING IN THE BALKANS.
insurgents Make Effective Usa of
Terrible Hand Grenade,


Reginald Wyon in his recently pub
lished book on THE Balkans from
Within" writes from the interior of a
blockhouse on the Turoc-B Bulgarian
frontier: I'VE are shown captured
bombs, heavy cylinders used for blow
ing up buildings and the dreaded hand
grenade, whose short fuse is calmly
lighted by a burning cigarette and
hurled among the attacking Turks. A
man must indeed have nerves of iron
to do this deed Picture a devoted
handful of men surrounded by an over
whelming force of Turks, slowly but
surely drawing nearer. Now they are
hundred yards away. fifty yeards-
luckily they shoot bly-but 1t
Is too far to put the weight with eff
feet.
"They must wait, though here and
there a bullet fired at random thins
out the little band. A rush--now. See!
One cody lights the fuse and quickly
hurls it at the foe. He must make no
mistake, his aim must be correct and
his arm strong. A slip at the moment
of throwing means his and his COM
rades's lives instead of the Turks, for
the fuse is very short. But he has
thrown it well; the Turks see it COM
ing and halt in blind fear.
"a deafening crash screams and
yells of anguish, and the Turks break
and run, shot down by the triumphant
insurgents. Down into the valleys they
fly, to the nearest village, where their
officers, anxious to save themselves
resemblance of authority, order its
massacre and rillage, And the next
day we read of the determination OF
another band"

MILLIONS HALT FOR POVERTY
Traffic of Mighty City Stopped for
Helpless Younuster.

He was a little Italian about ten
years old and he dragged laboriously
after him a wooden box, which he
had rugged mp with wheels to make a
rude wagon. In this were piled pieces
and scraps of wood gathered from
the refuse heaps of new buildings and
from every other possible source, as
the children of the poor are trained
early how and where to find fuel.
On his crosstown journey he came
to Fifth avenue and paused in the
shadow of towering palatial hotel,
bewildered at the steady stream of
traffic. How could he ever get his
precious burden across, and who
would notice such tiny little fellow
to give him helping hand.
But the big man in blue, standing
in the center of the street saw him.
One blue arm was raised, and as If by
magic the mighty stream stopped
The other arm was held out encourag
ingly, with Come on, sonny; it's all
right"

An urgent call reached him one
day from Westboro, asking his imme.

BRIGAND A
BOLD LOVER
MAKES LOVE TO PEASANTS
WIFE REFORE EYES OF
CAPTORs AND ELOPEs
WITH HER.

Madrid. Oct. ia band OF span-
ish genarderic marched slowly on,
OF mountain denie In southern
Andalusio. Night was falling, and
their headquarters were stin far dis
tant. Anxious looks passed between
the members. The cause of this
anxiety rode jauntily In their midst.
"Murillo the Lion." brigand. lover,
and daring OF the peasantry. had
been captured at last. His position
did not seem to AFFECT his spirits: he
rode on enjoying the discontinue of
his guards.
At the house OF rich peasant the
guard decided to spend the night.
The peasant prepared splendid meal
for both captors and captive. during
which wine fiowed freely. Murillo
drank little. He spent his time con-
Quoting silent Irritation with the
peasants wife. When the guard be-
came too drowsy to drink more wine
they bonud Murillo- carefully, then
went to sleep. As soon as everything
was quiet the PEASANTS wife stole
quietly up to where the gallant brig
and lay and cut his bonds. Murillo
snatched knife and revolver from
n sleeping guard. and both crept 81
lently out OF the room. To their dis
may. they walked straight into the
arms OF guard who was not asleep.
Murillo's dagger was soon in his
heart, but not before his shout had
aroused his comrades. The brIgand
dropped two OF the oncomers, and
plunged his dagger into third.
Flinging the woman over his
shoulder. he dashed out OF the house
unscathed. and night and the noun
tains soon hid him from all pursuit.
Secretary Taft continues to en-
phasize the statement that he speaks
for himself "aione" when he says the
time has come to revise the tariff.
The Implication would seem To be
that no other considerable part OF the
administration agrees with him In
this.

Pictures for the Living-Room,

In the ordinary living room which
has no pretensions tdS:a, period-room it.
is safe to have the majority Of picture
frames in a dark wood brown which
harmonizes with almost any furniture
and is suitable as well for almost any
etching, photogravuret or water color.
For a water color. bright in its hues
a simple gold frame is to be preferred
"a narrow frame Of plain dull gold,
and a mat of white or gold. -. .&.::zzs . 3.
Engravings and :etchings often are
better framed withoutEa mat. The mat
often :detracts from the picture instead
Of bringing out the beauties, as it does
with water colors. Landscapes with
great deal Of detail in them require an
exceedingly narrow frame, as simple
as it is possible to find. Bold, broadly
treated subjects look better in wide,
plain frames, while large single heads
are best in frames Of either rocco Or
Florentine molding. unless they, too, are
decidedly broad in their treatment,
when a deep fat frame Of either gold
or stained wood serves as the best
background and brings out the artistic
treatment of the subject.
A good rule in hanging pictures is to
place the largest pictures in group
on level with the eyes, and to hang
the smaller pictures around it with
reference to subject rather than to SIZE
Shapes and styles Of frames must con-
form in general way with the furni-
ture of the room and coloring also must
be taken into consideration There
should be enough variety to avoid any
danger Of monotonY, while at the same
time harmony should be preserved.

For these heavier hangings comes
monk 8, cloth in, all shades. hand en-

shade, giving an effect that must be

ture. --,2 49,. =:
Green seems to be the most. popular
color and the shades are multitudinous,
three specially beautiful ones are
known as reseda, apple-olive and sea-
foam-anything with such a name as
this last should be charming. -
For long thin curtains there is moth

to be freakish, and are lovely, as to col
oring. =
