A HORSE QUITE AT HOME.
Takes Up Lodgings in he Cellar OF . Fiat
House Unexpectedly.

A domesticated horse, with a marked
penchant for the retirement OF life in a
fat. took up lodgings in an apartment house
at CAS- West Forty-seoond street yesterday
afternoon. He chose the cellar, with a
fine vista Of back yard right at hand for the
after dinner stroll.
A citizen Of Union Hill, Nj, Of the name
of Simons bought the home loving horse
and a light spring buggy from Van Tassel
4 Kearney of $50 East Thirteenth street.
He started to drive down to the West Forty
second street ferry with his new light
running domestic. When on West Forty
second street, just opposite a brick apart
ment house atio4S, an automobile came along
and scared the new horse. He bolted
through the open door Of the house, leaving
the light spring buggy, mostly springs.
on the stoop outside.
The homeseeker ambled down the hall
way to the back Of the house. Then he
tried to turn around and fell against the
balustrade of the cellar stairs. The railing
broke, letting him down with a thump on
the stairs. Then the stairs broke, and the
gentle horse dropped into the basement.
Mr.. Simons OF Union Hill, sitting IN the
wrecked buggy on the front stoop, heard
the succession Of crashes in the apartment,

that sounded from the three floors OF hats.
He decided that il was that dear Union
Hill for his, and he took the ferry carrying
his shredded harness on his arm.
MBefore Mrs. Virginia White, colored, had
finished screaming from the second floor
front window there was another succession
of thunderous crashes from the basement.
The new lodger was just kicking down the
door leading from the basement into the
Jack yard; that was all.
When Roundsman Underhill and PATROL
men Kolle and Jones Of the West Forty
seventh street station arrived on the scene
they found the domestic horse Out in the
back yard browsing on three cabbage
heads that had been left on the back stoop
by one OF the tenants. They o in the
situation at a glance. The new tenant
could not be evicted until a new flight OF
cellar stairs is built. ,
So a quarter Of a sack Of oats n a baled
hay sandwich were ordered for the star
dodgers dinner. He will continue to to

Prominent members of the, last legis-
lature believe the coming session will
have some radical railroad measures up
for consideration, and will pass them.
Several men who have been members of
the legislature and expect to return this
year do not hesitate to say that they
believe the next legislature will pass
some railroad measures that will mean
lower mileage in Minnesota and the
abolition Of passes. H
A prominent member from a western
district, while in the city recently, de-
clared that he had talked with many Of
his former associates and with others
who expected to be in the legislature
this winter, and that he had found
strong sentiment in favor of railroad
rate regulation. "As far, as i can
learn said he, "there is a demand for
cheaper railroad fares, and it comes
from the people generally, but more es-
pecially from outside the larger cities.
The country is demanding it. expect
to see passes abolished in this state by
the next Legislature and steps under
taken to secure reduction in mileage

farmers will also demand some rigid
regulation of freight methods. | have

singing Of q song dedicated to Wonder
land by Joseph McCauley, made a
hit. He has a voice powerfully enough
to be heard distinctly in all parts Of
the grounds and there was hardly need
for the band to subdue it's accompani-
ment as much as it did for fear Of
drowning his voice. The song is a
really pretty one. The double bag
punching by the Dexter Brothers was
a platform act that was something of
a novelty. The comedy ladder act Of
Walburn and Whitney is retained for
another week. The Christianson twins,
were shown at the Infant Incubator In

attention. Wonderland calculates on

France the Money Center.

/, The republic of France, with popu-
lation Of 40,000,000 and trade inferior
to that Of Great Britain, the United
States or Germany is today the fnan-
cial center of the world, to which the
nations 20 for their loans of ready
money. The French own their national
debt, large part Of the debt Of Rus
sia, and have recently in decisive
manner showed, their capacity to alb
sorb more securities by taking the $780,
100000 loan Of the Pennsylvania rail
road system. This is a remarkable rec
ord when viewed in connection with
the fact that generation ago France
was beaten in a tremendous war and
$saddled with an indemnity which Bis
marck had very little expectation
would be paid and which he possibly
hoped would not be paid.
How has France, nation Industrial

Great Britain in commerce, gained
such power in world finance2 Rob

and intense application to the work in

least productive corner Of the republic

Poorly paid government employees,
shopkeepers by the tens Of thousands,
are investors "whose combined savings
have provided funds to carry many a
nation thru lean period.''
Another popularity Of French IL
vestments is that they are not made in
domestic industrials. The American
thinks there is nothing better than his
home railroad bonds or farm mortgages,
but the Frenehman lends his money
abroad. The reason is that the French
are always looking for socialistic up
