HORSE FOR THE MUSEUM.
Skeleton of stonewalI Jaekson's
Charger Is Secured.

Pittsburg, Pa.-With the great
mass of official business off his hands,
caused by the annual meeting of the
Museum Directors association, in this
city recently, DR.. w. j. Holland now
intends to devote himself to the
mounting of the many new finds made
within the last few months.
By far the most interesting OF
these, from historical standpoint, is
the skeleton of Stonewall Jackson's
horse, which was secured by the di.
rector against much quiet but per-:
sistent competition. DR.. Holland will
prepare this exhibit with his own
hands, and it probably will be placed
in the museum within fortnight. The
skeleton is said to be practically per.
feet.
The skeleton of another famous war
horse of the rebellion, Winchester, the
charger of Gen. Phil Sheridan, in his
famous 20-mile ride, is government
property, and is kept in the museum
on Governors island. In New York
harbor. This museum for long time
has been going to ruin through the
lack of an appropriation to keep it up,
and the hide of the old war horse is
rapidly falling away from dry rot.
1t is possible that Winchester will
be added to the Carnegie collection or
that both Jackson's and Sheridan's
horses will ultimately stand side by
side in a national museum.

The most serious problem that con-
fronts the rural towns and villages
Of thia country is the competition Of
eered local enterprises by the cata-
Iogue houses Of the large cities. It is
2 problem for which q solution must
20 found II the prosperity and sta
billy OF the nation is to stand.
And the solution Of this great prob
lem lies IN the hands Of the people OF
the towns and villages and the farms.
especially the farms.
The people Of the rural communities
have everything to lose and nothing
to gain by sending their money to
the catalogue houses, by passing by
their local merchants and sending
their dollars to the concerns who have
absolutely no interest Ia their com.
nunitles.
These catalogue houses do not pay
taxea in Your town; the local mer.
chant does. They do not build side
walks In your town; the local mer-
chant does. They do not contribute
TO the building OF roads over which
the crops Of the farms are hauled to
uaarket; tho local merchant does.

BOY HAS PLAN TO FEED HORSES
Automatic Labor-savins Device Is the
Work of Fourteen-Year-old.

Middleboro, Mass.-One of the most
unique displays in the home work de-
partment at the recent exhibition CIV
en- by the pupils of the public schools
was the automatic horse feeder made
by Arthur Ripley. 14-year-old high
school student. Visiting teachers and
superintendent were much interest
ed in this labor-saying device, and the
young electricians was kept busy dur
ing the exhibition explaining his feed
or and demonstrating it's usefulness.
1t consisted of large box with two
partitions for the different kinds of
grain, the bottom of which was hung
on hinges. A lever which held the
bottom in position was connected with
the alarm gear of common alarm
clock, which was put in a small box
on the side of the grain receptacle.
The time of the clock in front CORE
sponded with the time on the clock in
side the box.
The alarm is set at the time the
horses are to be fed, and the farmer
could then go about his other work,
and at the proper time the alarm
would go off, releasing the lever and
dropping the bottom of the box, which
allowed the grain to fall into the
manger in front Of the horse. A small
electric light is attached to the upper
side of the clock box, which shows the
farmer where the box is without a
lantern, so that the possibility of set
ting fire to the barn is ayerted. Each
day the box is filed with grain and
the lever adjusted.

ROMANCE OF SERVANT
FORMER HousEkEEPER wEps
WESTERN MILLIONAIRE.
Was Once Companion Of His First
Wife-successfuIIy Invests Saw
ings, Then Educates Her
self and Travels.

Spokane, Wash.-Anna Larsen-Pe.
terson, born Of humble parents In
Sweden. has become the wife of D. G..
Corbin, millionaire railroad builder
and sugar manufacturer, president of
the Spokane International Railway
company, whose line he built after
selling the Spokane Falls & Northern
railway to the Great Northern Rail-
road company. The wedding took
place at Mt. Vernon, N. Y, May %,
and was not made public until the
couple arrived in Spokane few days
ago. Mrs. Corbin is 35 years of age,
while her husband is 20. Close friends
say it was a love match.
Mrs. Corbin's romance reads more
like one of Hans Christian Anderson's
fairy tales than a story of modern life
in the active and virile northwest.
The daughter of a small farmer in
rural Sweden, as little girl she
dreamed of the future, and before she
attained her majority she came to
America, like many of her country
men and women, to improve her sta
ton in life.
After working in various house
holds in New England and the middle
western states, she came to Spokane
- years ago and entered the home of
D. C. Corbin as housekeeper and
companion to Mrs Corbin. She gained
the friendship of Mrs. Corbin, who
assisted the girl with her education.
Shortly before Mrs. Corbin died, six
years ago, Anna married Antoine Pc
terson, at that time identified with a
local hardware firm, but they lived TO-
gether only few weeks, and two
years afterward the young woman OBJ
tained a divorce at Tacoma
Before her marriage she invested
her savings in realty, which she sold
proftably, and with the proceeds went
to Chicago and placed herself under
instructors, afterward going to Bos-
ton and New York, whence she went
abroad with teacher and three other
pupils on an educational tour.
She travelled extensively a year,
and in the meantime entered into cor
ASSpOuuChSO WAeAl hOi -iSAAAiSA SAAtSASy
er, who asked her hand in marriage
three years ago. She gave her con-
sent several weeks ago, when Mr..
Corbfn started eastward on a business
trip, and they were married at the
home of friend, the bride being Civ
en- away by her brother, Hjalmer Lar
son, who is chief craftsman for the
Spokane international system.
Mrs. Corbin is of the Swedish type
of beauty and has light hair and blue
eyes. She is brilliant conversation
alist and speaks English with scarce
ly a trace of accent. She is also con-
versant with the French and German
languages. She is member of the
Swedish Lutheran church, and it is
said by intimate friends that she will
use considerable of the fortune placed
at her disposal by her husband in as
sisting her countrywomen and in
works of charity.
Through her marriage she becomes
the mother-in-law of the earl of Ok
ford, whose wife is Mr.. Gorbin's
daughter.
