They were talking about horses jump

bers said:
The best story of a horses jumps
which comes to mind is that of Cali
fOrnia cowboy. He was taking steers
to Leadville and had camped for the
night on Bear river. near its junction
with the Little Snake. In the middle
of the night something occurred to
stampede the cattle. The man mount
ed his broncho and rode hither and
thither on the flank of the herd until
their fright had died away. Four or
five times the rider felt his horse give
tremendous leaps and with daylight he
discovered the cause. The cattle had
climbed to n level plateau which Is in
tersected by n canyon four miles long
and from 1.j00 to 1000 feet deep. Its
walls incline toward each other at the
top, where the distance is fifteen or
twenty feet In riding the man had
kept the steers circling about this pla-
teau. \ dozen of them he found had
fallen down the canyon and been kill
ed. IIoof marks showed him that the
great jumps made by his horse were

Thu First Aotreaaea.

According to the best authorities
available, the first actresses to appear
in public were three FrenchwOmen
who played at the Blackfriars theater,
in London. about 1890 They were
however, badly received and were so
harshly criticised that they quickly
abandoned their engagement The
first English actress to appear on the
stage was Mrs. Ann Marshall, who
played DesdemOna about 1900. She
was unmarried but in those days it
was considered terrible breach Of
prOpriety for an actress to use the
title of miss. Previous to Mrs. Mar
shall's appearance female roles were
always taken 10y males. On one coca

The nominie.l Lsttsr..

The Romans used the first eight let
tiers of the alphabet, A to III, to mark
the consecutive days of their recurring
nundinal period. The early Christians
adopted the same plan for marking the
days OF the week, dropping the last let
ter I'D as unnecessary. In the church
calendar A has always stood for the
LIST of January, G for the I'd, etc. on
down to G for the 18th. and then the
cycle began again with A, which would
make it return on the 18th, the 22d,
and so on. Each day of the year has
thus its calendar letter, and the letter
which falls on the first Sunday is the
"dominical letter" of the year. Feb. 2S
has always the letter G and March
the letter ID. Feb. 20. or leap day"
has no letter provided for it. and this
makes change in the Sunday letter
after February, so that in Leap years
there are two dominica letters. As
the common year contains fifty-two
weeks and one day, the dominica let
ter changes from year TO year always
going backward one place for COM
mon year and two places for Leap
years. This mode of representing the
days of the week has been uninterrupt-
eddy employed in the calendar of the
church since the earliest times.
