throwing his weight on the back part

pulling the forward part up with his
hands, which keeps the animals head

guide the animal, as it can be forced
either to the right or left simply by
pulling at the shell on each side of

In some Of these contests the tur-
ties cover several miles and DO it in
remarkably fast time. The animals
are generally guided parallel to the

FOUND OUT WHAT 1T MEANT

NO OBJECTIONS.

He had held one of the latest jobs
in the gift of the local political
boss, and when he died there was an
unseemly scramble for his position.
The first man to reach the boss had
no particular claim upon him, but
merely placed his faith in the adage
of the early worm.
"Guv-ner," said he, "do you think
you would have any objections to my
getting into Jones' place."
'Oh, I'm sure | have no objec-
TONS" was the unfeeling reply.

KNOWN EVEN IN PARIS.

Mrs. Charlotte Wilbour said re-
emily in making a speech before the

is fame had penetrated even to
Paris. Some of the women cab
drivers in the French city had asked
her if there was not an American

pose of looking after sanitary affairs

MAETERLINCk ON TOLSTOl.

Maurice Maeterlinck is a passion
ate admirer of Shakespeare and de-
clares the greatest debt he owes is
to the inspiring genius of the great
pect. Tolstoi's attack on the English
bard has caused the Belgian play
wright to take up cudgels in bitter
way against the aged philosopher
He is quoted a, saying:
"Tolstoi now gives to the world
poor, feeble messages of morbid res
ignation-messages such as might
have been conceived and elaborated
by a monk of the year 1000 or by a
sick beadle."

BRUSSELS CABMEN ACETATE.

Cabmen in Brussels found a new
form of protest against the taxi
autos. They met to the number of
200 with their horses and cabs on
the plateau de Koekelberg, and ad-
journed en- masse to an adjoining
cafe.
Thereafter they paraded the
streets in line, with crepe on their
whips, and carried a band of music
in the leading vehicles. Meanwhile,
the hated taxis drove a thriving
trade.

MRS. CARNEGIE AND THE POOR.

Few people know that prior to her
marriage Mrs. Andrew Carnegie was
an ardent worker among the poor
and has continued her work, though
in more restricted fashion, She
was Miss Louise Whitfield and is
many years the junior of Mr.. Carne-
gle. The one child of the union,
Margaret, was for some years ex-
ceedingly frail, a fact which caused
Mrs. Carnegie to keep well hidden
from the public eye. Even now that
Margaret is a sturdy girl her moth
er shuns society and devotes herself
to home life.
