Endurance Of tho Horse.

What is a far days. work for a
horseg' Is q frequent question n very
Gificult to answer. The London bus
horse does Is miles q day at q rate of
seven miles an hour in double harness
with a four-ton bus; a pair of post
horses used to do IS miles with a one
ton coach at eight miles going and at
six returning.
II have known the horses in the
heavy deer a OF H. NJ. B~uckhounds
writer in Country Life in America, but
they were never worked more than
twice a week. A good horse will trot
his 20 to 80 miles q day for several
days c~onsecutively, but annot keep 1t
up; he may do SO miles In day, but
then must have a rest the next.
Small horses, other things being
equal. stand more work and recover
more quickly than big horses. Some
remarkable instances OF the powers of
ponies are given in William Days book,
which records a run OF 107 miles in Ia
of 172 miles In 23k hours by a 12-hana
pony Qed), which beat the coach from
London to Exeter; the time given in
cluded all stops.
Town work, on account Of the fire.
quent stops and the hard pavement,
induces fatigue, and especially leg
WEAKNESS, sooner than country work.
Two horses worked well within their
powers will always ROY more eco
nomical in the end her one that is
habftualiy driven to the utmost limit
of his capacity.
There are, however, many cases
where from different causes one horse
represents what the schoolboy called
the 'irreducible maximum then the
animal par excellence to be bought IS
the cob, though he VIII not be too easy
to find In this country. where the love
of fast trotters has dominated the ques-
ton of general utility.
yet the true cob, sturdy in build,
with plenty of bone but enough blood
to keep him from being sluggish, is one
Of the most useful specimens of the
equine race. Well under 10 hands, he
is easy to mount and sufficiently short
in his stride to be q comfortable hack
for wen elderly men. and he Is up to
quite a considerable weight: in harness
he is sprightiy, quite fast enough forI
ordinary purposes, and being low and
thick is capable of a surprising power
of draught.
In England, where he Is as common
as he is rare here, he is the lnajnstay |
of the mall and the general drudge of
the large establishment, and is usually |
an ornament to both. He should carry !
his head well, have undeniably GOOD
shoulders, a short back and POWERFUL
quarters, being, in short, d big horse
in a small compass

The Passage

Many q year Is In its grave
Since 1 crossed this restless wAye,
And the evening, fair as ever,
Shines on ruin, rock and river.
Then. in this same boat, beside.
Sat two comrades, old n tried;
One withall a fathersftrnth
One with all the FIRE OF youth.
One on earth In science wrought.
And his grave In silence sought.
But the younger. brighter form.
Passed In battle and in storm.
So, Whenever I turn mine eye
Back upon the days gone by,
SaddeninS thoughts OF friends come Ger
me,
Friends who closed their course before me.
Yet what binds US, friend to friend.
But that soul with soul can blend;
Soul-like were those hours OF yore-
Let us walk IN soul once 1norel
Take, O boatman, twice thy fee,
Talse-I give 1t willingly
For, invisible to thee,
Spirits twain have crossed with me:

RODE FROM LEWES
in FREIGHT CAR
Locked up as a Joke by Farm
Hands, Man Had a Dreary
Time

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. IL
Falling asleep after eating his lunch
in an empty freight car lying on a sid
ing on the edge Of his farm, near
Lewes, Del, last Wednesday, Jesse
McCloslSey, forty-two years old, was
faint from hunger when rescued from
the car at the Girard Point freight
yards last midnight.
AIcClockey blames his predicament
the joking propensity OF his own farm
hands, and there is likely 10 be "some-
thing doing when he gets home.
McCloskey might have slowly starved
to death but for Freeman, a mounted
policeman of the Twentieth and Fed
eral streets station, who heard mufiied
cries for help coming from the line Of
cars whilo patrolling his beat. Unable
at first to locate the source OF the
creis, Freeman raised his own voice,
and McCloskey, tal1ing~a a deep breath
Of what air was stirring in the stufiy
compartment, emitted a shout that
brought the policeman to the door.
With the assistance Of a railriad de-
tective, Freeman pried open the door
TO find McCloskey faint from hunger
and exhaustion.
He lost no time in taking the former
to a nearby. restaurant, where no de-
molished all that the contents of Free
mans change pocket could purchase
Then he was lodged in the police sta
tion, and after a nights rest faced
Magistrate Briggs this morning.
McCloskey related how with several
of his employees, ne had climbed int1
the car to eat lunch on Wednesday al
noon.
The next thing he remembers was be.
ing wakened by the noise Of the train
Rushing 10 the closed door, which hS
had last seen open, he found IT locked
fast. His companions had doubtless
closed the door upon him as jok'
when he went TO sleep intending to re
turn after he had had his nap.
A shifting engine had apparently ar
