TREATED AS A GOOD FRIEND.
Intimate Association Between the Arab
and His Horse.

II is most interesting to note the
way the Arab treats his faithful
friends. So Injured, indeed. is the
Arab pony by long usage and descent
to the manner of life in the desert
that even my own pony positively inn
proved on the treatment and never
saw him so fit as when he came back
from the trip.
If the Arab and his horse are by
legend closely allied. they are in
point of fact even more intimately
connected. His mount Is his first
thought, and at all times by far the
most interesting topic OF conversation.
He Is ungroomed, unclipped, unhal-
tered, for the Arab prefers TO shackle
him by means of two ropes, 8 short
cord connecting the fore and hind fet-
locks and a long line lettering him
above the hind fetlock to peg in the
ground. Thus he can move about or
roll at leisure, and should there be
any rough heritage at hand can for
age for it, Perhaps one Of the princi-
pal reasons why the Arab so excels at
long journeys is that the never worries
himself nor does he ever distress his
mount unless there is real cause to
do so. He simply continues q steady
walk all day and hardly ever gallops

WHEN THE TREMENDOUSLY FELL
His knowledge Of Horses Was Evil
IDENTIFY a Weak Point.

Mayor Reyburn of Philadelphia told
at dinner horse story.
"A farmer visited phrenologist,"
he said He had heard that the phre-
nologist thought of buying horse. He
had his head examined and his bumps
revealed surprising things
Your tastes are the simple, home
ly and pure tastes of farmer, said
the phrenologist, and farmer I take
you TO be. Am I not right? Aha,
thought So You are unready and fall
tering in speech you find 1t difficult
TO express the simplest ideas. You
are sadly deficient in judgment and
have no knowledge Of human nature
Your innocent and trustful disposition
renders you an easy dupe to design
Ing men, and your own perfect hon
esty prevents you from either suspect
ing or defrauding any one.
The phrenologist the following
week bought horse from the farmer
The horse was knock-kneed, it was rs
years old, 1t had bad temper, and II
baked. Though the farmer had only
paid s15 for the animal. he secured
without difficulty $3.50 from the phre
nologist for It.
It's wonderful, said the farmer tc
himself. as he FASTENED toward the
bank to deposit the money-'it's jest
wonderful that man should know sc
much about men and not know a thing
about bosses! Detroit Free Press

IT MAY BE RECONSTRUCTED
President Roosevelt Wires Gov. ell.
lett That Measure 10 Most offsn-
slVs Of All.

Sacramento, Feb. I.-With the de-
feat in the lower house yesterday of
two OF the anti-JApaness measures,
followed by the unexpected passage
Of third bill providing for the So
Of Japanese school children
in separate schools, President Roose-
welt again has taken a hand in the sit
uation that for the last week has
drawn international attention to Cali
fornia. Hardly had the bill been pass
ed by the assembly when Gov. Gillett
received the following telegram from
the president:
Washington Feb. 4, 1900
]. N. Gillett, Governor OF California:
Your kind letter just received.
What Is the rumor that the Cali
fornia legislature has passed q
bill excluding the Japanese chill
dren from the public schools?
This is the most offensive bill OF
all, and in my judgment Is clearly
unconstitutional, and we should
at once have to test II in the
courts. Can II be stopped in the
legislature or by vote?
Theodore Roosevelt.
The governor at once sent reply,
the nature OF which he declines at this
time to make public, and he requested
from the president an immediate ans
wer. Pending the receipt Of another
telegram from President Roosevelt,
Gov. Gillett declined tonight to discuss
the action OF the assembly.
The bill passed which was one OF
three anti-Japanese measures intro
duced by Assemblyman Grove l.. John
SON. places the Japanese in the same
classification as other Asiatics and in
serts the word Japanese" In the pres
emit statute providing for the segrega-
ion in separate schools OF "Mongol-
ian" children.
By this action the lower house OF
the California legislature has taken
the step which the Board of Education
Of San Francisco intended to take two
years ago, and which was abandoned
after the board and former Mayor Eu'
gene e. Schmitz were called to Wash
lngton and had several conferences
with President Roosevelt.
Immediately upon learning of the
assembly's action, Gov. Gillett called
into conference Speaker Philip Stan
ton and the Republican leaders OF both
houses OF the legislature. They ex
pressed the hope OF still being able
to defeat the measure in the Assem-
bly, upon reconsideration and 1t wal

There will be read by Mrs. Frank

Germany, recently received from Miss
Jennie A Valentine. What can pos

In the perspective from the turn of

We wished to do, and we wanted to-

Ways of Raising Money for Charity.

secured for the donor the much-prized
peacocks feather, while for half that
sum a title of nobility is conferred on

the same method when erecting a
