A Series Of Unfortunate engagements
and Queer Coineidenees.
No less than eight times was
Fraulein Marie Doring, a Vienness
beauty, engaged to be married, and.
although her lovers escaped with
life, some accident or misfortune
rendered each ineligible in the ewes
of the capricious fair one, who did
not hesitate promptly to elect a
successor. in turn as promptly dis
carded when misfortune overlook
him. Her first fiance was utterly
ruined at cards. her second lost his
hand through gun explosion. her
third lost his money in business
speculation. her fourth had his good
looks irrcvocablv marred BY the
kick of horse. her fifth suffered
Imprisonment for forgery. her sixth
was stricken down with paralysis.
her seventh had his leg nmputated.
while her eighth escaped all mis-
hap and eventually led her to the
altar.
Another series of strange coin
cidences attended the lovers Of
Jeanne LEROY. a native of Mar
seilles. Her FIRST 6ance was found
drowned, her second was killed in a
tavern brawl. her third vanished, as
it were. into space, and her fourth
was found lying dead in circun-
stances that pointed TO foul play.
Her fifth. too, whom she married,
almost lost his life at the hands Of
a Spaniard, who, however. received
such injuries during the struggle
that his death occurred a few DAYS
later Although the Spaniard made
no confession. the fact of his hav-
ing for years cherished a fierce
though hopeless passion for the
girl, on whose lover he made such
a dastardly attack. seemed to sug-
gest to many people that the death
Of one or more of the other suitors
might be placed to his account
There is no explanation Of the
fate that overlook the aspirants to
the hand OF another young lady,
the daughter of Partisan ieweler.
Although seemingly possessed Of
every quality to make man happy.
no sooner had she accepted the offer
OF some ardent suitor than on the
latter fell disaster of his own seek
ing. Thrice was she engaged. and
each engagement ended with the
suicide of her lover in a foreign
land. whittier apparently he had

Alfalfa for Horses
q. D. o'Donnell.)

1t seems to be the general opinion
that alfalfa hay is not good horse feed
and especially for horses on the road
or for fast work. Now | would like
TO correct this idea as alfalfa is too
good feed to be condemned for any
purpose The fact is that nearly every
one who feeds horses gives them too
much hay. The same would apply to
all kinds OF hay. II you give a horse
about what alfalfa it should have, say
twelve or fifteen pounds a day for
horses weighing 1000 pounds to-
gether with fair grain ration, you
will find that it will travel just as far
and pust as fast as with other kinds
OF hay and be in better condition.
But il you allow the horse to eat
thirty or forty pounds a day which
they will OF alfalfa II it is given to
them, You are sure 10 have a horse
that is short winded and sloppy. One
OF the famous trotting horses on the
eastern turf having a record below
2:oS is fed alfalfa as its only rough
age have found after many years
ranch experience in the West that
good ration for horse OF any kind
offered is about one pound of grain
and one and half pounds of hay to
each hundred pounds of horse and
this applies particularly to alfalfa.
In fact the horse should do better on
the alfalfa than with other HAYS and
with less grain. This might be the
opportune time to say that the ma
iority OF farmers feed too much hay
OF all kinds to their horses. In fact
the horse barn 10 my notion is where
one OF the greatest wastes of the farm
OF ranch can be found. Horses would
travel better. stand more work and be
healthier IL fed less hay. Most farmers
give them all they can eat and aim to
have them waste enough TO make their
bedding. when they have plenty Of
good straw going to waste on the
farm. The London cab horses which
are considered the finest in the world
have but two hours in the morning
and two hours in the evening, with
noon hour for feeding. At eight
O'Clock in the evening every scrap
of feed IS taken away from them and
they are bedded for the night. Our
western farmers would think their
horses were being starved IL they
found no feed In the manger after
eight or nine O'Clock in the evening.
The feeding OF alfalfa to horses does
away with the old-time bran mash
once week which was considered
so necessary. A great many alfalfa
feeders have from experience decided
that the first cutting of alfalfa Is the
best for horses. or alfalfa that is fair
ly coarse. or some that had come to
full bloom. The idea is, although
they do not know It, that in feeding
such alfalfa the horse gets about the
amount II should have. The hay is
picked over and the best of Il is
eaten so that the animal manages
to get about what It should have. II
they were to give the same amount of
good well-made alfalfa hay the horse
would eat II all and then It would have
too much. An overworked horse or
one run down and thin will pick up
and get fat and in good condition on
an alfalfa meadow quicker than on
any other pasture known. and where
grain is added horse has been known
to put on as high as six pounds day.
