THE FATEs OF HORSES.
Humane Agent Has Disposed Of over
30 Good, Trusty Steeds

Humane Agent Fuller thinks that the
world Is getting better and that the men
of Burlington are becoming more
humane. In fact. according to Mr.
Fuller, many OF them are developing the
most tender of hearts
During the past few months over 30
owners of horses have brought tired and
soul-wearied animals. IL horses have
souls. to be killed. Some OF these men
have been offered snug sums of money for
the animals, but they refused the offers
They preierreu having the horses killed
rather than have them inhumanely
treated by future owners.
These horses. however. have not been
honored with graves. as are some Of the
country Dobbins and Nancys It appears
that they are taken to the rendering
plant, where soon their remains are scat
tered to the four directions and across
the seas. 1t seems sad to think that
some faithful old steed is now assuming
the form of a cake OF soap: but such Is
the fate tina. befals good and bad
horses.

WHY He LEFT HOME.
rank Stafford Gives Reasons for Fail
Ing to Support His Family

Frank j. Stafford. who was arraigned
in city court Tuesday morning for
nom support, is. according to his own
story, 4 much prosecuted man. He
was arrested in New Haven. where he
was working, and in court Tuesday
he explained how and why things
were not going right at home. Fol-
lowing his story, the case was con-
tinued for one month and Mr.. Stafford
was set at liberty.
Up to two months age. Mr., Stafford
stated. lie had supported his wife and
two children. Then men commenced
calling to see his wife. among them
being soldiers. and he :. strated
This became unbearable and he finally
lett. Recently his daughter Margare,
Stafford. was arrested in a raid in a
disorderly house. and this added to
his cup of bitterness. The only son
is al the Industrial school at Vor-
gennes. and the family seems to bc
on the verge OF total disruption.

COST OF LIVING.
4 Green MOUntnlnccr's Contribution
to the l'OrSlem.

To the Editor OF the New York Sun
wealth was never greater than the total
production today. Never before has n
units eXertion OF labor produced more
food, shelter and clothing than units
cxertion today Export trade the world
over is constantly increasing. and We
are sending today cargOes and cargoes
of produce which to our fathers were
only dreams.
What !s thus true % the ration is true
Of the individual as well. Men with IA
great capacity for work are not only
getting a rich and beautiful harvest but
are supplying vast army OF others.
Including the dissatisfied multitude who
have little or no faith in work. Not only
is the worlds total production increas-
ing, but the consumption per capita is
increasing as we'll days labor to-
morrow will bring to your home in the
evening an increased supply of recessi-
ties and comforts and larger share in
the Injuries besides.
The problem then is not what is the
price of commodities, nor what does 1t
cost to live, but this: What does a units
exerton now bring?
The high price Of living when micro
scoped merely resolves Itself into this:
How can we increase the worlds total
production? How can we get men to do
more work?
My solution at first sight is altogether
new and radical and possibly may never
80 to your press, 1t Is the solution pro-
fessors theolosians and statesmen can
not as yet discern nor offer. Simply
this: Help the greatest worker OF all,
who is helping all others to work. Help
the great industrial giants and their
corporations. the men who are helping
every man. woman and child below
them-helpins every one who Is willing
to help himself -Herbert l.. Wilbur,

PYROTECHNIcS
ARE INTERRUPTED

About 1870 Monday night, the
screeching of the Light plant
whistle sounded an alarm of fire.
Smoke was discovered pouring
from the hay loft OF the stable at
the rear of the Colorado Valley
Land company Office, and in a
short time a large crowd gathered,
and with the aid of the new
engine, the fire was soon extin-
tinguished.
Two lines of hose were laid and
the entire second story was deluged
with water. But slight loss was
suffered, as the horses and vehicles
were removed at the outset.
The location Of the fire was such
that had it gained Roadway, a
disastrous blaze might have re-
suited. 1t was in the same block
that one of the worst fires occurred
number of years ago.
Prompt action and good equip
ment are essential for fire fighting,
and occasional encouragement of
the fire department might prove
profitable-even in dollars and
ceuts-to business men who carry
large stocks of goods.
1t seems to us that the new fire
engine has paid handsome divi-
dends since its purchase, and as a
suggestion, another reel of hose
might come in handy some time.
