HAD TENDER SPOT FOR HORSE
Washington and Grant Alike in Their Fondness for the Noble Friend
 Of Mankind.

The disposition of tie 1ate Presi- dent Grant to talk horse was a great cause of offense to certain prim peo- pie If they had consulted history they would have learned that horse talk was also a characteristic of that distinguished soldier and fine old Vir- ginia gentleman, George Washington by name, declares writer in the Army and Navy Journal .I found, wrote the artist Gilbert Stuart that it was difficult to interest Washington in conversation while was taking his portrait. began on the revolution, the battles of Monmouth and Prince ton but he was absolutely dumb. Aft CT while got on horses. l had touched the right chord" Washington was then president of the United States and resided in Philadelphia, where he had a stable of six and twen- ty horses. He used to say that he needed but one good quality in horse and that was to go along, for he could always keep his saddle, pro- vided the animal could keep his legs
 After the surrender at AppomattoX Grant had not word to say about the stirring events through which he had just passed, but as he sat over his campfire that night he turned to his quartermaster and said: "Ingalls, do you remember that old white mule So and So used to ride in Mexico?' Of course, under the circumstances. Ingalls, was prepared to remember that or any other experience that pleased his chief. He probably would not have cared, however, to remember just then the disastrous speculation in raising potatoes in which he was Grants partner when they were sta toned together in Oregon.

BOUND TO LAND SOMEWHERE
Mir. Manheim's Roundabout Way to Find Some Place Where He
 Could Get "Riohts."

There may be a little eXaggeration in this bit of alleged court news from the Troy Times, nevertheless, the tale rests upon the important fact tEat wives need no longer complain that the law fails to protect them against their husbands. The rights" of wo- men in this respect seem more secure than the rights" of men in the corre- spending case.
 Simon Mannheim, holding ice to the side of his head, appeared in court and demanded summons for Mrs. Mannheim.
 q am a goot husband" explained Simon, "but mine wife is peeyish. See vat she dit to me"
 The clerk expressed sympathy at the state of Mr Manheim's eye. bnt declined to issue the summons. "This court" said he. "is for women that are not supported by their husbands. Go upstairs to the police court
 MT. Mannheim went upstairs. The magistrate looked at him coldly. This court is for wives who are abused by llelI HuS Ht Sdiu, lIOt IOl huo- bands who can't take care of them selves
 Mr Mannheim. obviously puzzled, started downstairs again. He called on the clerk of the court of domestic relations. "Aber I don't take care of mine vife, do you git me?" he asked
 'We surely do,' said the clerk. Here's where we do full justice to women, but we don't care white bean for men,
 Mr Manheim started out In an hour he was back in the police court under arrest but with an air of men, tai repose. The magistrate wanted to know tte charge against Manheim.
 ''He threw stone through the win dow of the Woman's Rights Club room. said the policeman.-Youth's Companion.

Caesar and the Empire.

The reason why the Roman em- pire succeeded the republic was that there was felt to be an urgent need of a strong central power. For many years the republic mad been desolated and the cry of the whole people was for peace-peace almost at any price Now, peace could be secured only by the ascendancy of single man, rul- ing with absolute and irresistible sway So the people acquiesced in the change. They even hailed it with joy A few patriots like Brutus and Cato gave up in despair. but most men were pleased with the revolution which made Caesar supreme. Not that they were monarchistic at heart, but that after the devastating strife they wanted peace, even though it be at the sacrifice of some of their liber. ties.

SOME EXCUSE FOR MULE
But Ranch Hand Had Poor Opinion of Any Other Living Thing That
 Made Same Mistake.

Recently writes attorney Earl B. Smith of Soferton, Yuma county, Arizona, "I was obliged to remain at q primitive southern Arizona ranch over night, and at about dusk was given quilt, clean sheet, and pill low and told to take them to the top of 20foot alfalfa stack and make up my bed. Knowing the condition of the country, I did not murmur, and climbed the pole ladder to spend the night. never enjoyed a better nights rest at any hotel. At early dawn 1 raised my head and saw two yearling mule colts feeding at the edge of the stack. We exchanged glances for mo ment, while the mules ears showed keen astonishment Suddenly I rose to my feet, and in doing so the white sheet elung to my shoulders. where upon the colts Tit out down the lane as if the Angel Gabrel were de- sceuding to take them to celestial pas turage. While at the breakfast table I related the incident, which was much enjoyed, but no remarks were made at the time. As one of the ranch hands was passing out of the door he said in a subdued but distinctly a1dible voice that it was the first time lie had ever heard of lawyer being mistaken for an angel, and nobody but mule would have made such an error."
