. Horse Stolen While He SnOOzes.

Thomas Burthe of Pleasant Springs
would like to meet the man who was
clever enough to steal horse from
between the shafts of buggy in
which he (Burthe) was riding. He is
so anxious to make the thief's acquaint-
ance that he called upon the services of
Sheriff Erdahl to assist in the appre-
hensiOn.
Burthe said he was driving from Sun
Prairie to Madison last Tuesday night
and fell asleep after he had come about
half way. When he awoke his rig was
standing still in the middle of the road.
He picked up the whip and tapped
ahead but this failed to bring sign of
life from his horse. He left the buggy
to see what was the matter and found
the shafts lying on the ground and the
horse gone.
He walked into this city and pursued
a fruitless search for the animal. Then
he decided to ask the sheriff for help
and the two started second search

At the time when Louis Napoleon was
president of the French republic the
commander at Lyons was General Cas-
tellane, an old soldier whose stern rule
kept in check the riotous spirits of that
disorderly city. One of the most bois-
ferrous Of the latter was barber, who
openly boosted that he only waited for
the opportunity of Kidding the city of
its stern commander. The general
heard of the threat and one afternoon
ordered his coachman to drive to the
BARRIERS shop. Leaving his carriage.
the general entered the shop unattend-

desired the barber to shave him. The
astonished braggart performed the op-

The music and dancing of the Negri-
tos are especially interesting. Many of
them know how to make and to play
both the bamboo nose flute and a Kind
of jewsharp made from bamboo. Some
of them use crude stringed instruments
fashioned from single joints of BAN
boo, the strings being cut from the out
.er layer of wood, to which their ends
remain attached, and being raised up
by means of bridges. The distribution
of the several kinds of musical instru-
ments above mentioned is more or less
local, but the bronze tomt0m or gan
Za'' is in universal use, although some
Negritos play it with drumstick.
while others beat it with their hands
Many Of their dances are pantomimic
Their singing is often weird in the ex-

Paraquay's "Spider Lace"

Missionaries in Paraguay more than
200 years ago taught the native In
dams to make lace by hand. Since that
Gay the art has greatly developed, and
in certain of the towns lacemaking is
the chief occupation. Almost all the
women. many children and not few
men are engaged in this industry A
curious fact with reference to the Par
aguayan laces is that the designs
were borrowed from the strange webs
woven by the semitropical spiders that
abound in that country. Accordingly
this lace is by the natives called nan
