PECULIAR HORSES.
They Have Little Hair and Eat Butter
and SUGAR With Flour.

The greatest peculiarly of the ,fur.
koman breed of horses is their hair
lessness. They have naturally very
little name. and what they have is al
ways carefully cut off. Their skin is
very soft and thin. Colonel Stewart In
Through Persia In Disguise" tells Of
the great care taken of these animals.
They are never stabbed, but picketed
In the open. They are, however. warm
ly clothed First the Turkoman puts
over his animal thick felt body COW
ering of the size that an English horse
wears. Over this he fastens an i'm
mense piece OF felt that covers the
horses ears and his whole body down
to his hooks This clothing he keeps
In place with long roller, which is
passed three times round the horses
body.
The Turkomans feed their horses
when in camp on barley or chopped
straw and give them -four and sleeps
tail fat or clarified butter when they
are going to call on them for great ex-
ertlou. myseu III inuld nave Olten

and coarse sugar and half a pound OF
clarified butter made into balls when !
have ridden them far and wanted them
to go on again. The horse easily d.
gests this ration, and he is ready to
start sooner than IL feed of corn IL
given him. 1t is also supposed to give
great strength.
Turkomans give their horses almost
anything they eat themselves. Al
though hardy in respect Of food, the
horses require good deal of care as
to clothing. for fine coats and delicate
skins make them very susceptible to
colds.

Jeffcrson's Inventions

Thomas jefferson invented the fold
ing camp stool, the revolving office
chair, the two wheeled sulky, the
copying press, the pedometer, hemp
lamp and very convenient improve
ment on the plows used in his day. OF
all these ingenious contrivances the
plow received the greatest notice, a
gold medal having been awarded 1t in
Paris in 1870. Eighteen years later the
Royal Agricultural Society Of the Seine,
to which he had presented the original
pillow, sent him superb up to date
pillow containing his improvement.

MUSIC MAKES BAD MEN GOOD
So Says Columbus (O.) Warden After
His Experience With His
Orchestra.

Columbus, O.-Not a prisoner has
been guilty Of an infraction Of the
prison dining hall rules since the
eleven-piece orchestra has been enter.
tanning the men during meal time.
Two weeks ago the warden conceived
the idea of having the prison orchestra
play in the two dining halls. The mu-
sicians play in one hall at noon and
in the other In the evening, but the
two halls are SO close together that
the music from one can be heard in
the other.
In this way nearly 1000 convicts
have the uplifting influence of music
Under the old plan. Warden Thomas
said, about half the fights were start
ed In the dining room. Good music,
the warden thinks, does not necessar-
fly mean classical music, and on each
program there Is a goodly sprinkling
Of popular music, including ragtime.
Warden Thomas Is considering the
advisability Of forming two crack mil
itary companies. If the plan under
way materializes, one company will be
Of white prisoners and the other of col
ored. Residing temporarily behind the
bars are former members of the U. 8.
army and the National Guard of other
states who might be used to start the
two companies.
