MISSOURI MULE

Kicks Only Once as Electric
Cleaner Makes Shift Of
Grey to Buff.

A new use for the electric cleaner
was discovered on Governors Island
polo field the other day when a
Missouri mule, greyish black one
moment, with the accumulated dust
and mud of the winter, stood forth
minute later in his natural shade
of buff.
The electric cleaner was the cause
OF this sudden and pleasant trans.

Sergeant Atkinson, of the Service
Company, Sixteenth Infantry. u. s.

The mule knicked only twice while

But Sergeant Atkinson said it was
all he had time to do. BY the time
he was taking his stance for a third

carrying away the cleaner with its
dust bag full to the bursting point.

FARMERS PROTEST
STOCKING RABBITS

MALAGA, N. j., July 7.-Orchard
owners and truck growers in some
sections Of South Jersey have raised
protests against the. proposed i'm
portation OF $1,000 rabbits from Mis-
souri, to restock woods and fields
throughout the State for the hunt.
Ing season next fall.
Farmers say rabbits are consid
cred a pest in the West, and they
may become equally destructive IN
the truck-growing and fruit raising
districts in this State.
SportsInen assert the intention Il
to restock isolated districts, o.
which there are many square miles
where there are only scattered
farmers who have principally grass
lands raise fodder crops, hunters
say, are anxious for more rabbits
for their own shooting.
Game wardenS report the season
so far has been favorable for deer
in south New Jersey. and several
fawns have been seen with the
herds. There has been too much
rain for the smaller game. and
pheasants and quail seem to have
suffered most. Reports from the
bay meadows indicate that wild
duck and other water fowl nesting
on the marshes have not suffered
any from the heavy rains. except
in some locations where tributary
streams have overlooked.
Hundreds Of pheasant chicks are
beginning to forage through fields
and woodlands, having been Matched
out by farmers under their setting
hens. The eggs were obtained from
the State game farm AZ forket
river, where many other broods Of
pheasants have been Matched re

OF GREAT
NOT FOUND IN
MUSEUMS
Earliest Attempt to Impart
Beauty to Foot Coverings
Was Made in Rome

Museums boast Of collections Of
swords, hats, and uniforms worn at
one time or another by soldiers and
statesmen whose names have been
immortalized in history, but 1t seems
rather peculiar that not one pair Of
boots or shoes worn by celebrated
men on historical occasions has been
preserved and placed on exhibition
with the rest OF the wardrobe and
accoutfement Of war, craftsmanship,
and glory.
Where are the boots George
Washington wore when lie made his
farewell address to the army? And
what became Of the shoes or boots
Benjamin Franklin wore when he
represented the colonies az the
royal French court. Lincoln's boots,
which he wore when he signed the
declaration of emancipation, and the
footgear Of General Grant and Gen-
eral Lee, when the latter surren.
dered at Appomatox Court House,
would make an interesting addition
to the historical collection Of cele-
brated period" footwear. No
matter how famous the man or
woman may have been who have
worn the shoes or boots, none of
their footgear to be found in any
antique or .curio shop or museum.
The first attempt to give style to
the coverings Of the feet produced
the sandal. which reached its great
est perfection among the Romans.
The emperor Aurelian gave the
royal permission to the ladies Of
his time to wear sandals OF various
Ian ~ Ra1
to indulge in SO great luxury.
The Roman senator's wore buskins
of black with crescent Of gold or
silver on the top Of the foot, while
tho soldiers wore simple sandals
fastened by thongs.
In the reign OF Edward the Third
of England, those who worked at
the shoe trade were denominated
the gentle craft" as they pro-
duced shoes OF the most gorgeous
description. The richest contrasts of
color were elaborated and the great
est variety Of patterns devised. The
English shoe of the middle ages is
beyond all Greek, beyond all Roman
fame" Red hose was worn with
black shoes and sometimes the left
shoe was black and the stocking
blue, the other leg of the wearer
being clothed in a black stocking
and a white shoe. This shoe was
cut very low over the instep, the
heel being entirely covered, and a
band fastened by a small buckle or
button passing round the ankle
secured it to the foot.
Boots and shoes, during the reign
of Richard II were made of great
length, so that they were chained
to the knee of the wearer, that he
might walk with some degree of
freedom. OF course, only the no.
bility could afford SO expensive a
method Of locomotion. More about
boots anon.

Cost SIS, 900 Wiring
$1,000.

The residence Of e. r. Wood, IN
Lawrence Park, Toronto, Canada,
is one Of the largest In that city.
The house has over fifty rooms ana
both house and grounds are com.
pletely electrified. The lighting
fixtures Of the house, many of
which were executed from designs
by Mrs. Wood, an artist OF renute,
alone cost over $4,000. The wiring
of this house, Its greenhouse and
garage, and the grounds required
an expenditure OF well over 81, 900.
Two Electrical Ranges.
Among the electrical appliances
installed in the Wood residence
there are two electric ranges, q
completely electrified laundry, an
electric refrigerator, an electrically
controlled heating system, six cleo
trio motor-operated house pumps
and tools, electric fire place CRATES
and complete electrical equipment
for both greenhouse and garage
as well as q considerable number
of small appliances such as ELECTRIC
FANS curling irons, heating pads,
sewing machines and so forth.
The lighting of the main stair.
way Of this house is quite novel.
The electric lamps are here placed
above q glass dome so as to give
an artificial light that Is very
similar to daylight.
Like Sunlight.
So well has the scheme been car
ried out that on dark days when
these lights are switched on one
would think that the sun had just
kpeeped out from behind the clouds
Besides all this there is a speciai
electrical burglar alarm system and
the driveway, which is 1900 feet
long, Is as brilliantly illuminated
as one Of the best.Iighted boule-
wards of the city. A gang of six
electricians worked almost con.
tinuously for fifteen months install
ing this electrical Equipment.

Experts explain it by the fact
that the blind enjoy unusual free
