Farther Hetcnrdlnjr the Defeat and Cnptnre of Dr. Jameon. LONDON. Jan. 4. The ColonlaJ Office received a dispatch from Johannesburg at 4 o'clock this morning saying that all Is now quiet there. An official dispatch received at the Colonial Offlce fr6m Sir Hercules Robinson, the Governor of Cape Colony, say?: "De Wett (Sir Jacobus de "Wet!, the British agent at 'Pretoria), wires: 'Everything Is quiet and no further serious disturbances will occur. A deputation from the Johannesburg reform committee came over yesterday evening, giving guarantees to keep the pace and maintain order. I waited on Present Kruger and informed him of the guatantees. He gave me the assurance that, pending your arrival, if the Johannesburg people keep quiet and commit no hostile acts or in any way break the laws cf the country. Johannesburg will not be molested or surrounded by the IJurnger forces. The deputation was highly grateful for this assurance and pledged the Ultlanders to preserve peace and order. I take thh? opportunity of testifying in the strong est manner to tHe great moderation and forlearance of the government of the Transvaal under exceptionally trying circumstances. Its attituJe toward myself was everything I coal 1 wish. The prisoners have Just arrive.!. The casualties on their side are sail to be severe anl on the side of the Burghers very light." Another dispatch from ir Hercules Robinson to .Mr. Chamberlain reads: "De Wett wires that Jameson's wounded number over thirty. They are all at Xrugersdorp and attended by doctors. Their names and the details of their wounls cannot j et be given. The number of killed is estimated at seventy, but no reliable information is obtainable. The bodies are still being picked up on the battlefield and buried. The Cape Town papers state that Dr. Jameson, Sir Charles Wllloughby and Captain White (a brother of Iord Annaly) are lodged In Pretoria jail. Grey anJ Coventry (Captain Charles J. Coventry, of the Hechuanaland police and a brother of the Karl of Coventry), are wounded. Th Boers captured about five hundred prisoners." JAMESON SHOWED BRAVERY. Later In the day a dispatch was received at the Colonial Oiflce from Capetown, dated noon to-day. giving the following details of the invasion of the Transvaal by Dr. Jameson and his followers, as gathered from the local press: "There is no doubt that Dr. Jameson yielded after he had lost at least twenty-eight men. The battle lasted from 3 o'clock in the afternoon until 11 ot night. Dr. Jameson led the three principal attacks and his men distinguished themselves with great gallantry. The Boer position was a right-angled one, and Dr. Jameson attacked it at one point and in entering the angle had the fire of the Boers on his front and flanks. The Boers were much superior in numbers and their position was unassailable. Dr. Jameson and t-A men were taken prisoners at Krugersdorp, and were afterwards sent to Pretoria. Dr. Jameson was not wounded. The Cape Times states that eighty of the men of the British chartered company were killed. Johannesburg is quieting down and the people are disarming." The Colonial Offlce to-night received the following telegram, sent by Hon. Sir Walter Francis Hely-Hutchinson, K. C. M. G., to Mr. Chamberlain. Secretary of State for the Colonies, and dated Jan. 4, 1S9C: "Press accounts state that, on the evening of Dec. 31. Dr. Jameson arrived in the vicinity of Krugersdorp. The next morning he attacked the Boers, who were entrenched in a strong position. The Boers numbered 1,3X. Dr. Jameson was repulsed, but tried to move ly Randfonteln. to Itoodeport. and was r topped at Dorinkorp. On the afternoon of Jan. 2 heavy fighting took place and the state artillery came up. Dr. Jameson was outnumbered and some of his men were nearly starved, many of them having been without food for three days. Their horses were exhausted and they were forced to surrender. Dr. Jameson lost eighty men killed, besides the wounded. It is estimated that th total loss will reach 210. The loss of the Boers is reported as four killed and a few wounded. It Is claimed that fifteen Boers were unhorsed by one volley fired by Dr. Jameson's men. No ofllcers were killed." A private cablegram received here this afternoon from Pretoria says that President Kruger has declared that he Is willing to make satisfactory concessions to the ITltlanders, or foreign population of the Transvaal, whose demands for representation, in view of the fact that they contribute practically the whole revenue Of the republic led to the ill feeling which resulted in Dr. Jameson's raid. The St. James Gazette, this afternoon, thinks that Kmperor William's message to President Kruger, like President Cleveland's to Congress, is a warning which phould not be disregarded and furnishes evidence of a combination of the powers against Britain. Continuing, the St. James Gazette urges the British government to "drop the Armenian nonsense, make an alliance with Russia, close the understanding with the Dreibund and. in any case, push on with the armaments with unsleeping energy." The Globe says: "It is an insult from the German government collectively; and not only from the Emperor alone." Continuing, the Globe dwells on the necessity of strengthening Great Britain's defenses and remarks: "There is no war party here, but the entire empire would so become were the words of President Cleveland and Emperor William attempted to be followed by deds." A large deputation of merchants and others interested in South African matters called at the Colonial Office this evening for th purpose of urging the government to take steps providing for the protection of their friends anl relatives. Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain. Secretary of State for the Colonies, replied to the representations made by the members of the delegations, paying that so far as could be sen further disturbances were improbable. The British government, he said, sympathized with the undoubted grievances of the t'itlanders. Regarding the, action taken by the government in the matter of the sudden advance of Dr. Jameson, he sail that th government had done Its full duty. More than this It could not be claimed that th government should have done. Before it was Possible for any representation to have een made to them from any quarter they acted in the most energetic fashion imaginable, trying to stop the raid and to avert further mischief. Mr. Chamberlain said, in conclusion, that the ministers of the government promised to adhere to tbdr obligations under the convention of lv4. and that they would continue to uphold that convention and all its provisions. From this position nothing that has occurred could possibly, force them to recede. iiostii.i: to mr.i.Axn. Sentiment of German In Regard to the Invnitloa of the Trnnnvnnl. (Copyright. lSK by the Associated Press.) BERLIN, Jan. 4. The invasion of the Transvaal by Dr. Jameson and the forces of the British South Africa Company has brought u; all the latent feeling1 of hostility to England and has evoked an outburst similar to that produced by President Cleveland's message In America. The general belief that the duplicity of British statesmen is deliberate and in pursuance of their pollcj- of keeping Europe dlvlled into two camps, in orier to facilitate English aggressions and encroachments in Africa and elsewhere, has received supposed confirmation in the news of Dr. Jameson's venture. In spite of the disavowal of the British Secretary of State for the Colonies, Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, of any knowledge or responsibility for tho step taken by Dr. Jameson, little doubt is felt here that it was prompted Jn high quarters, and the weighty terms of the Empercr's message are interpreted as Indicating the same mistrust of the English protestations which Is felt in government circies. Everybody understands that the Emperor's message to President Kruger was not one of mere Impulse, but was decided on and drafted after a grave council of Ministers and It must, therefore, be regarded as an open pronunciamento of a change in German policy towards Great Britain. The immediate news of the Invasion of the Transvaal was received on Tuesday evening an J the Emperor summoned the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Baron Marshall von Bierbersteln, and Dr. Kayser, Director of the Colonial , -Office, to lV)tsdam and spoke to them in strong terms of the breach of international law. Later, an official note was tent to the British government, asking, curtly, the meaning of Dr. Jameson's raid and what steps would be taken to neutralize It. Moreover, it is asserted on good authority the intention to land German sailors at Delofcoa bay was only abandoned on the receipt of the news of Jameson's defeat. The consent of Portugal had been asked for the transit of troops across Portuguese territory. Another statement, made on good authority Is that Germany has already come to an agreement with France to arrest the British advance in foutli Africa and that 1,3) German volunteers, -well equipped, -will start on board a

North German-Lloyd steamship during the coming week for Delagoa bay ia order to assist the Boers. At the New Year's reception at the palace. Emperor William was frigid in Ms treatment of the British embassador. Sir Francis C. Laseelles. It was remarked that his Majesty bareJy addressed a few words to him and eyed him sternly. On the other hand, the "Emperor's reception of the United States embassador, Mr. Theodore Runyon, was most cordial. Besides the usual congratulations, his Majesty took pains to manifest the undisturbed relations of intimacy between Germany and the United States, talking with Mr. liunyon 'most pleasantly and amicably for some time. The anti-English feeling has been all along fed by the Blsmarckian press, which has reproached the government for "truckling to English Insolence," but the Emperor and the government have hitherto withstood these taunt3. Now, however, a vigorous anti-English policy may undoubtedly be anticipated. The Cologne Gazette says that "the remarks of the British press in regard to the telegram sent by Emperor William to President Kruger. of Transvaal, need not alarm the Germans. All Germany upholds Emperor William. Just as three weeks ago England in her position regarding Venezuela, now Europe upholds the Boers. It 1 to be hoped that the British paper do not Imagine that their threats will exercise the slightest Influence on the attitude of the German government." Incidentally, this has helped Germany to view the British-American difficulty with different eyes. The anxiety here to take part in the American loan show a thl3. The bankers of Berlin, Cologne and Frankfurt fell over each other in their haste to have a share in it. and the United States embassy was overwhelmed throughout the week with Inquiries as to the precise terms of the loan, proving conclusively that American credit is unimpaired in the money market here.

SOUTH AFRICAN TRAITS. Edward Itebstook Compares English AKcrrenftlon to Boer Patriotism. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 4. The Globe-Democrat says: Mr. Edward Rebstock, of Givelo, Matabeleland, South Africa,' who holds extensive mining; claims in the territory controlled by the British South African Company, and who fought under Dr. Jameson during the two months' conflict which took place before Matabeleland was taken from its native ruler, arrived In the city yesterday and Is staying at the Laclede. In a few days he will again sail for his new home. During the last month he has been at Rolla, reviewing his course of studies in mineralogy. His interview. In the GlobeDemocrat, supplying information as to the future of the gold regions in South Africa, will be recollected by all who take an interest In that country. "I am not surprised," he said, "at the news which has been flashed to England and to this country with reference to the conduct of the British South African Chartered Company. It should be borne in mind that In the present instance the invasion of the Transvaal or the Boer territory is not an invasion by English troops, but by the troops of the company which I have named. The company, of ' course, has the moral support of the country it represents. In other words, certain concessions are guaranteed it in its so-called march of civilization. The civilization is carried to the natives of South Africa with a sword in one hand and a dollar in the other. .. The dollar secures the services of volunteers to seize the lands of the native .-chiefs; the sword does the rest. But the company is bound to maintain its own volunteers and police. You see, therefore, It has been empowered to take what It can, taking on itself the risk and the cost of securing the possession. It has the recognition of . the British government in Its mission. Its attempt to enter the Transvaal Is nothing more than a filibustering expedition, as is known to all who have any knowledge of the recognized rights of that republic. Even Joseph Chamberlain, the pseudo-Radical, who seems to have Imbibed Salisbury's Jingo spirit since Salisbury supplied him with office, endeavors to creep out of the position he had formerly assumed on his hands and knees. This is not due, however, to a love of the Boers, but to a fear of resentment on the part of France and Germany, which have South African interests of their own. "I must say 1 feel sorry for Jameson. I feel sorry because I feel he has been used as a tool by Cecil Rhodes. Rhodes is the representative-in-chief of the British South African Company in South Africa, as the Duke of Fife is Its representative-in-chief in England. The latter, however, is a figurehead. Dr. Jameson is the company's administrator In South Africa. To think, therefore, that Jameson would have moved toward Johannesburg without the knowledge, if not the instructions, of Rhodes, would be like supposing the Secretary of War in this country could move troops down to Mexico without the knowledge of President Cleveland. Rhodes has become immensely wealthy through his association with the South African Compan" and he sticks to a gpod thing when he finds it. But Jameson must bear the responsibility. "Jameson, by the way, is a remarkable man. He is a Scotchman by birth, and, as with most of his countrymen, his appreciation of the dollar is about a? great as his want of appreciation of a joke. But he has all the Scotch determinatiQn and force of character. This was strikingly illustrated in his march on what is now New Matabeleland. Some of the volunteers, after a month's march, were about to rebel against Us continuance, except it was to be rewarded by greater financial results. Jameson got up and made a speech to his men, and, before he had concluded it. they all fell in with his views. In his attempt to enter the Transvaal, however, he had a task which few men would have undertaken. I take it. judging by the point which formed the scene of conflict, that he had his men started from Bechuanaland. in the neighborhood of the Kimberly mines, and struck across the country for Johannesburg. My surprise at the attempt Is all the greater, since Jameson must have had In mind the fate which the English troops met at MeJuba hill some fifteen years ago, if my memory serves me correctly. There. I think, there was hardly a soldier left to tell the tale of the slaughter. As to the number of soldiers in the service of the South African Company, I think that, six months ago, it was about six hundred. These are all volunteers, and were at Bechuanaland. In addition, there are about five hundred border police. The volunteers are made up of citizens in the service of the company. They enter the volunteer service only on condition that they are to be free to accept or reject the terms upon which any expedition Is to be undertake. They are. therefore, free agents. To those who took part in the expedition to Matabeleland the terms offered were l.2G a day, all clothing and food found, and large tracts of land if the expedition terminated successfully. I have no doubt that in the filibustering expedition against the Boer3 the inducements were greater. "Most people who know the Boers will not have much hesitation In coming, to the conclusion that they have seen about the last attack by England. Tho Boers are great fighters. From the time he is a child, the Boer is trained in the art of marksmanship. The killing of game, the protection of herds, the life of the bush, all go to make him a perfect shot. Then, he can live where an Englishman would die. He does not know what it is to suffer from hunger or exposure. He is as tough as an Indian on the warpath. Man to man. no English soldier can hold a candle to him. He heartily hates the Englishmen. Should one enter a saloon where a Boer is taking a drink he will turn down his glass as a mark of contempt. The cause of this is not far to seek. While the Boers have succeeded Jn establishing a republic and In maintaining it, their country is nevertheless occupied by a large number of foreigners, mostly Englishmen, although there are some French, Germans and a handful of Americans. The total foreign population is about sixty thousand; the Boer population is about fifteen thousand. "The Boers have adopted laws which completely prevent the predominance of the foreigner In their government. For example, the restrictions with regard to the power of voting are many. The schools will teach only the Dutch language. The foreigners, especially the English, object to this. They claim that they are the people who contribute to the wealth of the country, and that they should have the predominating voice. In this view they are sustained by Cecil Rhodes, who has been doing not a little to arouse feeling against Dutch rule. So far as the question of the production of wealth Is concerned, perhaps the foreigners are right. The Boers are men who follow purely, agricultural pursuits, with the exemption of a few who are small merchants. How the condition of things which at present exists will terminate I cannot sav. One thing seems to be settled, and that is that the Boer will ever resist British aggression." JnnifRon "Well Known In Montana. HELENA, Mont., Jan. 4. Dr. Jameson, the leader of South African British Company, achieving such - notoriety in and around Johannesburg, Africa, is well knofn

NINE MEN ENTOMBED

DISASTROUS CAVE-IX AT TUG AX.A LEE 3IIXE, VICTOR, COL. Shaft Closed with Earth and Roclc "While Some of the Employes Were Descending In the Case. ' VICTOR, Col.. Jan. 4. A terrible accident occurred about noon to-day at the Anna Lee mine of the - Portland Company, on Battle mountain. Nine men were caught by a big cave-in, and there is little chance of saving them. The victims are: Superintendent Sheldon, foreman Lewis, Jack Malloy, Mike McGuirk, Tom Malloy, Cosgrove, Paddy Meelund, Thomas Harmon and Sheldon. The four last named were going down in the cage when the cave-in occurred. They were In the cage between the third and fourth levels, when tbe shaft pinched. It Is possible that they have been thrown into one of the drifts and are safe, but no tidings can be had from them. The work of rescue was started atjOnce, and great efforts are being made to reach the men. It Is doubtful, however. If this can be done In time to save them. There is great excitement in Victor In consequence of the accident. The cave-in began thirty-five feet from the top of the shaft. It is be lieved that it will take a week or ten days to rescue the entombed miners. As the shaft on the Anna Lee is about nine hundred feet deep, It can be readily seen that a great amount of work will be required not only to clear the shaft in order to. make a passageway to tne ieveis, out aiso to make way in the stations and the slopes which are Included in the cave-in. The cause of the disaster cannot be def initely stated, but' it is known that, the timbers were insufficient to sustain tne great, weight, both lateral and perpendicu lar, to which they have been subjected. About two weeks ago the snart or tne Anna Lee -shrank to such an extent near one of the stations about, the middle of the shaft that the cage, in which there were three men at the time, would not pass down. The engineer reversed and brought the men up. This was the first indication that the workinjss were closing in, and efforts were made to remedy the trouble. One Body Still In the Ruins. ST.

"One thing which gives an interest in life to the boys on a farm," said the man from the country, "are the attempts to capture the various wild animals hidden beneath its surface. In any good-sized farm there are usually a number of these mostly foxes and skunks and woodchucks, the rabbits confining their burrowing operations more to the woods. The problem of how to secure these creatures, so aggravatingly near, but so very completely out of reach, has from time immemorial perplexed the juvenile rustic understanding and brought out various solutions. The most common methods of operation are, of course, drowning and smoking the animals out, but after one has carried to a woodchuck hole in buckets the small reservoir of water necessary to fill it, he loses his enthusiasm for the former method, while the latter can only be used where there are two holes, one above the other on a side hill, so that there is a draft to allow the passage of the smoke. "For this reason the commonest and surest way of getting the animals is simply to dig them out, having first, of course, made sure they are at home. WThile foxes and skunks appear a more tempting prize in the end, the prince of game in this kind of pursuit is the woodchuck. He Is more thoroughly at home In the ground than either of the other animals, and is extremely shifty in his ways of avoiding pursuit. A woodchuck hole, in the first, place, is quite a marvel of subterranean architecture, running along under the ground thirty or forty feet, and often further, and being divided into all sorts of mazy turns and blind alleys. To get at the owner of the burrow you often have to dig out all these turns and may even then lose him, because all the time you are unearthing him he is digging away himself in the opposite direction and filling his tunnel after him so completely that you may miss him entirely. He can dig at a rate of speed, too, which may tax you to keep up with him. His last trick. Just before you reach him, is to dig straight down and then cover up his body entirely. In this way many a woodchuck already won has been lost. "A trick worth knowing ,when dealing with animals In holes, when you have nearly reached them, is a way of taking them out with a. stick, which in the long run affords a large saving in human hands. A fair-sized stick is cut and a deep notch made at the end. This notched end is then thrust Into the animal's fur and twisted around until a wad of hair and hide, catching on the prongs, is wound up around the stick. The animal can then be hauled out. Wrhile not calculated to add to the happiness of the last hours of the game, this is found to be a popular substitute for hands among hunters in securing animals which are blessed with any fair number of teeth. "An improvement on smoking out animals In use in some parts of the country Is to lay a loose train of gunpowder as far into the burrow as possible and touch it off. In this way the hole may be filled with a smudge which no lungs can resist, and in a short time a sneezing, half-suffocated animal will come popping out into the hands of its persecutors. "The meanest method of getting out game, however, is an improvised method of ferreting which is sometimes employed. Compared to this ferreting is an act of piety. A fair-sized mud turtle is secured and a piece of cloth or cotton waste is tied behind him close up to the base of his tall. This is saturated with kerosene, the turtle headed into the hole and a match applied. Under these circumstances, it is surprising what speed can be gotten out of a turtle. He starts out on a brisk gallop, and in a few moments he has reached the private boudoir of the woodchuck. When the latter sees this Impromptu torchlight procession in the way he moves on; the half-fried turtle comes hurrying after him, and, preferring the society of mankind to broiling, the unfortunate animal comes out . to be mur-d-rrd with a club. There isn't any specific this sort of thing, but there ought to be.M diiAJii S1BSSSS1SSSMBSSSSSSBSSSSMSWHBSSSSIB ... WICKED PRACTICAL JOKES. Certain Men Who Took Mean Revenge for Real or Fancied Slights. New York Mercury. The desire for revenge is a failing which may be attributed to most human beings, and although to do so may place one within reach of the law. there aje very few people who will forego punishing an enemy if an opportunity presents itself. Some of the methods employed are queer and eccentric, and happily do not always have a serious result. Many of these revenges, as in the following case, may be attributed to disappointed love, which seems to especially turn the brains of youthful people: In the Rue de Tolbiac, Paris, there Is a saloon at which on Saturday, and Sunday evenings dances used to be organized by the young people of the district, who enjoyed themselves under the watchful eyes of their parents or guardians. Among the dancers at these fetes was a young man who had vainly paid his addresses to a fair damsel. Instead of taking the rebuff in a philosophical manner, he resolved on vengeance, . and, being a druggist, bethought himself of a means whereby he might upset the festivities.- He went to the saloon on a Saturday evening provided with a bag containing a powder which produces the same effect as snuff 6"a the olfactory nerves, and bestrewed the floor with it. The result more than realized his desire. Couples had to abandon the mazy waltz and give themselves up to violent sneezing, and finally the party broke up before the usual hour. Encouraged by the success of his trick, the druggi3t returned to .the charge on the following Saturday, but, unluckily for him. was detected in the act. The company. In the utmost exasperation, decided that he should be evicted then and there, but the druggist showed fight, and, seizing a footstool, hurled it In the direction of his antagonist, knocking down a girl of sweet seventeen. This was the signal for a general scrimmage, in the course of which blows were freely exchanged, amid a chorus of sneezes. r Eventually the druggist was arrested by the police, who had been summoned to the spot, while a man who had an eye considerably damaged in the fray was removed to the nearest hospitaL ; .

Chief Justice Holt. The wife of the great lawyer was a lady of exemplary virtues, but of a verjr shrewdish disposition so shrewdlsh. in fact, that when at one time he fell 111 it was no secret that the Lord Chief Justice was in rather Jubilant expectation of her demise. The lady, however, seemed to be determined to disappoint him, if possible, and in order to pique him put herself under the care of Radcllffe. The doctor instantly saw an opportunity worthy of his genius, and. in order to have- his revenge, took the most zealous and assiduous pains to preserve this most troublesome thorn in his adversary' pid- Ln,4fr his skillful treatment the patient rapidly recovered her health, and survived her husband many years. The vicar of a north country town some time ago was made the victim of a cruel hoax. Orders with his signature forged thereto were sent to tradesmen, newspapers, solicitors, detectives, and even clergymen, asking them to perform various services for the vicar. Both the victim and the recipients of tho letters were put to a great deal of trouble, and the clergyman to some expense, through some person's desire to thus revenge himself. , A very curious revenue was that or tne assistant of a London clockmaker who was recently discharged by his master. At midnisht there was a tremendous noise in the shop. The police rushed In and much alarm was caused. The dismissed employe had set all the alarms to strike at that time; he evidently intended to surprise his master, and most certainly did so. Possibly the following incident may serve as a moral to adorn this article. A cat belonging to a man in Kankakee. 111., became so troublesome that he decided to drown it. He waded out into the stream and plunged the cat beneath the water. Then he discovered he" had stepped into a hole. In a few minutes he was drowned. The cat went home alone. UNAPPRECIATED IIOXESTY.

Pride and Fall of a Man Who Made an Effort to Me Honest. New York Sun. You can't always tell about honesty. Sometimes you see a man making a great show of It, Just for the sake of the show, not for the sake of the honesty. The other day a man vsent to the postoffice and asked for two 5-cent stamps. He laid down his dime, took his two stamps, put them in a pocket case and went away. Three or four days afterward he had occasion to use one of them. Just as he was about to stick it on the letter he had written he noticed that It was a 6-cent stamp instead of a 5-center. "What do I carer he said to himself. "If 5 cents will send the letter, will." Then it occurred to him that the clerk who had sold him the stamps was out 2 cents for the mistake. "I can't help It," the buyer argued. "It wasn't my fault, and It's too far to go to the postoffice Just for 2 cents. It's honest, of course, but it's only 2 cents. How it would paralyze the clerk, though, to have me come in and rectify his little mistake for him. Make him feel good for Christmas sure. Probably he makes such mistakes frequently, and Til bet mighty few men go back to make them right. It's easy enougn to kick when the thing's against you, but this is different. Somebody ought to kick about these stamps anyway, hard and good, to somebody way up. They're Just like the fives in size, shape and color. No wonder he made the mistake. By Jove, I'll go over and see him." So the two-stamp buyer put on his overcoat and hat and went out into the cold and tramped over to the postoffice to make a show of his honesty. There was a long line of men waiting their turns to transact business at the stamp window. Tre honest man waited patiently and used up several dollars' worth of rime trying to give back 2 cents' that didn't belong to him. At last he got his place at the window. "I bought these two stamps here the other day," he began, "for 5-cent stamps." Those in the waiting line began to crowd up to hear the kick, and the face of the stamp clerk took on an expression Just a shade more tired than usual. "But they're 6-cent stamps," went on the honest man, "and the clerk must be out 2 cents, so I want to give them back." The stamp clerk opened his eyes a bit wider and stooped down to get a good look at the honest man through the little half window. A murmur of approval ran through the crowd. The honest man swelled out with the consciousness of his own uprightness. The stamp clerk fooled with his stamps and then said: "You didn't buy 'em of me." "No," answered the honest man, "It was another clerk. I don't believe I'd know him, though, if I should see him. I wasn't long enough at the window." "Well." said the clerk, very distinctly, "I can't take your 2 cents. The other clerk has lost it, that's all. .The government Isn't out anything, and I can't take it. I'll give you five-cent stamps, if you like," and he reached out for the six-centers. The honest man was the surprised one, so surprised that for a moment he couldn't think of anything to say. Tnen he blurted out: "Why why don't you take 'em? They're not mine. I paid for fives and got sixes." The clerk leaned forward and drawled out so that half the men In line could hear it: "How do I know that you are not an Inspector laying a trap for me?" The honest man thrust his hahds in his overcoat pockets and strode away with a muttered: "Well, I'm blanked," and half a dozen of the men began to whistle, "There Are Others." CURING VICIOUS HORSES. IIctt a LltUe Pin May Rrlns; the Most Obstinate to Submission. Detroit Free Press. The other, day I happened to be In a circle of men who were all lovers of horses and were posted on many peculiarities of the equine nature. "Do any of you gentlemen Know a sure way to cure a horse of kicking?" said the down-Easter, addressing the others deferentially. "Why," answered the man from the plains, "the way we fix a kicking horse is to tie one of his forelegs with a rope to the hind leg on the other side. Then, as soon as he starts to kick he Jerks his front leg Off the ground and goes down in a heap. Two or three doses of that treatment will cure the worst case you can find." The talk ran along for a little while, and presently came to the best method of dealing with a balky horse. Various old-fashioned ways were suggested, and finally the down-Easter went them all one better with the following system, which he claims as his own: ... "It's a nice little trick. You walk up to a horse's head and pretend to fool around a little, and then, as quick as you can, run a pin through the tip of one of his ears, and let it stay right there. You know the ears are a horse's tenderest point; he can't do anything without his ears; he can't think without his ears. Well, as soon as the pin goes through his ear you can make up your mind that he knows it because it hurts. He probably thinks it is some new kind of a fly that won't shake off, and the whole force of his mind is centered In getting away from that fly, so he does the only thing there Is left-that is, tears away at full speed. I don't believe that scheme ever failed. There are balky horses that 11 let you build a fire under them without moving, but there ain't any that'll stand still and let you stick a pin through one of their ears " "Do you mean to say that there ever was a balky horse that would stand still when there was a fire burning under him? I asked, incredulously. - "Certainly I do. They won't let the fire burn 'em, though; they simply kick it away with their hind legs as fast as you can build it up." m . . . "What is your way of making a horse stop biting?" asked the New York man. "Why, the pin'll answer Just as well as before. When a horse snaps at you, catch him by the nose and run a pin right through between the nostrils. He'll stop biting fast enough. If he begins again, do the same thing once more, and before long you will have him cured for life." The Telegrapher's Ear. Philadelphia Times. "Any operator who is accustomed to work by sound with men every day can tell In an Instant Just who Is working the key. There Is something peculiar in the way each operator opens and closes his key. Of course, it is entirely a matter of education of the ear. Another evidence of the susceptibility of the aural nerves to education is the fact that an operator can receive and copy a message and at the same time distinctly hear and comprehend everything that Is being said by others in the room. He can be very busily engaged at anything, and yet his ear will take in everything that Is said near him. Another peculiar thing Is the fact that a telegrapher working art night will lay his head within two inches of , working Instrument and sleep as soundly as though in bed. He will not be disturbed In the least until his own offlce call Is sounded by the instrument. That will awaken him In an instant. Of course, each sound Is exactly of the same degree of intensity, end It is only the training of the ear mat causes him to distinguish his office call when even asleep." .A Leap-Year Club.
