••HOhS" >KLLIM, (X KENTUCKY.
ialn That Are Not Always Conducted
With Absolute Honesty.
Danville cor Cincinnati Tribune.
A ''boss'’ sale in the back counties of
Kentucky is an event. There has been
one in progress here this week, and It has
drawn spectators like a dog fight on a
dull day. There were buyers from Chi
cago. Philadelphia and New York, and
there were spectators from all over this
region. Where several "hosses are gath
ered together there will you also find a
Kentuckian.
One of the most Imposing figures at a
Kentucky "combination” sale is the auc
tioneer. He is a "good feller.” He seems
to know ana to realize that the success
of the affair rests upon his shoulders. He
has a voice like a tragedian, ana struts
upon his small stage like Macbeth In his
ravings. A nag of uncertain temper and
unknown pedigree will be led before him.
The auctioneer will take a photograph of
the animal with his mind's eye ana pro
ceed to his business.
“Now, gentlemen,” he will say, "here
is a jewel. 1 believe, sir, that.you will get
a bargain in this animal. My, but ain't
he a good one! Kook at those eyes and
those legs, at that mane and tail. Why,
Sir, his every act denotes his breed
ing. He springs from the loins of an
ancestry that has been noted for years
and years for its speed and stamina. He
is as gentle as a dove, and will make a
horse that any lady can drive with perfect
safety. What am I offered to start this
one. Who will make It a hundred?”
The bidding begins, and the auctioneer’s
tongue works as fast as the wheels of a
dynamo. He gets bids everywhere, liter
ally grabs them out of space, and If you
but nod your head or wink your eye in his
direction he calls It a bid. If a buyer Is
anxious to procure the animal the auc
tioneer will notice It, and he will get bids
from all sorts of mysterious places in the
crowd. Some auctioneers will do this. All
of them will not, of course.
The system of "by-blding” came very
near ruining the home'trade at some
points in Kentucky where auctions were
held before the practice was stopped.
This was when the craze for trotters
was at its hight? and any sort of an ani
mal, just so it had a pedigree, would
sell for a big price. Fictitious values
were placed on. them, and the excite
ment at the sales was great. Many a
trotter has been knocked down for SIO,OOO
in Kentucky, hundreds for half that
sum, and thousands at prices ranging
from SI,OOO to. $3,000. W’hen the dead stal
lion Bill Boy was put up for sale he
brought $51,000, and there were not over
five bids made far him, either. It was a
very select party of bidders that surround
ed the auctioneer, and before the
sport opened up champaghe flowed like
spring water.
It was a very common thing a few
years ago for a trotting horse of fash
ionable Mood lines, but with no record
and with no progeny that was famous,
to bring from'sß,ooo to SIO,OOO, and year
lings and 2-year-old sold at fabulous
prices. It was a craze, gambling specu
lation—like dealing In boom town lots
and paying SI,OOO per acre for $25 farm
ing land. The sharks took advantage of
the fever. Swell buyers would come to
the auction, and a horse that they want
ed would be put up for sale. The vis
itor would make legitimate bids, and a
friend of the owner of the animal would
stand by and run the price up. When
the lemon was squeezed about as dry
as It could be, the trap was sprung and
the horse changed hands.
Another scheme was to put an animal
up, have a friend or several friends run
the price away up, and Anally knock the
horse off to one of the gang at a fancy
price. This would not be a sale, but
the other animals bred the same way
are related by blood to the “bait” horse,
would sell well on. account of the high
price the original had commanded. Swell
fanciers from the money centers were
made to pay dear for the love and ad
miration of royally bred trotters. But a
change came at last.
There were too ifiany trotters and not
enough buyers. Dealers became suspicious
of the sales and there was a flunk. Trot
ters got to be a drug on the market, and
they sold cheaper than hogs. Yearlings
and 2-year-olds that were once converti
ble Into gold at a ratio of about 1G to 1
could not be given away. The shark's oc
cupation was gone. The depression lasted
for two years and then confidence began
to return, and now trotters are beginning
to bring their full value. The sales of
late are clean and square, and no no dis
reputable methods are countenanced If
they are discovered.
I heard of a smooth bunko game that
was worked on a tenderfoot from the east
who came to Kentucky to buy a stock
farm and go Into the breeding of trot
ters upon an extensive scale. He had
more money than brains, but could not
be instructed in the horse business. He
bought a blue grass farm and then looked
around for a stallion to put at the head
of his stud. He sought the advice of an
expert. The expert told him he knew of
a very finely bred son of the great Ham
bletonian that could be bought for $25,000.
It was a rare bargain, and the tenderfoot
thought so, too. The expert thought so
much of the animal that he would go
halvers with the young breeder. Che ex
pert left the tenderfoot to study over the
matter, seeing that the game was landed.
Then he proceeded to buy the horse in
question, secretly, for SB,OOO. The trade
was made between the tenderfoot and the
ostensible owner of the stallion, on a
basis of $25,000, the tenderfoot putting up
$12,500 and the expert $12,500 (so the ten
derfoot* believed). The result was that
the expert made $4,500 clear and still owned
one-half of the stallion, which he finally
disposed of to his partner for $15,000,
leaving him a clean $19,500 on the deal.
Tickling Ip the John.
An English gentleman traveling in
Prance, says Tid-Bits, was very much
annoyed at the slowness of the pact* and
wishing to get the coachman to Increase
file speed, he tried to speak to him in
trench; but as the coachman did not
understand, the gentleman lost patience.
At last ho thought that if lie could not
-make him understand he might at least
frighten him by using some high-sounding
wotcts, and he roared into the ear of the
coachman, "Westmoreland, Cumberland,
•Northumberland, Durham!"
The coachman thought that this was
some terrible threat, and it-had the de
sired t ilect, for he at once whipped up
is horses and Increased their spe-d.
A BAD CONDITION.
In no section of the country is
here greater need for Liver Medi
cines than in the South, and this
has encouraged unscrupulous
persons to take advantage of peo
ple's misery and offer them all
sorts of stuff as cure-all for Liver
1 roubles. Their preparations are
sold to the druggists at a low
price. And the big profit to the
druggist is the road by which they
reach the public. Beware of any
dealer who tells you that any Liv
er Medicine is just the same, or as
good as Simmons Liver Regula
tor, put up by J. H. Zeilin & Cos.
You know it by the Red Z on the

TESLA’S NEW OSCILLATOR.
Dlstnrbnnce wild Demon.tratlon of
the Earth?* Electrical Charge.
From the Century Magazine. '
In his oscillator Mr. Teslar has not sim
ply anew practical device, but a now im
plement of scientific research. With It,
if he has not as yet actually determined
the earth's electrical charge or "capacity,”
he has obtained striking effects, which
conclusively demonstrate that he has suc
ceeded In disturbing It. He connects to
the earth, by one of Its ends, & coil in
which rapidly vibrating currents are pro
duced, the other end being free In space.
Wih this coll he doejwactuaHy what one
would be doing, with a pump forcing air
into an elastic foot ball. At each alter
nate stroke the ball would expand and con
tract. But, It Is evident that such a ball,
If filled with air, would, when suddenly ex
panded or contracted, vibrate at Its awn
rate. Now. if the strokes of the pump be
so 'timed tihat they are in harmony with
the Individual vibrations of the ball, an in
tense vibration or surging will be obtained.
Tae purple streamers of electricity thus
elicited from the earth and pouring out
tO' the ambient air are marvelous. Such
a display Is seen In the Illustration, where
the crown of the coll, tapering upwagfi In
a Peak of Tenerlffe, flames wich the out
burst of a solar photosphere.
The currents which are made to pass in
and out of the earth by means of this coil
can also be directed upon the human body.
An observer, mounted on a chair, arid
touching the coll with a metal rod, can,
by careful adjustments, divert enough of
it upon hlmSclf to cause Its manifestation
from and around 'him In. splinters of light.
This halo effect, obtained by sending the
electricity of the earth through a human
beiqg—the highest charge positively ever
given in safety—is, to say the leagt. curi
ous and deeply suggestive. Mr. Tesla’s
temerity in trying the effect first upon his
own person can be Justified only by his
close and accurate calculation of what the
amount of the discharge from the earth
would be.
Why a. Dog Comes nt a Whistle.
From the Boston Transcript.
It is so common a thing to whistle to a
dog and to have the animal respond there
to, that perhaps nobody ever stopped to in
quire into the reason of the matter; but,
after some thought and a deal of inves
tigation, we think we have reached w
solution of a problem hitherto unanswered
If indeed, It ever were considered.
We take it to be a tenable theory at the
outset that the dog being an animal of
rare intelligence has naturally the same
antipathy to the piercing sound of the
whistle that obtains among the Intelli
gent portion of the human race.
And right here let us say that we con
sider tt a piece of unwarranted assump
tion on the part of man to dignify, his
thinking powers, by the high-sounding
name of reason, while characterizing the
same faculty In the dog by the deprecia
tory title of instinct. We suspect if the
dog were given the opportunity to state
his side of the question he might claim
that he had the reason and man only the
instinc].
But let that pass. It being wholly prob
able that the dog has a natural and con
genital abhorrence of the human whis
tle, It Is not at all unlikely that when
the exasperating blast of this whistle first
fell upon the outraged ears of the prime
val dog it aroused a spMit of vindictive
ness within him, and Be rushed at the
offender with murderous Intent. In pro
cess of time, however, while the dog con
tinued to rush toward the man at the
sound of the latter"s whistle, only the
force of imitation remained, while its
Impulse had utterly changed. Whereae at
first he sought revenge, now he responded
as to a friendly invitation.
But It will be observed that the effect
upon the dog's temperament 4s still per
nicious. Undoubtedly It is being whistled
to so continually that causes the dog to
be nervous and Irritable, and to be sub
ject to distemper and chorea In his youth.
When he becomes older and his nerves
are hardened, he still Is liable to hydro
phobia, which signifies “dread of water.”
This because the man's whistle has to be
wet occasionally, and the dog. be it un
derstood, not only hates the whistle, but
the element wherewith It is kept in or
der.
We think we have now shown the con
nection between the whistle and the dog
and the philosophy of the latter’s aver
sion to the former, and why It 4s prone
to ruin his disposition and overwhelm his
Intellect.

“Saved My Life”
A VETERAN'S STORY.
“Several years ago, while in Fort
Snelling, Minn., I caught a severe
cold, attended with a terrible cough,
that allowed me no rest day or
night. The doctors after exhaust
ing their remedies, pronounced my
tease hopeless, say
ing they could do no
more for me. At
this time a bottle of
AYER’S
Cherry Pectoral was
sent to me by a
friend who urged
me to take it, wfcich
I did, and soon after I was greatly
relieved, and in a short time was
completely cured. I have never had
much of a cough since that time,
and I firmly believe Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral saved my life.” —W. 11.
