A sad eyed horse hitched to a two wheeled butcher wagon blinked lazily and whisked flies from himself on Jones street, between O’Farrell and Geary streets. He was an ordiuary quadruped with a large head, which he wore in a dejected sort of way. as though he was indulging in melancholy thoughts. Dang ling from one of the hit rings was the long hitching rope, which the custodian of the wagon had neglected to fasten to a post. Suddenly the horse cast his eyes to starboard and slowly wagged his right ear. An abandoned newspaper had drift ed down the street and became caught in the cable slot. The horse was interested. He lazily wandered over to the track and examined the paper. The free end of the hi toiling rope dropped through the cable slot. Suddenly the horse jumped clear off the ground, jerked his head up, plastered his ears close to his bead, reared on liis hind feet, pawed the air with his fore feet, gave vent to a loud snort and stampeded down Jones street. It was not his fault that he broke his speed record. This horse was a peace ful animal, with an inclination to the plodding career of a plow horse. But he was compiled to assume a rapid gait because his rope was wound around the cable rope and he was propelled by steam, as it were. On he sped down Joues street, around the corner and into O’Farrell street at a gait he had never traveled before, while veal cutlets, cuts of beef, porterhouse stakes, kidneys, lamb cho[>s and liver jogged out of the wagon and became the trail which the butcher boy followed frantically in his efforts to catch his beast. Nothing got in the way of the horse but dogs, and they added to his misery by leaping into the air and snapping at his nose. An enthusiastic procession of urchins raced madly in the wake of the wagon and cheered tho animal on to greater efforts of speed. Down three blocks of O’Farrell street rampaged the equiue, creating as large a sensation as would a mouse iu a semi nary. At Powell street his career ended, The hitching rope came iu contact with the cross cable of the Powell Street rail road and was cut in twain. The horse was holding back so hard that the reac tion threw him on his haunches, and be fore he could recover bis equilibrium half a hundred citizens were holding him down. The butcher boy gathered up as much of his scattered meat as the dogs had not devoured, and in a few minutes the yel low horse \va9 plodding iu the wake of a hay wagon, munching purloined hay.— San Francisco Examiner. Chivalry In a llootblack. On tho comer of one of the business streets of the city the other morning a shoeblack had just finished polishing the shoes of a well dressed and gentle appear ing man. The latter was unfortunate in having u deformity which compelled him to wear a shoe on one of his feet with an exceedingly thick sole, thus endeavoring to make up mechanically for what na ture had denied him. “How much shall 1 pay you?” he asked of the boy. “Five cents, sir.” “Oh, but you should have more than five cents for polishing my shoes,” said the gentleman, tapping the thick sole significantly with his cane. “No, sir,” said the boy; “five cents is enough. I don’t want to make no money out o’ your hard luck.*' The customer handed ont a coin, laid his hand on the youngster’s head for a moment and passed on.

A coroner out went recently reasoned out a verdict more sensible than one-halt tho verdicts 'Usually rendered. It ap pears that an Irishman, conceiving that a little powder thrown upou some green wood would facilitate its burning di rected a small stream from a keg upou tlie burning piece: but not possessing a hand sufficiently quick to cut ‘bis off was blown into a million pieces. The following was the verdict, delivered with great gravity by the official: “Can’t bo called suicide, bekase he didn't mean to kill himself; it wasn't "visitation of God” bekaso ho wasn't struck by lightning; be didn't die for want of breath for be hadn't anything to breathe with: it's plain be didn't know what he was about, so I shall bring in —Did for want of common souse. Green Dag. Pulling II Delicately. He was a couutry parson auil a good fellow at heart, and ho liked to put it delicately; and so he finished up his ser mon Sunday: “And, in conclusion, my friends, we will now take up the collection, and i trust 1 shall offend none of the cheerful givers who so regularly contribute to, alas! 1 am afraid, too frequent demands on their charity, if I suggest that I now possess a most urnple and varied collec tion of buttons, and what we chiefly need now la some needles and thread— and a little cloth.’’—Exchange. Kll.ee Beclu.' Prize. It is now moro than ever probable that the Academy’s biennial prize of 20,000 francs, which the Due de Broglie declined will be awarded to M.—or, ns ho prefers to be called. Citizen—Elisee Reclus. The special committee has decided already in bis favor. The only objection to the choice of this hard working savant, who is just on the point of bringing ont the seventeenth volume of his immense work, “La Geographic Universel,” is to be found, of coarse, in his political opinions, which are frankly communistic and anarchical. He is, moreover, not only a theoretical but a practical advocate of “freedom in everything, 1 ' for some years ago he gave his two daughters in marriage to their suitors with no other ceremony than that of linking the hands of the couples and giving them his paternal blessing. M. Reclus, however, has abstained from all active share in politics for the past twenty years, so that it is not thought likely that the Academy will be influ enced by bis previous history, and its members probably will vote the £800 to the learned man who Is aptly described by his intimates os “a lay monk.”—Paris Cor. London Telegraph. Trying Days for the Fat Man. These are tho days when the man who tips the scales at 250 and wears the largest sized collar has a delightful time on the cars. He boards the train with a genial smile —for all fat men are jolly and are born for the express purpose of laughing their way through tide vule of tears. Iu a few moments, however, lie does not feel half so gay. He fans himself with his paper, but that only gives the perspiration a chance to assert itself in large globules and play tag down bis neck and chase itself across hisrnbicnnd face. He must have tho window up, so he makes a grab for the side spring and the lifter. But the window stays right where It is. He is now hotter than ever. He wades in mattered expletives. He anathematizes the railroad corporation. Ho turns nervously in his seat, bnt his clothes stick to him liken porous plaster. He tries to make a dignified swoop for the ice water tank, but he bnmps into seat after seat and is forced to make a dozen apologies, each serving to make him madder. And thus he pursues his tortnous jour ney with wheezes of disgust, while he swelters and melts and continues to try to keep cool.—Albany Argus. Large Herds of Wild Animals* Though wild game has been decimated in number within the past few years by unscrupulous hunters, it is not all gone yet. Still it is even rare to see even an antelope closo to the city, though now and then a small band of blacktail deer will come down from the Ijills to drink at the city springs, or a stray elk may be seen between here and Sheep mountain. On this account the sight witnessed by Charles Bock, who came in from North Park, was an exceedingly interesting one. When just this side of Pinkhampton, neat, the Mountain Homo ranch, about thirty-five miles from Laramie, he saw four bull elk, ten deer and a herd of an telope, so numerous that he could not count them, grazing altogether in a little park close by the roadside. He did not disturb them and they paid no attention to his presence, so he took a good look. It reminded him of a visit to the zoolog ical gardens in some eastern city to see snch a number and variety of animals congregated together in so small a space. —Laramie (Wy.) Republican. Good Plot for s Fare©. The following singular will case comes from Hamburg. Home years ago there died in Schleswig, Germany, a govern ment official named Nielsen. Some lit tle time before he died Nielsen be queathed to his man servant 20,000 crowns and to his cook a like sum, on the condition that if either of them mar ried the 20,000 crowns should revert to the other. As soon as the old gentle man died, however, the happy possessors oftnis fortune went to the altar and were married. The couple then took up their residence in Hamburg, where they have resided for the last six years. Recently there arrived from Copenha gen a relative of Herr Nielsen, who by their marriage considered the spirit of his relative's last will and testament had been departed from, and demanded the restitution of the 40,000 crowns. The matter is now before a court of law.— Loudon News. Envelopes! Envelopes!!

Whitehead Dear Sir—At your request I will state my case. Some years ago, I contracted malaria in its most violent form, while living at Newark, N. J. I consulted va rious physicians and took numberless preparations recommended as “sure cures,” but it stuck to me like a brother —or more like a mother-in-law. I fi nally came south, and while here tried now remedies, said to always cure ma laria, and it stil 1 stuck to me, and you know the broken down condition I was in when I came to you. You put nie to taking your P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium,) and I improved rapidly, and am to-day in as good health as I ever was—in fact better. As a rein edy for a broken down constitution it has no equal. Yours, etc., july28dl2tw2t T. I*. Cottle, Worrying about things you can’t help is as foolish as to throw stones at tho sun when its shining doesn’t suit you, Blood will Tell. Of course it will—that is if it Is good healthy blood. It will glow In the cheek, and tell tho story of perfect physical health. If It does not, if the complexion is devoid of color, the muscles weak and flaccid, something Is wrong, and something ought to bo done about it at once, for in such cases delays are dangerous.

Doctor (meditatively)—Well, it varies. In women, for instance, the longest gen erally is between twenty-nine and thirty.

Queer Places to Swarm. An Itulian organ grinder at Eighth and Main streets had a rather novel ex- perience. When he started to grind his machine a swarm of bees suddenly poured forth from the barrel and fairly made the Italian dance to keep out of their way. The swarm then took np Its quarters in the electric light globe just overhead, and when the electric light man came along to clean that globe there was an other seance similar to the first He suc ceeded in dislodging the insects of in dustry, however, and the last seen of them they were wending their flight heavenward.—Kansas City Journal.
