In Indian Boy's Odd Description of
the Horse.
Here is the description of a horse
written by an Indian boy, a student
at Carlisle, Pa. Do you think it is
sorrect, and, if not, how would you
improve it ?
‘♦The horse is a very noble quad
ruped, but when he is angry he will
not do so. He is ridden on the spi
nal cord by the bridle, and sadly the
driver places his foots on the stir
rups and divides his lower limbs
across the saddle and drives his ani
mal to the meadow. He has four
leg-; two are on the front side and
two are afterward. These are the
weapons on which he runs. He also
defends hiin.-elf bv extending these
in the rear in a parallel direction to
ward- his foe, hut ibis In* doe# only
when he is in m a.';^ravr.,cJ mood.
There is no animal like tbe horse.
No sooner they see their guardian or
master than they ulwu\.- cry ior
food, hut it is always at the morn
ing time. 1 They have got tails, but
not so long as the cow and such oth
er like animals.”

DIAMONDS AND JOCKEYS.
Diamond Joe Costen is one of the
most familiar figures afl over the
southern circuit. He carries a num
ber of fine jewels with him, which
he sells to jockeys, trainers, plun
gers and other followers of the for
tunes of the turf.
“1 have been following this busi
ness for about forty years,” he said,
“and have handled some fine gems.
I only sell to people I know, and one
of my regulations is to enter into
en agreement with the purchaser to
buy the stone back if he wishes
within five years from the date of
purchase at 5 per cent less tipin he
paid me for it. Jockeys love jewelry
more than any other class of men.
Some young rider will win a race,
make a killing, and will get to feel
ing pretty good. One of the first
things he does is to buy a lot of
jewelry, and I have made a study
of being on hand to furnish him
with just what he wants. Ono day
not many months ago I sold a
jockey $1,200 worth of diamonds.”

Artificial Cultivation of Spsngaa.
An interesting investigation now
being curried on in Florida by the
bureau, of fisheries has for its ob
ject the di*o»very and development
of methods by which the valuable
sheep wool sponge may be cultivat-
,ed artificially.
The method which promises the
most satisfactory results is that of
using cuttings. Large sheep wool
sponges are cut into small pieces,
which are fastened to an insulated
wire fixed in the water, so that the
sponges are supported a few inches
above the bottom. These small bits,
placed at close intervals along the
wire, soon heal and form an organic
attachment to' it, and very soon be
gin to grow. It is too soon to pre
dict just what the results will be,
but the indications are, so far, very
encouraging, and it is. Iiclieved that
the time is not far distant when the
sponge fisheries of Florida will be
vastly increased in productiveness
and value. — National Geographic
Magazine.
Tho Cost of Governments.
A table has been prepared and is
sued by the department of com
merce and labor, indicating that, de
spite the great size of the appropria
tions, this country is per capita
more cheaply maintained than any
other in the world, with the excep
tion of China and India, and pos
sibly Russia. It costs, according to
this, just $7.97 a year for each man,
woman and child in the United
States to run the government, as
against $9.30 for Canada, $9.45 for
the German empire, $9.54 for Swe
den, $10.09 for Spain, $11.45 for
Portugal, $11.40 for the Nether
lands, $12.40 for Cuba, $12.08 for
Argentina, $14.27 for Austria-Hun
gary, $17.30 for Paraguay, $17.40
for’ Belgium, $17.84 for France,
$21.39 for the United Kingdom,
$37.09 for Australia and $38.38 for
New Zealand. Russia’s per capita ex
penditure is approximately the same
that of the United States.
Preparing For Emergency.
Perhaps, as tho following anec
dote would seem to indicate, not all
authors belong to tho mutual ad

writer to exist among the members
of the craft.

' the request that Mr. Caine put his

“That’s a good idea,” said Page,

The island of Sachalin, north of

of Russia in 1875, is peopled by
nearly 30,000 Russian criminals ot
the worst types. Great poverty pre
vails among them and there is a
saying that “in Sachalin a man will
be* murdered for 10 cents.” Before
the outbreak of the present war,
over 13,000 Japanese visited this is
land every year with nearly 300
empty steamers and sailing vessels,
which were loaded with nsh that
were used to manure the Japanese
rice fields.
