AN 0U> TMCkSTER. Citctm • Tartar to the itnwt, to a waiting car. Tbo was ao In mo In both front legs tbo old fnuno quivered as if It were going to unliingo every time ho Cautiously put uls foot on tho pavement. It did mem hard to forconn old nntmnl like thin to work, and a crowd of people, who bad speedily gathered, were heartily glad when tho benevolent man seized tbo driver's arm,' and, showing a badgo of Vi**- tho Society for tho Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, threatened to arrest him If , be persisted in mauling tho beast. “Show Hilly some kindness?" said tho driver in response to tho stranger's sug gestion. “Shure that’s what ails him. He's had too much of it. Why ho'U swallow kindness quicker than a mouth ful of oats und siiow his gratitude by elcoping twenty-four hours out of a day. He’s the biggest roguo in New York, and I'll prove it to you. Whoa there, Billy! Hi! YII Whoopla!” Up went tho horse's ears as if he had heard the voice of an old friend. Tho • driver patted him on tho back and whispered: “You won’t have to work today, Billy.'' Tho chango was magical. The old nag was a 2-year-old again. He started toward his stall without »trace of lameness. Ho was turned about face toward tho car quickly, the lameness re turned in a jiflfy, and lie looked as if he wasgoing to snake oil his skin and die. “This Ts an every day occurrence," said Mr. Parker, the superintendent of tho stable. “Billy is an old trick horse and used, to travel with a circus. Ho has an innate hatred for work, and becomes lame every time that he is taken from his stall to take a turn with a car. He fooled usuli at first, .and I had thought 1 had been badly stuck in buying him, but I soon found out lie was shamming. The lameness disappears as soon no ho is hitched up, and be goespn his journey at good speed.” “Havo you any other horses with peculiar antics?” “Yes, plenty of them. Wo get many well bred animals, runners, trotters and jumpers, that havo had their day. Every beast of degreo has a weakness of 6om’o sort that gives us trouble, but we don't havo time to pay attention to their whims and they soon find it out and be come old stagers. The car stable is the last station to tho bo.nevard, and wo get a haok at all tho broken down plugs going in that direction. They are fed well and carefully looked after for the sake of economy, and a driver who is caught abusing a horse will be instantly discharged. Horses havo to be trained for this work, and it takes several months to get them into shapo to stand tho wear and tear of rough pavement and exposure to all sorts of weather, A green horse that is not handled with care will wind up in tho hospital after a week's steady work.”—Now York Tri bune.

During a conversation on a railway train a well dressed old fellow became interested in a young man. “You are just starting out in life, I suppose," said tho old follow. “Havo you any idea as to what you in tend to do?" “Nono whatever." • “What would you like to do?" “I don't know. I don’t think that I have any especial fitness for anything," “Got no leaning toward any calling, eh?” “None.” “Why, then, havo you left home?" “Well, the truth is, I was bored. My brothers and sisters are musicians, and their playing annoyed me.” “You don't like music, then?" “I dc8piso it.” “Can you sing?” “Not a note.” “Young man,” said tho old fellow, speaking with emotion, “you need feel no further anxiety concerning your fu ture. I will give you a grand oppor tunity. I am tho manager of an opera company, and I want you.”—Arkausaw Traveler. Superstitions of tho Stage. “A cross eyed girl is death to good luck on the stage,"said thoohl showman who was in a pensive and talkative mood Saturday. “They are dead sure to bring bad luck —a regular hoodoo, and no mistake. Lota of us won’t travel with ono in tho company. I won’t, if 1 know it, and I reckon I do. Tho opera company hero this week, though, don’t think so. J no ticed a twist in ono of tho eyes of the clTorus. Another bad ono is a yellow clarinet in tho orchestra. Td rather play in front of a loaded cannon. Crickety! how I suffered! Ono night when I was playing down in Jersey Hooked over the footlights and saw an old fellow with a black wig on his head blowing bad luck at mo out of tho nozzlo of a yellow clari net. I was hoodooed for sure, and didn’t get into luck again for over six months, and then only by picking tip a horseshoe in Pittsburg, Pa. 1 know lots of tho boys who won’t face one.’’—Lewiston Journal.
