Do Horses Ever Cry?
Did you ever see a horse cry? Many peo
nle believe that horses do not weep, but
those who have had much to do with these
faithful creatures know that on several oc-
casions they will shed tears, as well as ex-
press sorrow in the most heartbreaking ,
manner. In the west, where the hardiness
of the ponies causes the riders to almost
overlook the necessity of providing for their j
needs, it is quite common when fteweatber
is extremely cold to leave an unblanketed
pony tied up for two or three hours when
the temperature is nearly *ero and while
its owner is transacting business. In this
case the suffering is evidenced by the cries.
which are almost like sobs, and unmistak-
able tears freeze onto the cheeks like icicles.
When a horse falls in the street and gets
injured, the shock generally numbs its
senses so much that it does not either try
or groan, but under some conditions an In-
jured horse will solicit sympathy in the
most distinct manner. I remember a favor-
ite horse of my own which trod on a nail
long enough to pierce its foot. The poor
thing hobbled up to me on three legs and
cried as nearly like a child in trouble as
anything I oan describe. The sight waa a
very touching one, as was also the crippled
animal's gratitude when the nail was pulled
out and the wound dressed.—St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
Wherein Men and Women Differ.
Some cynic hew said that a man talks .to
show how much he knows, but a woman
delights in telling what she doesn't know.
However that may be, there is certainly a
different character to the personal confi
deuce of men and women.
The outward current of a woman's life
will often flow as smoothly over dead and
buried hopes a3 a river ripples over a
drowned body. She will volubly relate her
small trials and triumphs, but ths deep ex-
perisoces of her heart are seldom bruited
abroad. But let a man meet a disappoint-
ment in love, for instance, and he bscomes
first moody and morose, then he takes to
inflicting his woes upon hia friends, who
Often find it difficult to know how to con-
sole him, not mention a brutal lack of
interest In griefs of »ny but of the briefest
nvraticoL ^
► Oa the whole, perhaps the woman s way
is more agreeable, since her hearers are not
put to such »SV<iES tests of friendship.-
Philadelphia Times.
Dangers of Compulsory Arbitration.
Competition may be killed by compulsory
arbitration or it may be carried to the most
harmless extent and through the honest
efforts of a jury to decide what skilled ex-
perts are not nble to decide. 'I he objectors
to compulsory arbitration have sometimes
said that it would result in slavery for the
V&rkihgman. TLe advocates make light
of this. But really and seriously, is it not
slavery when a man who wants $3 per day
for his labor can 1m compelled at the point
of the bayonet to work for §1.80 per day.
' There would be no fear it seems to me ot
capital going out of the state or out of the
country under the regime of compulsory
arbitration in industrial affairs, for it
would gladly seize upon the results of sucli
n regime to compel a rise in prices to se-
cure a combination which the law insisted
upon.—Carroll D. ^ri^t. ijjJg>rum,
Diamond Market of the Future.
"Chicago," says a diamond expert, "is
soon to be the greatest diamond market in
the world, because Chicago is today the
largest retail market, and wholesale deal-
ers must follow the set of the current.
Xearlv fS,000,000 worth of diamonds were
sold in that city lfist year. It is a saying in
Europe that a lady without a title does not
wear them, but here everybody wears them.
They do not indicate great wealth—merely
taste for that kind of jewelry. Before the
Prussian siege Pans was the ceriterofth
trade. Just now London is. 1 he best dia-
monds sold are from broken sets in Europe,
from Brazil and a few selected stones from
Africa."—Philadelphia Ledger.
Eccentric File.
"There is at the executive mansion a so
called 'eccentric file,' on which all letters
from palpable cranks are put. Most of
these contain threats and warnings, rbts
file has been kept ever since the episode ot
Guiteau, who wrote many such notes be-
fore he shot President Garfield. An en-
tirely sane office seeker the other day sent a
lock of his own fiery red hair with his ap-
plication for the place, saying that he un-
derstood that character could be divined by
a person's capillary traits."—Boston Tran-
script.
A Remark For Denver People.
The following will be appreciated by Den
ver people who are familiar with the white
conical shaped ash receptacles the city law
compels them to have: Five-year^ld Henry
brought home from Sunday school the les-
son paper, on which was depicted Job
fering up a sacrifice. His mother asked
him what the picture was. ''Oh, nothing,
was the prompt reply, "but Job standing
by his ash pit."—New York Tribune.
A Dainty Breakfast.
It is a pity when there is little appetite
for breakfast to waste much ol1 it
but a few strawberries or a little fnshlj
stewed rhubarb will sometimes bring about
wi artificial appetite for niore strengtheiv
ing food. A poached egg served a bit of
toast which has been soaked in the strong^
•st broth makes s breakfast to be depended

The number of foreign residents in Spain
is small, numbering only about *25,000. The
emigration from Spain has been in some
years as high as 125,000. Four-fifths of the
emigrants settle in Spanish America, and
the remainder in the Spanish African pos-
sessions.
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn,
good and ill together. Oar virtues would
be proud if our faults whipped them not,
and our crimes would despair if they were
not cherishcd by our virtues.-Shakespeare.

A l»uery About a Great EtIL
When a man is presented with a
whip or a cane or a watch, what law
is there to prevent the papers saying
so in plain English? It has become
rather monotonous to hear of a re-
spectablogentleman being' 'whipped"
or "caned" or "watched." but the
temptation to be facetious is no
doubt too great a temptation for the
energelic reporter to withstand.—
