they had ever been before. After the
war I started for Michigan, but while in
rhino rn T Innrneil that 111V mother WOS
dead, aai under the impulse of the mo
ment I re-enlisted in the navy, where I
have been ever since.
"I have been around the world three
times. A short time ago when I was in
San Francisco my time expired. "While
there, undecided what to do or where to
go, I heard that mother was still alive
and well, and that she was living in
Washington. I learned, too, that she
thought I had been dead for year3 . I
have saved a good portion of my earn
ings and nearly all the prize money I re
ceived during the war, and now have a
snug little estate which will keep my
mother and myself comfortable for the
rest of our lives. I left San Francisco as
goon as I heard that she was still living.
Tonight I expect to sec her for the first
time since 1862."
A YOung Girl's Terrible Death.
Parsons, Kan., July 8. Polly Taylor,
th'j 12-year-old daughter of Hon. C. II.
Tavlor. the Cherokee Indian lawyer,
For GlaM of Beer Drummer C.et Two
Uandred Thousand Dollars.
This may seem a large sum for a small
article, but it wan virtually jwiJ by a man
of great resources who hud an ingenious ex
pedient for saving the horse flesh ot the
world. About ten years ago a veterinary
surgeon who was with the army in Hombay
found that the excessive heat of that country
raused the tops of the horses' necks to sweat
freely and thereby produce sorc3 under the
leather collars. All the exjiedieiits that he
could suggest were of no avail to remedy this
state of things. One-fourth of the horses
used for draught iuri)oses were laid up by
what is called "sore neck."
This "vet" in his younger days had studied
chemistry, and ho found that sulphate of
zinc was the Inst and almost the only cure
for horses' "soro neck," but the difiioulty in
applying this preiiration lay in the fact that
tho horso had to rest during tho times of
the application, otherwise the collar would
rub it off and there- was no chance of the
horse's recovery. A thought struck him
that to mako a ziuo pad und put it under
tho collar would at any rate prove an ameli
orative, and may lie a cine. The man,
though ingeniouj in his way, was much
given to drink, and was looked upon by the
oilicers of the army as a "ne'er do weel" with
bright ideas. "While this idea was simmer
ing in his mind and lieforo ho had put it
into an actual test ho hnii)iied to bo in a
drinking bar. His linauces were at
this time at the lowest ebb, for his future
pay was mort gaged for all it was worth and
the publican refused to trust him with any
more drinks. An American drummer hap
pened to bo representiug a largo leather
house and knew a good deal of the difficulty
with which ttte American farmers of tho
southwest had to contend. The two men got
into conversation, and as a natural result the
veterinary spoke of the idea that was up
permost in his mind and said that ho thought
that he knew of a remedy or tuat most
troublesome of complaints of which all horses
in hot countries suffered. Tho American was
lerfectly convinced that ho was talking to a
man of good ideas, though bad principles,
and asked what ho would take for tho idea.
"I am awfully hard up and can get no
more drink on trust, so I will give you the
idea for a glass of beer."
"Done!"' said the other.
The American at once saw that thero was
probably millions in t,his and ho conceived
tho notion that the matter oozing from the
sores on horses' necks would corrode tho pad
and produce sulphate of zino thus tho dis
ease would provide its own remedy. He also
saw that zino, leiug a iion-oisductor of heat,
would keep the part cool. The more he
thought of it the more ho liked it, and al
though his business should have kept him in
Bombay some months longer, bo in a few
daj s took the first steamship for Liverpool
and then for Boston. Arriving at Boston he

Portrait Made from Descriptions.
A Baltimore pnblishing firm a while ago
wanted a picture of Tippu Tib, tho celebrated
trader of Central Africa. It happened that
at that time no picture of the king of tho
slave dealers had come from Africa, and so a
gentleman of this city undertook to collate
for tho use of tho publishers all attainable in
formation about tho personal appearance of
that worthy. Ho found in the writings of
Cameron, Stanley, Van Gele, Gleerup nnd
Dr. Lenz some minute descriptions of Tippu
Tib, and with the aid of this material tho
publishers made a picture of tho big Central
African. Since then two woodcuts made
front photographs of the trader havo como
to hand, and it is goon that the Baltimore
picture deserves to rank almost with tho en
gravings as a very good likeness of Tippu
Tib. Probably not once in a hundred times
could a portrait lo made merely from descrip
tions that would, on the whole, so nearly re
semble the subject as in this case. Suc cess
in this Instance was duo largely to the fact
that most of the writers, regarding Tippu
Tib ns tho most striking personality they had
met in Central Africa, gave very minute nnd
detailed descriptions of him. New York Sun.

placed on a Shelf. Hearing itself so well
spoken of by the Jeweler, tho Clock deter
mined to put on its best face, it tounu useu

been running only one day before tho Vase
remarked;

No sooner had the Clock agreed than the

mistress is very nervous."
Then one of tho pictures observed:
'Make yourself solid with .he children by
