All Par Missions.
Yesterday was the closing day of the
missionary convention held in the Hroad-
way Mcthodiht church of this city. The
convention has proved a great success ,
considering the intense heat. The audi
ences have boon large and the interest
kept up to the usual degree of Methodist
fervor. There have been in attendance
nine presiding elders , thirty-two pastors ,
and a largo number of laymen from
western Jowa and eastern Nebraska.
Yesterday the chief feature of interest
was the address of Itev. Dr. Hntlcr. in
which ho described vhidly his trip from
liobton to Uarrcilly.
There was an interesting discussion of
the topics annnouuccd on the pro
gramme , various members taking part.
In the altcrnoon the time was devoted
to the meeting of Uio Woman's Foreign
Missionary society. The meeting was
presided over by Mrs. E. 1) . McCroarv.
There was a pleasing address by Mrs.
Pierson , secretary of the Woman's Mis-
sionaiy society , ot the Dos Moines con
ference. She gave some interesting in
formation concerning the work ol the
women in this cause.
Hov. Joel A. Smith delivered an ad
dress. He was formerly a missionary in
China , and in connection with his ail-
dre = s ho exhibited a largo number of
curiosities , gathered by him in China.
A question drawer followed. Chap
lain McCa.be managed this pleasing fea
ture , and added much to
the answering of the queries
handed in. One of the principal qnc.s-
tions was as to the cost per capita of con
verting the heathen. The answer agreed
to , as shown by the financial
reports , was that the cost per head was
about $8.
As on the day before , so yesterday the
ladies of the church served at noon a
very enjoyable lunch to the visitor , the
taules being spicad in the church parlors
below.
In the evening Dr. liutlcr and Chapl.iin
McCabe delivered addresses *
A committee reported n , series of reso
lutions , encouraging the pcoplo to a
larger liberality towards the missionary
cause , setting forth thn wonderful pro
gress made , present excellent condition ,

commended the zeal and wisdom of those
who were the prime movers in preparing
for the convention , and those who had
iinbhcd so excellent a programme.

Co mo Down With the Stamp.i.
The cigarmakors of this city and vicin
ity have been sorely inconvenienced by
being required to purchase their stamps
in Dos Moines. Often goods all ready to
be Kent out on some urgent order have
had to bo held here because the stamps
could not bo bought and got here in
time. Lately the men engaged in this
business have petitioned for a change by
whloli they would bo enabled to buy
their stamps hero , but now comes the an
nouncement that they will hereafter bo
required to order their stamps from Dav
enport. This will make It still more in
convenient , and will often binder trade
and discourage manufacturing here.
For the general good of the city the mat
ter should bo looked into , and an attempt
made to secure the needed accommoda
tion. _

HORSES STARVED ON THE PLAINS
An Ofllccr Tells Sonic Secrets Jaj
and Days Without a Sln or A ordure.
A tew days ago the Now York Mail and
Express reporter engaged in conversation
with a recruiting sergeant in the United
States cavalry service , and in the course
of the chat the olliccr drifted into the
discussion of tlic _ merits of horses sup
plied to the service and the manner in
which they arc furnished to the govern
ment. Not ! onf > since 000 horses were
purchased in this city , St. Louis , Chicago ,
and other largo mercantile centers for
troops in the lour big western depart
ments of the Plutto , Dakota , Missouri and
Texas , in which divisions it is estimated
three-fourths of our armv is comprised.
"Most ot our cavalry horses , " said the
rccruitjng sergeant , "are lost on the
plains in the west. No ono here east can
conceive the rigor of our western mili
tary duties or the hardships they entail
for the soldiers and their beasts. We
suppose that the great west is teeming
with verdure and for.ige , whereas the
fact is that in very many tracts of coun
try scouting parties are compelled to
ride for a week or more , at the rate of
perhaps fifty miles a day , with no grain
for their horses and vcr.y little gra s by
the way. A general scintiny of the con
demned army horses would show that
their retirement from the service is duo
more to starvation than , anything cNo.
Very often the trooper's horse drops in
the ranks from sheer exhaustion , and
others are so badly used up that they never
recover from the privation and tatiguo ,
and are linally condemned tor use in the
tield and shipped to recruiting stations ,
where they answer much bettor oven
than green horses for drilling recruits , "
"What are the physical qnalilications
demanded in the selection of horses for
cavalry service ? "
"Well , in the lirst place , none but geld
ings are taken. The government docs
not care tor stallions or mates. The ani
mal submitted for purchase should stand
at least tiftccn hands high and weigh
about nine hundred pounds. He .should
be short in the back and also short in the
postern joints. A lone-legged beast with
u badly shaped head wouldn't pass mus
ter at all. Low withers is one of the
most essential points , because a horse
witli high withers is liable to work tno
saddle torward and get sores ; and once
in that condition ho loses llesii and becomes -
comes worthless. In addition to these
speeilieations ho must bo absolutely
free from contracted hoofs , or ho won't
pass the inspection of the board. "
"In what manner are hor.sos secured
for the cavalry serviccv"
"Generally by advertising. The par
ticular class of animals desired is becom
ing scarcer every day. This , I suppose ,
is duo to the fact that breeders are giv
ing their attention to the raising of
draught horses of the Percheron , Norman
and similar stock , which are , ot course ,
too slow for cavalry purposes. It is a
singular fact that horse-dealers , as a
rule , consider the govoinmont legitimate
prey for all sorts of imposition. For
instance , at the Ia4 inspection only eight
out of sixty horses offered wore accepted.
Hostlers trotted thorn out for inspection
full of confidence that they could unload
their employers' full stock of useless
equities , Some of the animals' manes
and foretops wefo plaited and decorated
with strips of red llannel. Their tails
were done up in common bagging
of so bulgy a shape as to suggest
the probability of their being about ten
feet long. Of conr.su , thcso decorations
had to come oil' to make sure that the
tails \vcrc all there and that the manes
were of hair instead of oakum. The
eves of a horse under inspection are
closely examinned. If ho , in general
outline , is icgaulcd as worthy 01 con
sideration at all , he is submitted to a
rigorous examination which takes up
about a quarter of an hour all over him ,
from his teeth to ids fetlocKs and hoofs.
Then the hostler U directed to walk the
animal up and down the length of the
yard , and afterward to run him as fast as
the beast can go. If his net ion is cosy
he is ordered 'tied in' lor the final in
spection. The last test is a run up-hill
for a distance of two hundred yards erse
so , to see if his wind is good. No saddle
is used , The hostler simply mounts and
trots to thu starting point , riding
back as fast as a liberal appli
cation of cowhide to his beast
can carry him. If the horse passes
this muster ho is purchased and led to
the blacksmith shop to bo branded. His

It is easy enough to purchase implo

Nearly a century ago old .Jacob Hal-
baufeldo had four sous , one beautiful
daughter named Anita , and the lincst
vineyard in Kheingau. Aud jet Jacob
was not happy , for lie had aKo a .stub
born idea tnat his soil should produce a
wine that would equal the Sillcry of the
famous district of Marne. Nursing this
belief ho had sent his four sous respec
tively to Ay , Kpcrnay , Kbcims and Hunt-
\illor.S theio to learn the secrets of the
white wines of champagne.
Now , when Anita had scon about sev
enteen summers , a > ouug English stu
dent came strolling along the lUnne. and
took her beait back to Munich , whcic he
was sluil ing chemistry. It seems that
when he .sought old Halbaufels and ex
plained how deeply ho lo\cd Anita ,
Jacob had looked with supreme scorn
upon the presumptuous young man , and
inquired :
"What do you know about Hhino
wine ? "
"Only how to drink it. "
"Just so. Well , you're a blockhead ,
Anita's husband must be smart 'iioiigh
to help mo make : i wine that will excel
the best still champagne. "
"That is impossible , " said the student ,
boldlv.
"What ! " cried old Jacob , in a rage.
"You tell mo it i.s impossible ? You ?
Haven't .you just confessed you know
nothinir of Itlunc winesV"
"But I know .something of chemistry , "
said the .joung man , tranquilly ; "and i
am certain you can't produce a wine
hero like those of Champagne , mossciix ,
or still , because the nature of the soil will
not permit it. The 'Golden Plant'
wouldn't thrive here any moro than the
select wines of Burgmiilj Noiricn or
Pineau. "
"You're a fooin screamed old Hal-
baufels ; ncverthclo-s. though ho hated
the student lor those di'Jconragiiigwordb ' ,
ho had a greater ro.spcc ) . for mm , fearing
lest they bo true. i
'
And'as , I have said , the student went
back to Munich , taUing.willi him Anita's
love. From the day Jho arrived Ids
friends began to know him as the "Wino
Wi/.ard ; " for thenceforth ; hc was always
to be seen between lectures lugging bottles
tles of wine to his room , which a .select
company regularly absorbed each uight.
It was noted that the lltivor and savor of
these wines constantly-changed , and that
there was always'an odor of vanilla , or
bcrgamot , or attar , or other essential oil
about the .student and his room. At
length ono night in late autumn his
fellow-students enthused to a man over
the wine ho had passed around , and pro
nounced it the choicest they had ever
tasted.
"It is very much like Sillcry , " ex
claimed one , "but far superior to it. "
The "Wi/.ard" smiled triumphantly ,
and that was the last drinking bout beheld
held in his room.
As the holidays drew nigh old Jacob
llalbaufels sent for bis lour sous , but
they could give him no encouragement.
On'tho contrary they were agreed that
nothing moro could bo expected from
their father's vi.xoyard than an ordinary
Rhine wine. Then came the young stu
dent again , and old Jacob in his wrath
greeted him with an oath and a frown ;
but Anita , in her joy , greeted him with a
glad cry and p. caress that was lull of
compensation.
Yet picture Jacob's surprise and delight -
light when the "Wi/.ard , " nonchalantly
requesting permission to visit the wiuo
collars , lidded persuasively :
"For 1 think I can improve your vint
age now beyond the excellence of any
still champagne. "
So Jacob led him to the brimming
casks , quite humbly , for ho was overpow
ered by the confident air of the young
man.
"If I spoil this case , " said the latter ,
pausing before one , " 1 will of course pay
you for it. "
Then while the old man's eyes goggled
in his head , and the four sons and pretty
Anita ga/cd on in wonder , the student ,
with his right arm resting on the rim ol
the cask , begin to wave his loft above
the wine in a very solemn and Impressive
manner. He then turned to old Halbau
fels and. said :
"You need not keep this any longer in
the cask. It 1 now icady to bottle ; but
lira I rack and line it again , "
Hopeful , but yet a little donbtincr ,
Jacob directed that the young man's order -
dor be obeyed , and meanwhile ho limit
before him the pregnant hinges of his
rheumatic old knec.s.
Finally on Now Year's OYO the
"Wi/.ard" said :
" 1 would like to lasto some of that
most delicious wine. It is lit for castles.
What say you ? Shall we uncork a bottle
of the Sehloss Jobaniiisbergorv"
It was produced in a trice , and a glass
of it poured out for .Anita. Hut old Ja
cob could noibiilo ; his time. He seized the
bottle and rammed Urn neck of it into bis
mouth.
"All , heaven , " ho 'crjud ' , smacking his
lips. "It exceeds thd ptisannes of cham
pagne. Can you Impart the secret , joung
man ? You 'shall have Anita and 10,000
marks dower for it. "
"Agreed , " said tli | ) "Wi/.ard. "
And on the marnago. day. all having
gone well , ho handed his futhor-in-law a
slip of pajior. "It contained , " said the
bilious old crone of liingen. "this simple
receipt "Attar and vanilla , ono ounce
