The Oldest Living Horse.
The oldest horse on record is owned
by Major Robert Maas, of Louisville,
Ky., who possesses papers proving its
age to be something over forty-seven
years. Ivanhoe, as he is called, is a
large bay, with a white spot on his fore-
ead, and, up to a few years ago, of a
gentle affectionate disposition, but has
grown peevish with his increasing age.
This, however, is only manifested to-
‘ward strangers, while he is devoted to
iis master and his children, who play
about him with perfect fearlessness.
Lvanhoe was stolen several times during
the civil war, but invariably made his
way back in safety to his pasture, hav-
ing contrived in some way to escape his
<aptors.
He bears on the right flank the scar
of a gun shot wound received in the
Mexican War at the battle of Buena
Wista while ridden by Major Maas’s
grandfather. It is over thirty years
since Ivanhoe has known bridle or har-
mess, but spends his days strolling about
his pasture, in which he will allow no
other horse to te placed, but will resent
all intrusions with a vigorous use of his
teeth and heels. His faculties appear
all unimpaired, with the exception of a
total deafness resulting from a severe at-
“ack of a disease prevalent a few years
220.
Far from being feeble, Ivanhoe moves
Toriskly about and will often permit two
or three of the younger children to
mount and ride him about the pasture.
He has, however, lost nearly all his
#eeth and lives upon boiled corn and
other soft food. He made his last ap-
pearance in public at the cattle fair held
in Lexington last fall, and came home
erfectly denuded of his mane and tail

Despise not Parental Anxiety.
The time will come when you will
lave neither father nor mother, and you
will go around the place where they
mised to watch you, and you find them
gone from the house, and gone from the
ield, and gor from the neighborhood.
Cry as loud afd long for forgiveness as
you may over the mound in the grave-
yard, they will not answer. Dead!
dead! And then you will take out the
white lock of hair that was cut from
wour mother’s brow just before they bur-
zed her, and you will take the cane with
which your father used to walk, and
wou will think and think, and wish that
gou had done just as they wanted you
©o, and would give the world if you had
mever thrust a pang through their dear
«ld hearts. God pity the young man
‘who has brought disgrace on his father’s
mame. God pity the young man who
has broken his mother’s heart. Better
if he had never been born—better if, in
the first hour of his life, instead of being
1aid against the warm bosom of mater-
nal tenderness, he had been coffinned
and selpulchred. The is no balm pow-
erful enough to heal the heart of one
who has brought parents to a sorrowful
grave, and who wanders about through
the dismal cemetery, rending the hair
and wringing the hands, and crying:
“‘Mother! Mother!”
The Prince Got the Matches.
In the year 1889 Prince William, now
emperor of Germany, stayed for a short
while at the Hotel Crown Prince, at
¥ehdenick, waiting for a train to take
aim back to Berlin. At about the time
when he was announced to leave the
hotel for the station he heard a terrible
sumpus in the next room, and the noise
becoming too pronounced he opened the
door to see what it was all about. He
found the old housekeeper in the midst
of numerous laundry articles, which she
was kicking about the room in great
rage, exclaiming: “These hussies of
girls are hanging their heads out of the
“windows all the afternoon to watch the
prince's departure, while I have to at-
tend to every thing. There is nota
thing to be found. What has become
of the matches ? I must return to the
Only a Rose.
A few years ago a lady living in the
‘city returned one evening from the
country, where she had been spending
the day, with a large basket of roses.
As she approached her own house, a
ragged, dirty boy followed her with such
wistful eyes that she gaye him a rose.
Before her door was opened he was be-
side her again with two other grimy
boys.
“Ef you please, mum, yell not be
bavin’ one to spare for them ?”’ pointing
to his companions. ’
“If they had been hungry and asking
for bread,” she said afterward, ‘they
could not have watched me more eager-
ly. When I handed them the roses,
they gave a shout and darted away. In
fifteen minutes the steps were almost
filled with children, pale, ragged, starv-
ed little creatures. I donot know where
they came from ; they seemed to swarm
out of the earth. I gave then: the roses
and all the flowers in my little garden,
ashamel to think bow many I had and |
how little I had valued them, while
they were such priceless treasures to
these children. Most of the children
ran ‘home’ with their flowers as if they
hadbeen rare jewels.
“Later in the evening another poor
little waif rang the bell to know ‘if this
was the house, where they gave away
flowers,’ I determined then that with
God’s help, it always should be.”
Out of this chance gift of a rose grew
the flower missions of one of our great-
est cities.
Too Much Feminine Politeness.
A street car conductor said: “Young
women in Washington indulgein a pe-
culiar sort of politeness which is more
calculated to injure the feelings of others
than any rudeness of a deliberate nature
that they could very well contrive. You
will often see a girl of twenty odd get
up in a street car to give her seat to a
lady, quite a stranger, who is no more
than middle aged. This is intended for.
a courtesy, presumably, but it is a very
silly one, because its obvious intention
is to exhibit a deference to superior age,
Now, no woman likes to find herself re-
garded from that point of view, and the
worst of it is that it is impossible for the
victim of'such a performance to show
any resentment. All she can do is to
decline to accept the place vacated,
which is not very much satisfaction,
“I myself have frequently noticed
women who had perceptibly passed their
first youth offering their seats to others
hardly older than themselves, so that it
might seem as it this was a novel way
of claiming to be young at some one
else’s expense. My observation is that
few people, however old, are otherwise
than mortified by being given seats in
this manner on the cars. Old gentle-
men are not less sensitive on the point
than old ladies.”

A Curious Clue.
Harry Sullivan, alias Gordon, a mere
boy of twenty years, was arrested in
Court street, Brooklyn, on a recent af-
ternoon, on the strength of a telegram
received by Chief Campbell from the
police of Clinton, Towa, who wants Sul-
livan on the charge of stealing $1,415.
He was employed by the State Elec-
tric Company of that city, and on the
Monday before his arrest was sent by
President Edmund Walsh to deposit $1,-
415in a local bank. He quitted the
town instead of going to the bank, and
for three days the officials searched for
him in vain. Then they found an old
newspaper in Sullivan’s room from
which he had cut a very small advertise-
ment.
Procuring another copy of the paper
it was learned that the missing advertis-
ment was a call from Orson Clifford, of
Brooklyn, for a partner with $1,000 who
would devote his money to produc-
ing Clifford's play, “Avenged.”
It was decided that Sullivan had gone
East to snap up this offer, and the
Brooklyn police were notified. A de-
tective went to Mr. Clifford’s house and
from there to the office of a lawyer nam-
ed Rhoades, where Sullivan was found
preparing to sign a partnership agree-
ment. He denied his identity at first,
but finally confessed and handed over
$1,282.89. The rest of the money had

Attended His Own Funeral.
Oaptain Ben Wakefield of Biddeford,
who lost his life recently, once attended
his own funeral, being one of the few
men who have had that privilege. He
had gone on a fishing trip down on the
Graud Banks and had been away from
home a good while without his family
hearing from him. The same season

——Says a Southern Pacific conduc-
tor: “A conductor who wants the
glory of conducting a special train—es-
pecially a presidents train—is a greater
ass than I take him to be. The man-
agement looks after you as sharp as if
you were a pickpocket, and, instead. of
letting you run the train, there are gen-
erally half a dozen bosses on the cars,
each rushing around and ordering and
counter-ordering as if the president were
in immediate danger of some awful ac-
cident. It is enough to get the strong-
est man rattled to be on one of these
trains. No, thank you, I have had to
haul the president of the road more than
ounce, but when it comes to hauling the
President of the United States I beg to
be excused.”

A Table Made of Human Flesh. *
A writer in Harper's Magazine of
February, 1855, gave the following des-
cription of a remarkable table made by
Protessor Segato: “It comprises every
portion ofthe human body transformed
into stone, destined to endure as long as
the world itself if not ground to pieces
by violence. There are reaily two tables,
one finished and polished, the other in-
complete, made of mosaics formed by
sections of human bones, brains, lungs,
blood vessels, intestines and muscles, all
as firm as marble, and showing the in-
ternal structure of each.
“Without an explanation a visitor
would suppose them to be from some
mosaic maaufactory, for they are sym-
metrically arranged in squares, triangles
and circles, with the great variety of
colors nicely graduated. Different por- |
tiors of the human body, showing the
internal anatomy, are so perfectly petri-
fled as (0 for a fine object of study for
the medical student. Even morbid an-
atomy was subjected with entire success
to this process. Animals of all kinds,
chickens and reptiles, in short, nothing
that has blood was capable of resisting
Segato’s petrifying touch.”
A great amount of railroad build-
ing is going on all over Switzerland,
sparing no mountain, no valley, “and
it is surprising to find that this most dif-
ticalt of countries for railroad engineer -
ing should possess relatively more rail-
ways than the New Englard States.”
In the latter there is one kilometer of
railway to every seyenteen square kilo-
meters of land; in Switzerland one to
every thirteen square kilometers; in
other words, the New England States
are four and a half times larger than
Switzerland, and have but three times
more railways, although in Switzerland
one half the country is occupied by the
highest mountain ranges of Europe.
“The receipts average in the New Eng-
land States about $3,000 a year per kilo-
meter; in Switzerland $5,000, which
difference is mainly due to summer
travel.”
