    THE SCBANTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 22, 1895.

tDurrns many yeans." said the pro
fessor, '! have devoted myself to the
tudy of animals, nut merely to the
habits and traits of character general
ized 'by the average naturalist, but to
' their -language, their inner-lives In
deed, to their psychological prompt
ings. And I have made a specialty of
the horse. You have doubtless noticed
that a horse Is almost constantly work
ing his lips while engaged at labor or
while resting, and it occurred to me
that. In contrast with the average mor
tal, this mwuth industry must mean
something aside from a mere convul
sive Instinct. It does it Is a sign lang
uage, and I have mustered It. I take
many walks among the horses, and I
will now set forth the result of my
latest stroll."
Then the professor proceeded with
the following recital, which, with the
exception of the technical wording so
dear to the specialist, Is an exact re
production: A number of horses stood In a north
side car barn. About the place was an
sir of dilapidation, in appearance the
tiorsee were not only tired and sadly
worn, but seemed to be depressed by a
spiritual weariness.
"Well." said the Iron firay. bowing
somewhat stiffly to the Old Koan. "how
do you feel this morning?"
"I am hardly boisterous, though I
can't complain of overwork." Old Koa
answered, lazily lushing at a fly that
buzzed about his hocks.
"llut rather of negVct." Iron Oray
suggested. "I know how you feel; I
know that you would rather have at
tention paid you. even though It might
Involve an Imposition of labor, for there
Is nlways gome satisfaction In feeling
that one Is useful."
Old Koan sighed distressfully, reached
around and sadly it himself in the
fl.inlc. 'Yes.", lie said, "for the knowl
edge that you are a factor In the move
ment at the world gives more pleasure,
even though attended by slavery, than
could possibly be gleaned from a free
dom which means neglect. What was
that you. were about to tell me this
morning when that mule broke In upon
us?"
"Oh. something told me by one of the
oldest and wlsejt horses In the town
lie has learned to understand many
of the dlsagreeahle sounds made by
man. and the other day he heard two
men talking on the front platform of a
erosi-town car. One of the men seemed
to be much Interested In discoursing
UKn a horseless carriage race set forth
by th. Times-Herald. It is to take
place or. the Sheridanroad."
"A horseless carriage race, did you
a'.'"
"Yes. carriages without horses."
"You mean a bicycle race."
'iXo, I mean Just what I say."
For a long time the Old Roan was
silent and meditative. And then the
troublous play of his countenance,
the movement of his lips was so rapid
that the professor was not able to catch
his exclamations, but it was plain that
his emotion was strong. He strove to
calm his agitation, for being a horse
he had hoise sense, but it was some
time before he could with proper dig
nity express himself. Finally he said:
"That settles It."
"Settles what?" Iron Gray asked.
"Settles us our race. I am not given
to a light expression of opinion. While
others were talking I have remained
silent not that I was lacking in infor
mation, but because that I have ever
held that those problems which most
concern the horse race must be dis
cussed with slowness and gravity. I
also understand many of the queer
noises made by man, and I remember
once that I stood outside a playhouse
at niirtot and heard a great voice shout,
A hone! A horse! My kingdom for a
horse!' 'But what would be his shout
now ? Would he offer to exchange his
kingdom for a horse? No;, you would
hear him shout, 'My kingdom for a bi
cycle or a horseless carriage" "
Iron Oray coughed: "Ah. I see that
you have thought deeply. But are you
wise enough to forecast the send. and
have you philosophy enough to accept
It?"
"To forecast - requires no wisdom,"
Roan replied, meditatively wiping his
mouth on the edge of the trough, "and
to a eu apt it Implies no philosophy.
' "Then you think that after awhile
there will be no work for horses?"
No work It will be all horse play."
"But will nt sentiment still hover
about us? Will not romance tangle Its
long fingers In our mane?"
Old Roan laughed and scratched hlm-tr-YT
with his hind leg. ""Why, how silly
l oir '.re tor a bright horse. Don't you
know that machinery is knocking out
entlment? Do you hear of any more
ylitiin.! and bugjy -courtships? Ah. they
wer the ships that passed In a moonlit
nigiir; tfriy were anchored In the harbor
of rw-'et memory, and the waves that
play a'ojut them sing a iad song." The
n'id hnrs( was silent for a few minutes,
ru lving to wipe his eyes with his tall.
After a tlm he continued: "Courtship
now Is a blycl race. It Is no longer
Inb-nsiiy of wooing; it Is speed.- The
old man and the old woman are drawn
Ty a hors, and their old buggy rattles
'f.long the ro.id. They are going to
church. Suddenly from behind comes
a 'hi yl.' and past them whizzes the
darghter and her accepted lover, the
young man who won a road race. I
was unce the pet of a girl. About my
neck she would put her arms and whis
per her S'crets In my ear, and at even
ing she would bring me lumps of sugar
and laugh gleefully while I ate them.
The i.th-r'd.iy I was standing at a wa
tering trough when the daughter of
that once chnrming creature cams along
on a wheel. 'Oh, that horrid horse,'
she cried as she whirred past. 'Why
do they allow these unsightly beasts to
stand about blocking up the road?'
Tes, for us there appears to be nothing
left iiut humiliation, and I am thank
ful that my grandfather did not live
to see It. 'He was a soldier, and In one
of the most desperate charges of the
war; acting fluttered above him. Once
It drooped into his eyes; the hand that
had held It had fallen. Hut another
hand seised It. another form was in
the saddle, and away my grandfather
dashed, wildly and proudly bearing the
glorified sentiment of his country. And
when evening came to spread Its black
shadows over the blood-darkened field,
brave and gentle men stood about my
grandfather to speak words of praise,
to touch him softly with their hard
ened hands. He lived many years af
terward and died In the consciousness
that his race was noble. It was well,
(or had he lived machinery would have
broken his heart. Here comes that
mule again."
"How you gettln fauna? now?" -the
mule asked, bowing with mock polite
ness. "Las' time I wus In yere you
peered ter be grlebln' 'bout suthln."
"Oh, why don't you learn to talk
horse?" Old Roan asked.
"Whufs dat?" The mute jolted him
self with laugh. "I talks like de
tawd made me, an' data mo'n you gen
ermen does. Ur, huh, huh.' Been hold
In' yo'ae'f 'bove me er mighty laung
time, but yor comln' down now. Suthln'
dun drapped, I tell you. I yered you
talkln' 'bout yo' gran'daddy. Nebber

"No. did your - ,
"Nebber mind whut I've seed. But I
had one all de same, an' I lay he wus
one o' de Unas', singers In,' de whole
country." , - ,
"Your grandfather was art ass" Iron
3 ray declared.

dat what made him slo er ss. Whut

downfall of the horse." Old
Cni sadly answered.

"Huh. Is de boss fell down? Why

Is down, why doan he git up?"
"Sir." severely replied Iron Oray.
"you haven't sense enough to under
stand that a great revolution has come
upon the world. It has even touched
so low a creature as yourself, and yet
you exhibit no concern."
"Ef It's touched me I doan know It.

Thing tech me In er tender place Is

"Why. you poor fool, don't you know
that machinery Is getting aside your
usefulness? Don't you see that elec
tricity Is doing your work?"
"Den Is much erbletged ter 'lec

It suits me ev'ry time da gits suthln

You'se had It futty nigh yo' own way

You genermen ain't right bright In yo'

"We will pay no attention to him,"
sal J Old Roan. 'Perhaps afttr all there
may be a new horse. And he may find
companionship with the new woman."
The mule laughed. "Yas. dar will be
er new hoss, an' yon whut da gwlne
do wld him? Da gwlne pack him down
an' send him way off yunder fur folks

STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York. Agu. 22. Stocks were feverish-
today. The bulk -of the busi
ness, as usual of late, was In the Indus
trials. Tobacco was very erratic. The
atock opened at 94, bounded up to .
and closed at 93. Sugar dropped from
10S4 to 106. Toward the clos, how
ever, the stock was taken in hand and
marked up to 110. Chicago Oa
dropped to 594. and rose to 617g. Oper
ators In railway and standard stocks
paid very tlotle attention to the move
ments of the Industrials, and Railways
ruled strong throughout. Speculation
left off firm. .Net changes show gains
of to in the Industrials, except
Lead, which fell lal per cent. Total
sales, 269.000 shares.

Tobacco.
The greatest discovery of the age I
A certain, pleasant, permanent
cure.
A lifetime's suffering ended for
16.00.
Why smoke and spit your life
away? Why sutler from dyspep
sia, heartburn, and drains on your
vital forces?
Stop using tobacco, but stop the
right way! Drive the niitotlne from
your system by the use of this
wonderful remedy.
Narcoti-Cubh is warranted to
remove all desire for tobnuco In
every form, including Cigar, Cigar
ette and Pipe Bmoking, Chewing
and Snuff Taking.
Use all the tobacco you want
while under treatment, and in
from four to ten days your "hank-
erlnir" anil "omvlnor" will dluan.
pear the weed won't taste good.
Then throw away tobacco for
ever. Narcoti-Curk is entirely vege
table and free from injurious in
gredient. It never falls to give
tone and new vigor to the weakest
constitution.
Remember Narcoti Cchb does
not deprive you of tobacco while
effecting a cure; doesn't ask you
to buy several bottles to be eu titled
to a guarantee; doesn't requires,
month's treatment; and, finally,
doesn't enable you to stop tobacco
only to find yoursslf a slave to the
habit of tablet chewing.
