hair of his mane, forelock and tail, lhe
animal ia verv handsome. It is a Stal
lion of French or Percberon, Printer
and Clydesdale blood. He is 1(5 hands
high, weighs 1435 pounds, and isofches
nut color, the mane and tail are of the
MSame hue. He is now eight year3 old
r and was foaled in Marion county, Ore
gon. The mane is' fourteen feet, the
foretop nine feet, and the tail twelve
feet long. When spread and drawn out
,to their full extent, the display of the
beautiful locks of bright hair is quite im
pressive. The greatest care is taken of
the hair. It is washed out with cold
water, no tonics being applied to it.
Before the horse is placed in his stall
the hair is drawn out and divided into
several thick strands. From his mane
four such strands are made. Each
strand is then tied around once every
six inches about to the nd. It is then
rolled up and put into a bag. For his
mane and foretop alone five bags are re
quired. He is exercised in the same
guise, a blanket or sheet, if necessary,
being thrown over him to conceal the
pendant bags. The greatest care is
taken of his health."

High-Toned Chilian Refugees.
Washington. Dec. 30. A dispatch
states that the fact was developed at
vesterdav's cabinet meeting that the

embarrassment to the administration.
In the event of hostilities between the
United States and Chili it would be im
possible for this government to afford
them any further protection. In the
event of "war Egan would be given his
passports and permitted to leave the
country in safety, but not so the refu
gees. "It seems, too, the refugees are
proving themselves a white elephant on
Egan's hands. They insist upon being
entertained in the most hospitable
fashion, and thev seem to feel their

fords is unquestioned.

Butte .Miner:
"How to kill the lottery" is discussed
learnedly and exhaustively in the New

shoots wide of the mark. The way to
kill lotteries is to stop buying tickets.
Editors who write labored editorials on
how to kill the lottery, while at the same
time they have a ticket for the drawing
in one pocket, the left hind foot of a
rabbit in another and a rusty horseshoe
