FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
BABY DONKEYS.
A Pair o Fopater Pwta la OeMea Oats
-' Park, Saa ITimachwa. .
Tbe oblldreo have two new pet out
t Golden Gate park. Then ar two
brand new baby donkeys that are
brought oot for an boar or two dally to
the playground, and when tbey are there
nothing elite in tbe park attract any at
tention at alt from the children.
The donkey are not much bigger than
Ban Joaquin valley jack rabbit, and
each one wear a pair of eari many liaea
too large for him. They are Tery aooia-
ble and enjoy being petted by the little
folk, bnt tbe attention they have at
traoted baa tort of spoiled them. When
they get tired of being fondled, they are
just aa likely aa not to kick the nearest
child with the most malevolent inten
tion in the world. The kick of one of
the baby donkey is a trifle more seri
ous than slap from chicken might
be, and nothing pleasea the yonng don
key worshiper mora than to provoke
one of these manifestations of displeas
ure. Of course nobody thinks of bar
Bearing or saddling the little donkey
yet They could aa well think of hitch
ing a couple of lambs.
They bava pot been named yet, and
they look so mnch alike that only their
closest acquaintances among the chil
dren know them apart They are given
into Mr. Murphy's charge, Mr. Murphy
being the superintendent of tbe chil
dren1 playground, for a very short time
very day except Sundays. The excep
tion ia made because the wise people to
whom the future of tbe yonng donkey
baa been intrusted do not think that tbey
wonld be able to stand the excitement
and petting they would get from a Sun
day crowd of children. As it is, they
are surrounded all tbe time that tbey
are in the playground by children, and
tbe funny woolly little beast with the
long ears and wrinkled noses are already
threatened with dyspepsia from the in
ordinate quantity of peanut, popcorn
and candy that has been smuggled to
them.
Up to date tbe donkeys, in addition
to accepted edibles, bava devoured sev
eral dozen pocket and quite a number
of pinafores.
Tbe little beasts get quite tired out
with tbe excitement and the fondling,
and then tbey are led away to a stable,
followed by a wistful lot of children.
The idea of bringing them to the play
ground is to aocustom tbem to children,
so that wben their time shall come to
haul tbe little carta or be saddled up
there will be no difficulty. San Fran

THE BALLET SKIRT.
It
la a Seaey Frilled rettleaaU aad May
Be Adapted to Ordinary Wear.
The fussy frilled petticoat known as
tbe ballet skirt is now worn by fashion
able women under evening and danoe
gowns, but nearly reaching the ground.
First there is a close fitting yoke of
muslin, wbiob ia cut in fonr part and
reach ee well below tbe average corset
and very much below the short corset
worn for skirt dancing. On to this yoke
is set in full gathers or flat plait
wide skirt of tbe muslin, edged with a
frill of lace put ou slightly full. This
skirt reaches from the yoke to the full
depth required, and over it at tbe B
line another skirt is simulated by a deep
frilL also edged lace, and put on so
that the bottom edge ia half an inch
above tbe edge of the under lace, thus
giving an extra full and ample effect
When worn, ao wide is this skirt that
it gives tbe appearance of a multitude
of lace petticoats, and the dancer usual
ly catchee the center with a aafety pin
or a few stitches about 10 or 13 inches
below tbe yoke and practically converts
it into a divided skirt These ballet
skirt are also made for ordinary wear
in dark silk.

In a climate where for about seven
mouths absolutely settled weather may
be relied upou it pleasure outnumber
them 60 to 1. To mount one' pony ou
a clear bright morning; to ride forth
into tbe veldt with a frlendaud a brace
of pointers, with the blessed feeling
that you have not a care in the world
beyond the march of your wagiui to the
next water; to be absolutely certain of
some pretty shooting in a wild country
innocent of farms aud fences; to return
to camp toward evening with perhaps
10 or It brace of bird aud a small bock
these things, to the average healthy
male, seem a near perfection as may be
found in this vale of tears.
It is 8 o'clock on a bright April morn
tag in South Bechuaualand. The air is
full of light brisk and wonderfully ex
hilaratiog. Four gunner have just
breakfasted under the lee of their wag
on. Now, baring mounted their pontes
-the average South African horse is
seldom more tbau 14 band they ride
quietly down the hither side of tbe
shallow valley "laagte, it is called in
these parts wherein they were out
spanned, aud climb tbe farther rise.
It is a picturesque scene. The slopes
are clothed with a long growth of wav-
ing grass, now greenish yellow after
tbe rains, amid which great bowlders of
dark red rock crop up. Here and there
small patches of bine green bosh start
oot from the grassy veldt Beyoud,
crowning the valley, begins a thickish
woodland of short trees bastard yellow
wood, the Boers call them which ex
tends for some mile in front, till the
great open plain are again reached. As
the gunners ride up the farther slope
their wagon i already in motion behind
tbem, starting upou its day's trek, 17
mile to the next water. Through the
clear, nimble air cornea the crack oi
the driver's great whip and his shrill
cries, hnrled at tbe oxen, and the un
wieldy home on wheels crushes slowly
through the yielding sand. But now the
gunner bave spread ont in Hue, and
tbe pointer are already busy. Near
some bowlder one of tbe dogs feathers
a little, then stand, rigid a a figure of
bronze. The two nearest gunners dis-
mount Tbey already carry their guns
and bandoliers and ride, as men do in
tbe veldt, in their flannel shirts with
their sleeves well rolled up the arms.
There is little to encumber their move
menta. Breeches, gaiters aud stont
boots, a shirt and a shady hat are all
that a man needs in Africa.
The reins are thrown over the ponies'
necks aud bang in front of tbem, and
tbo nag will stand quietly for hours.
Now the gunners are close upon the.
pointer, still standing with rigid tail
and outstretched neck. These francoliiis
lie close in the long grass. "Where the
deuce" On a sudden up spring three
brown birds within five feet of tbe
sportsmen. Twenty yards of law, tne
gun are up, two light report from
smokeless cartridges, and a brace of the
birds bit the earth. Almost instantly a
third repot t follows, and the near gun
ner ha secured bis right and left, not a
difficult matter with these frnncolin.
But the pointer is not yet content
Another brace of birds ia found and
brought to bag within 80 yard. The
partridges are now gathered. They prove
to be tbe small Loqul irancoJin-
'N'awimpi" the natives call them
perhaps the most beautiful game birds
in tbe world. As one of them lies in the
gunner' palm for a few moments, the
bright nankin yellow and orange of the
bead, the clear, hawklike markings of
tbe breast and the beautiful shape and
feathering mark this partridge of Africa
as a gem among it fellows. Tbe birds
are bestowed in a saddlebag, and tbe
gunner mount and ride into the forest
on tbe right hand side of the wagon
road. Meanwhile their comrade have
entered the woodland more to the left
band, and their guns can be beard al
ready going.
For two bonr tbe sportsmen quietly
walk their bones through tbe forest.

gets into a (mall troop of guinea fowl

chase drives three of them into a tree,

At length, after picking up a few but
terflies in tbe forest clearings, for tbey

broad, rolling, son drenched plains,
covered with long, pale yellow grass
Through these they ride steadily boar

again a head or two of game. Now it is

THE SILK WAS CHEAP.

It wa bargain day in one of the
large down town store, and th coun
ters were piled with o toning silk of
Uiu niout tempting prices.
Two women were iudmtriously turn
ing over the pieces, and one of tbem
aid to her companion, "Yes, I'm get
ting a gowu to wear to my sister-in-law's
wedding, and tho only thing
which pussies me ia which plfoo to
take they are ail so delightfully cheap
aud tbey look so handsome. "
"Yes, it i hard to decide," admitted
the other woman, whose bored aud
weary air proclaimed ber merely the
escort The active shopper looked fresh

"Yes. Now, if I only knew what
Victoria wo going to wear, it would be
easy enough. I'm determined for ouoe
that my gown shall cast hers iu the
shade. When we were girls together,
she was glad euongh to copy my things,
but now she' married Henry' elder
brother, who has more money than
Henry has, and she doe put on such
airs."
"Yea. This is a pretty piece," sug
gested her companion, who wanted her
lunch.
"Isn't it? I wonder if it i qnito as
good aa the one that woman bos over
there. I think I shall take this Pin
sure Victoria would never know but
that it wa awfully expensive, fur I
ahull toll her that it was 3 a yard.
There won't be apiece left to tell the

she'd ever look at a bargain counter

"You would like to set this pioco In

clerk hack of them. "Certainly. Step
this way, please. Yes, tho very thing for
a wedding. We are selling will you
allow me to pass, ladies?
The two women stepped aside, and
tbe one who wa counting up how many
yards she needed cried: ,
"Why, V ictoria, is that you? 1 I've
been looking for a gown to wear at
Marie's wedding. "
"So have I," replied the lady who
had been following the clerk to the light
bnt hut I don't see anything here
that is nearly good enough. "
"Neither do I, replied the other
woman, and sho put down the piece Bhe
bad been holding lest some one else get
it "Come, Amy, wo will go."
"Will you look at this piece in the
light, madam? ' asked thaclurk.
"Not today," wa the haughty reply.

"Colorow'a a Rqaaw."
Edward, one of "the fighting Mo-
Cooks," while governor of Colorado
territory hud a good deal of trouble
with tbe Indians, and especially with
their chief, C'olorow, a great scoundrel
and a coward at heart The chief wonld
have shot the governor one day had it
not been for the family nerve of the Mo-
Cooks. The National Tribnuo of Wash
ington tell the story:
With a party of hia braves Colorow
came to Denver one day, and alter
drinking heavily of whisky told bis fol
lowers that he was going op to kill Mo-
Cook. The governor had bis office in a
two story building and rat with his
back to the door, with a looking glass
on the desk in front of bim, so that be
could see any one coming in without
turning.
McCook was expecting some trouble
with Colorow and was seated at hi desk
when tho Indian came in. Colorow had
a pistol in bis band, aud approaching
McCook he stood by bis side aud grunt
ed:
"McCook liar!"
The governor never looked up, bnt
kept on writing. -....
"McCook heap liar. repeated Colo
row, but the governor never noticed it
'McCook heap big liar," continued
Colorow, and still tbe pen scratched
away. Colorow mistook McCook 's si
lence for fear and let his pltol hand
drop nntil his arm hung down straight
In an instant McCook grouped tbe In
dian's wrist, and in another the pistol
fell to the floor.
Turning Colorow around, tbe govern
or deliberately thrust him down stairs
and out of the door into the circlo of
Indian who were waiting for the ex
pected trouble.
"Colorow s a squaw, " said McCook to
tbe assembled Indians, and giving the
chief a parting push be returned to bis
office. -
Royal Intellecta.
"Bow do royal personages compare
with ordinary mankind ns regards brain
power and intellect?" i the purport of
an inquiry from a reader oi tbe New
York Tribune, one which has probably
been called forth by some referenda to
Prince Bismarck's well known phrase
about "Austria s imbecilo archdukes, '
in connection with tbe recent death of
the old uncle of Emperor Francis Jo
seph.
To this, reply is made that, as a gen
eral rule, the intelligence of the
'anointed of tbe Lord" is not above tho
average of that of ordinary mortals.
Paradoxical thongh it may appear,
brains are not needed in any superabun
dant quantity to direct the destinies of
great and powerful nations, and ancient
as well o modern history teaches that
the most successful rulers have been
portions of a mental caliber below rather
than above the average, whereas those
monarch who were exceptionally gift
ed bave invariably shown themselves un
fitted to administer tbe destinies of the
people subject to their control.
Tbi may be explained by the fact
that dullness UKuallygoes hand in hand
with caution, which is a vory desirable
quality in a ruler, while genius is often
both iuipnlsive and impracticable.
A Noble Woman.
Then I bade good by to an honest,
earnest woman who has given her life
to a great cause. Abuse has not curdled
the milk of human kindness flowing in
her veins. Poverty has not iiuhittered
ber generous soul. Susan B. Anthony,
with her honorable 75 years, is more
alive today tbau almost any woman of
my acquaintance. Why? Because she
is iu love with a noble idea. Love be

DOT'
dor laud ot paralysis. His entire right
side was threatened with this malady.
The spiual column and base of tba
biain were a battery of pain and tor
ture, aud naught was left him but to
suffer and wait for the end.
While in this 'condition and utterly
hopeless of help (a hi physioian and
the best medical oonusel proved power
less), his attention was providentially
called to Dr. Williams' Fink Pills.
As a drowning man dutches at

toms of paralysis have disappeared and
tho original injury is rapidly improv
ing. His general health aud flesh are
returning, his usual elasticity of spirit
and vivacity are restored and an hour's
oonversatoin ia sufficient to convince
one that to Pink Pills is due a change
almost miraculous.
In conversation - with a representa
tive of the Farmer, Mr. Green said:
"I have not been on the street for sev
enteen months till two or three day
ago, but I am so much better. It is a
surprise to me aud to my friend, yea,
and to my doctor, too. Tbe fact is, I
have been at death's door. . No one
thought there wa any help tor me;
even my doctor thought I never would
be any better! But here I am walking
about a you see, and to me it is won
derful! and perhaps you will hardly
believe me when I tell you what did it
it was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People."
It is due to suffering humanity that
the story of Mr. Ureen be told. Hi
kindness of heart and generous im
pulses would rejoioe in spreading the
fame of a remedy that has brought him
from tho valley of death to enjoy the
pleasure of loving home.
His physioan is a gentleman well
known in Denver, has lived here many
years and built up a good practice. He
