The Northern Pacific Railwny com pany uses a lariio number of jprivate lino telephones at various places throughout the length of iU roads, which have been heretofore leased from the Boll Telephone Company, through whose territory the road runs. A few months ago, says the Seattle Press-Times, by circular letter from head quarters," the Bell telephones were ordered out, and wero replaced by infringing telephones of other man ufacturers. The change, in its nsual course, came to the attention of the counsel of the company, who decided that the guarantees of the manufactur ers were no protection, and it was hazardous to subject the Northern Pa cific Railway company to later litiga tion and the payment of large damages, so last week a circular was received by all otlices discontinuing the infring ing instruments, and the Boll tele phones have been ordored replaced.

The Mail managers are in the front rank of this age an age whose slogan is progression and enterprise. As a public mentor The Mail well deserves the confidence the people are reposint; in it. It would be quite a hard task to sug gest a name for rival papers which would not smoulder in obscurity, but for a timely story which recalls to us the proper nom de plume. The story is as follows: "A couple of gentlemen were seated in a Lon don coach bound for an interior village. One of the gentlemen in quired the name of the coach, to which his companion replied, 'I'm not imformed, but should judge its name to be Regulator all coaches go by it.' " "Regulator" is what we should .style your contempora ries, as The Mail goes by 'em, so to speak. Jacksonville ews. J. E.

Old Pat Nolan, the celebrated steeple chase jockey, acquired a considerable fortune in the gala days of the sport between the flags, and. having laid np treasures enonsrb for his wants in this world, proceeded to build a house at Sheepshead Iay, says the Philadelphia Press. hile it was in the course of construction a countryman came along and. after regarding- it with interest, said: . -- , V. r . -.. ; - . . Fatey. ye wint over the walher jump . to get the money to build that house." V Yes."' responded Pat, knowingly; "an" it's miny's the toime. Moike, Oi di Jnt go over the wather jump to git the money to build that house." Jack Batchelor at one time owned, the celebrated mare Princess. He was robbed going down to the track one evening and couldn't think of any easier way to get his money back than to ran the mare in two races that she was eligible for on the nest day's pro gramme. It looked like butchery, but " Jack did it. One of the races was a stake event. . He started -Princess and won. and immediately after sent her to the post in a parse race, which she also captured with ease. "A man has got to get even some way," said Jack, "an' I guess I got there." l"ncle lob. the famous old colored retainer at the lielle Meade farm, is a Chesterfield in his way. On one occa sion President and Mrs. Cleveland paid a visit to Gen. Jackson and, of course, they inspected the famous racers. Bob led them out one by one until Iroquois stall was reached, and it was with much pride and dignity he exhibited the winner of the English derby. "What a -beautiful horse, and how proud he looks!" ejaculated the lady of the white house. ' ) 'Dat's case he knows who's lookin' at him, Mrs. Cleveland," responded liob, removing his battered chapeau and bowing like a eoftrtier. THE CALM AND CANNY MULE. Entitled to Oextlt tor More Sense Than Ilia Half-llrothar, the Bono. - - "Horse sense" has become a byword for a certain practical sort of intelli gence, hut according to Prof. N. S. Shaler, "mule sense" would be a more appropriate one. He says that a mule, as is well known to all people familiar with the animal, has a good deal more sense than a horse. He says that the mule is much the less demonstrative. Even in the best humor he appears sullen, and lacks those playful capers which give such expression to the well-bred horse, par-, ticularly in its youthful state. It is evident, however, that it discriminates men and things more clearly than, does the horse. - " .." In going over difficult ground it stud ies its surface and picks its way so as to secure a footing in an almost infalli ble manner. Even when loaded with a pack it will consider the incumbrance, and not so often try to pass where the burden will become entangled with, fixed objects. .
