MEN ON HORSEBACK.
Four Whom Mr. (iosilntou Has Met More
or Less I.ati'ly.
"In a -big city," .said Mr. Gosling-ton,
"you see all sorts of men on horseback.
It is a common thing to see truckmen
riding, mounted on one horse and it
may be leading: another, going- to the
haruess maker's, perhaps, or the liorse
shoor's; riding without a saddle, and
very likely without a blanket, but with
a seat that many a more elaborately pro
vided horseman ruig-htenvy.
"You see occasionally a fireman on
horseback', taking a horse to the horse
shoer's. He rides always without a sad
dle and almost invariably without a
blanket. He wears a uniform, and he
sits up straight, like a soldier he
makes a pretty prim-looking- figure on
'horseback; he is almost certain to be a
very good rider.
"Yesterday 1 saw something T had
never seen before a painter on horse
back. You often see the painter's
wagon, loaded with ladders and pots and
cans of paint, and with two or three or
more men in paint-covered overalls and
jackets; but this was just the horse
with a painter on his back. Wiiere he
was going-, or what it all meant, I
couldn't even imagine.
"Later, yesterday, I met one mar. in
the saddle. Walking- down Riverside
drive after nightfall to g-st a little air
and exercise before dinner, and wateh
iug meanwhile the new moon hanging
low over the river, I heard the hoof
beats of a horse coming up nloujr the
bridle path. Presently horse and rider
came into view; man singing, horse
keeping time with his hoofs; and so
they disappeared.
TESTING A VATCH.
English Timepieces Tried as to Their
Correctness mul Kejrulurlty.
There has been watchmaking at
Coventry as long- as there has been a
watch trade in England, which is for
the last 200 years or thereabouts, says
the Jewelers' Beview. There used to
be three cen teres of the English trade,
these being Liverpool, Coventry and
London; now there are practically but
two, Coventry ami Birmingham. The
test of a good watch is that it should
obtain a Kew certificate, jind of tin
watches that go to Kew 7j per cent, are
from Coventry.
At Kew no watch has yet succeeded
in getting the hundred marks which
signify perfection, but Coventry has
come nearest, with DS, and is always
well to the front. The Kew ti t is no
light one. Tin; watch is tested in every
position, and its rate registered, not
only per day, but per hour; it is hung
by its pendant, hung upside down,
hung on each side, placed dial down and
Lack down and at any number of angles,
and to finish up it Ji is baked in an oven
and frozen in an ice pail, rs'o wonder
that, a watch with a Kew certificate is
a comfort to its owner.
When it is considered that it makes
JS.000 vibrations an hour and must not
Miry a second a week, while a quarter
turn of its two time screws, meaning
the millionth of an inch, will make n
difference of 20 seconds .a day, the deli
cacy of its adjustment will be appre
ciated, as will also the risk of intrust
ing its repair to any but. skillful hands.
THE CARRIER PIGEON.
An Explorer's H'lfo C'licon-d by tho fllos
hiiko That It lirouglit,
One day a wonderful bird tapped at
the vindow of .Mis. Xansen's house at
Christiana. Instantly the window was
opened and the wife of the famous arctic
explorer in another moment covered
the little messenger with kisses and
caresses, says the Philadelphia Times,
Tlw carrier pigeon hud been away from
the cottage JO long months, but it had
not forgotten the way home. It brought
a notf from Xuusen stating thatall was
going on well with him and his expedi
tion in the polar regions. Xaseu had
fastened a message to a carrier pig-con
and turned the bird loose. The frail
courier darted out Into the blizardly
air. It ilew like i.n arrow over 1,000
miles of frown . (- and then sped for
ward over another 1 .otto miles of ocean
and plains ami forests, and one morning
entered tin- window of the w aitlng me
tres -i and delivered the message which
she had been awaiting' so nii.shiusly. We
boast of human pluck, wigm-ity and en
durance, but this loving little carrier
pigeon, in ita homeward light, nlu-v an
absence of .'10 months, accomplished a
feat so wonderful that v.t can only giw
ourselves up to tins amazement ami ad
miration which must overwhelm every
one when the marvelous story is told.

Astronomical Discoveries.
That the best attainments are not the
result, of chance was exempli'lied in the
discovery of the planet Neptune, the
lil'tieth anniversary of which event was
recently celebrated in France. Tele
scopes had long- swept the sky without
discovering this shy outer planet; but
when astronomers noticed how Uranus
hastened in one part of iUs orbit arid
moved with le.s rapidiay in another,
they knew there must bean attracting
body that held him in check, hcver
rier, therefore, after minute calcula
tions, wrote to the astronomer of the
Merlin observatory, requesting him to
point Jiis telescope to a particular spot
in the sky on an evening indicated, and
said: "You will see a planet which I
have not seen, and which no human eye
has ever seen, but which nevertheless
must be on the spot." Xo one. would
venture to call its discover' that night
an act of chance. Youth's Companion.
