HIS HORSES AND DOGS KILLED.
Carrying Out tln Strango Provisions of an
Anlniiil I.ovcr'8 Will.
At Hridgeport, Conn., a provision in
the will of Francis Ives was lately car
ried out, his line horses and well-bred
dogs having- been put to death,
says the New York World. Mr.
Ives was a distinguished member of
the Fairfield county bar and a rich old
bachelor. ' Rumor had it that when he
was a young' man he fell in love with
the beautiful Miss Julia Jones, daugh
ter of Rev. and Mrs. Henry Jones and
tfranddauprhter of Xoah Webster. Mr.
Ives proposed to Miss Jones and she re
jected him. Afterwards she married
Rev. Thomas IJeecher, brother of Hen
ry Ward Beecher. From the fhne of
her marriage Mr. Ives separated him
self from the society of women. He
owned a tine stable of thoroughbred
trotters. Two of them, Prince and
Gypsy, were his greatest favorites, and
as he speeded them he seemed to be
forgetful for the moment and happy.
He owned a kennel of pedigreed point
ers and setters and he vas an enthusi
astic hunter. Mr. Ives died last winter,
leaving a large estate. His will made
his life-long' friend, George Hayes, his
executor, and, outside of a few small
bequests, left his whole estate to his
sister, Mrs. Whiting, of New Haven.
Hut the eighteenth clause of his will
betrayed Mr. Ives' intense affection for
his horses and dogs an niTeclion
which, neeesi-arily diverted from its
iirst object, had centered itself on
them. In this clause Mr. Ives directed
his executor, Mr. Hayes, to chloroform
to death all the animals that he .might
own at the time of his death in the
month of June first following that
event. In explanation of this act of
.seeming cruelty Mr. Ives wrote in his
will:
"L fear lest my dogs and horses will
fall into the hands of some one who
will not treat them kindly."
Mr. Ives was well known to be a hu
mane and kind-hearted man. His exec
utor considered his order binding' upon
him.

An American tourist is said to have
leceutly sent his bicycle from London
to Paris by mail at a cost of a few pence
and received it in perfect order. Thnt
looks like a yarn, but it is straight. The
English parcels post now carries mail
packages not over SiO pounds in weight,
and not of 11 higher value than $100,
from any point iu England to any place
in ' ranee at whut appears to be a ri
diculously low tariff. The bicycle
weighed just 0 pounds. The wheels
nnd handle bars were removed from the
frame, and carefully wrapped in heavy
paper, so as to make a compact bundle,
before the- postage was paid, and when
the wrappings were removed at the
tourist's iiotel in Paris the machine
was in perfect condition.

The following clipping from the Moro
Lender should cause the merchants of
this place to consider the matter of good
roads :
"Already have people south of Sher
man county found that we have a rail
road, and are making uee of it. Team
sters are shipping freight from The
Dallea to Waeco, thus saving the most
dillicnlt part of the road, saving time
and teams. During the coming summer
many freighters will come this way if
they learn of tiie advantages of thia
route."
It should be cur aim to havo the roads
to The Dalles put in condition so that it
will be to the advantage of teamsters to
come to this place, and" l'10 matter re
ceive the support of our citizens, it can
easily be done.
