A Diminutive Deuliey Detents Two Vi cious Dogs In l-'leree Duel. A fierce duel was fought a day or two ago at the all, una distillery, says a Meadville (l'a.) letter, between an in nocent-looking, sleepy little donkey and two big and furious dogs that had been for days seeking an opportunity to tackle his donkeyship. The donkey was running loose in the large, high fenced bullyanl at the brewery. Hi; owner, seeing the dogs growling and eagerly showing their teeth at the bull yard gate and trying lo ;vet in. con cluded that he would give the dogs a chance. If they had been Siberian blood hounds the burking brutes could not have rushed with more voracity upon the seemingly stupid beast w ith long, shaggy hair and cars. Prancing around him on both sides and watching their chance to grub him by the throat to gether, the dogs, like a brace of raven- ous wolves, encircled the donkey. Squinting lazily out of his off eve, the ' donkey appeared most o!li ions to his danger. The dogs grow lior.vr. As both were about to catch his throat in their teeth, the donkey with the speed of a lightning lUeh lowered his head and dashed toward t he nearest don as if with the long-eared head to bunt him. A buzsaw could nut revoivo more quickly than did the little jackass at this point, lie fairly llew around as if on a pivot. Both heels Hew out. They landed quarely amidships on ihe body of the nearest snapping and sn::r::i r Jo : At j the same instant one hendrcd and lit'tv pounds of dog went spinning through the air and struck the earth ten yards away, a whining, yelping, whipped cc nine.

On Beneficial Result of Out Anglomania. .duoly Sport Which CombloM How Kukiuhlp with ExhllarmtlDC Mus cular Training ThftGame Becoming National. We have, during the past dozen years, writes CoL T. A. Dodge in Harper's Magazine, drawn from onrtapof anglo mania a mug brimful of good. How easy it is to blow away the froth which rests on the excellent draught below. One of the most exhilarating of our im ported sports is polo, and as it happens that our plains furnish so excellent a mount, and our increasing out-of-door habits so many players the game may well become a national one. The motto of the day in English sports is speed. Fox hunting of the last generation was a modest performance at a hand gallop; Sir Roger de Coverly rode to hounds at a canter. , But within two score years the cross-country pace has been run up to racing speed. More and more thor ough blood has been called for in both pack and field, and the old-fashioned hunter of our sires could not live through the shortest burst to-day. The same thing applies to polo the faster and more able the pony, the better the performance of the rider. You can get enormous weight-carrying capacity in an under-bred pony, as well as remark able endurance, but not at speed. When you call on a fourteen hands pony to carry one hundred and sixty pounds and upward at speed, you must have blood. Even tho veriest weed of an undersized thoroughbred will do wonders in this way. The sudden bursts or racing pace called out at polo have made the English breed for small thoroughbreds. Capital polo ponies have been raised from the hardy Ex moor ponies with blooded sires. More barrel comes of this cross, together with a certain hardiness; but the little knife-blade thoroughbred will often carry as big a man, and endurance at speed is the inheritance only of his race. These words, in fact, sum up that peculiar quality which has not yet been reached in any other animal, ex cept, perhaps, the greyhound. So much for the English pony. Whe we come to riders, it w-ill be man years before we can boast the skill o. our transatlantic cousins, or either of us that of the Japanese, with thei light cup-wands for mullets, an feather weight balls. The America polo fields by no meais exhibit the play you see in England. Many a man here indulges in recklessness which would warn him off the ground at Hur lingham. It takes years at the game to produce the atmosphere which breeds perfection, and in the twenty it has been played in England it has well nigh reached this point. Hut it is well to persevere. We are making marked progress in all our sports, and polo may yet become us much a national game as " let. us hope withoQl its commercial aspect. The American polo pony is no other than our little bronco friend. Many come from Texas. Wyoming, Montana. ' The clever cow-pony is ready trained for the polo ground, lie will catch the idea of the game as quickly as he caught the trick of cow-punching, and he has already learned to stop and turn and twist as only he can do. When he is taken oIT tlie cars on arrival here from his familiar haunts on the cattle ranges he is the sorriest, gauntest, most miserable equine specimen one can find in a day's tramp. In a month or two you would never guess vour plump, handsome, able little pony to be the same individual. No other animal will recover from such Strapazen, as the Germans phrase it. And when he has undergone the torture of docking, and is finally in vested with the pigskin, nothing but the brand remains of the ragged little hero of the plains. The pony is used to a single gag-bit. Hut he is tractable, and not a few will learu to work perfectly in a snaffle. So many of our polo-players require the bridle as a "means of support" that the loose rein of the cowboy will in 110 wise do. The perfect nolo rider has not yet made his appearance. L'nder him the bronco would more quickly be come the perfect polo pony. It would take but a few months' training to teach him to guide by the legs alone, if need be. Indeed, his Indian master I made htm do just this. He learns to follow the ball in a few days. There is ' no sport in which trainiug would be better rewarded than in polo; and though it would be useless to aim at 1 the delicacy of the haute ceole for the I sharp runs and stops of polo make this ' as practically impossible as it is In hunting still, given a rider with perfect seat; without a suspicion of riding the bridle, and a pony which is taught to guide by leg pressure alone, and it would seem that they should, other things being equal, be the best players in the game.

The 1'nited States board on geograph ic names has made its report, and if its -polling of the names of familiar local ities near Detroit and Michigan is a fair eai.iple, those who were educated ill the grammar schools of this city may cpi . t to have their knowledge turned endwise Into a useless incumbrance, says the Detroit Free 1'ress. I i rosso l'ointe is now (irossopoint; St. Mary's river drops the apostrophe, like wise Sackett's Harbor and all othei names in which the npostrophe has hitherto boeu used; Conner's Creek is now Connors Crook flat; Boone, in W exford county, is spelled lloou; the Duck Islands are now known as Duck island; liroone drops the "e." The board says spelling and pronunci ation thaiMs sanctioned by local usage should be adopted, and then proceeds to do just the opposite It lays down the following rules: "It is desirable to avoid the use of the words city and town as parts of names. "In the ease of names consisting of more than one word, it Is desirable to combine them mb) one worn. , "The use of hyphens in conmx.t:ng f arts of names should Im; discontinued. Nai.ies ending in 'borough' should he abbreviated to 'boro.' In names eliding in burgh,' the final Y should be diopped. "Tho possessive form should be uvoid i,l whenever it can be done without de iiroying the euphony of the nuiuo or chuugiug its descriptive application." Uut Uncle Sain and his employes are tho only ones who will pay any attention to this sort of word and letter juggling, f,.r the changes are to appear only in government publications. The board was composed of ten men. graduates of West Point und Annapolis and they have rigged up a list of changes in nomenclature that will astonish every body and hurt nobody. A Time-Serving Dog. A resident of West Chester, Pa., isau thority for the following "dog story," as it was recited to him by a soldier: Troop !' of the Sixth cavalry owned a dog which accompanied it on every trip. At the battle of Wounded Knee some - tl,. animal ivhk abandoned j and wi.. found in a snowdrift by a ser geant of 1 troop, wno took 11 aw ay 1010 eared for it. The animal could not be persuaded to return to its former own ers and .remained with the sergeant. One day the sergeant was reduced to the ranks for some breach of discipline. From that day forth the dog would have nothing w hatever to do w ith him and took up its quarters in another tent. It could never again be persuaded to re turn to the sergeant, evidently consider ing a reduced man as far beneath its notice." All Free.

As there is no royal road to learning, so there is no royal road to that outward and visible siq-n of it which consists in shelves well filled with books, says a writer in Kstt:' Field's Wis: .hiugton. The man w ho wants a library c:n not ?et it ready made. II-- m-.--. it is true, buy a collection of booku f.-.u'ly well fitted to the nvera.'je mind, but it will be about as satisiacl. iry tin the. ready made coat fitted 1 1 t'" nveriffo body. It will fail to meet his individual eccen tricities. Nor can the ideal library be .-'tVi-cd in a hurry. Not'iing is more helpful to the tone and jt;::!Uy of 11 library than such a moderate i!'r;Tee of poverty ns will limit purchases at fiivt to the abso lutely ci.senlial. la the linyiug of books, tis in the lmyiri.T of pictures, real dis crimination cimes only through actual experience, and it is very unfortunate to have too nnmy bought at 11 low grade of development: hut, ont'.ie other hand, no man should wait to begin his library until his taste h fully formed, or it will lack many books which he would gladly have there, but which would not run the gauntlet of his mature judgment. A very common error in buying books is to start with cheap editions under the erroneous impression that later on they may be replaced by good ones. Unfort unately, the mind of the book lover will n"t f.ssent to thin plan, however strong h!s will. The book he takes up to read is invariably the old nnd shabby one, i;nd the other becomes only a splendid bit of decoration, to please the eye of the visitor. Your pet literature always tastes bent fit m the page on which you ongii ally rend it; so. when you buy a book oi which you tiro likely tobeci nie fond, it should be in a good enough form to keep. At least, paper nnd print should be ;.o respectable that a new- binding will be all the change necessary. With the. hnbiUml student the sense of location is very highly de veloped. In his own library In finds things by their position on the page, and can t io n at once to any given pas sage in a fe.niiliar author, llv.t put him in a room full of strange editions, and this laboriously acquired sbith sense becomes utterly useless. The taste for fine bindings is a liking apart from the love of books for what they contain, but it is by no means an ignoble tendency, and adds vastly to the o'sthctic effect of a wcll-choscn library. The housing and care of books, too, is a subject not beneath the notice of even the profoundest student. A Medical Firm Cites Away Cash. J. F.
