The world may know few Matteue is at the volcano top. . But the world may be proud tha uch heroes are not so rare as the eem. It has known thousands of lik ourage and devotion in the dark pla es of disease and despair, in th waths of battle, and in the exigencie f everyday life.

We 'find -an item in the Savanna Weekly News, which we can heartil mndorse. We have not used blinder mn a horse for years. If we have t ake a new bridle with blinders, w~ mut them off b)efore using it. The beOst handlers of horses ar ~ondemning blinders. TIhe purpose of blinders is to shu >ff from view tIhe object from behin, hat horse that might cause the hors -obeo alnmname nA try tn ru away. 4s to this, blip r have proyen More disastrous thaii 6eOcal. If a horse passes some object tiat is not fully understood 'by him and causes fright, the shutting off from view of this scarecrow by blind6rs only in creases the fear. -Anwy ordinarysl4rdluetaoshrdletas Any horse of ordinary good sense i can soon be taught not to scare at flags, cars, covered wagons, umbrellas, etc., by letting him see them and un. derstand them. Give the horse the full power of all lhis senses; let hin see hear, and smell, i need be, to satisfy his fears. Except for Mr. Lyon's controversy with Senator Tillman little-has been heard'lately from the dispensary in vestigating committee. Possibly it is the quiet that always precedes the storm.
