F S Dellenbaugh writes of “The
Quick Horse” in St. Nicholas, his ar
ticle telling of the training of horsa*
for the fire department. Mr. Dellef*#
! baugh says: _
The quickest horses in the world
were at one time in Kansas City, at
the headquarters of its fire depart*
ment, directly under the office of the
Chief, Mr. George C. Hale. To Mr.
Hale’s genius, more than to any other
factor, the quick horse owned his first
development; for Mr. Hale is the in
ventor of the earliest swinging-har
ness—which made the quick horse
possible. When Mr. Henry M. Stan
ley and his wife were in this country,
they witnessed an exhibition drill of
the Kansas City Fire Department.
The drill so impressed the visitors
that an account of it was published in
a London journal, and this English
article brought an invitation to Mr.
Hale to visit England as the represen
tative of the American Fire Service
at the International Fire Tournament.
Mr. Hale and a picked corps went
to England, taking with them the re-
markably quick horses “Joe and
“Dan,” and they became world-fam
ous. As the quickest harnessing time
of the London Fire Brigade is one
minute, seventeen and one-half sec
onds, and the Kansas City horses were
harnessed in one and three-quarter
seconds, and were out of the engine-
house in less than eight seconds,^there
could be no competition. In Kansas
City, four fine bays were harnessed to
j the hook-and-ladder truck almost as
; qu»ckly as even Joe and Dan could
' jump into their harnesses. It was a
pretty sight to see these four well-
kept horses spring to their places at
the stroke of the gong, and in two or
three seconds stand ready to run with
the apparatus. Joe was killed by an.
accident; but Dan, with a new mate,
is still in service, and as quick as

Lena Bead is a court stenographer
in Terre Haute, Ind. She recently
took the minutes of an important suit,
then refused to typewrite them on the
ground that she was to be married,
and did not have time. To solve the
difficulty, a phonograph was procured,
and she read the notes into that.
Fifty cylinders were made, and when
the cases comes up for a new trial
they will be used as a record.
It turns out that it was not Alma
Tadema, the painter, who was natural
ized in England a few weeks ago, bat
his daughter. His name was original

Alma for euphony, and changed

ized in 1873. His daughter bears the
same name and signs her poems L.

pictures. Hence the confusion.

The record for quickest time from
the engine-house to the throwing of
water on the fire is held by a Kansas
City company. In this instance the
horses were harnessed, a run of 2194
feet (a little less than half a mile) was
made, and water thrown from the
hose in the wonderfully brief time of
one minute, thirty-one and one-half
seconds.

The new ribbons are in plaids and
stripes in the prettiest colors imagina

White velvet, as well as white
breitschwanz, is used for the crown of
the fur-trimmed toque.
The latest ties for women are the
sailor knots of silk with broad ends,
sometimes trimmed with tiny plaited
frills.
“Wylborye” is the name of a new
corset which is recommended for stout
women. An extra piece laces over the
hip in such an effectual manner that
the figure is very much improved.
Roman striped sashes with deep

are revived again in all the gorgeous

water
be swallowed as a large draught, or if
it be taken in two portions with a
short interval between, certain de
finite results follow—effects which
differ from those which would have
resulted from the same quantity taken
by sipping. Sipping is a powerful
stimulant to the circulation, a thing
which ordinary drinking is not. Dur
ing the act of sipping the action of the
nerve which shows the beats of the
heart is abolished, and as a conse
quence that organ contracts much
more rapidly, the pulse beats more
quickly, and tho circulation in - various
parts of the body is increased. In
addition to this, we find that the pres
sure under which the bile is secreted
is raised by the sipping of fluid. And
here is a point which might well be
noted by our readers: A glass of cold
water, slowly sipped, will produce
greater acceleration of the pnlse for a
time than will a glass of wine or spirits
taken at a draught. In this connec
tion it may not be out of place to
mention that sipping cold water will
often allay the craving for alcohol in
those who have been in the habit of
taking too much of it, and who may
be endeavoring to reform, the effect
being probably due to the stimulant
action of the sipping.

The firo engine house, No. 15, at
Sixteenth and Bell streets has in addi
tion to two hose reels and trucks and
prancing horses the essentials of a
dairy and a chicken farm. At No. 15
there are always milch cows in plenty
and chickens in profusion. This en
gine house is on the north side of the
stock yards and abuds on the shed
where speculators at the yards house
their cows that are in milk. This ex
plains the dairy end of the story. The
firemen have only to step from their
backjdoor into the cow shed to obtain
all the fresh milk that they and their
families need and in the summer time
they indulge in great qi a ities of ice
cream.
On the south side of the engine
house is a chicken coop and last sum
