A firm of miners in the Bur- wash creek couhtry, 176 miles west of White Horse, Yukon territory, made the experiment successfully, says the Indianapolis News. "Owing to the abundance of fine lands available for pasturage in Alaska and the Yukon, the growing of horses in the north should spread rapidly if subsequent tests in the Burwash creek country prove as successful as the. first re- corded. A pagture is maintained on the Duke river, where horses can live all the winter without being stabled or fed. Last summer 26 brood mares were imported from Vancouver, and these are wintering nicely, all of them being reported as being in good condi- tion. Late in the fall of 1911 a number of horses used in previous summer by the international boundary eurvey corps were taken to the head of the White river, near the international boundary line, and turned out for the winter. Having been brought from the Dregon ranges the previous spring, a pumber of mares foaled last spring, pnd all the colts lived and are doing ope in war. pany, N.

In one hand he is seen holding a captured Turkish flag and the keys to the city citadel in the other. The wonderful. expression of triumph on the face of the aged warrior reflects his inward satisfaction on the realization of a dream long stand- ing, for King Nicholas in capturing Scutari regained what it lost to the Ottomans five hundred years ago. for Christianity The capture of Scutari, however, nearly embroiled the whole of Eur- Austria was opposed to Montenegro occupying this' valuable port, and backed up by the Triple Alliance, forced King Nicholas to evac- uate the city, which he captured after a long and hitter sxege in . which he lost thousands of men. well, making more hardy animals than pa(r predecessors. Several instances are known in which colts foaled in the far north have grown into the hardiest porses, having become fully inured to the severity of the winters. It has been observed that when horses have lived for some length of time in this Fegion they become naturally protect- ‘ed from the extreme could by the growth of a longer coat of hair. Some fnstances have been reported in which horses have been seen with a crop of pair similar to that of the buffalo. PASS THE NECKLACE AROUND ©Odd Compact Entered Into by Four teen Pittsfield (Mass.) Girls. in Like a romance of old is the story of the “Golden Necklace of the Berk- shires.” In 1901 14 Pitisfield girls who had been friends all their lives de- cided that even marriage should not break the bonds. Together they had made for them a golden necklace of exquisite workmanship. It was fash- foned from 14 large beads, with small- er ones in between. It was agreed and determined that as soon as any one of the 14 girls be- came engaged she should wear the mpecklace until her marriage, when it should be placed in a safety deposit vault until another fell before one of Cupid’s arrows. Should one of the girls become engaged’ while another was wearing it, it was decided that the necklace should be surrendered to the one who had last announced her intention of marriage. Such a com- tingency, however, has never arisen. The binding together even after marriage ties, of the girls who de- vised the “Order of the Golden Neck- lace,” comes in this manner: As soon as a girl becomes engaged her initials are inscribed on one of the large beads. When she is married those of her husband are engraved on the oppo- site, together with the year of the mar rlage. Already seven have worn the orna- ment and it has become known that the necklace is again fo be taken from {ts storeroom to adorn the person of Miss Rosamond Hull. Her engagement to Harold F. Morse of Binghamton, N, Y., was announced by her mother. Brittany’s Hair Harvest. It is at Easter time that the curious “hair harvest” of Brittany is “reaped” by the traveling merchants, who go from village to village buying the beautiful hair for, which the Breton belles are famous. This is later de- gtined to be made up into “transfor- mations,” “fringes” and other mys- terloys “arrangements with which la- dies less abundantly endowed by na- ure make up their shortcomings in tha matter of ‘“woman’s crowning glory.” The clients of the hair buyers re chiefly country lasses in the re- moter districts, who are only too pleased to sell their tresses in order to pbtain a little money to spend at the aster fairs. The “harvest,” however, fi gaid not to be so good as formerly, with the spread of education and the Iove of display many girls prefer 10 keep their hair.—Wide Awake Mag- wine. Where Poverty Hurts. Charles Tellier, the inventor of cold storage, is a Frenchmnn of slght years, and having besq igcovered in a state of.abject poverty, Mr. Tellier corated and pensioned by the French. government, In the course of an interview: with # New York correspondent, Mr, Tell- fer talked with p(m ‘humor about poverty. “The advantages of poverty . are overrated,” he said. . “The rich de-] ‘clare that poverty bring- out a man’s good polnu‘ ‘Well go it does—by the Yoots” - - . lmuunt'd to anything before I was married.” - “Then you glve your wife credit m awakening your ambition?” _“No; for making it necessary for me to get out and ‘hustle.”—Chicage -Herald, Vel sma o e MARRIAGE LAW IN Ceremony s Only Legal When Per m—— ITALY formed by Mayor of Place Where Couple Reside.
