HORSES THAT DO NOT DRINK.
(Honolulu Letter in The Chicago
Record.) .
The proverbial horse who can be led
to water but who cannot be made to
drink exists in great numbers in the
Hawaiian, Islands. Among cattle he
has thousands of cousins of the same
proclivities. It is a surprising state
ment to make, and yet one that is lit
erally true and so commonplace that
no one here thinks anything about it,
that there are hundreds of horses and
thousands of cattle which never take a
drink of water throughout the whole
course of their lives.
On all the islands the upper altitudes
of the mountains -are given up to cat
tle ranges. The cattle run wild from
the time they are born until they are
rounded up to be sent to the slaughter
house. Except during possibly two or
three months of the rainy season there
Pare no streams or pools of water any
where that the cattle range. But
everywhere there grows a recumbent,
jointed grass, known by the name of
maninia. This is both food and drink.
Horses and cattle crazing at will oa it
neither require water nor will drink it
when offered.
My first experience with this fact was
on a trip to HalecSala. Our party were
mounted on horses which had just been
brought in from the range. The trip
we had to make was fourteen miles, in
which distance we ascec-ded about nine
thousand feet. We started late in the
afternoon, and atout sundown we
halted for supper. I thought it strange
that the horses should leave a feed of
grain to nibble the scanty grass which
grew where we were, but I was willing
to trust their instinct in the matter.
But before starting I insisted that they
be given water. Our native guide de
murred to this, saying they didn't need
it, but with the good-natured compli
ance of his race yielded to my insist
ence, and led a detour of about a mile,
which brought us to a ranch house
where there was a well. But to my
utter amazement and stupefication the
horses would not drink. I took it as
another case of instinct, and assumed
that the water for some reason was not
good, and so refrained from drinking
myself. It was rot until our return,
the second day afterward, to Kawaa
pae, that I learned from Mrs. Bailey,
our hostess, the secret of the wonder
ful maninia grass.
PAPER BANANAS.
Bunches of bananas made of papier
mache have been introduced as signs
on the wharves of New York, where
the depredations of hoodlums are fre
quent. It is proposed to add wooden
peanuts for the benefit of policemen
and other friendly samplers of the
stock in trade.
