The American Oyster.

Our American oyster surpasses in
size and fairness all other oysters of the
world. He is found all along our sea.
shore, from Maine to Mexico, but in
greatest abundance and most generous
growth from Long Island Sound to
Chesapeake Bay. On the Pacific Coast
the oyster is not nearly so large as on
the Atlantic, although the little oysters
of California are much esteemed for
their flavor. In England oysters are
both small and scarce. It is not mere
size that makes the oysters desirable.
Some very large oysters are fiabby and
watery and make poor eating. Until
comparatively recent improvements in
rapid transportation the luxury Of fresh
oysters was 8 rarity to jewellers in the
inland parts of the United States. Even
as far East as Pittsburg "shell oysters"
were so far from common as to be the
subject of special signs in restaurant
windows. The general public who ate
oysters partook Of the canned article.
Twenty years ago people advertised rs
special attraction at church fairs and
other festivals such canned oysters as
we of the seaboard would consider
hardly fit to offer dogs. Since that time
great improvements have been made in
canning oysters, and they now may be
quoted as really fit to eat when freshly
opened ones can not be procured. An
immense canned business is done in
Philadelphia, as well as in Baltimore
and New York.

A Canary Bird Taught to Produce the
Music Of . Waltz.

Swinging in gilded cage in the coy
Parlor Of Mrs. c. w. Carpenter, whose
husband is the proprietor of the CONT
mental Hotel in Newark, is u brown and
yellow canary bird. 1t looks like an
ordinary bird, behaves like an ordinary
bird; but listen to it for second, and
you will hear tune, occasionally varied
by genuine bird warblinss.
"Dick is about four years DID," Mrs.
Carpenter said yesterday, sand when
he feels like it will sing the German
Waltz, few notes Of which you Just
heard, through correctly. He has
mate down stairs that sings nearly as
well as does Dick; but he is molting
now, and don't sing. Dick mas also
been mOlting, and isn't in good condi-
ton. When he is, he will sing that
waltz by the hour; but whenever he
makes mistake, he will break into
mere canary MARBLE, and then begin
again. l wish he would sing now.
Perhaps we can get him to-"
Thereupon Mrs. Carpenter played the
waltz on an organ, using stop that
gave tone much like birds. She
played the waltz through, and as she
ceased the bird began and sang the
waltz nearly through; but ii made a
false note, and then wsrbled sweetly.
The organ sounded again, and then the
bird sang again. This time Dick sang
the waltz correctly, and at the end Of
his song gave himself great airs, evil
IDENTIFY proud Of his skill.
"How did we teach him?" said Mr..
Carpenter in answer to the question Of
the reporter. "Mrs. Carpenter took
Dick when he was just off the nest, and
put him into dark room, where he saw
no light, and heard NO sound. Then
daily she played the waltz to him, two
or three times day, for fifteen or twen-
ty minutes every time. At the end of q
month or two the bird begau to sound q
note Of the waltz, then another. Soon
it combined them, and after q time he
whistled an entire strain. 1t was near
ly year, however, before his education
was complete. 1t requires considerable
patience to teach q bird. These birds
are q cross between linnet and cana
~, and are heartier bird than thor
oughbred canary. Iwould not like to
part with either Of my birds. When the
Kellogg opera troupe were here, Miss
Kellogg was delighted with Dicks per-
formances. She said il she owned him
she wouldn't take $1,000 for him.

States In Debt and out Of Debt.

1t is interesting to observe how the era
of economy is reducing the State debts
and lengthening the list of States which
bear no debt at all. Colorado, Della
ware, Kentucky, West Virginia and
Wisconsin do not appear as debtor
States at all. Then there are CalifOr-
mia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan,
Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon
and Vermont whose debts are either
very small and on the point of extinc-
ton by sinking funds, or are held in
perpetual trust for school purposes or
State institutions. This makes Is out
of SO virtually out of debt. To this list
may be added Minnesota and Mississip-
pi, If both States had not repudiated just
obligations. OF the indebted States,
Massachusetts heads with debt at the
beginning of this year of sS3. 2OO. 900,
and sinking fund of about Sll COZ. 600,
making . net debt OF over 81, 0OO, 600.
Pennsylvania has a total debt Of about
s23, 900, 900, which sinking funds reduce
to S14,0OO,00O. New York has paid of
all but her canal debt Of 80, Co., 900.
