ol u nesl Of this species, found
among the mountains of Colorado by
M Edwin Carter q sklllHul laxlder-

from IL position, carly II July, Il was

lour eggs, on the point OF hatchlng'
Another oocupied the lower compart-
mcnt, hut her single egg had hut u't

These facts show that the upper por-
ton Of this structure had been built
N the usual manner by the pair After
Il had beea completed, aud the bird
wife had begun her parental duties,
her lord aud master took TO himself
another partner, ana enlarged their

As this is q wholly unprecedented
instance Of a plurality Of wives on the

its history, as given in the letter OF
Mr. Carter. The nest was discovered
on the 18th OF June, IN cottonwood
grove on an island in Grand River,
Colorado, female being Il. work con.
s,rdc,ing the nest, 1t was attached To
the branchlets Of one Of the central
and uppcrmost forks OF cottonwood
tree. and was about seventy feet from
the ground. Examined through n
glass, it was seen to be nearly com.
plcted. AT this time there was but
the single upper apartment. Nothing
more was seen of It until july 3rd,
when, on ascending to the nest. three
orioles -one male and two females
manifested the usual anxiety Of tins
bird when its home is invaded. The
presence of two females led to the
supposition Of there being two nests,
until the reality was ascer,ained
From the original nest four eggs were
taken, and these were found to contain
large embWos, while in the appended
apartment only single fresh egg had
been de; osited, showing conclusively
that the supplementary nest was com.
menced some time after the compile
ton of the original structure.

On u late Sunday, at Plymouth
church, Henry Ward Beecner, in a
sermon on the Fatherhood of God,
said that he thought it extremely
probable that the spirits Of those de-
parted had the power to revisit those
upon the earth whom they left behind.
He said, "Thc philosophy of Spirit
ualism is all right. So far as the gen
eral idea of SpiritualIsm is concerned,
| believe in it." Mr.. Beecher went
on to illustrate his meaning, showing
that what he objected to was the mass

was anticipated from her sleeping alone.
| The insane woman was in that condition
in which little thing will start the
mind off on train of thought or feel
ing, which will continue until interrupt
ed by something which starts some 9th
er train of thought or feeling-and SO
on, indefinitely So when this insane
lady had disrobed herself she noticed on
the wash-stand in her bedroom pitch
er set in wash-bowl. As the exami-
nation which she had been put through
during the day had left her fretted and
heated and perspiring, this suggested to
her the idea that a personal ablution
would be good thing to indulge in !;
this resulted in her looking about for
comb this resulted in her pulling open
the top drawers of the bureau in her
room this resulted in her finding in one
of them-what the lady of the house
had not thought of being there even if
she knew it-a loaded revolver, which
her husband had thought would be a
good thing to have handy in case of
burglars. The sight Of this revolver
suggested to the insane woman that
that would be just the thing with which
to shoot one of the Commissioners of
Insanity who had asked her questions
which she, unable to accept mentally
the hypothesis that she was insane,
deemed insulting. Fired with this in
dignation and and this determination,
and armed with the revolver, she forth
with proceeded down the stairs leading
through the front hail. through the
open door, through the gate, and off
down the cross street toward Julien
avenue, her bewildered brain on fire
with insane revenge against the man
who had in her estimation so wronged
her-all the time utterly oblivious of
the fact that she had not stopped to
put on a particle Of clothing before
starting out If we were disposed to
be imaginative, or to indulge in exagger-
alton, we might indite graphic accounts
Of her meeting with astonished and
thunder-struck travellers on their way
to their homes, and the CONSERVATION
that seized them at the sight of wo-
man coming down upon them with not
a stitch nor scrap Of apparel upon her
unless a loaded revolver could come
within that category. But to come
within the limits of the exact truth,
candor compels us to say that our in
sane Lady Godiva had not gone a rod
from the gate before she was met by
the late-returning man Of the house,
who knew that it had been pre-arranged
that the woman should remain with his
family over night, and who in moment
surmised with substantial correctness
the facts of the case, and with tact and
quiet management induced her to re-
turn to her ROOM
