ONE time the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company wanted good site for the To-
fation of its great shops. 1t found the
place it wanted on the east side of the
klleghany Mountains, on beautiful
plateau. That was just forty years ago.
There were not many people living on

beer and his family were monarchs of

written instructions to pay $4,000 if

Sparrows in q Winter Bath.

YESTERDAY, during the sunny hour of
noon, a flock of about a hundred En-
glish sparrows gathered upon and near
painted tin roof having protected
southern exposure, where good deal
of water had collected in the broad, flat
gutter. The temperature of the sur
rounding air was about six degrees be-
low the freezing point, and water was
evidently scarce article, for the eager
little birds rushed for it almost furiously.
They dashed in by the dozen, fiuttering
their wings and tails, and sending the
water in a shower of spray around. A
dozen new corners would be actually
fighting for precedence. AS fast as they
finished their bath the birds went to the
upper slope of the roof, next the shelter
ing brick wall of higher part of the
building, and there spread themselves
it in the sun, like hens shuff1ing in
arm sand bath, spreading out their
athers and turning themselves first on
he and then on the other side. One
barrow evidently had his misgivings
bout taking plunge into q winter
hth; he stood shivering at the edge of
be pool, like an undressed boy at the
ver's bank when he hesitates to take
is first plunge of the season. Some of
lis more venturesome companions tried
B push the bird in. One seized him by
be tail and pulled; another futtered his
rings against him and tried TO crowd
i'm in !; and a third tried to operate on
is head. It was in vain; that particu-
hr bird, though seemingly desirous of a
|ath, evidently mistrusted the tempera-
ure of the water-or his own sanitary
lowers of resistance in these malarial
ines, and he wouldn't bulge. His
companions, to the number of about
ixty, then gave it up and crowded to-
kether in their selected position of shell
er, as closely, seemingly, as swarming
bees, m aking pretty sight. The social
md gregarious characteristics of these
parrows are strongly marked. But

did not take his farm by force Of a
franchise which gave him power 10
compel its former owner to sell it at an
appraisement. He did not take his
farmiunder proclamation and could not
therefore invoke the power of the pub
lic to compel the owner to yield pos
session. He took his farm from vol.
untaray seller, and paid the price re.
quired, and he took it exclusively for
his own use. He had no franchise
giving him a monopoly in raising his
wheat, and he entered into no cove
nant in regard to how he should raise
his wheat, or what he should do with
il. He owns his farm, can cultivats
