The Urbane Owl.

The following note was received
shortly before his death from the Hon.
GRAVITY +. Berkeley: Il am at present
studying the amount of affection in owls,
horned owls, and that mysterious lesser
owl, the sparrow-owl, about the size of
thrush. / keep them in pairs in large
separate wire aviaries, wings uncut.
with room to fly about. As regards the
horned owls and the lesser owls, there
was a good deal of suspicion to watch
things just at first. The lesser owl be-
ing the least acquainted with the habits
of man was the easiest to tame. Igive
you that curious fact. / have only had
these lesser owls during the spring
The hen bird is sitting in her selected
box with hole in it, on three eggs
Dump. as we call her, will let me or my
head keeper put our hands in and take
the eggs from under her and replace
them again without the least anger or
alarm. Her mate, whose name is Toby,
will, if ask him to do SO, dance with
me in the funniest way possible, or with
my parlor maid, to whom he seems also
to have taken fancy. His dance, be-
tween every two differing steps. is the
complete turn of the waltz, but the
quaintness of his executed evolutions
and the grace he assumes are inimita-
ble Then in point of urbanity comes
the horned owl, then the brown owl,
and last the white owl. who has the most
experience of the malevolence of man,
and therefore the least trust in him. /"

THE ISLAND,

In the afternoon a large number of Mo-
line people visited the island, and, assisted
by the Davenport delegation, decorated
the graves of the. Union soldiers in the
Island cemetery
The grave of Gen. Rodman was first
visited, and after short prayer by the
Rev. j. D. Smith, w. G. Morris, president
of the day, placed beautiful floral wreath
about the monument which marks that
hero's last resting place.
On reaching the graves of the other sol
diers some vocal and instrumental music

graves completed. About 1900 people
visited the island during the afternoon.

Too Much Oscillation.

At an evening party in Kelkeim, in
Germany, few weeks ago, says the
New York San, the question arose how
many kisses could be exchanged be-
tween two lovers within a certain space
of time, A youth offered to bet any
body present $50 that he and his be-
trothed would kiss one another 10000
times within ten hours, provided they
were permitted to partake of some slight
refreshment at intervals of half an hour
during tho performance. His wager
having been accepted, the aflianced
couple addressed themselves to the
achievement of the task. At the expi-
ration of the first hour their account
stood accredited with 1000 kisses Dur
ing the second they added another 900,
and during the third $50 to that num-
Der, Then they both broke down. The
youths lips were stricken with cramp
and the maiden tainted away Later in
the evening she was compelled to take
to her bed with sharp attack of neu-
ralga An even more distressing re-
suit onsued, for it led to the breaking
of, by mutual consent, of the matri-
monial engagement.

Somebody's Child.

Somebody's child is dying-dying with
the flush OF hope on his young face, and
somebody's mother thinking of the time
when that dear face will be hidden where
no ray of hope can brighten it-because
there was no cure for consumption. Reader,
if the child be your neighbours, take this
comforting word to the mothers heart
before il IS too late. Tell her that consump-
ton is durable; that men are living today
whom the physicians pronounced incurable,
because one lung had been almost destroyed
by the disease. DR.. Pierces "Golden
Medical Discovery" has cured hundreds;
surpasSes cod liver oil, hypophosphites, and
other medicines in curing the disease. Sold

From experiments on eight dogs, DR..
L. Ludwig concludes that in all eases,
whether of acute or chronic poisoning,
the liver is the organ richest in arsenic.
The liver was found to contain nearly
seventeen times as much of the poison
as the brain. TO this the observations
on menpoisoned by arsenic lent strength.
In a typical case OF acute poisoning the
brain contained, per 100 grammes,
O.OOO0i gramme; the liver, per 100
grammes, 0.0O338 gramme of arsenic.
1t would, therefore, appear that the liv-
er is the best part to examine in judicial
cases

Hens Eggs 1900 Years Old.

AT st. Eloi, in the Faubourg St. An
tome in France, nestful of eggs was
found under the ruins of the old palace
where King Dagobert lived. So they
knew that l,200 years before some hen
had stolen her nest, just as our hens do
nowadays; and had been disturbed, and
left the nest before the eggs had been
sat upon. The workmen, who in clear
ing away the ruins to build the old
church that still stands there had found
the nest, were going to throw away tho
eggs; but the Abbe Denis, who was then
the curato Of the parish, remembering
that wheat had grown from grains that
were found with the mummies in Egypt
ian tombs, which must have been 80, 900
years old, thought that there might be
life in these old eggs. He set them I'M
der one Of his good, motherly old hens,
and sure enough, in twenty-one days she
came OIL the nest with u fine brood Of
king Dagobcrt" chickens, as they have
ever since been called; and the Dagobert
fowls have SO increased that the able Of
the parish has organized n sale Of king
Dagobert' eggs for the benefit Of the
poor of his parish.

COSTS OF THE COUNTY SEAT FIGHT,
The Commissioners Do Not Intend to Pay
Them Out Of the Public Funds.

A few weeks ago, when Judge
Pickett ordered the mandate requir-
ing the County Commissioners to move
the records to Haley, to issue, it was
feared that the Board would pay all
costs and other expenses Of the pro-
tracted county seat litigation out of
the public funds. In order to pre-
vent this suit was brought in the
name Of Joseph A. Rupert against the
County Commissioners and Treasurer
Of Alturas county, praying for tenn
porary order enjoining these officials
from paying out of the public funds
any of the expenses and costs so in
Cured; and praying, further, that the
injunction be made perpetual. The
temporary order was issued.
Yesterday the case was called up,
when Mr.. Hawley, counsel for the
officials, disclaimed any intention, on
the part OF said officials, to pay the
said expenses and costs out of the
public funds, and, while claiming that
the presidents were against the
validity or equity of such an order he
said that, inasmuch as they had no in
tention of using the public funds for
the purpose stated, the officials re-.
ferred to had no objection to the max
ing of the order prayed for.
The case will therefore probably be
dropped from the calendar. S. b.
kingsbury, I. Angel, L. +. Ensign,
T. Ganahl and w. H. Beatty, are
counsel for plaintiff.

Glass. Ball Shooting.

A glass-ball shooting match came
off last evening at the foot of Main
street, in this city, between w. T.
Riley and Mr.. Hawkins, of the sam
ping works. Each contest had FIVE
shots. Mr.. Riley broke five balls and
Mr.. Hawkins four. The latter missed
the first shot, but his last was a double
one, as he broke the ball and killed a
hawk that flew past, at the same time.
This match will doubtless lead to
many others.

A Pack Animal Killed,

While the road is building to the
Wolftone dump, supplies are taken
up by pack animals. The trail is
steep and dangerous, and a few days
since one of the pack animals lost its
balance, fell off the trail, and rolled
down about 100 feet, landing in about
three feot of water, but with such
force as to break the animals neck.
