The Humming Birds Nest.

The nest is about an inch in diameter
and as much in depth, with it's outside
constructed of the blush gray moss
taken from old trees and fences, and
thiekly glued to the interior with the
saliva of the bird. Within are thick
layers of the fine wings of flying seeds,
and lastly, the downy substance from
the great mullen and from the stalks of
the common fern line the whole. The
eggs are two, and pure white. A short
time before the young leave the nest
they can be seen thrusting their tiny bills
into the mouths of their parents, and
sucking what has been brought them q
very different method of feeding from
that Of most young birds.

IT ADDS greatly, says the Haa0keye.
to your appreciation of detective htera-
ture to read in the book how the lynx
eyed detective, with sleepless vigilance,
hovers ever on the track of the fugitive,
and see things that are hidden from all
other eyes, and with an unerring wisdom
always collars the right man at the very
right time and place, and never by any
possibility permits a guilty man to
escape, and then pick up your daily
paper and read how man has just died
in the next town, confessing on his
death-bead to having committed the
seventeen mysterious and daring MUIR
ders, and the two bank robberies that
shocked the community twenty three

SHY EYES! sly EYES!

pray you, for moments space,
Maiden, uplift your downcast face,
That may mark the morning rise,
Now curtained by those Orient eyes,
Too long so coldly, coyly hid
Beneath the fringed and tremulous lid:
Shy eyes sly eyes
Over your golden ritual bent,
Are you ON pious dreams intent2
Yet something like a sidewise hint,
A transient CLEAN, fleeting CLINT,
AS of blue lightning seems to flash
From out each long and languid lssh:
Shy eyes sly eyes
Rolled down the solemn minister calm,
Peal the deep notes of prayer and psalm
The people kneel, the people rise,
And still you will not lift your eyes,
Nor let me-naughty maiden See
The brightness of their witchery:
Shy eyes sly eyes
The Dean within the pulpit stands,
With reverent mien and stainless bands,
All through his sermon, grave and wise,
1 cannot move to meet your eyes,
Though by your bonnet's tilted brim
know they're eoyly raised to him:
Shy eyes sly eyes
Well, now the goal of quiet's won
The prayers are o'er, the sermon done;
At last, unveiled, and glorious, rise
The splendors of your Eastern eyes,
And yetso tender is their shine,
One moment lifted up to mine,
I.vow their light is half divine:
Fond eyes! sweet eyes

Foreign Population of New York

The French residents of New York,
says correspondent of the Buffalo
Courier, number about 10000. For go
small part of the population, the
French is certainly an important one.
1t is prominent in business, in society,
in the professions, in works of benevo-
lence, and many other ways. Consider
ing its relative numbers, it may be said
to hold the lead in this respect among
the foreign classes. According to the
census quoted a moment ago, New
York's total foreign population when it
was made Tin 1890 was 478,0OO. It
must now be well beyond 500, 900, for
New York has retained large part of
the tremendous tide of immigration
that has flowed in since. Over $50, 900
of last years arrivals were credited to
New York, but the bulk of these re-
mained here only for a while. The
native population at the same time was
7O8, 900, but probably half of these were
the children of foreign parents. If this
class and the foreign born we're counted
together they would certainly make up
more than half of the whole population.
Of the foreigners counted in 1880 nearly
200, 900 were born in Ireland. The ex-
act census figure is 1859 The Irish
were supposed to be more numerous
than that, but still the number is very
large. The Germans comprised 153,-
600, the English 10000, the Italians
1900, and the Dutch (Hollanders), who
did SO much for Manhattan in the old
times, only 1900. The Chinese num-
bered, it seems, just TAT.

A SAGINAW. man, Thursday, pleaded
guilty to driving his horse faster than
six miles an hour, and paid five dollars
fine. That puts us in mind of another
Saginaw man who drove what he consid-
cred fast horse, and one day he got q
friend to complain on him for fast driv.
ing, and then pleaded guilty and paid
the fine. Being asked why, he said that
it would add $40 to the value of the
horse to have it reported that he was ar.
rested for fast driving. "But why die
you plead guilty?" "Well, the fact is,
I was afraid it couldn't be proved by
anybody. y."-,saginaa0 Courier.

The Secretary further announced O
communication from the Rev. Jasper,
OF Virginia, asking the club to indorse
his theory that the sun moves, but
Brother Gardner said that the time was
not ret ripe. In the years gone by some
one had started the theory that the sun
stood still while the earth moved around
it, and the majority of people had come
to accept that theory as fact 1t might
be radically wrong, and yet the man who
brought forward any other theory would
be scoffed at and called crank. His
advice to Rev. Jasper was to hang to his
theory and wait.
