Birds in the Unaccustomed snow.

FROM :he Richmond (ya-) Dispatch, Jan. II.
The English sparrows that were so much
huded and welcomed when they were first
brought here and since their prodigious increase
and rapacious inroads upon smaller birds have
been SO much detested. find 1t hard to get suf-
ncient food to support life. When killed. as
boys ind it easy for them to do now. thew are
seen to be very poor. There are plenty of peo-
pie here who wish that all of them were dead.
and so they will be If this inhospitable weather
continues and hOuseholders fail to throw out
crumbs TO them. The markets show that all
sorts Of birds are falling easy prev to the hunt
ers. Even the hammer-b eaked and brilliant.
plumaged woodpecker is killed and brought
Into the markets for sale. As for old hares their
race for life In this snow cannot be very success
ful, as hundreds of them are daily brought into
market. II the game is really to fall victim to
the snow 1t is a good time to bring it into
market. Provisions are high. and will be
higher, for country roads are delightful now to
what they will be hereafter, when the general

The IkObber and the Editor.
ON the Virginia City Enterprise.


'Listen, my children" said venerable man,
sand will tell YOU story, beautiful and true.
Once upon time there was bad, bold robber,
who had his haunt in the wilds of a mountain
At the foot of the mountain, in the valley, was
village. 1t was not very large village, yet
in it newspaper was printed. The rObber
looked upon tine editor OF the newspaper as be-
ing the chief man OF the village, and thought he
must be very rich. So one dark night he came
into the dwelling of the editor and then into
the room where he slept. The editor, being
good man, slept as sOundly and sweetly
as child. The robber searched all the
place, but could not find the caskets of gold
and diamonds he had supposed to be stored up
In the room. He then put his hands in all the
pockets Of the clothes of the editor, but found
no money in any of them. The rObber then
stood for time as In stupOr. He was like
one awakened from dream. He listened for
the sleeping editor. and as he stood so he began
to feel sad. The heart of the bold, bad man
was touched. Quietly he took from his purse
"a. IS, placed the money in the pantaloons pocket
| Of the editor, and softly stole from the house.
In the morning, when the editor got up and put
on his pantalOOns, there was a jingle as of
money. A look Of establishment came into the
face of the editor. He put his hand into his
pocket and drew out the money. When he saw
this great wealth the knees Of the editor smote
toSCtuCif HC tuAuCu potc, luiuttU, 8IU lcll 10
the floor, and there lay as one who is dead"
"Ohl OH grandfather, did they catch the bad
| robber man and hang him on tree?"
.'No, my dears, they did not catch the bad,
! bold robber. He is still living. From that day
he reformed, and got place as cashier in big
bank, where you will be glad to hear that he is
doing well and is greatly respected by all in his
/ church,
"And the poor editor man, grandfather! What
! became of him?"
"Ah, yes. my darlngs! had almost forgot
| ten him. Well, when he came out of his faint,
and his eyes again saw all the money lying
about the room where 1t had fallen, he was
sorely perplexed. At last he felt sure It had
| been quietly placed In his pocket in the night
by great and rich nelghbor who owned q tan
yard and was running for the legislature So
for days and days he printed in his paper
whole columns Of praise of the rich neighbor
who was elected to the Office and ever after the
two men were the greatest friends. Thus, my
dears, do good actions always meet with theii
| reward"

From the Chicago Tribune
The day was beautiful one, but little Dottie
was sad because her dear Mamma had gone out
and locked up the Pie She was sitting on the
Floor and pulling the cats Tail, when who
should come in but Miss Lucy. Miss Lucy was
Chicago girl who was spending her Vacation
at Pumpkin Dell (Which was the name of the
Town where Dollie lived) and was pretty Fly
where Is your Mamma Darlng?" she asked,
but Dottie did not reply, because she had
noticed that when Miss Lucy called her
Pole on something about Dottfe's Papa or
Mamma which she wished to Find Out. Dottie
was somewhat inclined to be Fly herself. So
she kept on pulling the cats Tail and singing in
her sweet. childish voice little Ballad that her
brother had taught her:
Our Thomas cat he crossed the road
Because he crossed the road,
AND the reason that he crossed the road
was because he crossed the road
When Dottie had finished the first stanza of
this Ballad Miss Lucy spoke to her again.

asked Dottie, her pure young face lighting up
with Bright Smile. 'sDried-apple shortcake +
replied Miss Lucy. Then DOttie was silent for
moment; because she loved dried-appIe short

she should 60 away her Mamma would be very

Beauty and Extravagance.

From the London Daily News.
Do woman look prettier for all this increased
expenditure? Oldlsh men say, "Ah, there are
no pretty girls now, such as there were when
was young fellow" Young men say, "What
guys women made of themselves before the
present style of dress came in The truth is,
probably, that pretty woman charms In any
dress. not because Of it, but frequently in spite
of it; while plain woman is often enough sty-
lish in her get-up, taking especial trouble to be
perfectly correct in detail since she cannot hope
successfully to compete in point of looks. Ex-
travagance, then. is by no means necessary to the
setting of of beauty, and as for the common ex-
cuse. that lavish expenditure Ia good for trade it
furnishes knife that cuts both ways. If expenses
increase In one direction they must necessarily
be limited in another; and If one set of trades
men get the Benjamin portion of mans in
come Through his wife and daughters), some
other sets obtain less than they otherwise
would. There were, of course. eXtravagant
women In the days of crinOline and back chair
but their very extravaganza would now almost
be considered as economy. AS compared with
the powers of spending money of woman to-
day, it was "as moonlight unto sunlight and
as water unto wine" With all these blue vel
low and scarlet ribbons for temperance in drink
will no one start a white ribbon for temperance
in costume? 1t might be at first difficult to OBJ
tain recruits. but, there certainly are few
women of England who have been secretly hop
ing for backward tide In the flow of present
extravaganza, and who would gladly hail the
initiation of far different state of thngs-a re-
action in favor of simplicity and purer taste.

Compulsory Vaccination - Some
Points About the Act Relating 10
Children of the Public Schools.

An act providing for the vaccination of
children in the public schools WAS passed
by the Legislature on March 2lst last.
The first two sections Of this act read as
follows
Sec. /. Trustees or commissioners of school
districts and boards of education are re-
quired within one month after the passage
Of this act to oblge all children applying for
admission to the free schools and all children
who have previously been admitted to the
said schools to be vacoinated unless already
protected from small pox by vaccination or
by an attack of smallpox.
Sec. 2. The said commissioners Or boards
of education shall have copy Of the fore
going section posted at the door of every
school house for two weeks before it shall be
carried into effect; such notice shall state
how such free vaccination shall be procurrred
under the provision of this act.
Dr., Springer Of the Board of Health
pronounoes the act a good one and be-
lieves that it will in a measure abate the
spreading of small pox in case the CITY
ia ever again visited by the disease. He
thinks II can be easily enforced and says
the Board of Education should employ
some person to see that 1t is enforced. 1t
is his opinion that the Board of Health
has nothing to do with the matter. That
body has not discussed the subject yet,
but may do 80 at it's next meeting. in
conclusion Mr.. Springer said Il: 1--WE
doctors have the greatest difficulty in
vsccinsing colored adults who come here
from other places. These persons have
an absurd idea that vaccination is danger
Gus and they will never get vaccinated
until they are compelled to do So"
Superintendent of Schools David W.
Harlan thinks the matter will come under
the Jurisdiction of the Board Of Eduoa-
tiOn but does not know in what manner
that body will enforce the act.
