GOVERNOR TABOR AND sAML OF
POSEN'S PARROT.

NJ. B. Curtis and his wife have a pet
parrot which is their constant travelling
companion, and which speaks the Kings
English with amazing fuence. The bird
caused quite panic at the Windsor Hotel
one night. 1t seems that the Curtis family
occupied rooms directly adjoining Gov
ernor Tabors apartments at the hotel,
and one evening, as the governor was en-
tering his apartments he heard what he
thought was female voice saying, "Hcllo,
baby" The governor WAS trihe startled.
He is very gallant man, but he could not
for the life of him imsgine what he had
ever done to warrant any female in al.
dressing him so iamiliarly. The saluta-
ton appeared to be intended for him, and
it came from the transom over the door of
the room directly across the hall. The
governor was non.plused. Hello, baby
pretty baby" said the voice again, and
the governor biushed as be stroked bis
fierce mustache aud tried to brace up and
look dignlded Wont you come and
kiss your babyl' called the voice again, in
a deliciously seductive sort of way.
Now the governor seldom takes dare Of
any kind To do him justice, be is
brave man, and at that particular moment
he felt big enough to tackle an army. He
crept softly over to the door and asked,
"Are you talking 10 met" Mice baby"
said the voice, but no sooner had the voice
spoken than another voice from inside the
room big, burly, mans voice called out,
go away from that door and let the parrot

An Unfortunate Man.

OF late years Orange Judd, of n.
y, the well known former publisher
and owner of the Amer1cdH Aqricult-
uriSt, has not been identified with
the business which he so long and
successfully conducted. 1t was sup
posed that he was man of indie
pendent fortune, and when last
Thursday he made an assignment
with preference for S11, ,3O6. his
friends were surprised. Mr.. Judd is
well known for his liberal gifts to
churches, Sunday schools and char
liable enterprises of every kind.
When he retired from the publish
ing business his wealth was still con-
siderable, but unlucky investments
| in real estate and railroads. together
with his habit of reckless and indis-
criminate giving, crippled and ulti-
mately destroyed his impaired es-
tate. His liabilities are simply all
overdue notes. and it is not known
whether anything tangible remains
as security for his obligations. Mr..
Judd is one of the few men whose
failure may be traced directly to an
excess of generosity. His willing
ness to give, led the conductors Of
every enterprise, whether legitimate
or unworthy, to appeal to him. and
rarely in vain. Mr.. Judd is left al
most penniless in his old age. He
is now reported to be seriously i'll at
his summer house in Florida, New
York.

The plaintiff boarded the train

There was plenty of room i'll the
car, so the plaintiff was in no ones

travelling the road-in fact it has to

plaintiff had not been on board. The
machinery would not have been
worn any more by hauling the
plaintiff. The president of the road
would not have been in the least in

A Devils Den Full of Mysteries.

Five miles west of Great Barring
ton is the little township of Afford.
whose inhabitants are engaged en-
tirely in farming. A reliable gentle.
man from there states that while an
old farmer was out hunting black
snakes Sunday he made the disccv-
ery of wonderful cave in lime
STONE ledge. The cave has been
christened Devils den. Since its
discovery parties have been endeav-
oring to explore it with lighted
torches. They could only go in a
few rods when, owing to the poison
Gus gases, the torches began to burn
dimly, and in one case, where man
ventured too far ahead of his com.
panions, he was overcome by the
poisonous gass, he was rescued with
difficulty. So far as known the cave
it large, with rooms and passages
and it is thought that by making the
mouth larger the gases will escape
and the cave can be explored with
safety.
