ANCIENT MYTHOLOGY.
The Lene.,a Of fan C,,cEoo

The LeGe:ad Of tsse CGcl:oo.
It is q common belief that the cuckoo
is & Transformed girl calling her brother
In Servia the cuckoo, ka6avjtza, was a
girl who lamented her brothers death
so long that she was turned into Q
cuckoo. This in itself is not very CIR
cumstantial, but Albania supplies d
more complete story. There were onco
two brothers and sister. The latter
accidentally killed one of them by get
ting up suddenly from her needle-work
and piercing him to the heart with her
scissors. She and the surviving brother
mourned so much that they were
turned into birds; he cries out to the
lost brother by night gion, giO11, and
she by day, kaG kaI, kat kW, which means
"Where are you?" The cuckoo, says
the Bohemian legend, once had crown
on her head, till at wedding among
the birds, at which the hoopoe was
bridegroom, she lent it and has never
been able to get it back. He is always
crying out kathat, which means "You
rascal, to which the other replies, jd2G,
jdu, Il come, come," but comes not.
The Bohemians also take the cuckoo for
an enchanted miller or baker. The
latter is more enchanting story, as be-
ing either Of post-Christian origin, or
else pagan memory transferred, as SO
often happened, into Christian dress.
Christ, passing one day bakers shop,
sent one of His disciples in TO ask for
some new bread. The baker refused to
give it, but his wife and six daughters,
who were compassionate, delivered
some secretly to the disciple. In re-
ward they were placed among the stars,
as the Plei2des; but the baker was
turned into cuckoo, and it confirms
this story that his cry is heard as long as
those seven stars are visible in the sky.
In Poland long ago it was a capital
crime to kill cuckoo The apparent
reason was that Zywiec, who in old
Slavonic mythology was the ruler Of
the universe, used to change himself
CAS- Zeus once did and Indra too) into
cuckoo, in order to announce to mortals
the number of years they had to live; a
belief so real that multitudes used
to flock every May to Zywiecs
temple, on the mountain that was
called after his name, to pray for long
life and prosperous health. 70 this
day it is a common article Of folklore
belief that SO many years yet remain TO
man Of life as he hears the cuckoo's
voice for the first time in the spring.
And a monkish historian has handed
down, for the edifcat;on Of posterity,
the story of the worldly-minded brother
who, tired Of the monotony OF convent
life, resolved to ask Of the cuckoo tho
number of years yet allotted him to
live. The bird having said twenty-five,
the monk resolved to devote himself
for a season to the pleasures cf this
world and yet have time before him to
prepare for the next; but, alas the
bird was heathenish and therefore a
false oracle to listen to, and death sur
prised the recreant monk in the TWEEN
tieth year, still absorbed in Temporal
enioyments and vanities. Corn

The second game of ball between the
Browns and the Union Pacifs, of Omaha,
was played at the park yester-
day afternoon. There were some
thing over 1000 people in attendance.
The game was too one sided to be inter
esting. The home club had been weak
ened by the resignation of Capt. Bennett,
who, by the way, played with the Omahas
and had the proud distinction of pounding
two-base hit in the first inning and max
ing the first run. O'Brien the new
captain OF the Browns, and who
Is credited with being the coolest
player in The club made costly
errors. The outer fielding of the Browns
was too slow to be effective, with the ex-
ception, perhaps, Of two spendid plays by
Tuelle in the field. The catching of Web
ster elected general applause, and Muir
phys base running was the best ever seen
in Minneapolis.
Toward the last, the Omahas batted Mur-
ply terrifcally and broke the home club
all up, as will be seen by the following
score:

A CORRESPONDENT writes to know If
we think tobacco a good thing to use in
hen roost, to keep the fowls healthy.
We would not advise it. A La Crosse
gentleman, who was great fancier,
tried tobacco in beautiful hen house
that he built, and few days after he
went into the building and a large
Bramah rooster was chewing tobacco
and splitting on the floor, and the hens
gathered around the rooster asking for
a chew of tobacco We should advise
a total abstinence from tobacco in a
hen house, if our correspondent desires
to promote morality among the hens.--
