PARROTS.
Some Extraordinary stories About
These HouseAoea Pets

! Mr.. -+Blaaak of Blank" in M0rkshire.
l.had fever about Christmas time. and
sahis parrot was taken from the di ming
lroom to the kitchen for greater quiet.
lit remained there several weeks, during
Khich it stole.th raisins intended for a
plum-pudding. The cook in anger threw
some hot grease at it and scalded its
head When DIR. Blank got better the
parrots cage was taken up stairs. again.
Mr.. Blank with newly shaved head, APP
preached. The, parrot turned. one eye
upon him and said slowly: You bald
headed ruffian! So you stole the,oook's
plums! !" There may have been some
appropriateness in the mind of Dean
| sion. While theflamented Dean was a
canon at Canterbury. a gentleman who
was inEited to breakfast found al the
servants assembled in the garden ,gaz-
ing up: at a laburnum in which the par
rot was at large. AT that moment the
canon came out. The parrot looked
down at him and said in a low but dis
tinct voice, exactly like Standley's.
IL ct US pray ~ Here is q clear example
to prove that something very like
thought passed through his mind. The
servants were assembled as he had seen
them assemble for morning prayers
They were standing as they stood when
the lesson had been read, and they were
about to kneef and the parrot SAID ex-
actly,wha was always said under such
circumstances. Perhaps the most curl
Gus of these examples is one which
comes to US from private bird,fancier.
A grey parrot was stationed in a
nursery, where his greatest delight was |
to see the baby bathed. An infantile |
complaint seized the child. and the par |
rot was removed to the kitchen. There, |
after a time, he set up terrible cry. |
1.-The baby! The dear baby!" All the
family rushed down to find the parrot
in the widest excitement sswatching the
roasting OF sucking pig.
DR.. Russ judiciously advises that
young and untaught bird should be
placed beside one which is tame and
talks well He tells curious story of
a Grey which taught young Amazon.
When the pupil did not learn his words
correctly, the Grey would say, Block
head" and turn away CONTEMPORARY.
Yet CIVier thought there was no intelli-
gence and no power OF transmitting It's
in the mind of the
parrot. Eventually the Grey and the
Amazon were able to converse. Rosa,
The Grey, would say, Have you any
to which Coco would reply,
No." in serrowful voice Rosa
would give the name of the Emperor,
md Coco would calculate. Long life to
lim!' A third parrot is described
which talks but little, though it has
,ther accomplishments, and is delighted
It being dressed up as doll and laid in
cradle.

tion that the occasion will be made one Of
practical interest both 10 teachers, and to pa
rents and all others interested Ia public edu-

death.

The WarIn Danby.

One Of the most interesting and amusing
features OF the Dandy post-ofdce investiga-
ton, which was rt0pened on Tuesday and is
likely to last all this week, has been the re-
turn Of the recommendation and certificates
sent to Washington by the friends Of the can
didAtes which we're not intended for publicity
but have been put into the evidence much to
the discomfort of the signers. There we're
dozen who signed both Bonds and Adams's
petitions, and there were some who went
farther and to please each candidate recon-
mended both TO the department. The return
Of these recommendations with other papers
sent to the department as to certain charges,
and their admission as evidence in Dandy,
where the people concerned live and the
truth OF the statements can be tested, is not
only unexpected but exceedingly embarras-
ing TO the writers. The shooting Of Capt
Bonds heifer is still dragged into the post
office fght and although no one charges Ad-
ans with the deed, 1t has been laid to some
of his associates who are bitterly opposed to
Bond. Though there are those who will
swear to the bullet hole in the heifer, some
claim that the heifer died of indigestion
through eating rotten potatoes, and was not
shot at ALL The whole town is embroiled in
the contest.
