The English Sparrow Condemned.

The Ornithologists' Union, in session
at New York recently discussed the Eng
lis sparrow question. The committees
report was based on replies 10 q circular
letter of inquiry sent out to agncultur-
lists and skilled observers in varions~ ~por-
tions of the United States and Canada.
The conclusion of the committee may
be summarized as follows: The spar
row is able and willing to destroy vari-
GUS crops of grain and fruit, and in
large numbers to threaten very seriously
the husbandry of agriculture and hor-
ticulture. BY the enormous increase OF
the sparrow many native insectivorous
birds have been forced away from pub
lie parks. The most serious feature of
the bird is the damage it may effect in
tle great wheat fields Of the west. The
enormous increase Of this bird must very
soon result in furnishing ample numbers
for that purpose, and this subject thus
assumes proportions Of immense and
serious Importance. The committee
made these ggestions: That the re-
port embodying the result Of its inves>
legations be sent to every legislative
body in the United States and the Brit
isl;< provinces, that the legislatures be at
once asked to fix 4 penalty for sale or
introduction Of this bird, the penalty to
as severe as possible, and that all pro.
tectlve laws affecting the sparrow be re-
pealed; that measures for lessening the
numbers Of the bird wherever they have
become q nuisance, be az once taken,
such measures to be in the hands of the
authorities; all facilities for protecting
and feeding being denied, the birds being
thus put on Al equal footing, at least
with native birds.

The Study OF Books.

There is perhaps 40 greater wonder
than g book. By the help Of little fig
ures or make placed upon reeds or
skins, Or some other available material,
men have been able to transmit their
thoughts through thousands of years.
The names and shapes Of things, the
deeds and sorrows that have occurred as
far back as the time Of Adam have been
made known to Us. Even those abstract
and invisible thoughts, which have no
shape or substance, but which neverthe-
less inspired the writer. and have since
inspired otherV arc all put down in little
letters or fgurss and made eternal. The
songs of David, the sublime grieving5 of
Joh, the speculatioas of Plato, the Wis
ions of Homer, have by these means
been handed down faithfully for many
centuries.
TO read, mark, learn and inwardly di.
gest all the thoughts and learning Of
others is evidently impossible. 1t is be-
yond the compass of any intellect But
we may gather portion Of this knowI-
edge, and the object is to know how to
begin this humber task.
We must not read to waste. We mus,
be moderate if we wish to gain much.
The bee does not overload himself with
the nectar Of flowers. but takes what he
can carry away. We must select also,
and see that the quality OF what we take
be good.
We should read not merely that we
may make money, not to sharpen our
intellect, but to enlarge it. We should
read in order to know and feel what Is
good and what is evil and to do what is
good and useful. Are we ambitious LET
rs learn humility Are we avaricious :?
let Us learn content. When O man can
truly say to himself, My mind to me a
kingdom S, kingdom of which he is
the absolute ruler

WINTER OYERCOATS.
Single Hreaeted Fiy-Front Sack.

The leading overcoat is the single
breasted tiy-front sack, or Chesterfield,
now made of diagonal Worsted, and later
Of elysian and fur beaver. In length it
reaches about an inch below the knee.
The lapels are inclined to the peaked
form, and are of good width The edges
are finished with velvet piping, and the
seams ere Tapped and stitched half an
inch wide with rapidly increasing fre-
qUency.
Although fur beavers are just now the
most popular goods for these coats,
there is a pronounced disposition on
the part Of New Workers to select heavy
weight wide vale diagonals instead. The
idea IS that this material gives su ilicient
warmth for the coolest weather we
have, and looks much better in milder
weather. Made from this class of goods,
the edges are fiat braided wide, and the
seams Tapped and stitched.
The fiat-braid finish is also receiving
considerable favor for fur beavers, and
certainly is effective. We should not
be surprised If flat braiding should be-
come the rage for all class of goods, and
piping became unpopular.
These overcoats are cut large and
loose, only family defining the back,
and seem to be gradually approaching
the box form.
The fronts are faced to the end of
collar and sometimes to the edge of
holes with quilted silk of matalasse
effect.
Later in the season, the double
breasted oversack viii be largely made.
This coat will reach to midway of the
calf and will be cut very large with
heavy and sharp effect, the lapels will
be peaked and wide, the collar liberal,
the flaps deep and the buttons set well
back from the edges and spaced to con-
siderable below the side pockets.
The indications are that this coat will
become quite popular.
The surtout promises to be in moder-
ate demand with good dressers. II will

Yankee Speculation.

Some astute observer has -emarEeo
that if two Yankees were cast away on a
desert island they would each make
fortune by swapping jack knives. This
noney-making propensity of the Yankee
was illustrated some years ago in South
Africa.
An enterprising son of New England
had found his way to the Cape Of Good
Hope. Looking around for chance to
speculate the idea struck him that it
would pay to exhibit party OF kafirs in
London.
In short time he had collected half
dozen Kafrs from a farm within fifty
miles of Cape Town. He had them in
structed in the native dances and took
them to London, where they appeared
clothed in skins and lustrous in paint.
A hafir war was then going on, fact
OF which the speculating Yankee made
good use in his show bills. These ka-
frs became the rage and thousands of
Londoners and visitors to that city
thronged the exhibition hall.
1t happened that about that time
Dutch farmer from the Cape,
De Beer, was in London. Seeing a
show-bill advertisement of the appear
ance of wild Kafirs, taken captive in
war, he went to the hall. The perform.
ance went on as usual, until suddenly two
of the kafirs rushed from the stage, and
clasping the farmer round the neck,
shouted out in Dutch:
"Why, here is old Papa De Beer!'
The other Kafirs jumped off the stage
and threw their arms about the Dutch.
man. He struggled with many Dutch
expletives to release himself from their
greasy embraces.
eThe audience, thinking the war ~
stincts of the savages had led thea to
attempt to murder a spectator, were
thrown into great excitement. Tt was
with difficulty that the Dutchman could
make himself heard. He finally calmed
the excitement by explaining that these
wild Kafirs were bis own farm hands,
whom the Yankee Spectator had enticed
away some six months before.
