Senator stanford,s Parrot.

Senator Stanford has a parrot, and a re-
markable one, too. 1t cost him several hun
dred dollars, and is a wonderfully educated
bird. 1t speaks four languages - English,
French, German and Italian. The strange
part of it is that the parrot, as soon as bs
hears anyone speak, knows in what language
TO address the person. For long while Ii
one knew that the parrot spoke Italian, until
one day an Italian artist came to the house to
do some work, and the parrot heard him talk
At once the parrot started off to jahber
Italian, and had quite a conversation with
the man. 1t always talks German to Ger
man servant and French to the maid. The
parrot, when any one comes down in the morn
ing says; "Good morning; l hope you rested
we'll" He is very particular, and one day,
when a stranger went up to him and said:
pretty Polly! Polly want a crackerfn he
quite astonished the person by saying: "Ob,
stop that foolishness. Can't you talk sense.
am tired of that rot" The parrot has not
learned to say chcstnuts yet, but very often,
when asked if he wants a cracker, says:
That's old; give me something new" He
longs to sing, and knows "Peell-a-boo" and
chants it loudly at times to the amusement of
all in hearing. The parrot has its favorites
among the inmates of the Stanford residence,
and will talk for hours with them.-COr.

rho ..snm,ner NYidower,s,, Linen.

During the summer months the best Gus
toners in my line of business are men whose
families are absent for the summer. The care
of their linen has always been mtrusted to the
wife. When the stock on hand is soiled, then
the summer widower drops III every day or
two III a hurry, purchases suit OF under
clothing, a shirt or collar or pair OF cuffs,
dashes into a bath room and changes. A few
DAYS before his wife comes home he devOtes
half day to going around and gathering up
his scattered linen. He generally finds the
pile amazing in proportions. l recall one
young man who lived at the Elks club while
his wife was at the seashOre, who in this way
accumulated i'll a single summer five dozen
shirts, about thirty suits of underwear and
collars AMI cuffs enough to start a store with.

evil.
Ouidd: If the Venus de Medici could

only remark that her waist is large.

on his companions. Relations, like
features, are thrust upon us; compan-
ions like clothes, are more or less our
own selection.
Nine. de SeUigne: One loves to talk

tires of tete-a-tete with lover for
years. That is the reason why a

The Two New Comets.

Two comets are bowling along to-
wards the earth at pretty rapid rate.
They have already been within the
range of the astronomers telescopes
for over three months, and within an
other month or six weeks it is probable
that they will burst upon the view of
the general public, or, in other words,
become visible to the naked eye. Prof.
Frisby, of Washington Observatory,
who has charge of the comet depart
ment, has been making observations
for some time upon the celestial new
cOmers.
One of these comets is known as
Fabry's comet, and was discovered
December /. The other is Barnard's
comet, discovered two days later. Com
cts receive the names Oftheir discover
ers until they are identified as being
some comet known in the past, or until
the yearly catalogue of comets is made
up, when they are classified by num-
bers merely as "NO. 1-1SS6, mo. 3
1886, and so on.
These comets not only came within
the range of the telescopes about the
same time, but it appears probable that
they will both be visible to the naked
eye in the heavens about the same
time. They will become visible, it is
thought, about the latter part of April
or early in May, just when the nights
are becoming warm enough to tempt
lovers out for evening strolls. A pair
of comets in the sky will afford Il most
reasonable excuse for strolling in the
starlight. Fabry's comet will be in
perheliOn between April 6 and 10, and
Barnardis about May 3.
Both comets will come very near the
earth and sun. They are now seen by
the astronomers in the early evening
in the Northwest. Now they present
the appearance of vapory nebulous
masses, with bright centres, which are
rapidly growing brighter and more dis
tinct in appearance as the two wander
ers approach the earth. Barnard S comet
has been supposed to be identical with
the comet of 1885, as its elements ap-
pear to be be about the same; but this
has not been determined with GER
tainty.

Political Thoughts in Embryo.

A writer in the Wilmington Sta' in
discussing some political thoughts has
the following reference to the Knights:
The Knights Of Labor are giving
good deal of attention to the laws of
the State just now. The writer struck
a group of four the other evening who
were lamenting that so many of their
members were DISTINGUISHED. They
appeared to be afraid that even their
Democratic members would not be sup
piled with tax receipts on election day
as had been the custom, because the
collectors and their party advisers had
their doubts as to the continued LOYALTY
of the Democrats.
They said that the Republicans who
were assessed could not get the receipts
unless each man, individually, called
for them at the collectors office that
the Republican candidates could not
pay the taxes this spring in punches,
as they had frequently done, because
the collectors were uncertain where
their own former followers stood since
this labor agitation had been sprung.
This group of Knights agreed that the
State was twenty years behind the
times in its laws, and said that Stock
ley's administration had been the worst
and the weakest in their recollection.
They ridiculed the territorial" rep
resentation idea, and wanted to know
how many immigrants Mr.. Dean had
brought into this State under Stockley's
big idea of pOpulating the State. They
promised that unless the restrictions
should be removed by the next Legis-
lature from the exercise of the right of
suffrage by the workingmen they
would exert themselves within the or
der of the Knights of Labor to get an
organized plan into operation that
would not only put every male Knight
of the proper age upon the assessment
list, but that would also pay his poll
tax.
When the writer reminded them that
next fall a Governor would be elected
for four years, who would fill almost
every Office in the State by appoint
ment, they again deplored their help
less condition. They thought that the
Legislature of 1889 might at least
be so constituted through their efforts
that it would knock the spots out ofthe
system of appointing nearly all the
county officers.

VICE AND IGNoRANCE.-Says the

the cause which makes the evil sue

The American Weeping Willow
a ROMANTIC HISTORY ATTACHED Tc
THIS TREE.

"The American weeping willow
seems to have had romantic story.
The first scion was sent from Smyrna
in a box of figs to Alexander Pope
General Clifton brought a shoot from
Pope's tree to America, in the time Of
the revolution, which, passing into the
hands of John Parke Custis. was
planted on his estate in Virginia, thus
hecoming the protector Of the weeping
willow in this country"
The above slip is taken from a Chi
cagO paper. Some four or five years
since we made a ramble over the farm
of Mr.. Alfred Ray, in this county, an
account of which appeared in the Sen
tjnet. We cannot now recall whether
we referred to the two venerable weep
ing willows which stood near Mr..
Rays residence or not the ravages OF
time had made sad havoc, and there
was little left to tell of their former
luXuriance save their immense trunks.
over which, here and there, could be
traced the vestige of initials of those
who had evidently loved to rest and
doubtless muse under their deep and
cooling shade.
We then learned that these two will
lows were planted by Robert Y. Brent,
and were obtained from General Cliff
ton from a bunch of eight shoots.
Parke Custis received two, Dudley
Diggs, of Prince Georges county, two
making in all, with the two received
by Mr.. Brent, eight. So whatever OF
romance there is in connection with
the weeping willow of this country.
Montgomery county has an equal share
through one of her honored and la
mented citizens.
In the old graveyard on the farm of
Mr.. George II. Graham, near St. Mi
chaels, Talbot county, are some males-
tic weeping willows which are lineal
descendants, once removed of the fa-
nous st. Helena weeping willows that
shadowed the grave of the great Ma
pOleon.-Ed. Of EastOn Ledger.
