The MOCking.Rird.

This amusing songster, so highly es teemed in the countries to which it is imported, is almost as common in some parts of Central America as the robins are in our country lanes. Free in the woods they learn to initiate number of birds so correctly as to deceive any one. The hooking bird is by no means weak or timid, and can defend itself against score of other birds. They are quar- relsome, living alone, except at certain seasons when they seek mates, soon to separate again. The mocking-bird se- lects some tree, particularly that called the royal palm, and makes it it's head quarters as soon as the fruit is ripe, ap- bearing like clusters of golden berries beneath the broad waving leaves. The bird in possession of the tree devotes his time and attention to guarding the fruit. He cannot possibly eat it all, but will allow no other share of it, and this is not so much because he thinks of the morrow as because he loves to dis pute. He pretends to be not at home while all the time he is lying in wait. He will perch on the roof os the nearest house, or, if away from haStations, on another tree, keeping as silent as 8 mouse does when 8 cat Is hard by, not even indulging in ''forty winks." The instant some bright-winged songster alights among that yellow fruit, down swoops the watcher, and trouble ensues, generally ending in the unwelcome vis- itor being driven off as hungry s.s he came, temper and feathers both rufed. Then back to the housetop or tree flies the mooker to await patiently anoShe, adversary.

A NEW EXPLOSIVE.
"Extralite" is Twice as Powerful as
 Dynamite.

Rudolph Ericsson, of New Britain, Ct., has been experimenting to find a new explosive that would be as powerful as dynamite but less dangerous to handle, and has been suc- cessful. In experimenting a small fire was start ed, and two pounds of Extralite was put into it. The stuff would neither explode nor burn. A small dynamite cartridge was inserted in a roll of the stuff. The cartridge was exploded with a fuse, but the Extralite did not ex- plode. When some of the substance was placed on a fat stone and struck with ham, mer, the only result was to reduce it to finer powder. A hole two feet deep was drilled in the hardest rock to be found. Three rolls of the explosive, each containing three ounces, were tamped down in the hole and connected with fuse. The explosion shook the ground and the air was filled with flying boulders. The result achieved would have acquired two pounds of gunpowdcr or one pound of dyna- mite, while only nine ounces of Extralite were used.
 The manufacture of the explosive will be commenced at once. The French Government is said to have paid one million francs for the right to use it.
