Notes on the Events OF the Event.
full Day.
On Saturday night the San Pedro
club had a meeting to endorse the
nOn-partisan ticket, and it looked fun
ny to see a club, founded to break the
ring, trying to endorse the thing it
originally proposed to break. After
much talk it adjourned to await the
call of the chair without any decisive
action.
The Reform club will meet tonight
and will give some potent reasons for
it's faith.
The Sunset Democratic club will
meet at Jonas garden to howl and
hoOU for the nOn-partisanS. This game
is rather too much of chestnut to be
effective.
Poor workingmen! The nOn-par-
tisans are out in card trying to show
that J. ID. Savers should be our next
congressman. Bah! A man who
kills the chief industry of Texas and
votes for free trade is not the friend
either of the workingman or the far
mer, and Beiknap, with all right
minded people, must be the popular
choice.
Sayers is very sorry just now, not
sorry for the injury he has done our
people, but sorry because Belknap is
walking over his district
The non-partisans are sick today,
because in spite of outward show it
knows that its ticket is knocked
higher than Gilroy's kite. That's
what's the matter with them.

Horrible BrutaIity-StarVed, Beaten.
TACOMA, w. t., November 5.-SiX-
teen sailors of the ship Hecla, which
arrived here yesterday, loaded with
wheat, for Great Britain. entered suit
in the district court against Captain
Snow of that vessel, for cruelty. They
allege that the Hecla started for Car
diff, Wales, with crew of Is men
After she had been out but a short
time Captain Snow began feeding his
men on rotten meat and potatoes,
which were not fit to eat, and both
Captain Snow and his mate shameful
ly abused the sailors. While
near Cape Horn, Capt. Snow attacked
the carpenter, breaking his jaw
and knocking out many teeth;
a few days later he nearly killed one
of the men when debilitated by poor
food, they were unable to work, and
were at times put in the hold, and
tied up for IS hours. One of the men
was tied to a stanchion four days
without food. During this time his
scant rations were placed within
sight, but out OF reach; when the
Hecla reached Acapulcho, the men
were i'll from bad treatment and in
sufficient food. They We're cast into a
dungeon and kept confined until the
vessel was ready to sail. The men APP
pealed to the United States consul al

a Fatal Jest.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Frank Day,
young Canadian, was stabbed and
killed at the corner of Clark and
Johnson streets at midnight, by an
unknown man who is still at large.
Day, with two friends, was on his way
to the Palt street depot. Just before
they reached jackson street, they
were met by a party of three, all
more or less intoxicated, as they
passed the strangers shouted hurrah
for Cleveland. Day turned around
and shouted back in a spirit
of fun, whats the matter
with Harrison?n The strangers
Immediately assaulted him and
several blows were struck. A moment
later one of the strangers plunged
dirk knife into Days breast, and Day
sank to the pavement with a groan.
The assassin and one of his cOmpan-
ions started off on run, but the other
remained standing on the spot over
come by the horror of the act. Days
friends seized and held him until an
officer came. He proved to be VIM. H.
Warder, an engineer in the govern
ment building. Warder pretended,
when questioned regarding the affair,
to be drunk, and declared that he
knew nothing about it. He even
asserted that he did not know
who the men were with him. De-
ceased was IS years old, unmarried,
and had been only six months in
this country. His people live at
Toronto.

Before Going to Sleep,

lie who would reap the greatest benefit
from sleep should also cultivate the habit
Of eschewing all worry and vexatious
ponderings for a considerable time before
retiring. The attainment of this end is
far easier than might at first be mag
ined; indeed il is largely n question Of
habit, and the individual who exerts
himself systematically will soon find that
he shall he able 10 divest the mind of
thought at the proper time very much as
he would take of a superfluous garment.
Where, as in certain neurotie and irri-
table persons, it is impossible to acquire
this habit by a mere fiat of the will, the
individual should seek by LAYING hold of
the law of substitution to drive forth the
depressing and irritating train of refec.
tons. And just here we find the true
function of amusement. Light reading,
light plays, light operas, light games,
light conversation and he presence of
friends, these are the things which serve
to exercise the specter of omnipresent
care.-Dr. j. Leonard Corning.

back parlor. Looking into the front
parlor through the folding doors she be,
held her husband in much too earnest
conversation with wv young ladies. One
of the young ladies seemed greatly in

chairs gradually drew closer and closer
together till il came to pass that the
watcher on the other site of the folding
doors observed her husbands arm steal
round the waist Of the young lady
This was more than the indignant wife
could stand, and she crcpt quietly behind

powerful was it that il knocked the
whole scene completely out. The

BIRDS LEARNING TO SING.
A Common but Erroneous Impression.
Several Interesting Cases

several Interesting Gases.
Most people probably imagine that
birds sing by instinct; that the song of
the robin is as natural to him as his red
breast, hat the blue bird is not more
liable TO change its note than its color;
and that, ~untaught the nightingale will
always sing the same beautiful song.
This common impression, however, is
Young birds win G sing
the song peculiar to their tribe If they
have never heard it, but II associated
with some other bird. will learn its sons
instead. A redstart once built It's nest
under the caves Of n house where a Gagged
chaffinch hung in a window underneath.
The redstart learned the chafiinch's song.
Another redstard vas noticed to repeat
the notes of a blackcap which had its
nest close by.
The winchat and wheatear have nat
urally but little variety Of notes, but will
become much better songsters If confined
with other birds, and the bullfinch can
be taught to whistle complete tunes, al
though its w natural notes are harsh
and insignificant On the other hand,
the nightingale in confinement will some
times exchange it, own beautiful song
for that of some other bird that il may
hear. The Hon. DANES Darlington says
that he saw a linnet which had been
taken from the nest when only two OF
three days old, and which, not having
any other sounds TO initiate, almost
learned to articulate, and could repeat
the words ''pretty boy" and some other
short sentences. He educated nesting
linnets under the three best singing larks
the skylark, woodlark and titlark-
every one of which, instead of the lin
nets song, adhered entirely to that Of
their respective instructors. When the
note Of the titlark was thoroughly fixed,
he hung the linnet which had learned il
in a room for three months with two
common linnets which were in full song
The educated linnet, however, never Dor
rowed any passage from the other lin
nets, but adhered steadfastly to that Of
the titlark which IL had learned.
At Knighton, in Radnorshire, he saw
a goldfnch which sung exactly like a
wren, and uttered no proper note of its
species. This bird had been taken from
the nest when il was two days old, and
was hang in a window opposite a small
garden, where it had, no doubt, heard
and learned the wren's song, having
never had the opportunity to learn that
of the goldfnch. Birds taken from the
nest two or three weeks old have already
learned the call notes of their species
These ard many similar facts go to prove
that birds do not sing by instinct. They
learn their songs from their parents. If
they have no opportunity Of hearing the
song peculiar TO their species, they never
sing it, but will learn any other instead,
Just as an American child taken to
France when a few weeks old would
never speak English if he never heard it,
but would learn to speak French. -Popu.
