The people Of New Hampshire
have some very old fashioned idoas.
Que of them is that a man, living in
a community which provides tree
day and night schools, who cart
read and write and won't take the
trouble to learn, doesn't deserte to
enjoy the privileges ola citizen. The
constitutional convention assembled
at Concord has, in pursuance Of this
idea, adopted an snendmeot to tho
effect that no person shall hereafter
be eligible to citizenship who eau
not read the Constitution in the
English language aud write his
name. If he remains ignorant II is
his own fault, and be must take the
consequences of it. What an atten.
uating effect upon the poll list such
a constitutional amendment would
have in the cities of New York and

A Texas Song bird That Sob,.

The Taylor County News is our
authority for the following descrip.
ton of the house wren: "A stranger
in the little cities of southwestern
Texas is often awakened at early
dawn by the beautiful but sorrowful
song Of the house or sobbing wren.
If the stranger has been long away
from home and frie ends, and is par.
ticularly sensitive to Impressions of
an external nature, he never for.
gets the peculiar melancholy note
of this tiny songster. It begins in
a high, clear key, like the tinkIing
of silver bells, and descending
gradually from one sweet chime to
another, sweeter, it suddenly falters,
breaks off and sobs like a child
the song dying away iii q gasp.
The listener is touched with sym.
pathetic emotion, and many find it
exceedingly difficult to suppress the
uncomfortable feeling that one of
the little ones in his own family
circle-far, far away, perhaps--is
weeping and sobbing for his return.
This mournful song is heard only
in twilight Of dawn, and is repeated
only few times. After which, the
singer, with his plump, brown
breast, thickly speckled with threads
Of black, retires through some
crevice in the housetop, and is but
rarely seen in the day."

A Monument to the Newsboys.

Mrs. Clara A. Helm, q wealthy
lady of New York city, of artistic
taste, has in view the presentation
of handsnome drinking fountain
to the city of her residence. Mrs.
Helm has had considerable expert.
ence in modelling, having been a
pupil Of the well known. sculptor,
I1aunt Thompson. Her. idea of the
fountain is that it should be dedica.
ted to the newsboys of New York
city, and should have a place on the
borders Of City Hall park, in the
immediate neighborhood Of the great
army of newsboys. A rough COPY
of the design, which Mrs. Helm has,
in her mind been, produced. It
represent a newsboy, with his pa.
pers under his arm, leaning naturally
against water plug. The figure
is to be in bronze and the base in
rough granite. The spout of the
fountain representsa printer'scompos.
ing stick, and the whole will make
a very appropriate statue for Print.
ing House square. Mrs. Helm will
design and model the figure, and
have it cast in the United State if
possible. She will perform most of
the work in Europe, where she in.
tends to 60 shortly. Mrs. Helm
was born in Cincinnati. She has
studied in Dana's and Bougereau's
studios in Paris. So far, her work
has been confined to private persons.
This fountain will be her first
public work.
