through the village that the birds
were going to take leave. Every one
turned out to view the start. Never
were storks before thus honored.
They put off in direct line, the
wounded one second. He could not
quite maintain the level of their flight.
He would certainly fall into the Sea
of Marmora. The commodore fol-
lowed them with his glass, and saw
the rear-guard at length come down
underneath the poor fellow, take him
on his back and bear him high into
the air for another flight. So they
disappeared.
"They will have about fifty miles
to fly on that line before they can
find rest and fodder" said the COM
modore, "but those gallant fellows
will do it. They will do it, or all

stork would give him a sudden push
and topple him off. He would then
use his wings to purpose, and the
parent birds would be filled with pride
and exultation. If the untried wings
show signs of failure in returning to
the nest, one of the parent birds
would come beneath him and lift him
with powerful wing to a height that
would make his return sure and easy,
Unhappily, one of the commodores
dogs, who knew better, seized one OF
the storks by the wing and injured it
so that it dragged, and of course the
bird could not fly. The commodore,
finding that the wing was only LAGER
ated, not broken, bound it up in
place, put the stork in large cage in
the night, but had it out to feed in
the daytime. Its companions stayed
by it in anxious sympathy all day,
and only when it was housed would
they return to their nest. 1t seemed
so much like human sympathy, that
Commodore Porter resolved that if
good feeding would save the wounded
bird, he should be ready for the flight
southwark when all the storks would
leave. The stork at length began to
use its wings for flying down, but it
was longer in getting able to rise even
six or eight feet, and nothing would
tempt it to regain its nest. 1t had
lost courage and confidence, and was
satisfied with its condition, and had
evidently form an attachment to the
commodore.
But now the case assumed another
aspect. A Gathering and knocking
and scraping was heard high up in the
heavens, and, behold, thousands of
storks were careering about, calling
out all the storks from river, brook
and seashore, from tree-top and chin
ney-top, to prepare for the southwark
flight. A large body swept down
low over San Stefano, and a deputa-
ton of four alighted to examine the
disabled companion. After a time
they arose into high air and made
their report, and all the storks went
home. Their temperance for their
final flight was expected in about
three or four days, when they would
gather in full force, and following one
solitary leader, they would take a
lofty fight for tropic fields.
Day after day, for two whole weeks,
the commodore waited for them, when
at length they came in gathering
tlocks, as far as the eye could reach,
probably from all Roumelia, Mace
donia, and, it may be, from the banks
of the Danube.
A large flock lowered low over the
wounded mate with a tremendous
gathering of their big red bills. A
few alighted, and after due examina-
ton and consultation, all departed
but two stalwart fellows who were
commissioned to remain and share
the fate of the wounded, They were
the "Christian commission" of the
storks. Then one stork led off in a
lofty, steady fight, with outstretched
neck, toward the south; two others
followed, then three, and 50 on, until
the base of the trianhle thus formed
was some hundreds of feet Then

Commodore Porter and His
StorkS.
From Golden Rule.
When | went to the East, in 1888,
Commodore Porter was our Minister
Resident at the Sublime Porte. He
was one of our old naval heroes. He
was residing at the time of my visit
at San Stefano, about ten miles west
of Constantinople, right on The shore
of the beautiful Sea of Marmora. 1t
was charming place for war-worn
veteran to enjoy the quiet evening of
life.
In all that region north of the Sea
of Marmora, extending beyond the
Balkan Mountains to the Danube, the
stork is a favorite bird. Along the
north of the Marmora, where there
are very few tall trees, the stork
builds its nest on the tops of Chin
neys, which, in the East, are always
covered, the smoke issuing from side
windows or openings. The nests are
very rude in appearance, about as
large as a two-bushel basket. Sticks
as large as your finger are skillfully
woven into them. They are made
soft and nice with moss and cotton
and wool, or whatever the skillful
bird thinks will make her parlor COM
Portable. The stork has two long
legs, but for some reason or other,
generally stands upon one, the other
drawn up among his feathers. l
think | have seen as many as fifty in
row on river bank, each one stand
ing on one leg. Any boy who should
see the sight would laugh. The very
long, fiat, red bill is often bent down
upon the neck, and you would think
the birds chief desire was to hide it's
awkward, disproportioned bill and one
of its two legs. When thus standing
in repose, it is about three feet high,
the chief part of the height being
leg and neck. 1t stalks over the field
with an awkward gait, its neck alert,
and its lightning stroke finishes the
race of any snake, lizard, toad, bug
or other vermin on the ground. From
kitchen refuse it selects what suits its
taste, and is bold in claiming it. 1t
has no voice. The strange CHATTER of
its broad, flat bill is indescribable. 1t
seems to play rough tunes to its mate.
1t is held sacred by all the people.
1t is sign of good luck to have a
stork rest on the chimney-top. Woe
to the boy who would throw a stone
at stork! The people would curse
his grandmother, and, perhaps, throw
stones at him.
Commodore Porter had stork'
nest on the chimney of his kitchen, a
building separate from the house and
connected by covered way. The
chimney was tall, round, like col
umn, and very picturesquely crowned
by this rough nest,
The commodore took great delight
in watching the social life of his
storks, especially when they came to
teach the youngsters to fly. The
young, awkward, long-legged thing
would stand on the rim of the nest
and flap his wings, but fear to launch
way, while the old storks would

A Story of the Great Duke.

1t may be of interest to some of
your readers to hear characteristic
story of the great duke, which was
told me by gentleman principally
concerned in the affair.
The Duke of Wellington at one pc
riod of his life was rather fond of tell
ing a certain pig sticking story, and
persons who knew of this weakness
used to lead the conversation so that
the great man might have an oppor-
tunity of relating his favorite anec-
dote. But at length he became suspi-
cious, and any allusion to the subject
made him extremely angry. About
this time-nearly siXtyyears ago,-the
duke was staying at Belvoir. One of
the visitors at the castle had never
heard anything about the pig sticking
adventure, and was easily persuaded
that the duke would be pleased if he
wero asked to tell lis famous story.
Accordingly one morning after break
fast in the long gallery, when seated
not far from tRe. duke the gentleman
ventured to tell his grace how much
he should like to hearIsome of his ex-
periences of Indian sport. AT first the
duke was inclined to be seriously Of
Tended, but looking round and discov-
ering from the faces Of the company
that the inquirer had been prompted,
and that the request vas made in per-
feet good faith, he quietly got up and,
drawing his arm through the gentle
mans, said: II shall be delighted TO
tell you all you wantto know, but let
us come to the end of the gallery,
where we can talk Quietly" A pleas
ant half hours conversation ensued,
and it was not till some hours later
that the intended victim learned what
a triumph he had achieved over the
practical jollers, and what quiet re-
buke had been administered to them.

The box is of cast iro,l, and similar
in general appearance to the one now
in use. 1t is divided into two com.
partments, all upper one for newSpa.

is removed by turning a key, which
causes the bottom of the box to drop,
depositing all the contents in the car,
rier's bag hung on a hook underneath.
The carrier does not handle the mail
at any time. When the box is un-
locked a bell rings that can be heard a
block, and an ingenious arrangement
of indicators designates the time of the
next collection.
The box is a sort of mute detective.
If the 3 o'clock indicator appears on
the box at 3 80 it is at once evident that
the carrier is not attending to business.
If that gentleman finds 8 80 indicator
when he visits the box at 3, it is evil
dent somebody has been attending to
it for him. The box, once opened in
any way by thief, must be opened
and shut seventy-four times, which
would not allow him to escape detec-
ton.

'larity can be promptly reported. The
letter slots on the sides are arranged
with a metal lip on the inside that pre-

other novel features, and the box is
altogether an ingenious and practical
contrivance. Chicago Tribune.
