The Parrot and the Bat.

On sultry evening last week bat
few into the sitting room of house
at Scranton, Pa, and dashed against
the parrots cage. 1t struck the cage
with force enough to drive it between
the wires, and it began to creep
around the bottom of the cage and
flap its injured wings. The parrot was
asleep when the bat few in, but it got
awake In an instant, and it screeched
and screamed and yelled "Oh nv" so
many times that the lady of the house
ran in from the piazza to see what the
trouble was with the family pet. The
moment she entered the room the par
rot told the huttering little creature
to get out in a very shrill tone, re-
peating the command a number of
times. The bat didn't get out, al
though it tried very hard to do so,
and the parrot got mad, bristled up
and dived from its perch at the puny
intruder. For few seconds the par
rot had such a lively tussle in the
bottom of the cage that it upset every
thing and scattered seeds all around
the room, and then it hoped back to
its perch and began to scratch its
throat with its right foot as though it
had been bitten by the bat.
"GraciousI how that hurtl'' the par
rot yelled, after it had stopped scratch
ing, and smoothed out its wings and
feathers, the bat still wabbling about
and trying to find place to crawl out.
It couldn't find one, and the parrot
sang out: ''Pn fix itr and pitched at
the bat again. The little thing squeak
ed and tried to defend itself when the
parrot tackled it, but the ugly bird
used both claws and bill, and it soon
had the bats wings torn into strips
Then it gave the bat pinch on the
neck, shook it up and down, dropped
it suddenly and hoped to the top of
the cage and shrieked. looking down
at the lying little creature. When the /,
parrot saw the bat was dead, it looked
at its mistress, jumped from its perch
TO its ring and back again, laughed,
and yelled out;
What is it, mother9"
The value of the parrot had doubled
in the estimation of its owner since it
killed the bat.-Philadelphia North

VALUE OF THE DOG IN WAR.
Some of the Uses to Which Our Canine
Friends Are Being Trained.

Some of the Uses to Which Our Canine
Friends Are Being Trained.
Veterinary Surgeon Bennett in bis
lecture at the United States institute,
told the interesting and strange story
of the war dog from Roman DAYS
downward Coming to Christian times
we are reminded of the war dog used
by the Spaniards In America; BY the
Earl of Essex in Ireland during the re-
bellion; by the English in the defense
of Tangiers, when dogs saved the
guards from a great ambush of Moors;
of the famous French dog Mustache,
who detected surprise the first night
before Alexandria, who fought at Ma
rengo, saved the standard of his regi-
ment before Austerlitz, and was deco
rated on the battlefield. Then the lee
turer recalled how, after the famous
campaign of Gen Skobeloff in Asia
Minor, the Russians decided to instruct
dogs as sentinels, and how finally the
Germans took up the question in 1885
and developed ituntil now dog can
carry back a message from outposts
more quickly than the best mounted
uhlans. There are at least five dis
tinct purposes for which trained dogs
can be used in war:
As auxiliary sentinels to the outposts and
sentries and to the advanced. rear and fank
guards In general ~
As scouts, on the march. on reconnaissance,
and patrol duties
g As dispatch bearers on the march, In camp,
In action etc
L As auxiliary ammunition carriers on the
march and In action
s Assearchers for the wounded and killed after
an engagement
Coming to the best kind of dogs for
training, the lecturer had good word
of course to say for the shepherd dog,
the retrieverand the spaniel, and for the
bloodhound as the dog par excellence
for tracking, for following up the enc
my into the mountains, through jun
gle and forest, and for running down,
dakoits and other marauders.
And since the bloodhound scent is
SO acute he would require neither to
hear nor see to give warning of the
of the foe at night or in
thick covert. In discussion among
some experts and distinguished and
doggy" general officers following
the lecture, it was pointed out
that the bloodhound, in sentry
work or on night marches, could
give warning by his nose alone of
the approach of strange bodies at
a distance of about 300 yards,
under favorable conditions of wind,
and that the bloodhound's steadfast-
ness by night and day in following up
human scent is such that although
crossed by deer and other game he
does not leave the leading scent.
By way of illustrating the value of
the war dog in carrying ammunition
during action to the front, trained
retriever was shown girdled with his
leather saddle bags capable of carry
ing eighty rounds of the new rife car
ridge. Altogether the dog appeared
20 find considerable favor among the
audience gathered at Whitehall place,
md the general opinion seemed to pre-
vail that if he is ever lucky enough to
ind Saicial recognition of the war of
ice he is destined to play useful part
n the game of our little wars.-Pall

Gum chewing, according 10 recent
reports, is the prevailing mania in
Albion, Neb. The disgusting habit
has become SO general that parents
and preachers inyeigh against it, but
to no effect. During services in
church last Sunday the dominic deli
cately insinuated that the congrega-
ton looked like a corral Of munching
cattle. so industriously did the jaws
wag. While the preacher was round
ing an eloquent peroration on the
beauties of the echoless shore, q
mighty yell rent the rafters. It came
from the paralyzed jaw of Mr.. Cato,
who had been suddenly smitten with
lead collie, caused by chewing adul-
terated gum. Cato was taken home
and the congregation dismissed. Next
lay a ton of secondhand gum was
plucked from the pews and dumped
nto the raging Beaver.

Diamonds Now and Then
From tie London Truth.

A DAY or two ago ! was eading in con-
temporary series of interviews with per-
sons engaged in the diamond trade. Twenty
years ago diamonds were three times their
present value. The discovery of the South
African mines and the competition between
the mines brought down the price Anal
gamation has put it above 100 per cent. in
the last twelve months. The rough estimate
is that during the last few years the output
Of diamonds has been 100000 carats per
annum, and that $4,000, 900 have been
spent per annum in acquiring these
100000 carets when converted by cutting
into salabe articles These 4, 900, 900 carats
of rough diamonds only produced 1,600, 900
carats of cut diamonds. and it cost los. per
carat to cut them. The South African
mines being now amalgamated, the output
is reduced to one-half, i. E., 1000, 900 carats,
aud it is estimated that this will still pro-
duce $4,000,000, because this is taken as a
fixed amount which, no matter what the
price of diamonds may be, will annually be
spent on these gems. Whether this will be
the case or not is the in the problem.

1t reads like passage from comic opera

of the items of expenditure on this occa-

| And then in November came the crown

the emperor OF Austria, and
| the Crown Prince of Prussa were the most

Of less distinguished persons, who were

by this costly outlay he was building up an
absolutely independent throne. If so, it
must have been erievous disappointment
when he had to sell to the porto his new
iron-clads, especially precious symbols Of
independent power. Year after year things
went on, the financial situation growing
steadily worse and worse. The great Dis
raeli coup of purchasing the khedive's canal
shares set him on his legs for a time, but
the end was approaching. In 1879, after
reign of sixteen years, the final blow was
delivered. England and Francs agreed to
demand his resignation. he was not I'M
equal to the situation. He made very
good terms for himself, selected his chief
favorites from his harem, put their iewGlry
into the most portable shape, stripped his
palace of everything that was valuable-the
plate was estimated at $500, 0O0-and then
received the trade that appointed Tewfik his
successor with pnilosophic resignation.
Raising sik's hand t. his lips. he said:
4 salute my Effendina.' He then kissed him
on both cheeks, and, merely adding the
bare expression of G hops that he would be
more fortunate than his father had been,
with slight obeisance retired into the ad-
joining harem." Four days afterward,
June 30, he left Egypt, it may now be said
