A Pet Owl.

My own bird is at liberty. This he
uses to the very best of his ability,
making the third member of our small
house. He is by no means the least
important, for he claims and receives
the greatest attention at meal times.
He steps from his perch on to the
hand, sits on the place appointed for
him, and chatters all the time it is in
progress. Sometimes, by way of
change, he will run about inspecting
all things; he is very swift of foot and
most inqusitive. Very affectionate,
too; he shows that plainly. He is
about more in the daytime than in the
evening or night, and he will sit in the
full light of the sun. All through the
hot summer of 1887 he has done so as q
matter of choice.
His food consists of mice of all kinds,
birds, of the finch tribe, old and young.
Starlings, blackbirds, and thrushes he
Will not eat, nor insects such as Charters
and others of similar kind; he will
not even look at them. 1t is not al.
ways possible to procure the birds and
mice for him; then he will content
himself with tender, lean beef, quite
fresh pork. He seldom drinks water,
and never uses it for the purpose Of
washing, preferring to roll and scratch
about in lump of drift sand like
domestic fowl. In fine feather he now
is, and he keeps himself beautifully
clean! His legs are long, and he uses
his toes and claws with the dexterity
of a monkey; in fact, when at his little
games he is more like monkey than
an owl.
His conversation, kept up continu.
ally, is a Groom and chatter, and when
in high glee he will puff the feathers
of his throat out and look intently at
me with his bright yellow eyes and
treat us with a solo sounding like the
gobble of some unfortunate turkey. II
] ask him as particular favor to
change that tune, he will give sue
cession of shrill banks like a terrier.
He roars like a tiger when his dignity
is ruffied, and squeaks like pig. This
does not occur very often, and when it
does the fault is my own. 1t generally
happens when he is introduced to
strangers, which he hates. AS a rule
he is most amiable. If | wanted to
cure man of melancholy and never
smiling grief l would present him with
little owl, the Punchineilo of his

Something New in Bracelets.

The Shakespeare bangle bracelet is
the largest caprice of fashion. 1t has
one value that may commend it as an
educator-its motto. The average
girl does not care much about Shaks-
peare. She could not quote a line
from any of his plays if her life were
at stake. Her bangle bracelet will act
as pony" and she will literally
have the aphorisms of Shakespeare at
her finger ends. The bangles are in
expensive bands of silver the width of
a dimes rim, and on the edge the text
is engraved in letters of small size,
with the name of the play and num-
Der of the act. A set of nine or ten
will furnish entertainment for the
evening. The texts runs as follows:
'Twixt such friends as we few words
suffice"
"Win her with gifts if she respect
not words"
yet my good will is great, though
the gift small"
There's divinity that shapes our
ends, rough hew them how we will"
dumb jewels in their silent kind
more than quick words do move"
ut is twice blessed; it blesseth him
that gives and him that takes"
Your silence most offends me and
to be merry best becomes YOU"
ITO the noble mind rich gifts wax
poor when givers prove unkind."
I'VE will have rings and things and
fine array. "-DetrOtt Free Press.

The Graphophone.

The graphopone, which is a sort OF
monograph, is coming
into practical use in the offices of few
stenographers in this country. The
man who takes the notes, instead Of
debating to the typewriters. sits down
and talks into the machine, and the
cylinder on which his remarks are re-
corded is then turned over to the type
writer, who sticks a tube attached to
the machine into each ear, and work
ing the roller by treadle as she
would sewing machine, has whatever
is there talked off to her as rapidly or
slowly as she can take it down. In
practice it is said that a stenographer
can dictate to the machine in an hour
as much as a rapid typewriter can
transcribe in three or four hours. The
time thus saved is so much clear gain
for the stenographer, and in case
where copy is needed in hurry the
work can be done by the employment
of enough typewriters in third to
quarter of the time that would be
necessary if the stenographer had to
dictate his notes to single type
writer. The graphophone and the
photograph are controlled by the same
company, which refuses to sell out
right. and which charges such a high
price for the rental of the instruments
that stenographers who have not a
large business hesitate to try the ma
chimes. Ysr6 San.

A Fish with a Screw-Propeller Tail.

The strangest creature ever seen in
these waters was captured in the Del
aware river at Burlington recently by
Charles Wooden and Charles Adams,
while they were fishing for shad. 1t
is about six feet long. with a large
head shaped like a bulldog and an
immense mouth furnished with two
rows of sharp teeth. The head is at
tached to the body by long, sinuous
neck, and the small and deep-sunken
eyes are protected by long lashes.
The body, which gradually tapers to
the tail, is covered by a short, fine
fur, and two short, imperfectly formed
legs, with webbed feet like those of
duck, are attached just below the
neck. The tail is peculiarly formed,
having four blades exactly like the
screws of propeller. The strange
creature was captured with difficulty.
1t fought hard, and uttering a noise
that was half hiss, half bark, it seized
an Oar in its mouth and crunched it to
splinters. A strange odor resem milling
musk was emitted. Repeated blows
of Ratchet disabled the animal and
enabled its capture. -PhtLadeLphia Bee

Bird and Snake.

The secretary-bird of South Africa
feeds upon rats, mice, lizards, and
even insects, but it is especially fond
of snakes. So valuable are its services
that the white settlers levy heavy
fine on anyone who kills one of these
birds. Its name, Secretary, was sug-
gested by the fact that the large feath-
ers projecting from the apex of its
head suggest clerk or secretary,
with several quill pens stuck behind
his ears.
1t is about four feet in height, and
it's hawk-like bill is formidable weap-
on, capable of splitting the head of a
large snake at a single blow. AS
snakes do not willingly submit to the
operation, long and exciting fights Of
ten takes place before the bird cleaves
it's opponents head. Parker Gilmore
saw one of these contests, and de-
scribes it in his Hunters Arcadia.
While stalking springbok he discov-
cred secretary bird fighting with a
snake seven or eight feet long, called
by the Beers .'ringkaal," from the
white ring or stripe round its neck. 1t
is an active serpent. endowed with the
PoNCl Va LIS fOhoLAA oAA AONo ~
more.
For several minutes the activity of
the belligerents displayed itself in
feints and blows. The bird then with
drew and uttered q prolonged harsh
note. In a moment it was joined by
another secretary bird. Both birds
then attacked the snake. which, being
unable to face both ways at the same
time. received frequent blows from it's
assailants' strong wings.
One blow stupefied the snake. In
stantly one bird seized the serpent near
the neck and the other further back,
and bore it, wriggling, struggling,
aloft a hundred yards and then drop
ped it. With closed wings the birds
descended so rapidly as to reach the
ground as soon as the snake. Quick
as thought bird struck the serpent
blow upon the head which killed it.
AS is generally the case, the allies,
having conquered, began disputing as
to the booty. The dispute led to a
fight, during which the hunter, who
wanted the snake as a specimen, slip
ped in and took the booty. He con-
veyed the ringkaal to his wagon, where
it continued to distil clear poison for
an -PhiLddelphi1 Times.

The Codes Decadence in Kentucky.

An indignant citizen of Lexington
went TO the Transcript office, abused
the local editor, Mr.. Moore, and struck
him in the face, says the Louisville
Courier-Jourpal The latter being a
stronger man than his assailant, SIM
ply caught the angry individual by the
wrists and held him till he cooled
down. The next day the news paper
man wrote personal statement about
the affair, saying:
Il did what for years | have tried
to school myself to do if the occasion
ever offered. l would not have the
memory of having struck that man,
and thus have admitted the futility of
the argument of my whole life for
very considerable amount of money,
and the happiness of conscience that
| believe | would enjoy for having
done as ] have is all that | have hoped
for"
All this is in curious contrast to the
action which the old code or the I'M
written understanding which has pre-
vailed among men of spirit in this
state so long would have dictated. Has
public sentiment reached the point
where Mr.. Moore's conduct will be
applauded and held as an equally high
proof of courage as if he had thrashed
| the man who attacked him? One
thing is sure: Kentucky ideas on this
/ subject are undergoing a change.

Not Afraid of q Bear.

As a farmer from West Hurley was
driving with his wife on the outskirts
of this city yesterday he came upon q
Turk leading a tame bear, says a
Kingston dispatch to the New York
Sun. The farmer, wishing to have his
wife see the bear dance, said he
would give 5 cents to the master OF
the bear if he would make it
dance. After the dirty Turk got the
money he told the farmer that the
terpischorean performance would not
begin until another cents was placed
in his hand. This made the farmer
angry, and he said:
"If you don't make that bar dance
I'll make you dance and the bar too"
The owner of bruin made no move
until the farmer got off his wagon to
carry his threat into execution. when
he put his hand to his pocket as it to
draw a revolver. Then the farmer
sslet out with his right" and sent the
bear-owner sprawling in the gutter.
AS soon as the Turk could get up he
took the muzzle off the bear, and in an
unknown tongue, told bruin to Ego
for" the farmer. The bear, thus en-
couraged, event for" the farmer, who
soon made his fingers almost meet
around the BEARS windpipe. When
the farmer saw fit to let go the bear
sneaked up to his master coughing
and splitting blood, and its master be-
gan to make tracks from the spot. All
this time the farmers wife sat still In
the wagon, simply saying:
james, / wish you wouldn't be so
foolish"
81 can't help it, Marier," said the
farmer; 81 wasn't brought up in the
woods to be scarf by OWLS"
