Suspended the House Saloon.

WASHINGTON, May 2s.-Speaker Reed to-
day ordered the discontinuance of the sale
of intoxicating liquors in the house res
taurant. The order is temporary, to give
the speaker an opportunity to learn just

noticeable diminution in the patronage of
the house restaurant and largely increased
business at the senate restaurant.

The French Navy.

PARIS. May 2s.-The budget committee
to-day reached report of the condition of
the French navy. The report says the navy
is inferior to the navies of the dreibund

ment. 1t recommends a reduction of cred
its for provisions, which, it says, are far too
heavy, and suggests an increase of credits

Ostrichs in America.

81. Nicholas: There are certain old ira
ditions about the ostrich which, have
been told by the owner Of a California
ranch, are fabulous. He says that the
ostrich does not bury his head in the sand
and imagine he is unobserved by his enc
mics. On the contrary he is a very pug
nacious bird, and always ready for fight.
Nor does the female ostrich lay her eggs
in the sand for the sun to hatch them.
To do them justice, they are quite domes-
tic, and deserve better reputation. Nor
is the ostrich ever used for riding, as he
has an exceptionally weak back; any per-
son might break it with blow from an
ordinary cane.
HIS strength lies in his great breast and
his feet. He has one great claw and q
very small one, and with q terrible pre-
cision he can bring down the large CLAW
with a cruel force that will tear open any
thing not made Of sheet iron.
Savage birds at best, they are danger
ously 90 at breeding time. The twenty
two birds brought to our California ranch
trusted to their instinct and laid Their
eggs during the California winter, which
corresponded to the summer south Of ths
equator. 1t being the rainy season. thelI
nests were filed with water and the eggs
were chilled; 80 the first season Of their
American sojourn was failure.
The ostrich makes its nest by rolling in
the sand and scooping out hole some
six feet in diameter, and, excepting an
incubator house, the California ranch re,
quires no buildings for the use Of the
birds, though the land is divided of into
pens, fenced In, each about an acre in
extent, for the use Of the breeding birds
