Feathered Policemen.

The description given by The London
Globe of the cariamaS OF soriemas, To-
Gated in the eastern ayiary of the Zoolog-
ical gardens. will muse everybody
while it should not surprise any one
That there should be among birds a
species which is fitted to perform among
its kind the duties undertaken among
men by policemen is a fact for which all
ought to be prepared. Why should not
each variety of created things have in its
midst the same sort of functions and
functionaries, modified according to Cir
cumstances and habit? More than one
pictorial artist-as, fer instance, C. II.
Bennett in this country-has shown us
what marvellous r~esemblances birds and
animals can be made to bear and actually
do pear to man, and if humanity finds it
necessary to have policemen, why should
not the s'feathered tribes be similarly
impelled.
The cariama seems particularly well
fitted for the post of public guardian. He
perambulates his cage with all the regu-
larity and hauteur of his human proto-
type on his "beat," and if at intervals he
emlts piercing shriekS which seem I'M
called for, he only the more faithfully
carried out the analogy. This, no doubt,
is his way of blowing the whistle, and
when he does it in his cage it is probably
from instinct or from immemorial Gus
tom. He has already been acclimatized
in the poultry yard, where he faithfully
performs his duty as the preserver of
order. If two young cocks assault or
batter each other he steps in between
them and stops the combat 'by a series
of pecks divided impartially at the heads
of both"
Impartiality, of course, is an excellent
quality in a policeman, whether he be
bird or man; would there were more of
it. The origin of the cariama is, it seems,
lost in obscurity; but it is admittedly
ancient, and possibly he may be a lineal
descendant of the judge birds of ornitho-
logical antiquity.-Denver Republican

Getting Even,

Not long ago in the Peshawur district a
man went so very far to the bad as to shoot
Mullah. 1t might have been an accident,
or he mistook his man, or pure villany;
anyhow the Mullah died, and like many
another outlaw the murderer had to fly
over the border. First he tried Buneyr,
but the news had preceded him and he
was refused shelter. He then tried the
Swat Valley with no better success-the
country of the Akhund would have none
of him. Even the Afridis, small reverence
as they pay to spiritual advisers, would
have nothing to say to a ruffian whose
hands were died with the blood of a pious
man. Wearied at length of being hunted
from tribe to tribe he bethought himself
of repentance. "None of you will have
me-" he said; II can but be martyr;
will go and kill a Sahib."
So back he came to Peshawur canton
ment and walked down to the Mall to look
for victim. Not finding one handy he
turned off and went for cavalry sergeant
in difficulties with a troublesome horse, at
whom he took deliberate aim. AS luck
would have it the first bullet was stopped
by range finder the sergeant mad on him,
but before the latter could 60 for his assail-
ant the Pathan got another bullet through
the sergeant's helmet and made bolt for
it. A plucky native ran in, and the man
was ultimately secured, tried by the COM
missioner the same evening and. under
summary powers, hanged the next morn

vorite dish on the table he steps up to his

of human speech can do it asks to be
served, indicating by his eyes the dish he
refers to.

bow of the big head. Fetching and carry

His hat is quite out Of fashion.

The generous draughts Of thirsty man,
No meager. half way slipping.
A tramp, perhaps. or worse; who knowsf
At the roadside now he's sleeping
But, harki What terrible sound is that.
Loud screams and mad flames leaping.
A house on fire, with its dire results;
Weak women and babes in danger,
With water scarce and absent men
But where is the sleeping stranger?
A man stands there in the very place
OF the careless footsore creature;
But this one has courage to do and dare
Marked out in every feature.
Yet he is the same, this hero brave,
The shiftless seeming stranger;
He careth not for leaping flames.
He careth not for the danger.
