Ths Blue-Jay.

The blackbird whistles in early spring
And the bob'linl1s' notes DER the meadows
ring.
The swallows twitter from the ived wall,
But the blue-jay comes in the fail.
The robin pipes when the sunlight shines
And the oriole sings in the tangled vines
In summer thicKets the cat-birds call,
But the blue-iay comes in the fall.
The wild canary likes the weather warm,
And the brown thrush chants after each
June storm.
When the green leaves turn they will
vanish ALL
But the blue-jay comes in the fall
These sun-nourished songsters, let them 60,
For they dare not face one flake of snow.
The bare trees herald the winters thrall,
But the blue-jay comes in the fall
And down in the woods heard his cry,
And his bright blue wings went flashing by,
December waits with an icy pail,
But the blue-jay comes in the fall.

How to Train a Horse.

Never play trick on horse to see
what he will do. l instantly dis
charged man because I found him
poking a stick at my mare in the box
stall "just to see her kick" says a
writer in the New York Ledger. Never
fool a horse. Give MIN what oats you
were shaking when you went to halter
bim in the paddock. Remember how
you dislike mere teasing. 1t maddens
you, yet you have Il moral sense and
know enough to overlook it. while the
horse has none and attributes your
teasing to malice pure and simple.
Do not let everybody and anybody
draw rein over your favorite There
are some people who can spoil a good
mouth in two hours drive. Some
nervous people will tell your horse
secrets in an hour that you cannot get
out of his mind in a month; they will
prate their fear-cry .Oh!' and in
short. let the horse know what you dc
not wish him to know namely, mans
weakness and Il horses strength.

''In the early days of the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe railroad, 'said arail-
road man to a Pittsburg Dispatch re-
porter, "stock was so frequently killed
on the road that Manager Clark found
it necessary to require the locomotive
engineers to make a note of whatever
they killed. The engineer had to fill
out form stating when, where and
what kind of an animal lad been killed,
and turn the report in to the superin-
tendent of stock claims. One day a
complaint from a farmer was received
by Manager Clark, in which the kill
ing of u valuable COW by the Santa Fe
engine was related. The letter was
referred to the stock claim department,
but no report from the engineer Of
the train in question could be found.
MIR. Clark sent for the engineer, an old
employe of the road named John Nor
ton and asked him why he had not re-
ported the collision with the cow

ONLY BOYS KNOW
Boys Can Have Lots Of Fun Who're Other, Nov.
Look for II.

Nnyn
| Look for II.
Half q dozen boys out, in the woods
have more fun than the same .numher
of mon on board the finest sailing
boat. 1t is because boys know whore
the most fun can be found, and that
they find it is assured, says Kellar in
Arkansaw Traveller. They have fshed
up the little stream that goes running
through the shady woods until they
have finally struck u spot where no
fish were ever caught; but just beyond,
little ways, is the grandest frog hole
known to the boys, and if they don't
know it no one else need bother 10
| hunt it up. .
The strings Of fish are left dangling
in the water, and frogging begins.
The great green chaps pop their heads
out of the quiet water from tho grass
that crowds the pool. Now for it.
"Who's got anything red?" Ono
chap turns up the cotton band of q
straw hat Good. 1t is soon torn
into strips, and the strips are knotted
to the tish-line u few inches above the
hooks. Then the sport begins. Frogs
are like bulls; there is something
about red that makes them mad.
The rcd is dangled above their
heads. They seem to get more
and moro mad; finally they
jump for the red flag, and presto! !!
The sharp hook catches them. A
quick stab of sharp knife through
the head soon puts poor frog out of
his misery. The hind legs of our frog
only are eaten, though the boys in
France prepare the whole frog after
cutting off the head. Every boy
knows that there is a thin line drawn
around a frogs waist -band-and every
boy cuts the legs off right there and
nowhere else. The thin skin is easilv
slipped otf-and there you have one of
the choicest dainties for hungry boys
Some boys would not eat frogs legs
for good sum of money; but that is
because they haven't learned what a
delicious mOrsel it is. The meat is
white and sweet, and better than the
tenderest chicken. After a sufficient
number of frogs: legs are gathered, a
nice little fire is built against a big
stone. Some green willow rods are
cut, the legs are strung. upon the rods
and the cooking begins. The legs
cook readily; they are laid upon fiat
stones. and one boy produces d pep
per can, another Il salt-box, and then.
if any man who has eaten frogs in ex-
pensive restaurants can enjoy his re-
past better than the boys out there in
the woods, I'd like to know it. This
is only one of the many things OF
genuine fun that only boys know, and
that they never let slip chance for
frogs legs, I need not affirm stoutly.

Tha St Anthony Stone.

In the Church of St. John, at Pisa,
Italy, there is a piece of stone heavily
marked with red. blue and yellow
spar, the lines representing an old
man with heavy white beard with a
bell in his hand seated beside small
stream. TO the worshipers at St.
Johns it is known as the ST. Anthony
stone, the picture upon it being per-
feet likeness of that saint, even to the
minor details of tunic and bell.

Streat Car Courtesy.

A sallow-faced woman, with d wealth
of freckles on her long nose, entered
an Austin street car. There were
eight or ten well-dressed gentlemen in
the car, but none Of them showed any
inclination to give her a seat. After
she waited reasonable time she re-
marked with asperity:
If any of you galoots air waiten
for me to squat in your laps, you are a
sucked in crowd. for want you to un-
derstand l am lady from the ground
up"
A dread that she was not in earnest
about not sitting in their laps caused
six of the gentlemen to leave the car.

FREE CHICKEN FOR DINNER.
Mr.. Dash Adopts Vigorous Measures, Much t,
His Own Chayrin.

his own ChhKrtn.
There is gentleman in NorthSeattle,
Mr.. Blank, who keeps a number of
hens, which, in days gone by, have
managed to make their escape from
the hen-pen and have worried a neigh
DOR Mr.. Dash, very badly. Mr.. Dash
keeps hens, too, but he has always
managed, as he supposed. to keep them
securely inside the picket fence which
marks the boundary of their home.
One day recently Mr.. Dash sent q
note to Mr. Blank to the effect that if
ne did not keep his hens at home he
would be compelled to shoot them.
Mr.. Blank examined his hen-pen care
fully and counted his chickens, saws
the Seattle Press. They were all at
home and he couls ls&e no possible way
Tor them to escal He at once sat
down and wrote h neighbor a polite
note, saying that was sorry that his
hens proved such In annoyance, and
II they troubled him he should surely
not object to their being shot, "Just
shoot them" " wrote Blank, land throw
them over the fence into my yard and
l will take care of them"
The next evening when Mr.. Blank
came nome he found a dead chicken
lying in his front yard, with half a
pound of shot in it. He took it up,
dressed it and the next day had the
pleasure of eating it.
The next day there were two, and
the next day three. He had fried
chicken for breakfast, cold chicken
for luncheon, roast chicken for dinner
and spring chicken to sell, but still
the supply kept up, while, strange tc
say, his chickens did not seem to de-
crease in numbers.
One day Mr. Blank was standing
out in his front yard, when Mr.. Dash
came along, with d very puzzled ex.
preston on his face.
''Say, Blank" exclaimed he, chow
many of your chickens have killed?'
''You have not killed anv" was the
reply.
"W hat do you mean?' exclaimed
the astonished Dash.
"Why look at your hen-pen ano
see
Dash made rush for the fowl yari
to size up the situation. Instead O
fifty sleek looking hens that the yard
had contained a month before scarcely
twenty remained. while small hole
in the corner of the pen told the res
OF the story to the infuriated Dash.
''To Think" exclaimed Dash, 'tha
l should keep that doggasted. measl,
Blank in chickens for month, Will,
my own family was regaling them
selves on pork and beans! Bah! it,
too bad!'

A WILL CONTEST.
The Testament of the Late j. r. Watson
in Court.

The Testament of the Late j. II. Watson
in Court.
Mrs. Ethel NJ. Ellery, the only child OF the
late j. r. Watson, has filed contesting pa
pers in the Probate Department Of the Su-
pcrior Court, praying that the order admit
ting her fathers alleged will to probate
be revoked. vacated and set aside, that the
will be denied probate and that she recover
her costs of court herein.
AS grounds of contest Mrs. Ellery alleges
that the paper filed and claimed - be the
last will and testament of her father was not
his last will or testament, because the same
was not signed or subscribed to, or executed
or witnessed at all, or In the manner pre-
scribed by law, as she is informed and be-
lieves.
1t is also alleged that at the time of the
execution of said will the deeedent was not
competent to make last will or testament
by reason of his weakness, sickness and in
trinity of body and mind; that his mental
condition at said tine was such that he was
unable to make will or to transact any
business whatever; that at the date of said
alleged will the SAID decedent was sick and
Of weak and iDfirm body and mind, suffering
under painful disease, which caused his
death; and in his last illness that his mental
condition was then unsound, and he was
easily influenced AMI peculiarly susceptible
to kindness and to the kindness of those who
spoke to him and were with him, all Of
which was well known to the said Martha NJ.
Watson, his wife. The latter resided alone
with him. and by undue influence, promise
and persuasion, and working upon dece-
dents weak and unsound mind, the said
Martha NJ. Watson, SO the complaint reads,
procured the decedent to make the said
alleged will, and decedent would not have
made the same but for the undue influence
of the said Martha NJ. Watson. The alleged
will does not and did not express the real In
tentions of said decedent or the disposition
he desired to make Of his estate, but eX-
pressed only the wishes, views and desires
Of the said Martha NJ. Watson, and it is not
his will.
The estate left by the deceased has been
appraised to be worth S115,043.-Sacra-
mento Bee, Oct. 9th.
