Why the Parrot is So Clever.

In India the jays and crows come
together from many miles round to
spend the night in company with the
parrots in the bamboo thickets. When
the parrots start hunting they display
the most wonderful intelligence, pru-
dence aud capacity of coping with cir
cumstances. Take, for instance, a
band Of white cacadoos in Aus
tralia. Before starting to plumber "a
corn-feld, they first send out a recon
noitering party, which occupies the
highest trees in the vicinity of the
field, while other scouts perch upon the
intermediate trees betwee. the field and
the forest and transmit the signals. If
the report runs " All right" score of
cacadoos will separate from the bulk of
the band, take flight in the air and then
fly toward the trees nearest to the field.
They also will scrutinize the neighbor-
hood for long while, and only then
will they give the signal for general
advance, after which the whole band
starts at once and plumbers the field
in no time. The Australian settlers
have the greatest difficulties in be-
quilting the prudence of the parrots, but
IL man, WIN an us dIt anu weapons,
has succeeded in killing some of them
the cacadoos become so prudent and
watchful that they henceforth battle all
stratagems. There can be no doubt
that it is the practice of life in society
which enables the parrots to attain that
very high level of almost human in
telligence and almost human feelings
which we know in them.-Prmce

Lessons for Thanksgiving Day.

Never since Washington saluted the
first congress have there been so many
total abstainers and so few druukards
in that body as there are now. For
the first time it is highly respectable
and rather fashionable to say, g don't
drink" Probably a aiority of both
houses do take drink occasionally, at
least of beer, but only two or three
members of the senate and half dozen
members of the house are conspicuous
as hard drinkers. Half a century ago
all the members drank and half of them
were occasionally drunk. Maudlin
scenes were common on the floor: now
they are very rare. 1t is in
regard to gambling that there has heen
the greatest revolution among congress
men within the memory of such vet
Grams as Banks, Morrill,, Buckalew
and Edmunds. Forty years ago, even
less than that, there were gambling sa-
looms on every block from the capitol to
the White House, and on the five blocks
between the National Hotel and the
capitol were something like a dozen
faro banks. In October, 1870, just
twenty years ago, Joe Halls bank was
broken up and closed by the marshal,
and Hall went steadily down the gamut
of dissipation and died pauper. 1t was
the last of our great gambling saloons,
and there is now no faro bank or rou-
lette table in Washington-not one pub
lie gambling place of any sort. There
is still some betting, of course, for
there is no incident so insignificant
that men can not gamble over it.-Cor.

If YOU hous is on fire you put water
on the bun in timbers, not on the
smoke. And If you have catarrh you
should attack the disease in the blood,
not in your nose. Remove the impure
cause, and the local effect subsidies.
To do this, take Hoods SArsaparilla,
the great blood purifier, which radically
and permanently cures catarrh. 1t also
strengthens the nerves. Be sure to get
only Hoods Sarsaparila.

The annual statement of tho Union
Pacific system shows that while the
increase OF gross earnings during the
year 1889 over 1888 was only s74,.
S59, the increase during the six
months ending June of the present
year over the same period of 1890
was s3.295,O27.
The surplus earnings OF all lines,
operated and leased, during the frs,
six months OF this year were $6,O51,.
434, being an increase of $222,O48
over the same time last year. The
number of miles operated was 8O34,
against 7849 the same time last wear,
and the expense of operating was
t14,66l, 800, against $l1,591, 52I IN
1889. an increase of S3,O72,978.
Taxes not included.
Tho Oregon Short Line and Utah
Northern railway shows an increase
in earnings, but its surplus earnings
are reduced from $l.2O4, 45O for the
SIX months ended June 30, 1889, to
$1,129,982 for the same period this
year. The Oregon Railway and
Navigation Company shows falling
of in gross earnings, they being re-.
cuced from $l,967, 1OS to u ,S66, 1854
for the same period this year, while
the expense of operating was increa-
sed to the amount of *427,534. This
IS probably largely owing to the un.
precedently heavy fall of last
winter.

The Demand for Mines.

We believe, says the Eureka Sen.
tineI. there is going to be q good de-.
mand for good silver mines in the
near future. We have advices from
New York and Boston which seem to
point strongly that way. Eastern
capitalists are tired Of real estate and
real estate booms. They are also
tired of loaning on farm mortgages.
Millions of New England money has
been invested in Kansas and other
agricultural States on real estate Sc
curities. On most OF this money not
. dollar OF interest has been paid for
three years. Chicago grain market
and the New York cotton and rail
road exchanges are considered too
risky BY the general run of conser-
vative investors. What other field,
then, is left except mining? With
prudence, mining may be as safely
followed as any other line of business.
It is the most fascinating pursuit in
the world. II awakens hopes and
possibilities not realized in any other
industry under the sun. 1t is the
most independent occupation on earth.
A man with a good mine never has
to drum for business. 1t is he who is
drummed by the tradespeople for his
business. Personally we would
rather have Il good mine than any
lumber of ranches in any State in the
Union. A mine is a clean cut pro-
position that yields up the hard cash,
without trouble with books. accounts,
time notes and slow collections. 1t is
the business, over and above al other
branches. The great wonder is that
more men of ample means do not oc-
cupy themselves in the hig hest type
Of industry.
The chief reason why they do not
grows out of the fact, doubtless, that
they do not understand it. 1t is a
job and long job to convert Eastern
capitalists into the belief that silver
mine lisa good thing to have. The
closing down Of other avenues of pro-
titable employment for their money
will bring them around to the point
Of investigating for themselves SOON
or than anything else; and when once
their attention is arrested they will
not be long IN putting in their money.
This is the basis of our best hope for
money with which to develop our
long-neglect-d mineral resources. |
There are good mines and good pros.
poets. A prospect is not mine, bu:
the prospect must always precede the
mine Good mines are scarce and
hard to find. They are worth good
money found. Promising prospects
are plentiful. Here is the place 70
draw the line. Too many mining
operators palm off mere prospects on
the unwary as established mines.
This has been the vice of the mining
business all through the West. 1t
has Disguised and repealed capital.
Honesty should be the rule in every.
hing. 1t applies TO mines and min.
ing as to every thing else in life.
1t you have Only prospect, say it is
= prospect and sell it as a prospect
md nothing more. Then no one will
be deceived. The business of enlist
ng capital for mining is tedious I'M
iertaking and full of disappo,ntmen,s,
'ut we believe it is going to get east
sr right along until we have renewed :
'ct'vity all though the mining regions \

Chalk Talks.

At Convention Hall, last night, Frank
Beard, the well-known cartoonist, de-
lighted an audience of six or seven hun
bred people, with his familiar sketches
and cartoons. The speaker has good,
plain voice, which he often used with
dramatic effect in his explanatory re-
marks about the various cartoons, which,
like his words, were teeming with ridicuie
and sarcasm. The delineations were
rapid and graceful, flowing with remark
able ease under the skillful manipulation
of his fingers.
The speaker scored considerable APP
plause in demonstrating his assertion that
the comic, artist or cartoonist, has to en-
ploy more ingenuity, originality and
ideality than the recognized legitimate
master. At the speakers request Captain
Macky volunteered to place five points on
the canvas to represent the eXtremities OF
the hands, feet and head, naming the
point which should mark the extremity Of
the head. The cartoonist then drew his
figure, which proved to be the
genial Captain as he comes in contact
with one of his angry bulls and is cast
sky high. The speaker, however, called
it Moses among the bull rushes. With the
exception of some confusion in ushe ring
everything run smoothly, making the lee
ture complete success.
The next lecture of the series is Col.
Bill Nye who speaks some time next
month.
