Resurrected by Hot Water.

A woman who is passionate lover Of
flowers, and. being city bred, regards
them as luxury, says that after wearing
roses an entire evening she Is enabled to
bring them to life again by hot water
bath. When she finds that from any
cause whatever the blossoms drOop and
threaten an early death she clips the
stems, and, by letting the stalks rest for
a while in steaming water, finds every
leaf revive and freshen under the pro-
cess.-IHustrQted american.

THE HEDGE SPARROW.

There are several species of bird called
sparrow. The generic characteristic Of
these species is the conical bill and a
habit Of feeding upon seeds and small
insects. The hedge sparrow nests in
bushes, aud in England harbors in the
frequent hawthorn hedges. 1t is known
rs Accentor modularis, and is a singing
bird. 1t is reddish brown in color and
the wings are tipped with white. The
common English sparrow, so unfavorably
known here for its bad habits, is the
house sparrow, and nests about houses,
in the roofs, over doorways and win
dows, and in ivy and other creeping
plants which cover the walls and porches.
1t feeds on grain chiefly, and while it
will occasionally eat insects, yet its habit
is to devOur grain wherever and when
ever it can. The wren is a much smaller
bird and is entirely harmless; on the
other hand, it is voracious insect eater,
and so is the "tree creeper," which has
a habit of clinging to the bark and
hanging to the branches in its search for
insects. Farmers who have seen a ten
acre wheat field with the grain broken
down for rod from the fences all
around. or the corn with the ears torn
open and the soft grain eaten for two
inches or more down the cobs, do not
think there is anything premature about
the common sparrow except its most I'M
wise and injurious importation hither by
some foolish people who would listen to
no warning. -NeD York Times.

CHICAGO, April 14-The council had

filing out of the chamber last evening
when the words you're THEIR you're

stopped to listen, and Mayor Cregier and
Alderman Durham were seen in angry
alteration, both pale with passion and
gesticulating violently. The trouble
arose through Mayor Cregier's refusing
to recognize motion of Alderman Dun
ham just before the council ad journed.
Alderman Durham had moved that the
ordinance of the Chicago and Northern
Pacific railway regarding the straighten-
ing of the river be referred back to the
committee on harbors and bridges. The
mayor did not recognize the alderman
and motion being put to adjourn it was

streets and alleys, west, and it could not
be referred from one committee to an
