SPARROW,F ARMIXG IN KANSAS.

Lawrence dispatch In The Boston Globe.
On the bank Of the Kaw River, about two miles
above this city, is farm which Is probably the
most unique business in the West.
The English sparrow has always been looked upon
outlaw among birds and "a pest TO man, but j..
d. Norton has an eve to business and thought there
money in the little birds II they properly
handled.
He got rs many ms he could collect and took them
to his place where he had arranged houses and cor
ners for them 10 build their nests and propagate.
All along the river there grows tall weed which
bears seed especially liked by the birds, and the
sparrows found II out and made their home con
tentedly the farm.
This was four Years ago and tic little fellows have
multiplied in marvellous manner.
Mr.. Norton Is now ping the benefit OF his fore
sight and Is supplying the market with birds at good
round prices. They sold sparrows at all sea
sons, but when they reach the tables of the
hotels and restaurants In Kansas City, ST. Louis and
Chicago they become rredbirds and riccbrds, ac-
cOrding 10 the season.
The birds have accumulated by the thousands and
now the whole country is alive with them
Mr. Norton has the business down tO a system and
does not food the markets with them, bnt sells lust
enough 10 keep the hotels scsnuly supplied and thus
keeps the price mp. The birds multiply so rapidly
that there Is danger Of their being depopulated
As they bring good prices the man who thought
Of the idea is ccinng money and while he Is at very
little expense his flock is increasing rapidly and bids
far TO bring him fortune, the Intention is To sup,
proper arrangements for Transporting the birds.

finishes of the Independent Theatre with
the remark that its ideas come exclusively
from foreign sources. That, for public which
borrows nearly all its modern plays from foreign
sources, is conclusive. The Independent Theatre
does in fact to many minds spell Ibscn, and Ibscn
only, and Mr.. Irving has q remark upon lbsen
which may, fear, infuriate the Ibsenitcs.
Ibsen it is said, is in the future to be our
dramatic teacher. and 1 learn from one of his
prophets that his plays have abolished Cod duty.
the devotion OF a mother TO her children, and
the obligation of man TO his fellow-man; though
perhaps it may be that this achievement may not
be regarded quite complete by the rest Of the
world
In any English playwright going to expound
this philosophy TO the publicp queries Mr..
Irving with his most innocent air. He fails TO
recognize in these new notions any resemblance
to the sentiments which prevail in this country.
The English drama must, in his judgment, be ex
position Of English life and character. That, doubt
less is the reason why the English adapter of a
French play turns the French names of places and
persons into English names, and leaves all the rest
French. The exception is when his just awe Of
Mrs. Grundy and the British Matron compels
him to turn French mistresses into English wives,
and to add piquanoy TO the plot by substituting
matrmony for the more illicit relations between
the personages of his piece which commonly exist
in the original.
OF all this we hear nothing from Mr.. Irving
whose obligations TO the French perhaps less
than those of any other manager. 1t is not on
the stage Of the Lyceum that the imported
goods from beyond the Channel are most COM
monty TO be found. Yet even Mr.. Irving does,
aal lao iuac
foreign authors, and he has at this moment in
preparation "a remarkable play written by an
author whose work, so far as / know, has not
been seen in England" Not Ibsen, at any rate.
The announcement is judiciously calculated to eX-
cite the curiosity it fails to crafty. But what
is best in this manifesto of Mr.. 1rvings is his
protest against the pretensions Of the new school
who have gone to Scandinavia in search Of
schoolmaster, to the dissecting-room for their
methods and to the cutters for their morality.
