In n Few Minutes 1t Learned Some New
Sounds But Forgot rs Clever Songs.
There he goes again. groarcd Mr..
George Phalsn, a wealthy resident Of
Highbridge. Was ever man cursed
with such a bird
"Bird!' exclaimed Mr.. Phalen's visitor
in astonishment. Why, You don't
mean 10 say you keep a bird with all
those cats in the house, For the sudden
chorus Of Kissing, splitting and mewing
that foated in from the rear room seemed
to indicate that an animated feline argu-
ment was in progress there.
There is no cat under my roof " was
the reply. All the noise you hear is
made by single mocdng bird. Just
step into the other room andl look at him.
4 more w~oebegone creature you never
saw"
The bird, indeed, looked as though he
had seen hard and long service. He had
no vestige Of a tail left, and one of his
eyes was gone. His few feathers We're
rufhed, and all his sleek and glorious
beauty had departed.
Three years g old Nick chat is his
name was a remarkably handsome bird,
said Mr.. Phalen, "and his numerous ac-
complishmeuts made him a great favor

The Campbells Are Coming and a
dozen other airs with wonderful clear
ness and musical precision, and he was

in an hour. ! would not ave sold him
then for $500.
But one night everybody in the house
was awakened by an awful uproar in the
back parlor. The hooking bird was
shriekng, shouting and swearing like a
human being; a cat, that must have en-
tered by the cellar door, for we harbored
none of his kind, was splitting and hiss
ing furiously, and the sound OF some
heavy metallic object dashed frequently
and violently against the furniture was
distracting. I went down stairs with a
light, and | found that the cats paw was
tightly wedged between the wires Of the
birds prison, and the terrified brute was
swinging the cage about the room, try
ing TO release himself. Old Nick was
nearly dead and badly d~ilapidated, rs
you see him now. before could olsen

him out into the darkness.
The birds tail never grew again, nor

he suddenly made the air vocal with a
horrible series Of c-aterwaulings, and he
has kept them up almost without inter
mission ever since. In the few dreadful
minutes that he passed face to face with
the cat he learned every information of

and utterly forgot all the songs and

The following Is told of a judge before

the watch was his, and the woman was

The judge asked him if he wound the
watch frequently with the key, and he
said YES"
Then n key was procured, watch and
key We're handed to the prisoner. and he
was told to wind the watch. He opened
the case but could not find any place "a

keyless one. The sentence was five

Clothing for men consists of knee
breeches, belted at the loins, a loose
fitting cloak trimmed around the bot
tom, and the hood with wolf or wolverine.
or a blending Of both, a pair Of stockings
and a short legged pair of boots with
sealskin soles. In winter two suits are
worm, the inner suit with the hair next
the body and the outer with the hair
turned out.
The difference between the dress Of
men and women is that the latter have
their boots, stockings and pantaloons all
in n garment. The cloaks of all fe-
males have at the back of the neck a
fullness for carrying infants.
These cloaks come down below the
knees and are gored out at the sides up
to the hips, making the front look like
an apron.-Exchange.

THE ACTION


The international complications which
were expected to arise from the killing Of
the Malta in New Orleans have now
reached such a stage that they may even
tuate in 3 more serious manner than was
at first anticipated The recall of the
Italian minister may not signify more than
a determination on the part Of the Italian
government to deal directly with the gov
u Of the United States, without
the Intervention Of even an accredited and
trusted minister, So far as the plan OF
the Italian government has developed 1t
has been characterized by a reasonable
appreciation of the peculiar circumstances
which surround the case, while at the
same time there is an evident determine
ton to obtain whatever Of justice right
fully belongs to them. In this connection
il cannot be forgotten that three of the
men killed by the New Orleans mob were
Italian subjects, aud had just been &C.
quilted Of the crimes with whichthey had
been charged. This is the case as it ap.
pears on the surface.
Beneath, however, Is the well estab-
hshed TACT Of secret organization com
posed OF these same men whose object
WAS 10 murder those who stood in the way
Of their purposes. The society bad muir
dered the chief OF police in broad day
light and they had terrorized a majority
ofthe people Of the city. Justice at the
trial was lame and battling. Corruption
and bribery were means employed to
reach the jury and on the presentation of
evidence which satisfied the general public
Of the guilt OF the accused, these men
were acquitted, The subsequent action
OF the people Of New Orleans has no
parallel 10 history. 1t was an uprising,
not of the lowest aud most depaved Gle
meuts, but Of the most representative
men Of the city. They started out to ac-
complish a speoifo purpose and that pur-
pose once accomplished they desisted.
No property was destroyed and no
damage was done except such as was alb
s~olutely necessary in reaching the pris-
oners confined in the jail No man be
lieved TO be innocent was disturbed.
The constitutional aspects OF the case
may be lcaruedly discussed by the Eastern
papers but the New Orleans uprising went
back to first principles which we're in
vogue before constitutions were invented
and their action will be generally approved
by the American people no matter to
what lengths this approval NAV ultimately
carry them.

This Can he Done ON Nearly Every Farm.
Given a flow of 100 gallons of water
per minute and plenty of liver and scraps
thrown in and you can raise ,000pounds
of trout in a pond 10 feet deep, 10 feet
long and ten feet broad, replacing them
with small ones as rapidly as they reach
marketable size, It can be done very
prohtably too. The time is looked for
ward to, and it is not far away, when
every farmer viii look upon an acre Of
water as he does upon an acre of land,
expecting so much yearly yield from it,
whether it is pond lake, river or estuary.

Presence of mind Is not always mo-
nopolized by the brave and wise, nor is it
uniformly cultivated for great and good
purposes.
Several Of the pupils in a certain
''backwoods" district determined not TO
study geography. The teacher believed
that they were old enough TO begin the
subject, and accordingly called one Of
the Oldest boys to her desk and spoke to
him about the necessity of n knowledge
Of his own and other countries.
II sha'n't study geography till | Kit

The teacher rose quickly and seized
him by the collar, intending to shake
him, when the young rascal hastily add

Many Roman and Greek epicures were
very fond of dogs flesh. Before Chris

on every ninth year ninety-nine dogs
were sacrificed. In Sweden each ninth
day ninety-nine dogs were destroyed.
But later on dogs were not thought good
enough, and every ninth year ninety
nine human beings were inundated, the
