led, he repeated it with sweetness and
clearness that would have filled the auth
or's soul with delight.
One morning the door of Dicks cage was
opened, and he came out and looked about
him with great expression of wonder in
his little bead like eyes. Then he piped
forth few low strains, flew to the table,
and began to peck loaf Of bread.
CT wish he was bigger, 80 could pet
him." said one of the big men.
Every morning afterward Dick had
breakfast with the young men. He would
hop on the table, sampling everything he
came across, and bathing frequently in the
goblets of ice water. Breakfast over, Dick
would fly back to his cage, and getting in
to the little swing at the top of it, would
sway mad1y to and fro, and sing every
thing he knew That was regarded as an
Offering of praise, and quiet reigned during
the performance.
The trial came, when the young men
failed to agree, and it was resolved to sew
er the family. Each Of them was willing
that the other should take everything else
| in the fat if they would give Dick to him.
But that was not to be thought of for a
moment, and the young men kept together
for a month longer than they intended in
| order not to be separated from their pet. "
Finally one of the young men deliberate
| ly carried Dick away and kept him in
hiding for several months, and guard
| ed him as carefully as a miser watches
over his money. Then he rented the
| fat in Sixteenth street, and few
| nights ago invited his former companions
| to see Dick. AS he ushered his guests into
| the hall they were greeted with burst of
music. They recognized the voice of Dick.
| The moment they entered the room where
| the little songster was he few as near as he
could and cooed softly snd ruffied his
feathers gently.
There may be persons in the world who
would scout the suggestion of bird re-
| membering faces for so long time, but
| there is not the slightest doubt that Dick
| remembered the young men and that he
| was welcoming them with all his heart.
During all the time they were in the fiat
Dick sang all the old tunes. He stopped
only when one of them spoke to him, and
| then he would be silent and cock his little
head on one side and peep intelligently.
The young men readily accepted an invi-
tat1on to remain all night, and the next
morning before they were out of bed they
heard the magic music of the little song
ster. At breakfast he hoped on the table
and Topped in all their glasses of water in
order to let them see that all were dear to
him. Before the three visitors left, the
man who had stolen Dick from them made
each one promise that he would not attempt
| to steal the bird

General e. E. Bradley made an address
and said that Ex-Governor 81. B. Harrison
told him that If he were present he would
propose the erection of q monument to the
men who opposed Campbell's entrance to
New Haven, and would Tread the list with
$25 for that purpose. General Bradley
moved that the chairman appoint com
mittee of three to collect funds for mon
ument to be erected at West River bridge
in commoration of it's defenders. Judge
L. P. Deming warmly seconded General
Brad1ey's motion. Chairman Baldwin ap-
pointed as committee General E. E. Brad
ley, Judge L. P. Deming and Major Hiram
Camp to collect the subscriptions. The
committee began work Immediately and in
thirty minutes had collected $50.
The following are those who subscribed
for the monument;

Jonn M. Hubbard, the Woodmont poet,
attracted much attention. He was dressed
in a white skirt with several red sashes
wound about his body and head, and wore
a badge upon which was printed the legend,

his attire which he calculated to impress
his beholders with was that in this land of
liberty man, or any number of men may
erect a monument to one of the notorious
Tryon's command, or to anyone else whom
they see fit to honor.

TIGHT LACING AND PAINT.

why English Women of Respectable
erent.
London Letter to Boston Herald
Tight lacing is one of the banes of En-
glish beauty. In the martyr-ike struggle
to compress their ribs the English women
have succeeded only at the expense of I'M
sightliness in other directions. On any &C.
casion to which the name of ''fuu Dress
is paradoxically given, you will see any
number of delicate waists, some of them
painfully small-as painful to the beholder
as they must be to the possessor. But the
arms and hands of the wasp wasted beau
ties are always red and blotchy. This is
one of the consequences of tight lacing as
they lace in England.
The American in England must not be
led by appearances. In no country in the
world are appearances so deceitful. The
dowdiest women you may see will not be
washerwomen, or even costermonger' g
girls; they may be dowsger duchesses.
The most gorgeously colored woman paint
ed like country villas or Barnum's chariots,
are, in SO cases out of 100, not femmes de
plaisir, but women Of eminent respecta-
bility.
The worst of this painting is that it is
worn by daylight as we'll as by gaslight.
This painting up to the mines to go into
the park of bright afternoon shows a lack
of discretion which is difficult to under
stand. Eyes painted, lips painted, cheeks
painted, necks half painted, ears not paint
ed at all-these women saunter forth, got up
for all the world like the nymphs du pave
who SO fright the soul of Mr.. McDougall,
L. G. G. They make their calls, they Wis
it their sick friends, they go to the art gal
leries, to the matinees, to the races, they
go up the river, they go on the coaches
| they go everywhere, painted as if for pan
| tomine. The heart Of the stranger is re-
| joiced when he sees clean face.
If Englishmen do not give much thought
to this alleged decorative art, which is more
| disfguring than any hump; if they are sc
accustomed to it that they do not trouble
themselves about it, one thing is certain,
they are attracted by women who do not
paint They may not know why they are
attracted Cleanliness may be the secre
of it-novelty may be the magnet that
draws; but they are attracted, and thu
painted matrons, the powdered dowageri
and the rouged virgins become wearisomt
by their abundance.
The old women who paint are even more
astonished than the young ones. You will
see them in the park as highly rouged as
any of the girls of : :, or any Of the ma
irons of 40-womerl of so and 20 and 80
aged parties who have 10 be lifted int
their carriages for very 6acrepitude. Tn,
paint is piled deep in the wrinkles, andth
color makes the venerable, if not venerated
creatures CHASTITY in the sight of the loung
ers who stroll along the "ladies mile"

In gilded cage in the top fiat of big
house in East Sixteenth street is little
ball of yellow feathers that is cared fol as
tenderly as any baby in the land. 1t is on
ly very tiny canary bird, with the unpre-
tentious name of Dick, but in spite of its
size and it's name it is the master of great
wealth of music. .
Dick never knew the pleasures of liberty,
having been born of captive parents in an
other gilded cage in another big fat farth-
or up town. Up to the time he was 6
months old he never did anything that was
worthy of especial attention. Then he was
removed from the parental cage and pri-
vate cage was bought for him, and was sent
down town under the charge of harum
scarum boy as present to four young men
who lived in fiat in Ninth street.
He was excepted as matter of courtesy,
and the cage which imprisoned him was
hung on string in a rear window, and
the servant was instructed to feed him
whenever it became necessary. The young
men were free and easy, and it was their

idle moments and whistle at Blind Tom.
who used to exercise on the rear piazza of
a house on Eight street, and at other times
to whistle at the neighbors' daughters in
the nearby buildings.
Blind Tom responded with whirl-wind
of music on the piano, and the neighbors'
daughters frequently showed their appre-
citation of the attention bestowed on them
by the young men by singing. One of the
young men occasionally played on a tin
flute, while another whistled an accom-
paniment.
Nobody paid any attention to Dick until
one morning when the sun shone on him,
making his yellow feathers glow like a bur.
nished lump of gold, he thrilled bar or
two sweet enough to attract the young
mems attention. One of them whistIed
and he instantly caught the refrain and
turned it promptly. Nothing more was
needed to make him great favorite. and
one of the young men poked finger at him
playfully. Dick did not autter away in
fear, but hoped toward the finger, and
without stretched wings, picked at it fierce
ly, and at the same time pecked his way into
the hearts of all the occupants of the fiat.
After that incident it was wonder that
Dicks health and morals were not ruined
for the young men insisted on feeding him
all sorts of stuff and whistIed all the yul-
gar airs of the day. But no matter what
kind of food was offered to him, he ate
it promptly and seemed to thrive, and no
matter how vulgar the cir that mas whist
