A Divorce Prevented,

Legal proceedings for divorce suit were
about to be served upon a very prominent
business man Of this city, when friends in
terfered and called upon the much wrong
ed wife. She on her part averred that the
only way she would consent to stop pro-
ceedings was for her husband to 20 forth
with to NJ. j. Smit, the first direct import
er of diamonds, in whose windows she had
for her a pair of genuine diamond ear
drops and lace pin to match. The friends
Immediately advised the husband as to the
above, and he readily consented and all
concerned wended their steps to M. J..
Smit's, 81 Smithfield street, and made the
purchase. Thus all is we'll that ends we'll.

AN ENGINEER's PREMoNITIoN.
He side-Tracks His Train and Thus Avoids
a Collision.

A telegraph operator on one of the single
track roads leading out of Pittsburg had au
experience last week that will last him n
lifetime. The young man become careless.
as dispatchers sometimes will, and he gave
orders for a freight and passenger train.
moving in opposite directions, to 60 to a
certain station. When the trains had
started, the operator suddenly remembered
that they couldn't reach the place without
a collision. 1t was too late to countermand
the order, and in his agony cold drops of
perspiration ran down over his face. In de-
scribing his feelings afterward, he
said he lived years in the few
short minutes which would decide the
fate of the trains He was startled and re.
lieved by seeing the engineer of the freight
walk into the tower. The engineer had re-
ceived his orders, but when he reached
switch he had premonition there was
something wrong, and he turned in on the
side track. His train was scarcely out of
the way when the express thundered by.
The next day the operator went to the
superintendent of the road, and told him
what had happened, at the same time hand
ing in his resignation. The manager looked
at him for a moment, and then said: GO
back to your work, my boy. This expert
ence has been q lesson for you. L don't
think it will occur in the future
The telegrapher, in telling the story, re-
marked that another such fright would drive
him crazy. He added that this is only a
sample of what narrow escapes people have
on railroads There is something in luck,
but few understand how intelligent train
men often avert disasters.

Some Decorum Among Birds.

In the Italian colony, back Of the Du-
quesne Hotel, one of the inhabitants keeps
a lot of corn on a fiat roof to feed the spar
rows and pigeons The latter are very dainty
creatures, and they refuse to eat while any
of the sparrows are around. A guest of the
hotel watched the birds enjoying dinner
the other day. AS a rule sparrows are very
pugnacious and selfish, but when the
pigeons lighted on the roof to receive their
share the little fellows gracefully retired in
their favor. The sparrows and pigeons seemed
to take their turns alternately at the food,
and strange to say there wasn't the slightest
ianpliSr between them

The Cricket Back in His Home.

One of the curiositIes of the Anderson
Hotel is the cricket that chirps in the ele-
vator. During the flood last winter the
little fellow was washed out of his home,
but he turned up after several days in
another part of the house. Then he slowly
moved his house from point to point until
he reached his old home in the elevator.
He has been there now for several months,
and evidently was glad to get back as his
song has been sharper and merrier ever
since The little fellow is well fed but
nobody in the house has seen him. His
music is the only thing that reveals his
rreSence

The utility of breeds is divided into
three classes by The Germantown Tele-
graph: /. For egg farming-Leghorns
Minorcas, Andalusians, Anconas, Span
ish, etc. 2. For table birds (roasted)-
Prahnas, Cochins, Games, etc. For
broilers, crosses of lighter breeds on the
above. g. For general purposes-Plym-
outh Rocks, Wyandottes, Houdans,
Langshans, etc. Now, for profit,
man can secure better returns by select
ing according to the class in which he is
interested. For instance, an egg farm
would be very slow concern run with
birds from class No. q Likewise meat
supply could not be secured by class No.
/. And where both are intended, and
only limited supply of each expected,
class No. will fill the bill. One reason
for a great many failures is that they do
not select their varieties judiciously.
This year we have secured plump birds
for broilers from the Wyandottes in
their purity, but still feel satisfied that
the equal of that Houdan-C Cochin cross
we tried last cannot be found. The Leg
horn makes a good cross on any of the
Asiatics or American classes for broilers,
and those who have tried Brahma crossed
on Cochin claim they make the best
roasters.
