The common massasauRa is far from

very abundant. To believe the stories OF
the early settlers, a low meadow could not
be moved without encountering from ten

One Of the chief aims In the life Of New
York street gsmin apparently is to worry
italian fruit vendors as much as possible
The swRrthy children OF sunny Italy are
never at peace when the irrepressible street
urchin Is around. Their bananas, pears,
peanuts and figs are regarded as legitimate
plumber by the boys 1t is the custom Of
these young rascals to approach an Italians
stand or wagon In groups from different
directions. The group that makes the first
sally will invariably be chased away by
the excitable vender. Then the other
groups advance and help themselves to the
unprotected stock. An incident occurred
In Whitehall street. near the Produce ex-
change, the other day, which demonstrated
how little chance the poor italian street
peddler has in q struggle with his torment
ers. A good sized boy had stolen half a
dozen bananas from stand guarded by q
single Italian. The latter ran after the
thief and caught him, but not before the
boy had tossed the bunch of fruit to con.
federate.
The italian held firmly to his prisoner
and jabbered something about "p'lice-
man." He evidently wanted the thief ar.
rested. The boy pulled, wriggled and
fought, frequently striking his captor in
the face. Other boys ran up at intervals
and struck and kicked the Italian. A
large crowd quickly gathered, and popular
feeling was against the Italian from the
start. A dozen men pressed forward and
commanded the fruit vender to release the
boy. A passing teamster leaned over the
edge of his seat and shouted, Break de-
dago in two" Tho situation became too
threatening for the Italian, who seeing nc
sign of police officer, reluctantly released
his prisoner and humbly went back to his
stand, which in the meantime had been al
most completely despoiled of its contents

If ever there was man who could be
said to travel on his shape it is big
john" of the Equitable building, the
great big handsome colored gentleman
who for so many years has been the from
tispiece and figurehead of that costly pile
of masonry.
Big John was discovered, mined. un.
earthed in the wilds of Washington. The
late Henry d. Hyde caught sight OF him
at Lincoln's funeral. john filled his eye
so completely that he was scarcely able to
see the rest Of the procession.
II must have that man. said Mr.. Hyde
"He is too big man for Washington"
1t did not take long to find that John
was on the Capitol police or to approach
him. John was not oyeranxious to effect a
change of base, but the offer of SO per cent
advance upon his policeman's salary set
tied the question, and since that time the
seven footer Tor Less has ornamented the
front row Of the Equitable building.

Body lice on fowls are hard to destroy
and must be kept down systematically.
Fanciers' Monthly says no single prep
aration will entirely exterminate them
and advises the following:
Provide birds with good dust bath in
which tobacco dust, ashes, sulphur, ETC.,
have been mixed. Occasionally give
them thorough powdering with
buhach. The main point is to keep the
roosts, nest boxes and house entirely
free from vermin, and if then given n
good dust bath the fowls will keep
themselves comparatively free from lice.
For lice on the heads of the chickens
powder them well with tobacco dust,
buhach or any good insect powder.
Some breeders use oil or grease, but we
consider such remedy worse than the
disease dry powder is the only thing
that should be applied to very small
chickens. Large gray lice come from
the hens. II you once rid the chickens
of such vermin and thereafter pay
proper attention to the coops you will
experience no further trouble from that
source.
