DECIDEDLY CLEVER.
A Parrot That Could Speak Two
Hundred Words

Hundred Words.
The guests of downtown hotel were
holding private dancing party the
other evening. In the hallway between
the large dining room, which was to be
used for dancing. and the parlors in
which the guests were assembl prior
to the dance, was large cage, contain
ing beautiful green parrot, says the
Boston Herald.
AS Herald man watched the bird he
thought what dull and uninteresting
creature it was, for the parrot looked as
glum as an owl. Presently the strains
OF the orchestra began to float gently
from the dance hall through the CORR
doris, and Joe-to which name the BIRD
answers-began to wink knowingly and
cock his head sideways. Then he be-
gan to screech joyously, and was APP
parently highly delighted that the mo-
notonOGs stiffness had been broken and
the festivities inaugurated.
AS the ladies, escorted by their gen.
tlemen, began to file past the parrots
cage down the corridors to the dance
hall, Joe began to feel lonely at the
thought of being alone, and was evil
IDENTITY tri1e piqued at not being in
vited to join them, for he blurted out in
p
couple passed: Let me come in," and
George. come back and take joe"
Beyond passing good-n atured re-
| mark no one noticed poor Joe, and this
neglect so enraged him that he fell 10
shrieking fearfully in a manner to
| make even a scissors-grinder stop his
wheeZy machine through sheer nerv-
business.
The owner of the parrot, hearing the
noise, Immediately approached the cage,
and in soothing terms, asked, "What'S
the matter. Joe?" '.Joe's all right.
What's the matter with you?" said the
bird, in good, genuine English. This
caused general litter, but the owner
was stern, and shouted, ''Shut up"
whereupon this highly educated and
talkatiye bird told him to go to a certain
warm place.
This shocked the ladies present, and
the proprietor Of the feathered circus
thought he had better pursue different
tactics; so he began to humor the
creature.
Joe Immediately appeared to be cog
infant Of the change in his masters
voice.
He became decidedly social, and gave
an exhibition of his knowledge of the
English language.
Here are some of the things that the
bird said, which the reporter had time
to catch: Monkey, monkey. bottle of
beer. how many monkeys are there
here?" and, as lady stopped to talk
with him: kiss me again, like it;
kiss me again, like it; I'll tell papa,
he'll tell mamma: kiss me again, l like
it," He concluded this sentence in gut
teral tones: Yum. yum. yum"
The owner of the bird proudly told
the company that Joe could speak, to
his knowledge. some 200 words.
He also said that Joe was fond of
company, and that If he had not placed
the bird where he conld see and hear
all that was going on he would raise the
roof with blood-curdling shriekS.
As the Herald man bid the owner of
this semi-human but most precarious
bit of property good day." he solili-
Quized on the length of time that bird
and his master would have lived had he
been in old Salem during the days when
Witchcraft was thought to abound.
