A WONDERFUL PARROT.
Nile. Jacquot, the Great Minnie. Prims
Donna and Composer.


One OF the best mimics in France. and q
prima donna and composer Of considerable
ability. is Mile. .lacqnot. The great OBJ
stacle in Mile. Jacquot's road to fame as
rival Of PiandHette, Strauss, Often
bach, Jakobowski. Meyerbeer, Czibulka'
and Balfe, is that unlike those celebrities
she cannot put her improyisations on
paper Neither can she get the same air
twice. exactly alike. The mademoiselle is
forty eight years old, but gives no indica-
tion Of the fact that she Is more than
twenty. She was born in Africa, and is OF
dusty gray color. She is equipped with
pair Of very powerful wings and fortis-
smo whistle. In fact Mile. Jacquot II a
parrot, the property OF NJ. Nicaise. a menu

lie has owned her for nearly quarter OF
IA century.
The parrot can initiate any sound it
hears, aud when the day Is bright and she

whittier she had been sent for safe Keeping
when her master went off to the war to
fight the Germans. This imitation .Iac-
quot gives in such truly artistic fashion
that many strangers hearing it for the
hrst time have been thoroughly startled
10y the piercing sqneals and piteous grunts.
Whenever VI. Nicaise goes toward the
window for the purpose OF raising or low
ering IL the parrot perfectly initiates the
sound which will ensue before her master
has touched the sash. When he comes
home In the evening Jacquot scents his APP
proaeh at IA considerable distance aud no
tities her mistress by railing, DO Dor at
the top Of her voice. She is very familiar
with her mistress, whom she calls Marie.
On one occasion the bird was in the sitting
room near the fire when cual fell out
OF the CRATE and ignited the carpet. Polly
in a loud tone cried for Marie" and thus
undoubtedly prevented what might have
been serious blaze.
Mile. Jacquot is fond Of dancing, and
whenever she is seized with s,ltatorinl
ht she composes her own music, and, more
remarkable still although she never re-
peats an air twice, she invariably ends on
the same key ON which she began. The
most pleasant feature of her performances
is that she never sulks when asked to
show off. " She is as proud OF her accom-
plishments as a boy is of his first pair OF
boots. Jacquot does not like men and per
siStently refuses to he sociahle with them,
but To women she is the most approach
able Of birds. When her mistress Furnishes
her for some misdemeanor She assumes u
penitent look and moaus in a way that is
ludicrous in the extreme. Altogether she
is undoubtedly the most wonderful parrot
in the world. and certainly the most val
uahlc. for II would take small fortune
to buy her from her present OWNERS. who
really regard her as "one OF the family"

A Fatal Ring.

Round the neck Of the holy virgin
Of Almudens, the patron saint OF
Madrid. for whom fine new church
is being built close to the royal pal
ace, very beautiful diamond ring
hangs on a thin gold chain. The
ring belonged to the late King AL
phonso NIL, and strange history is
connected with it, which may well
appeal to the minds Of the supersti-
tious Spaniards. On the day OF his
wedding to Mercedes, the daughter
of the Duke of Montpensier, the
King gave the ring to the bride, who
wore it till her early death. After
the funeral the King gave the ring to
his grandmother, Queen Christine,
who died soon after. Infanta Maria
del Pillar, the sister of the King,
then became it's possessor. She had
worn it only a few days when she
died. Then the ring became the
property Of the King once more, and
he gave it to the sister OF his late
cOnsort, Princess Christina, the
youngest daughter Of the Duke OF
Montpensier. Three months later
the girl was dead. The King had
now become aware OF the unfortunate
condolences, and instead OF giving it
away again he himself wore the ring,
till he also went to his early grave

Some boys do only what they have
seen done by somebody else; other
boys, the boys who make a mark in
the world, look at things with their
own eyes, and if thing needs to be
done, set about doing it. Without
brag or buster they act as If their
motto were, What man has not done,
man can do" OF one such boy the
Washington Post prints character
istic anecdOte.
A few years ago a green country
boy applied to the superintendent Of
Western railway for work, and,
somewhat against the superintend-
cnt's wish, on account of the danger
to life and limb attendant upon such
occupation, was given place as
brakeman of freight train.
On one Of his first trips it happened
that his train met another freight
train at a station where the side
track was not long enough to accom-
modate either Of them. The con-
ductOrs were debating which train
should back up to point where they
could pass, when the new hand vent
ured to suggest that neither should
back; that they could pass each other
by means Of the short side track il the
thing was managed right.
The idea excited good deal OF
laughter on the part OF the old
trainmen, but the boy stood his
ground.
well, how would you go about it?"
asked one Of the conductors, confident
that the lad would soon find himself
against stump.
The boy took up stick and traced
in the sand diagram to illustrate his
plan.
Good graciOus." said the conductor,
Il believe that will do it.'
And it did do it. To-day every
trainman in America knows how to
saw by" two long trains on short
side track, but it is not so generally
known that the thing was never done
until an inexperienced country boy,
who is now the manager OF great
railway line, worked out the problem
for himself.
