They are, however, pre-eminently fan

which the cuts here given are repro

heads. crests, combs, etc., makes them
unique and specific in character and
quite unlike all other domestic breeds
of poultry in this respect. They have
been found fairly hardy when past

sized eggs, quite prolific and of average
good weight at maturity. In Paris these
birds are exceedingly popular at the no

their flesh being juicy, tender and short

found in the French city markets are
made of young Houdan, Creveceur and
La Fleche cockerels, grown in the
suburbs. They average in size about that
of the best Black Spanish. and in many
respects they strongly resemble that
breed.
We have not yet produced them in
this country in such quantities as to
know much of their value as a market

varieties the longest assert that they are
a very desirable class of stock to keep,

Infant PrOdigies.

The ranks of ''infant prodigy" art ar,
increasing to an extent which is posi-
lively alarming to adult virtuosi, fol
what chance has the veteran piano play
er or fiddler against the astonishing feats
of those small boys, who, we are told
leave their tops and balls in the dressing
room to come on the stage and electrify
an audience?
Master Rhyl Bowen, 5i-year-old vio
inist, with an astonishing technique, has
just made his second public appearance
in London and is said to reveal greater
talent than did Sarasate at the same age
1t is not unlikely that this small Welsh
boy will really develop into finished
adult artist, as his public appearance
will be rare, and his father, who is mu.
sician and instructs him, will not sacri
fee him to rapacious management.

What Is Fresh In Music?

While we talk of the work of n great
master as being ever fresh we are oecret-
ly sensible of the fact that it is no longer
fresh to us. After the second or third
hearing no piece of music is ever the
same to us again. In great and com
plex work we may still for some time
continue to discover the unexpected, but
by the time we know it thoroughly it
has become but an echo of its former
self, and we greet it with the faint smile
with which we linger over the photo
graphs that remind us of the holidays of
past years.
With equal truth it may be said that
the music Of one generation does not pro
duce quite the same effect on the next.
When the prayer from Rossini's "Mose'
was first performed in Naples, women
tainted and men trembled. There is very
little excitement to be got out of the
prayer from "Mose" in the present day,
and perhaps 80 years hence even the
overture to "Tannhauser" will be dry
and cold. But this only shows how
much Of musical impressiveness depends
on the element of vague apprehension.

A Musical Young Man.

The young man who wore his hair
long and talked music had been to call
on the young woman, and when he took
his leave she took herself into the library
where her father was and threw herself
on sofa wearily.
'Tired?' inquired the father.
Hes been talking music in the alb
stract," was all she said
"What did he say about it?"
"Well," she replied, che said that the
musical faculty is located in the second
frontal convolution of the brain, and as
1t has center in each cerebral hemi-
sphere a strong development of it ex-
pands the temporal region of the crani-
um about where the hair begins"

"Oh, no. He said further that the
temperament or mixture of the bodily
elements must also be very carefully
considered, and as the tone art is 80
largely matter of feeling and sugges-

sponsiveness in the fiber of the individ-
ual will be only second in importance to
the development of the brain"

they were received is simply remark

stories have been related right here

Of follows have stood about, saying

in Texas a cyclone swept the country
last year in the neighborhood of Par

down over large barn without

blew all the feathers off flock of
chickens and then passed up over

Chance For NimrOds In Arkansas.

The excessively high water at present
prevailing in this section has forced game
of all kinds from the lowlands, and the
bears and panthers of the Saline river
valley are killing the hogs and cattle Of
the farmers living along that stream in
Arkansas to an alarming extent. They
invaded the hogpens of George Gibson
and Pleas Fletcher of Saline county last
week and carried away four fine shoats
from the formers pen, while seven hogs
and two young calves are missed by thc
latter. The screams of the panthers at
night are said to be frightful, and hunt
ing parties are at work destroying the
enemy as rapidly as possible.-Little

North Eighth street about a month

no pleasure in Jimmie's countenance,
however, and he started home with
the sullen doggedness natural to boys
on these momentous occasions.
Ihad stopped to listen to the above

A Big Roundup on an Immense Range

One of the largest yearly roundups in
the far west was started out from the
Washington side of the river recently
with 40 men in the saddle. The horse
owners of the famous Horse Heaven
country combined for the event. The
range is 80 miles long and 30 miles
wide. extending from the mouth of
the Yakima river on the east to Alder
creek on the west The riders were di-
vided into two parties, one to start in at
the east end of the range and the other
at the west, the range to be secured and
all horses brought up in the center,
where the colts are to be branded.
They expect to round up about 10000
head Of horses. The animals stood the
winter well and are now in excellent
condition. Oregonian.

Effects Of MOderu Bullets.

The theory that the modern bullet,
fired from the modern rifle, makes q
less serious wound than the old fash
ioned bullet seems to be disproved by
the results noted in recent warfare.
1t has been generally stated that the
modern bullet, small leaden core
with steel covering, little larger
than an inch of ordinary lead pencil,
would go cleanly through flesh and
bone, and the results would be more
lisablements and less loss of life. The
contrary has been noted, however,
in the campaign by France in Daho-
mey. The Lebel bullet is found to
have an explosive effect. It tears its
way through flesh and bone, making
terrible wounds. usually with fatal
results.
The bullet from the Austrian Mann
hcher rifle is found to act in a similar
way A soldier was accidentally
killed near the Vienna arsenal two
weeks ago by a bullet from Mann
lcher rifle, and the postmortem
showed that far from simply pune
turing end passing through the body
it had made hideous wound. The
steel covering appeared to have
broken off from the leaden core on
contact with the body, and the two
pieces spread in the body with an ex
plosive effect, causing almost instant
death.
1t is said the Austrian authorities
contemplate trying new form Of
bullet. If they do, it will not be
necessarily from humanitarian i'm
pulses. From the firing party's point
of view especially bullet that dis
ables but does not kill is far better
than one that kills, because it puts
more men of the opposing force out
Of action. A dead soldier is out Of
every ones way, but a wounded one
needs attendance, and the greater
the number of wounded the more
the army is embarrassed in it's op-
erations. New Orleans Times-Demo-
