"When he appeared with his

But they were both good,

SAILOR BOYS FORTUNE.
Romance of a Deserter Who Falls
Heir to His Fathers Money.

homance OF Deserter Who Falls
Heir to His Fathers Money.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
Thomas Stone, an eighteen-year-
old English sailor, who had been
living a hand-to- mouth existence
during the last seven months, has
fallen heir to the estate of his
3 father, valued at over E32,0OO.
! 1t was an early hour on a stormy
! morning last March when a be-
I draggled and worn out young man
applied at the home Of Michael
Rigney, 2l5 Seventh. street,
+ Oakland, says the San Francisco
Chronicle, for a meal. He told
"A straight forward story about de-
sorting this ship in the bay the
day before, and said he had slept !
under the Eighth-street bridge all |
night. Mr.. Rigney took compass |
sion on the desOlate sailor, and |
supplied him with food and warm |
clothing. AS Stone proved willing !
to work, and there was a good deal /
of labor to be performed about the |
place, Mr.. Rigney permitted him
to remain, and since then he has
made the Rigney home his head
quarters.
The tale the stranger told was
as follows: Five years ago he was
a school boy in England, and had
a penChant for reading tales of adj
His reading made him
So long for travel that he ran away
and went to sea. When he came
home his father took him to Liver
pool and bound him over to a sea
captain for a voyage to and from
He was signed for two
years, but long before the voyage
had been finished the boys dreams
had been dispelEed and he had de-
tcrmined to desert. When thieves
sci reached San Francisco on the
hOmeWard voyage he accordingly
got ashore and stayed there. He
was penniless, hence his applica-
ton for charity at the home of the
Rigney's.
During the voyage from England
to Australia the sailors father
died, leaving him a fortune of more |
than E32,OOO. But the news to this
effect only came recently.

PRAIRIE CHICKENS.
Tho birds Havo q Dance Very Much On
. ... tho Indian Order.

. .... tho Indian Ordcr.
At this season of the year North
American birds are busily engaged ut
love making. preparatory to mating
and nest building. In an article on
the "Livcs and Loves of North Amer
icon Birds in the Nineteenth Century,
John Worth gives the following de-
scription of the preliminary courtship
of the prairie chickens" After the
disappearance of the snow" he suys,
A'and the coming of warmer weather,
the prairie chickens (shal D. tailed
grousc) meet every morning at gray
dawn. in companies from six to twcn-
ty, on some selected hil1ock or knoll,
and indulge in the dance At first
tho birds stand about in ordinary atti-
tudes. resembling people at ball be-
fore the music begins, when suddenly
one of the cocks lowers his head,
spreads out his wings nearly horizontal
ly and his tail pcrpendicular4y distends
his air sacS nnd crccts his feathers,
then ruShcS across the floor taking
tho shortest of steps, but stamping his
feet SO hard and so rapidly that the
sound is like that of the kettle drum;
at the same time he utters q sort Of
bubbling crow. which: sccras to come
iiom his air sues. beat the ar with his
wings. ard vibrates his tail SO that he
produces loud, rustlipg noise, and
thus becomes q really astonishing
spectacle. Soon after one commences
all the cocks join in, rattling. stamp
ing, drumming. Growing and dancing
together furiously: louder and louder
the noise. faster and faster the dance
becomes, until ut last they madly whirl
about, leaping over each other in cx-
citcment. After brief spell the en-
ergy Of the dancers begins to abnte,
and shortly aftcrwarl they cease. and
stand or move about very quietly, untia
they arc again started by one of their
number leading Off. as human dancers
nrc observed to do during the intervals
of rest between their performances.
"Thc wtTolc operation reminds the
aoo!Ecr-on SO GtronR1yef Cree dance
as to suggest the possibility of it's being
tho prototype of the Indian exercise.
The space occupied by the dancers
Is from fifty to one hundred feet
across. and as returned to year after
year the grasssis usually worn off. and
the ground tramplcd down har;l and
.Glnooth. Dancing is indulgcd in at
any timo of the morn ing or evening in
May. but Is usually at its height before
sunriSc."
