A CLEVER PARROT.

F. x Zeig'er, of Columbus, Pa, has
a parrot named Dick that is considered
one of the family and is perhaps one
of the most intelligent birds of its
species in the world. Dick always
takes a hand in household matters. If
Mr.. Ziegler's son does not get up in the
morning at the usual hour to go to the
Office, the parrot will say to the girl,
Call Glenn" and he will insist Oh his
command being obeyed. I recalled
on one occasion when the family was
earnestly discussing some local event
Dick broke in as follows: "Papa, do
you love mammal" Eyes, of course /
do" replied Mr. Zeigler, when the par
rot blurted out, "Oh, you old fraud!'

THEY GET H PIE.

At the dinner table the other day a
lady told a story which amused us
very much. This is the way it ran:
"When I was a little girl I was very
fond of apple pie, and my brother had
a cute trick that he used to play to get
it away from me without coaxing for
it or taking it by force. About the
time I was ready for my pie, he was
generally at my elbow asking if I
wanted to hear the st ry of how a
tiger eats a little boy. liked stories
even better than I did pie and 1 was
quite ready to hear the story first and
eat my pie afterwards. So my brother
would proceed with his story ilIustrat-
ing it with CHASTITY grimaces and
terrible contortions that would set me
into a convulsion of laughter and good
humored excitement. It took me a
long time to find out that while he was

PROPERLY NAMED.

A colored nan n c sued a neighbor
for damanges for the loss of his dog,
which his neighbor had killed. The
defendant wished to prove thatthe dog
was a worthless cur, for whose destruc-
ton no damages ought to be recovered.
The attorney for the defense called
one Sam Parker ~lcolored) to the wit
ness stand, w~hereupon the following
conversation ensued:
''Sam, did you know this dog that
was killed by Mr.. Jones9"
Eyes, sab; I was ~pussonally ac-

"Well, tell the jury what kind of a
dog it was"
"He war a big yaller dog"

wouldn't do no guard duty. He jes'

and hardness to hook on the engine to
the runaway.
Reverse her, Bill" he shouted to
the stoker. Meanwhile Munro, walk
ing along the foot-boards, and holding
by the hand-rails, reached the carriage
in which his bride was.
"Oh, Arthur" she cried when she
saw him, "Igot such alright. Thought
you were left behind!"
He broke into a scream of almost
hysterical laughter as he hurried on to
the runaway engine. There was little
difficulty or danger in getting on to it
and shutting off the steam now, since
the train began to feel the backward
pull of the reversed engine behind and
Milly was saved.
Il thought you had gone mad. What
made you laugh like that, Arthur"
she asked.
"At your being driver, stoker, guard

away with my pie"
They all laughed heartily, but they
laughed still more when an old gentle
man present applied the story in this
way:
'That is the attitude Of plutocracy
toward labor. It has been making
grimmaces and telling stories while it
has been stealthily getting away with
the pie. Labor's got its eyes open and
now and wonders how it could have
been such a dupe."

assert that the parks were mot estab.
