a very short time-probably not more

HANGED HIS OWN FATHER.
Remarkable Scene on a GaIlows in the
State of Washington.
From the Spokane Review.


1t was a strange meeting of father and
son on the occasion of the hanging of old
Bill Stebbins for the murder of his Sec
ond wife at Spokane The murder was
atrocious, the people said, and there
were few chances of sympathy for the
doomed man among the morbidly curious
stares of the little crowd that filled the
Jail yard.
The sheriff's deputies had attended to
the details. The trap was set ready to
be spung and in an instant send man
into the great beyond. The moose had
been mode carefully of the best hemp
rope, creased with tallow for that occa-
sion. The procession had moved up the
steps to the platform.
With business-lil1e dignity the sheriff
who had been notified, stepped from his
office, crossed the courtyard, and mount
ed the scaffold with the death warrant IN
his hand. He read the document in a
calm voice. as one would a notice of a
sherif's sale
And now, sir,' he said, turning to the
condemned man, "you are at liberty to
speak if there is anything on your mind. 5"
Throughout his trial, in the dark hours
after his sentence, through the last night
of his life, and while viewing curiously
from his cell the rays of the last sunrise
he would ever see on earth the victim of
the law had been stOically sullen Emo
ton had never shown itself in his face.
He had taken his fate philosophically
from the first, making no defense, saying
nothing when the stern Judge had given
him an opportunity to before passing SEN
tence. Few noticed it, but it seemed as if
a tear glistened in his eye then Address
ing himself to the sheriff, he said in a sup
pressed tone:
Won't you shake hands, my boy, be-
fore l go2"
The sheriff did not hear him, or if he
did no one could have told it, He was
still the businesS-lixe executive officer of
the county in which he lived nothing
more. ......
Il know 1 didn't treat you right" the
condemned man continued, showing a
trace of excitement, nor did your mother
eioher, but a word of comfort to man
that's going TO die isn't much. Won't
you say something's
Twenty years of battling with the
world on his own hook had hardened the
sheriff's heart. Silently he motioned the
assistants to buckle the straps, adjust the
cap and fix the ioose
Then with a steady hand and unwaver-
ing countenance, he pressed the button
and sent his father into eternity.

LADY MANAGERS HoRR1F1ED.
They Visited the Wicked Midway
P1aisance in the Worlds Fair.
From tho Now York World

Chicago, Ill, Aug. "a report on the
Midway Plaisance was introduced into an
unusually tame session of the lady mana
gers of the fair to-day by call for the
report of a committee appointed two weeks
ago to send out cards to the women in
the Midway Plaisance for the purpose of
inviting them to the wOman's building
They were there to be shown its beauties
by members of the board. The committee
had made no report and had taken no
action.
But the women needed no report to set
them talking Isabella Beecher Hooker
was the first to speak. She reviewed
briefly the character Of the famous street,
and said in conclusion:
II think we had better invite that quar-
ter, not in bulk as has been suggested, but
very much in detail"
do YOU mean to say" cried one of the
women, jumping to her feet as Mrs,
Hooker sat down, that any woman has
fallen so low that the board of lady man
ayers will not hold out helping hand TO
her2'
This brought Mrs Barker TO the plat
form. Il will take second place to no one
in missionary work" she said. Il went
to the Plaisance yesterday, impelled by a
sense of duty applause and laughter).
| never have been so grieved or shocked
in my life as at the things | saw. | shall
most certainly oppose inviting the women
who perform in the theatres there to meet,
socially, the members of this board.
They are, many of them, not representa-
tives of foreign nations, but women of
Chicago, chosen TO act these disgusting
parts. Can YOU endure the thought that
your sons and daughters should witness
such spectacles. | consider it our duty
rather than to entertain these people to
enter a protest against them and demand
that the places where they perform be
closed Appoint me as a committee and /
will plead with these women heartily at
whatever cost; but ] strongly object TO
the board putting themselves on record
as entertainers of the women who so
grossly violate the name by dancing in
the Midway"
Then Mrs. Barker sat down and cried
as if her heart would break. Mrs. Eel
ton hastened to tender her support. 81
want TO say, - she said, "that | went with
Mrs. Barker into these places, impelled,
like her, by a high sense of duty. Re

such demonstrations"
Mrs Shepard's testimony was on the
other side of the question.
II don't know where Mrs. Barker and
Mrs. FELTON, went" she said. II have
been in the Plaisance a great deal and
have never found anything disgusting,
but on the contrary much that was inter-

Mrs. Eagle, too, stood up for the Plais-

CROCODILE BIRDS.
An Old Story Revived and Proved as TO
the Wonderful Troohilos.


From the London Saturday Review
The current number of the Ibis contains
an extremely interesting communication
by Mr.. j. NJ. Cook on the subject of the
| old world story of the bird which is said
to attend on the crocodile and to enter its
mouth for the purpose of either picking
its teeth or removing the leeches from its
mouth. The latter is the older version,
and was told by Herodotus as follows;
"All other birds and beasts avoid him
(the crOcodile); but he is at peace with
the trOchilos, because he receives benefit
from that bird; for, when the crocodile
gets out of water on land and then opens
its Jaws, which it does commonly
towards the west, the trochios enters its
mouth and swallows the leeches The
crocodile is so well pleased with this SER
vice that it never hurts the trochilos"
Numberless authors have repeated the
story-which was amplified and oddly
distorted by Pliny and the medieval
authors who followed him-but among
modern ornithologist, at all events, it has
received but little credence, though 1t is
mentioned by many of them Their posi-
tiOn in the matter is well eXemplified by
Gould in his Birds of Asia" where
though in the background Of his plate
representing the Egyptian plover (PIuvia-
nus /Egyptius) he shows two of these
birds entering the mouth of q crocodile,
and in his letterpress he discusses the
question whether this bird or the spur
winged plover (Hoplopterus spinosps) is
the trochilos of HerOdotus, he tells us
that he only inserted the figure of the
crocodile to illustrate an oft-tod tale, and
that the point as to which bird was in
tended is of little moment, since in all
probability the story is not founded on
truth.
Mr.. Cook has, however, thrown new
light on the question, and has supplied
US with direct evidence that a bird,
which he Identifies as the spur-winged
plover. does enter the crocodile's mouth
1t appears that in the year 1876 he no
ticed some crocodiles and several of the
birds, (which are called by all the ma
tives Of the Nile valley crocodile birds,
on very large sand bank near Derr, the
capital of Lower Nubia, and with his
brother-in-law, the late Mr. J. E. Hedges,
determined to watch them. The follow
ing is. his account, in a somewhat con-
densed form, of what happened: For
this purpose, during the dark hours, we
had a small pit dug on the western side
of the large sand bank in question, and
about the peep of day the following morn
ing, we ensconced ourselves in the pit.
We watched patiently until
noon, when two large crQcodiles came out
of the water on TO the bank, and appa-
rently were soon asleep. Several croco-
die birds commenced fitting over them,
and through our field-glaSses we watched
one bird, saw it deliberately so up to a
