A DISGUISED member of the ways
and means committee makes complaint
which foreshadows one great obstacle
to the tariff reform. Says he: every
person insists that the interests in his
district continue to receive protection
The complainant is Democrat, and the
persons of whom he complains are
southern Democrats, who, before the
election, were tariff reformers on prin.
ciple. Before the application of the
principle of protection to southern in.

EGG-STEAlING HENS.
Fowls That PurIoin the Contents of Their
NeiChbOr's Nests.

Fowls That PurIoin the Contents of Their
Neighbours Nests.
In Capt. Bendire's Life Histories of
North American Birds" the hen of the
Canada grouse is reported as a con-
frmed egg-thief. A number of these
birds were observed in captivity to
rob one another's nests frequently.
Two hens had their nests near to-
gether, about two feet apart, and as
each laid every other day, one nest
would be vacant while the other was
occupied. The hen that laid last
would not go away until she had
stolen the nest-egg from the other
nest and placed it in her own.
A hen was once seen to attempt to
steal an egg from another nest twenty
feet distant. She worked for half an
hour or so, but did not succeed in NOV
ing the coveted egg more than eight
feet-the way being uphill. The egg
escaped her and rolled back foot or
two so often that she gave up the task
in disgust. go
One evening the observer found one
hen on the nest, and knew that she
was beginning to set, as all the other
hens had gone to roost. Slipping his
hand under her he found three eggs
the nest-egg, an egg she had just
laid, and one stolen from neighbor-
ing nest.
He took two out and held them be-
fore her, when she placed her bill over
one and tried to pull it out of his
hand. AS he refused to let her have it
she placed her bill over the remaining
egg and pushed it back out of sight, as
much as to say, "You have two. an6
that is all you can have" She pleaded
so hard for the other eggs that he
took them away with much reluctance

DIGBY BELLS HEART IS TOUCHED AT THE
MORGUE.
l had desire to visit the morgue on the
Bellevue grounds at the East River and
Twenty street. On pleasant after
noon, along with a couple Of companions,
strolled about the grounds of the old stone
house Of suffering, where so many Of our
profession have cashed in their checks, and
then we accepted the invita- ion of Mr.
White, the morgue keeper, to visit the house
Of the dead. He was an exceedingly cordial
and atfable sort # fellow. There were
about twenty dead men and women on the
slabs, some tagged and ready for the next
boat to the potters field and others await
ing Identification.
1--WE have a pretty fair collection of
finds today" said the mnrgue keeper in
his matter of fact way.
he then went on to tell us how many un-
known dead we're brought 20 the morgue
from the two rivers and New York Bay last
year. l think he said that during period
Of twelve months that had just passed more
than 400 bodies had been buried in the pot
ter's field without Identification.
Among this number were men and wo-
men, old and young, with the wrecks of a
great city in the majority While we were
talking upon this CHASTITY subject just out
side the morgue door an old woman came
tOttering up.
"Hello, Auntien said the morRue keeper.
The old woman bowed but did not speak
and entered the morgue.
"Who is thatP' l asked.
why, that's an old caller Of ours. Been
here every day for nearly two years now,

just then an attendant rushed up and
said: ''Auntie has tainted over No. 49,"
We found that No. Is was a rather
oomely young woman who had been taken
from the river that morning.
II guess she has found her daughter at
last said the morgue keeper, as he lifted
the unconscious form of the old woman and
carried her outside.
1t was, indeed, pathetic scene, and one
| shall never forget.
On the bosom of the dead woman lay a
bunch of flowers, placed there by the
mother who had at last ended her search for
her lost daughter.
The morgue keeper told me that the old
woman's child had gone wrong and had dis
appeared from her home. The mother
somehow had premonition that she would
destroy herself, and so continued her visits
to the morgue.
"Do you have many scenes like this oueln
asked the morgue keeper before leaving.
That's only one of thousand" he re-
piled. DIGBY BELL.

DE WOLF HoPPER's SAD EXPERIENCE.
New YORK, Feb. Ill remember it as
though it were only yesterday. I accom-
panied my parents and my grandfather on
a picnic over on the palisades, near Ho-
boksn. That was a great picnic ground in
the days of my youth. 1t was a Fourth Of
July, and after several hours Of great fun
] went in search Of more sport. / had just
one pack Of frecrackers left.
While roaming about found my veneer
able grandfather asleep alongside fisher
mans boat that had been hauled we'll up
out Of the Hudson's reach. BY my grand
fathers side lay bis mammoth tile. The
spirit of mischief was strong in me, and
placed my last pack Of firecrackers in the
capacious NAV of the upturned stovepipe.
Then l gently stole around my grandparents
TO make sure he was still asleep. 1 lit the
fuse Of those crackers.
In a second there was an explosion.
To be sure, there was nothing left Of my
grAndtather's hat. and he had seen me max
ing of. was suddenly seized with weak
ness at the knees as my enraged grand
parent made after me. He seemed 70 be
endowed with the speed Of a race horse, and
could hear him shouting after me:
stop, tell youl Stop, or you'll suffer
for this"
tried TO run faster, but my foot caught
in a closely woven bunch of briars, and
down / went. My grandfather seized me
by the collar and lifted me bodily off the
ground.
"Now, you little vagabond. I'll make you
remember this Fourth Of July as long as
you live"
He carried me over to tree trunk that
lay near by. First he sat on the trunk aud
used his hands to correct me. then he got
tired Of holding me and laid me across the
truck, face downward, and welded a birch
rod. He spanked and whipped till could
no longer yell for mercy. | begged forgive
ness and he let me Off.
l will never forget that day as long as
live. Ic was really the most pathetic few
moments of ali my life.
Did my father renew my grandfather's
medicine, Well, he heard what my grand
father had done and called me to his side.
/ expected to get another spanking, but he
evidently decided that l had had enough
for he only said:
you will have to buy your grandfather
a new hat"
And l did. saved up pennies for a long
time and my father purchased the tile.

friends.
