ings Destroyed.
C1NcINNATI, Aug. 2s.-The Big -Four
depot and adjoining buildings were
burned during the evening, causing o

spread with destructive results. The
big depot was bounded by Third and
Wood streets and Central avenue. 1t
was entirely destroyed, with damage to
all the surrounding property, including
the street car lines passing the vicinity.

An Effort to Revive q Custom In England

The Earl of Denbigh has introduced
into the house of lords a bill providing
for marking foreign goods, which is
practically identical with the measure
which was recently laughed ont of the

energies heretofore have been devoted

but the commons are certain to reject

Liberals believe the existing merchan-

Of all shades Of political belief are

to help British traders and manufactur-

ENGLISH BIRDS or SONG.
h List Includes Some Twenty-Five, Will
the Nightingale First.

The List Includes Some Twenty-Five, with
the Nightingale First.
In round numbers the chief song birds
of England amount to about %, among
which the nightingale reigns chief and
supreme. 1t is almost impossible to
frame any accurate table OF the compar-
alive beauty and merit of these varied
and happy songsters. but, the attempt
has been made by an earnest student Of
nature, who devoted many years to this
one express subject, and some of his
notes are of curious interest.
AT the head of the whole list stands
the sweet bird Of night for mellowness
Of tone, compass and execution and an
Unborn plaintiveness Of melody which is
almost wholly his own. Pre-emfnent,
too, among the beauties of its strain is
its infinite variety, as many as 10 differ
emit beginnings and closes having been
noted In the song Of a single bird Be
ginning, like many o famous master of
eloquence, in a sound Of infinite and
tender s~oftness, he gradually breaks in
to deeper and fuller expression, reserv-
ing all his strength as If for some sud-
den touches of passion and delight, and
then dying away into a fine and deli
cate thread of such exquisite and keen
sweetness as to pierce the very heart.
In the calm stiffness of q summer even
ing this dainty note may be heard
through half a mile Of silent, listening
woodland. Next to the nightingale
come the three happy singers-the sky
lark, woodlark and titlark-each hav-
ing a special excellence Of his own, the
two latter singing both while on the
wing and when at rest, their song being
full of sweetness, variety and swift
changes, and the first SURPRISING even
the nightingale in the rapid Sketches OF
sprightly Joy with which he rises mp to-
ward the blue ether
And, ever rising. wins his liquid way.
Then follow the whole throne of finches,
| headed by the linnet, who stands fifth
ON the entire list and carries or Tin these
days of competitive examination) "a
marks ont of a possible 100 for compass,
execution, sprightltness, plaintiveness
and mellow tone. Far lower down on
the list come the better known and more
popular methodists, the blackbird, the
thrush and the white throat, the reed
warblers and the robin-who, by the
way, during the silent autuninal days
deserves a whole column to himself.
To these, however, must be added the
blackcap, who, for beauty, power and
fiutelike brilliancy of song, excels all
other of these happy minstrel but the
nightingale himself .-Quiver,
