4Here, chick, chickp' called Harry,
opening the gate of his poultry yard.
He had just traded off small colony
Of rabbits for half dozen fowls, and
he was very proud of them, for they
were beautiful birds. especially Narcis-
sus, the handsome rooster.
He really shone in the sunlight as
he came hopping out, with his scarlet
comb, green tail and navy blue wings
and breast. But think his pretty head
must hold very small brain.
AS soon as Harry let him out for ex-
ercise he stalked straight to the cellar
window and gave it a savage peck. Then
he stopped to crow and then rushed at
it again, f1ercer than ever.
You see, he thought that his own re.
Election in the glass was another bird,
and he wanted to fight with it.
And SO he could not take stroll in
the green grass, nor scratch in the flower
beds, nor even peck at the grasshoppers
and beetles that the hens made such a
fuss about. He only fought his own
shadow till it was time for him to be
shut up again.
I think his brain must be very small
indeed. Youth Companion.

1t is very difficult to indicate the prob
able line Of bibliopegic development.
Only after many vain effort and many
a doubtful struggle do we ever attain
the goal of our desires. Setting our
faces to the future, we must let the dead
past bury its dead, and we must give
up the ifelcss imitation Of defunct
styles. Greater variety is needed, great
er freedom also, such as some of the
other decorative arts have achieved of
late years. The duty of the book lover
is equal to that of the bookbinder.
They must needs work together for the
advance Of the art. For their collabora-
ton to be pregnant the book lover must
educate himself in the possibilities and
in the technical limitations Of the art
Every architect will confess that he has
had many practical suggestion from
his clients, and more often from the
wives Of his clients, and the influence
Of the book lover on the bookbinder can
be even moro beneficial. -Brander Mat

Tho Leg of Mutton Sail.

The simplest and safest rig in the world
is the leg of mutton sail. 1t is the one fit
ted exactly for river work where one is sure
to encounter puffs of some force as ravines
are reached or valleys passed To amateurs
it is the sail par excellence for experiment
ing with, for no matter how many blunders
are made mishap is well nigh impossible.
The leg.of mutton sail has no gaff, nor need
it have boom. There is little or no lever
age aloft, and all the power it has for mis-
chief can be taken out of it by Stacking off
the sheet and spilling the wind. The learn
er might with advantage practice with a
sail of this shape until he becomes prof.
Gent. If he eventually determines upon a
jib and mainsail or yawl rig for permanent
use, he may avoid wasting it by having it
made, over int q stc-m .trysail.

Clipping Their Claws.

One of the hardest tasks that the keep
ers in museums and geological gardens
are ever called upon to perform is to
trim the claws of certain wild animals.
This is necessary, because if it were not
done once in awhile the claws would be
apt to turn into the flesh from lack of ex-
ercise. In the wild state the animals
use their claws so much in climbing, ETC.,
that it keeps them sharp and wears them
down to the right length. In captivity,
of course, they cannot do this, and their
keepers have to resort to all kinds of
tricks to accomplish it. Even our pet
shorten their claws occasionally and can
often be seen scratching on the bark of
trees for that purpose.

Damage to the Cascade Locks by

TACOMA. Wash, June ia cores
pendent at Cascade Locks, Or, tele-
graphs that in that vicinity the luss is
comparatively estimated at $500, 900.
The town was not damaged seriously,
and the losses have fallen On those best
able to stand them-the government and
the Union Pacific railroad. The uncom-
pleted locks on which the United States
has expended over $2.00O,00O narrowly
escaped total destruction. and as it is
the works have been damaged about
100000. The water is still SO high that
ills impossible to tell exactly to what
extent the canal has suffered. The dam
age to fisheries and canneries, including
the loss of time, will amount to at least
$780, ZOO.
Work on the Cascade locks was COM
menced eighteen years ago, and Day &
Day were under contract to complete
the work by March, 1895. The work
was to cost the government little over
$1,000, 900. but now the work will be
delayed several months. The locks
were intended to be 100 feet above sea
level, and the Columbia rose to 145 feet
above sea level. Had the locks been
completed they would have been swept
out to sea. This will necessitate a
change In the plans for the works. and
the post commanding officer is authority
for the statement that the plans will be
remOdeled and the work completed on a
basis of $50 feet above sea level. This
change will make a total cost to the
government tor the locks when COM
pleted about 5,O0O.0 900.

THE Total Loss to All the
Miners in the Country Isstt-s
mated at Over Ten MilIionsE
PITTsBURG, Pa, June 1S.-The settle
ment Of the great coal strike and there
turn to work today of Is, 900 OF the 90, 600
miners in this district has given an
impetus to all kinds of business, and
the situation is more hopeful than, at
any time tor many months. Among the
large plants in this city which resumed
today after long idleness were the Car
bon Iron and Steel c0mpany's works,
divers Twenty-eighth street works,
ShOenburger & Howe. Brown & Co.
The latter has been shut down for two
years and started up in full, giving EN-.
ployment to 500 men. The Black Dia-
mOnd Steel works will also begin opera
tons this week, and the Edgar Thomp-
son Steel works will start as soon as a
sufficient supply of coke is received. At
Mckeesport everything is quiet, but it
Is thought the tube works will start up
soon, as many of the strikers have ex-
pressed willingness to return when
ever the firm was ready to resume.
| At Scottdale the Scottdale Iron and
Steel company's plant resumed in full.
| after an idleness of several weeks.
A well.lnfOrmed authority in the coal
business estimates that the coal strike
| in this district has cost the miners in
wages Sl,S00.000 taking it for granted
that the normal output of the region
had been maintained. In proportion to
the general output, this district mined
| about one-sixth of the coal dug in the
area affected by the strike. With rea-
sonable proportion between the price
! paid in this and other districts, the loss
| in wages alone, the same authority
says. would be over s10.OOO,OO0. Esti-
| mating the gain of the miners by the
settlement of the strike to be 10 cents
| ton over former prices, it will take
| them about year and half to make
up by increase of earnings for the time
they have lost.
