Eccentric Abner Kirby.

The late Abner Kirby of Milwaukee
was a man of many eccentricities Of
character. AS landlord he puzzled
his guests by naming his rooms in
stead of numbering them, and new
conner was frequently startled at the
order given the pell:boy to SHOW the
gentleman up to Gehenna. Though
fond of ardent spirits he swore in 1876
that he would not take another drink
until Tilden was elected, and he did
not. During the COS he lost $500,O00
in wheat and later made $3.50, 900 in
thirty days in the same kind of specu-
lation. One afternoon soon after this
he tossed $4,000 in bills in his wife's
lap as she sat in the hotel parlor and
said: "Here, nanny, 60 and pay off
the mortgage" His clothes were in
variably made of imported Scotch
goods, and, as he always wore his
clothes until they had become thread
bare, they were in strange contrast
with the big diamond in his necktie.

The Shooting of Ney.

"As to the confessor, said Marshal
Ney, "leave me alone. Ihave no need
of black coats" At this last phrase,
one OF the two grenadiers in charge,
rising, said to him: "You are wrong,
Marshal" and, showing him his arm
ornamented with several chevrons,
added: Il am not as illustrious as
you, but am also veteran. Well,
never have l borne myself 50 boldly
under fire as when I had previously
recommended my soul to God"
These few words, pronounced in
tones of emotion and solemnity by this
colossus, appeared to make deep inn
preston on the Marshal. He ap-
preached the grenadier and said to
him with gentleness, tapping him on
the shoulder: "You are perhaps right,
my good fellow. That is good advice
which you have given me" Then
turning toward Col. Mont gny: @What
priest can cause to be summoned"
"L'Abbe de Pierre, cure de st. Sui
pice." "Beg him to come. will re-
ceive him after my wife," The coun-
sci of the old soldier had been listened
to. @Aa
Ney refused naturally to place him.
self on his knees and to allow his:eye
to be bandaged. He only asked Com
mandart Saint-Blas to show him where
he was to stand. He faced the platoon,
which held their muskets at "the re-
cover" and then, in an attitude which
l shall never forget, so noble was it.,
CAIN and dignited, without any swag-
GER, he took off his hat, and, profitin g
BY the short moment which was caused
by the Abundant de Place having to
place himself on one side, and to give
the signal for firing, he pronounced
these few words, which I heard very
distinctly: "Frenchmen, 1 protest
against my sentence, my honor"
At these last words, as he was placing
his hand on his heart, the defamation
was heard; he fell as if struck by light
ming. A roll of the drum and the
cries of "Vive lie Roll" by the troops
formed in square brought to close
the lugubrious ceremony.
This fine death made great impress
sion on me. Turning to Augustus de
la Rochejaquelin, Colonel of the Gren-
adiers, who was by my side, and who
deplored. like myself, the death of the
brave DIES braves, said to him:
"There, my dear friend, is a grand les
son in learning to die"

THE CARE OF THE CANARY.
Every Little Defender Should Heed These
Instructions.

Of all birds to keep in the nursery
canaries are certainly the incest. They
are very affectionate, and can be tanned
to almost any extent. In buying a
bird be sure to 90 to a respectable shop
or you may be cheated. The writer
heard of one lady who, to her disgust,
discovered she had bought sparrow
painted yellow, thinking it a very
handsome canary. She had given him
large price for it..
The best cages for canaries are those
made of mahogany or any other hard
wood. Be sure never to buy one made
of fir or other soft and porous woods,
as they harbor insects. Cages are
really best made chiefly of wire: these
are light and neat and easily kept
clean. The food and water vessels
should always be OF glass or porcelain,
and placed outside the cage, SO as to
let the bird have the whole of the in
terror to himself. For one bird the
cage should not be less than twelve
inches in height and eight inches in
length and breadth. Each cage should
have two perches, not under one an
other. The best food is canary and
turnip seed (the smaller summer rape
seed), in the proportion of one-third
or one one-fourth of the latter to two
thirds or three-fourths of the former.
A little variation in their food occa-
sionally will be found conducive to the
health and we'll being of birds. Oat-
meal or greats now and then, mixed
with their seed or given in the little
tin box with which cages are usually
furnished will be useful; chickweed,
groundsel or lettuce leaf should be
given three or four times week, ex-
cept in breeding cage. A small
lump of bay salt or piece of old NOR
tar is good for them to peck at, and a
slice of apple, pear, plum or a cherry
will be grateful to the birds if not too
often repeated.
1t is most important that canaries
should be kept dry, clean and warm,
and their owners must not forget that
these charming little birds are foreign
ers and therefore cannot always bear
exposure to d1'aughts in which hardy
American birds thrive.
When keeping pets children should
try to realize the kind of country and
especially the sort of climate natural
to them. 1t will then be easy to sur
round them with what is best suited to
the nature of each.
For instance, remembering the
bright, hot sunshine to which birds
from distant lands are accustomed,
it would be we'll to place the cage in a
nice, safe, warm place daily.
But the poor little bird must not be
left to SILVER when the sunshine has
passed; it is better to move his cage
before that moment. This should not
be forgotten by the young mistress or
master who wants to keep pet healthy
and Happy.

Accidents from a Legal View Point.

TO the non-legal mind the term ~ac-
cident" would appear to be easily de-
fined, but the late Lord Chief Justice
Cockburn thought not and on several
occasions insurance companies have
sought a definition in the courts of
law. 1t has been decided that a sun
stroke is not an accident, but that in
jury to the spine through lifting q
heavy weight is one. Even if physical
ailments contribute to accident it is
covered by the policy.
The relatives of a man who, while
bathing in shallow water, was seized
with a fit and suffocated, sustained
their claim, as did those of man who,
when similarly seized, fell under a
train and was killed. Again, a person
having fallen and dislocated his shout
der was put to bed and carefully
nursed but in less than month he
died of pneumonia. The connection
between that complaint and dislo-
Gated shoulder is not at once visible
but on the ground that the restless
ness and susceptibility to cold produced
by the accident led to the disease
which killed him the relatives were
held to be entitled to the claim.
1.-THE influence of Intoxicating liquor"
has been authoritatively defined as
Influence which disturbs the balance
of mans mind or the intelligent ex-
ercise of his faculties" and injuries re-
ceived while in that condition are not

proper place, without exercising due

Arthur Dunn: The past three
months has been extremely dull in
the House, but the Minnesota mem
bers have been making something of
a record, far as opportunity offered.
Tawney, McCleary, Kiefer and Flet-
cher have all been stirring around,
and have worked themselves to the
front. They have been here long
enough to accomplish something, and
when they are returned for the next
term they will be of still greater
value to their constituents. The
Republican leaguers at Denver
declared for silver, and demand
ed such legislation as will maintain
the parity of the two metals. That is
what I understand to be the Repub-
lican idea. What is wanted is the
largest use of silver consistent with
financial stability, and without going
to silver monometalism. I do not
know of any Minnesota Republican
in Congress who does not favor that
proposition.

MORE TROUBLE ON HAND.
BIZ The Associated Press.

CHICAGO, July 23.-As soon as the pre-
sent strike at the stock yards Is over the
officials of the stock yard company may
turn their attention to a new fight they
have shelved for the present-the term
inal charges on stock receipts at the yards.
The rule levying a y tax has been in
vogue only since June 1 OF the present
year and It has caused among the ship
pers to the market as much trouble as the
strike has caused h stock yards
officials. Conservative commission men
assert that il has already driven stock from
the Chicago market to other markets.
The plan is a new one and commission men
say II was created with only n idea, to
make money at the expense OF the farmer
for people who have s23,cJO,0O in the con
pany. May IL, the stock yards company
notified the railroad company that they
would make the same trackage charge on
live stock cars, both loaded and empty
passing over the company's tracks, and
that charge was fixed at about s1.20. The
railway people replied by notifying their
agents TO place a terminal charge OF y on
each car.

TUCKER ENCOURAGED.
Believes That His Bill to Elect Sena.
tors by Direct Vote Will Pass.
BIZ The Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-Representative
Tucker of Virginia, the author and cham
pion of the resolution for a constitutional
amendment to elect United States Sena-
tors by direct vote OF the people, which
passed the house on Saturday, is sanguine
that the senate will also pass the resolu-
ton and the necessary three-fourths OF
the states will give their assent to make 1t
effective.
"There will be no difficulty of getting
the ''assent Of the states" said Mr.. Tuck
or. At present, with A votes, We would
need the assent of 81. The assent OF IA is
assured in advance, as IL state legisla-
lures had formally resolved in favor OF
the change up to two years ago, and three
more since that time. When the matter
is submitted to the people, states in favor
of the amendment will be recorded and it
will be re-submitted year after year until
the necessary three fourths are secured.
''In the meantime while the States are
giving this assent, the amendment is
practically in force, as many States are
nominating their Senators at State con-
ventions. Illinois started the movement,
Michigan has recently followed and tho
practice will soo become universal"

ENDED IN DEATH.
A FaithIess Sweetheart Causes a
German to Suicide.
I'M The Associated Press.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 23.-A bad
on North Vogle street last night
caused neighbors to set about discovering
the cause. The odor was traced to the
shoe shop OF j. Haas, and when the
door was burst open the .proprietor's
body was found swinging by the neck
from the ceiling and black from decompo-
sition. Hass had not been seen about the
place since Thursday, and IL is supposed
he must have hung himself then.
There Is supposed to be some romantic
cause for the act. Haas left his afli-
anced BRIDE i'm his native city Of
Luxembourg, Germany, and came to
America, expecting when able, to send for
her. When, in May last, he ne had ac-
cumulated by self denial and hard work
$50, he sent IL to her, bidding her come
and they would be married at once. The
bride to be did not come and the lover did
not hear from her, although he wrote
and wrote again.
An answer came last week, however,
from Paris, and was written by a man
who said that the young woman bad be-
come his wife and that her former lover
must desist from his addresses.
Then Haas killed himself.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
Nephew Of Archbishop CIeary Dies
Under Peculiar Circumstances.

CHICAGO, July 23.-The coroner was
called upon this morning to investigate
the rather mysterious death Of Thomas
Cleary, nephew Of Archbishop Cleary Of
Kingston, Canada, who has been en-
ployed as bookkeeper in q wholesale cabi-
net hardware establishment on Franklin
street.
Cieary was found by officers staggering
along LOOMS street, between Madison and
Monroe streets, last night. Thinking he
was under the influence Of liquor, the OFF,
GERS called a patrol wagon and Cleary was
taken to the hospital where he died soon
afterward.
physicians thought death might have
resulted from conclusion of the brain,
a no marks of violence were to be found
anywhere ON the body. 6feary's fandiady
said he had been a most exemplary young
man, but had been in rather poor health
for some time. He was % years OF age.
