Charter - Illinois Attorney Generals
Latest Move Against Pullman.
CHICAGO. Sept 5.-Attorney General
Msloney has prepared his amended peti
ton in the ono warranto proceedings
commenced by him against the Pullman
Palace Car company. Mr.. Moloney has
served notice on the counsel for the Pull
man company that he will appear before
Judge Gibbons at the criminal court and
ask leave to file the amended petition and
also the information against the company.
which follows the petition, according to
the law governing quo warranto proceed
lngs. The additional charges made in the
amended petition are in relation to the
Pullman company operating a gas plant
and brick works. The charge is made
that the company operates a large gas
pant and furnishes the product to the in.
habitants of Pullman at large profit.
Pullman Water System.
The water system of Pullman is also at
tackled. The court is told that the Pull.
man company purchases its water from
the city Of Chicago, forces the water
through Its own mains and realizes large
profit by selling the water to the Pullman
residents ut n great increase in price The
company also, it is represented. supplies
steam heat to many of the business houses
andapartment houses for pecuniary profit.
This 1t is claimed is in violation
of the charter of the Pullman company.
The owning of a brick plant by the Pull
man company is the next charge in the
petition. The court is informed that the
company has realized large profits from
the manufacture of brick. which opera
non Is deemed illegal and contrary to its
charter. The Pullman farm south of the
town is next attacked. The maintenance
of truck farm by the company is
charged, and this, the court is told, can
not be covered by a charter to manufact-
ure railroad cars.
Liquor ON the Cars.
The sale of liquors by the Pullman
company in It's cars while in trausi [. is
also deemed by the petitioner to ne a
direct violation of its charter rights. This
proceeding, the court is told. is akin to
the operation of dramshop The owner
ship of seventeen acres of unoccupied land
south of Lake Calumet by the Pullman
company is also attacked. The petition
says that this amounts to real estate spec
uiatlon which Is not provided for in the
charter, and is directly contrary to
It's provisions. The general charges which
were contained in the original petition re-
gardlng the ownership OF the town of
Pullman by the Pullman company are
elso repeated. -4Ae- -nstufney Egner1 -yays
that he will be fully prepared to fight any
move that may be made by the Pullman
company IN court, and appeared to have
little doubt that he would obtain on order
OF court to file hisiaformation against the

THE SURGEON BIRD.

Two birds were building a nest under
gentlemans study window. He
watched the birds. They brought round
bits of wet clay in their bills; they stuck
these bits upon the wall. After they
had worked busily for awhile they would
perch on a tree near by. There they
would sit and look at the nest. Some
times they would fly down and tear
away all that they had built; sometimes
a part of the nest would fall down. Then
the birds would stop and think how to
build it better.
Right in the middle of the work an &C.
cident happened. One of the birds
stepped on a piece of broken glass; it
cut her foot very badly. But Mrs. Bird
was brave little body. She wished to
keep on with her work; she did keep on
till she was faint and sick and could not
fly up from the ground. Then she lay
down; she closed her eyes; she locke
very sick. The other bird looked at her
anxiously, then he turned around and
gave three loud. strange cries. Soon
several birds came flying about to see
what was the matter. A little surgeon
bird came with them. He looked like
the others, but he soon showed that he
was surgeon. He brought bit of wet
clay in his bill. He ground itstine with
his own little beak, then he spread it on
the birds sore. stiff foot, just as sur
geon spreads plaster. Next he took in
his bill long, green cornstalk, and flew
up on tin waterpipe under the window.
One end of the cornstalk was near the
lame bird. She took hold of it with her
bill, and helped herself up on the water
pipe too. Then he helped her into the
nest.
Poor Mrs. Bird! 1t was very hard to
be sick and to move into half built
house. What do you suppse the little
surgeon bird did nextY He went to work
and helped Mr.. Bird finish the nest.
Then he flew home.-ISunday Afternoon.

asked little Olive Grey. stopping at the
door of Mrs. Trims cottage and peeping
in.
She thought Mrs. Trim would be sit
ting there, but she was not to be seen.
Instead of her portly person Olive saw a
thin little girl, who was washing the
dishes. However, she smiled. and took
a goblet and put it on the table.

she said. filling the glass; land it's as
cool as ice."
Then she handed the glass to Olive,
who said,-
Thank you. Have you come to stay
with Mrs. Trim?" she asked, after a
pause.
Il don't quite know, miss said the
girl. I'm here week on trial. l used
to live at the poorhouse, and I'm just old
enough to hire out. If the lady likes me
she'll take me to bring up. l hope she

TALKS WITH sroTHERs.-No. 2.

Much is written at the present day about
the care and feeding of infants by people
who's. only capability for dealing with the
subject is fertile brain, and whose only
aim is to appear in print; every mother
knows how unsatisfactory and fallacious
such adviceis when she attempts to follow
it. How to feed the baby Is the greatest
problem met with in the happy state OF
motherhood, and upon its solution depends
the health, the happiness and the life of the
child II the mother is able to nurse her
child, the question of feeding is practically
settled; IL she is not, she should be guided
by those who have had successful expert
ence in feeding babies and not allow herself
to experiment with different foods. There
are scores of artificial foods offered for sale,
but the best is none too good for the baby.
Eminent authorities who have thoroughly
Investigated the subject of infant feeding,
and scientists who have analysed infant
foods, unite in pronouncing Mellin's Food
to be the only perfect substitute for mothers
milk. 1t is palatable, nourishing and
strengthening; the weakest stomach will
retain and digest 1t, and the puniest child
will thrive upon 1t beyond the mothers
fondest expectations.
For convalescents, consumptives, dyspep-
tics and the aged, Mellin's Food is also Of
incalculable value. 1t is food, not a medi-
cine, and the system receives the nourish-
those severely i'll Mellin's Food will sustain
the falling strength and promote o speedy
recovery when convalescence has been
established.

A STRANGE VISITOR.

The following story is from "Our
Animal Friends
An American was visiting in England,
and was invited to call on lady who
was not strong and who spent all her
days lying on couch. Soon after the
American called his hostess said to him:
Il expect a gentleman to tea at six
o'clock; would you please set the door
ajar, for he cannot open it himself"
The visitor thought this strange, but
made no remark.
The sitting room was approached by
q long, narrow passage, and presently
the tea service being laid-we heard the
tap, tap of regular tread approaching
the room Then followed decided jab
at the door, and in swept magnificent
peacock No wonder, thought l. that in
the early ages of chivalry the most SOL
emn oath was taken on the peacock.
Our visitor walked straight to my
friend, looking around as if in search Of
something. She produced some fruit
and cake, which he ate out of her hand,
and then pecked up some crumbs soaked
in milk from a saucer on the floor. Iput
forth my hand to caress him, upon which
he raised himself on his toes and uttered
a shrill cry, repudiating all my bland
ishments vigorously.
In the same manner he came every
evening. remaining about half an hour.
His affection for his hostess was evident,
but never got beyond his liberation.
Two month afterward my friend left
Hughenden. subsequently she wrote
to me:
poor Ralph is dead. That stupid
gamekeeper never let him into the cot
tage, nor fed him in the evening, as he
promised me to do. hear from the
little maid you remember. that the poor
bird refused to eat, and would lie for
hours beneath the window, uttering &C.
casionally plaintive cry. At night he
persisted in roosting in the cedar-tree in
the cottage lawn. Becoming too weak
to fly upward, he lay among the shrubs
in the dew, and was one morning found
dead"

Or her treasure hiveward bears,

Where the robins rear their children,
And the humble spider weaves
Wondrous laces fairer. finer

Love the peaches and the pears.

In this orchard old of ours,

Cozy seats and fairy bowers.

morning you would have
declared that you had never heard
sweeter music in your life.
In all the choir, however, no bird
had richer or fuller voice than Dap
sy, whose little brown wife's name al
most rhymed with his; it was Mopsy.
When March came, he was in full
tune, and from that time until mid
summer he sang so Justify that all

give found a place for our nest"
Mopsy announced, one day early in
May.
"Where? wh-e e-re?" trilled her
tuneful husband.
"In this grass-tuft right by the
bushes. If wet weather should set
in, it will be high and dry. You see,
the ground here is raised little
above the level"
otis grand, grand!" cried Dapsy,
springing up into sapling and tril-
ling his most rollicksome strain.
In few days the little house in the
grass was finished, and week later
six dainty eggs lined the convex floor
like so many pearls. Mopsy sat on
the cosy nest like very queen on
throne. The pair were now very
happy, for by and by they expected
to see six pretty bird BARNS in the
nest.
What pity their hopes had to be
blastedl At this point that cruel boy.
David Lenkers-I shall call him Dave
after this-comes into my story. One
morning only day or two after
Mopsy had been sitting on the eggs,
her husband suddenly ceased his
song and cried
"There comes boyl boy"
as he nears" she questioned, in
anxious tones.
mo, he is just climbing the fence
between the meadow and the marsh.
over there by the big willow trees.
Oh! / hope he won't come this way"
"Watch him closely" warned Mop
sy.
The warning was hardly necessary
for Dapsy was just as uneasy about
the nest as his wife was.
"Where is he now?" inquired Mop
BY.
"He's = he's coming across the
marsh" quavered Dapsy. eyes, he's
coming this-this way"
The boy, who was Dave Lenkers,
stalked on through the long grass,
gradually moving toward the place
where the sparrow-nest was hidden.
Presently he came very near.
"What are them sparrows maxim
such a fuss about" he muttered.
"Must be nest somewheres."
"Chep chepl chepp chirruped
Dapsy uneasily, fitting down from
the bush into the thicket. "Sit very
still, Mopsy. Maybe he won't find
you"
"Listen at that bird chirpin', NUT
tered Dave. "I'm sure there's a nest
about"
"He's looking for something in the
grass" cautioned Dapsy. "Chep!
.chep! Don't move feather"
Dave brushed around, peering in
to every bush and tuft OF grass. Pres
emily he came to the tuft in which
Mopsy was concealed. She could see
him through the spears of grass.
Now, OH oh! he was bending right
over her. Then he pushed the grass
aside with his hand and almost
touched her back. 1t was too much;
poor Mopsy became panic striker;
she leaped from the nest and went
futtering through the grass like a
wounded bird.
"Ah" gloated Dave, as he looked
down into the rass-tuft, "a nest with
six speckled eggs. Amt that fine,
thought l guess I'll take 'em."
"Chepl chep! chip-chip!" cried
