lt Was Carefully Trained. but tho Lady-s
Plan Miscsr-.ed.
There is one member of congress
whose wife owns an intelligent parrot,
which she brought from Mexico, and
whose talking talents she has Gevel-
oped with great assiduity and no little
success. Of course Jones-that's lot
his name, and the nom de guerre
stands merely for convenience sake as
the true name OF the congressman re-
ferred to-Jones was a candidate for.
reelection in November, and ~forseeing
his triumphant ~vindication at the polls,
the affcctionate Mrs. Jones especially
trained her parrot to shout "Hurrah."
till the windows ratified whenever
Jones name was mentioned in his pres
ence. On the evening of the election she
arranged &c have the bird hung in the
reception room. where her husband
was going TO receive his friends
and al o tie returns. With fond cx-
pectaLc. Sine looked for the news to
come that iIcr husband mad been elect
ed by q stunning majority, and the
parrot shouting in the wild frenzy of
his ~boundless glee, "Hurrah for
JonesT"
Alas, that the best laid plans OF men
and mice gang aft aglee.
When the fateful moment came, a
distressed messenger, with flushed face
and disheveled hair, burst into the
sitting with the announcement:
You're beaten, Jonesr'
It was the parrots cue. n he hadn't
forgotten his careful training.
"Hurrah for Jones!' shouted the
green imp on his perch, and everybody
In the room stood aghast at the audac-
ity of the biped.
Mrs. Jones was the first to show a
sign of animation. and it manifested
itself in a volcanic eruption of temper
directed against that cute and inno-
cent Mexican parrot, which effectu-
ally put q quietus on his exhilaration.
The poor bird covered in the cor
ner. In half an hour the tide had
changed.
You're elected, Jones" shouted the
last messenger.
"Shout, Polly. shoutr' cried Mrs.
Jones in a transport of delight.
The bird looked at her sideways with
q look of disgust.
"Oh, hang Jones!' he muttered,
turning his back TO her.-Washington
