is skilled in the art OF catching flies on
the wing. These he usually pokes urder

he will come and tuck it in between the
fingers and b lmmer it in until it becomes
painful.
He is extravagantly fond Of hazel nuts.
Some meats were hidden in his mis-
tress's hair. He flew upon her head,

sight. Next be fell upon her twist and
soon had her head looking like rats
nest. He finally sat down and plumed
himself, very much at home. He shed a
feather during the process, but caught
it before it sailed far; then, after trying
several different places, opened place
in her hair and hammered that in.
He hoped down on her shoulder and
pecked savagely at her earring; on to her
lap and pounded at her ring, then down
to her shoe which he united, and after
trying to hide the strings between foot
and shoe, gave it up and took another
tour around the room on the chair
rounds. He sometimes flies from head

The pincushion is an endless source
of amusement to him. Pins are scat

ones attract him most but the long hat
pins and darning needles prove stub
born. and no amount of pecking can
draw them out,
Jay had never seen hawk nor lived
long enough with his family to be taught
the fear of one; but one day he saw one
sailing high in the sky and he showed
the greatest terror. screaming and fut-
tering wildly about the cage, his feathers
all awry. The cage had to be removed
to quiet him.
He never tires of company, or of re-
ceiving gifts and accepts everything from
a flower to rag, upon which he immedi.

Jay has humorous side to his nature.
Some doves alighted in the garden to
dine off dried peas. Jay watched them
for some moments, from both sides of
his head, with intense interest, when
without warning he unbottled his shriIl-
est whistle, which in itself will quite
equal a we'll steamed-up schoolboy.
There was great Tapping OF wings. the
doves scarcely able to get under wing
fast enough. Jay screamed after them
and seemed much amused at his prank.
Jay shows great fear of a broom. A
whisk broom placed beside his cage will
drive him nearly frantic. Perhaps he
looks upon broom as natural enemy
because he is such an untidy little
housekeeper. No sooner is his house
freshly carpeted with newspaper than
he begins to tear it full of holes and
tuck things away in them.

was buried deep in the black earth
close by.
1t was just at evening, and in the
gathering twilight the lurid blue
flames that burst from the top OF the
tall chimney flashed unearthly CLEANS
upon the neighboring windows and
house tops.
The scene within the foundry was
weird and almost awful. The swarthy
forms of the workmen, partly lighted
by the yellow glare, moved about like
Tartarian shadows, and the sooty
beams and ponderous chains crossing,
half black, half golden, under the
glowing roof, recalled the engines of
the Cyclops under Mount Etna.
The town clock struck six. 1t was
time for supper. All the men threw
down their tools and ran to put on
their outer clothing.
''Be back in half an hour sharp
cried the forgemaster. "We shall
make the cast at quarter to seven"
"All right, sirw cried the men in re-

coming down to see the work, said
one.
"Yes," said another, "and it'll be
something to open their eyes. There
was never such a bell cast in
the whole State as this one will be"
In moment more only one workman
and the master were left in the
foundry. The former was to stay and
watch the "blast." He had brought
double allowance of dinner, and he
made a supper on what remained.
"Perhaps we can get the Inventor
to stay with you, George" said the
master, laughingly, as he prepared
to go.

man, in the same jesting tone.
"He's been around the works long
enough to know when anything goes
wrong. Hullo! Hullo! l say. Where's
the Inventors' Come here All, there
he isp' And, in silent answer to the
summons, shock haired fellow, with
large gray eyes, and pale, vacant
face, appeared from behind pile of
castings. He had on his back a gray
shirt, much soiled with dust, and he
wore pair of huge pantaloons, held
up by single suspender.
"Well, Mopus," quoth the man
George, slapping him rather roughly
on the shoulder, Suppose you've got
wit enough to help yell if anything's
the matter7"
The young fellow looked stupidity
around and nodded his head.
"Then sit here and look at the fur
mace, and don't take your eyes off,"
The poor lad smiled and meekly
did as he was ordered, just as an
obedient dog would have lain down
to watch his owners coat.
A queer fellow was this "Mopus;"
stupid enough in ordinary things to
need world of watching, but withal
wonderfully fit to watch furnace.
He knew all the workings of the
foundry, by what seemed sort of
brute instinct, though really his
strange sagacity in this was a rem
nant of once bright mind.

SWEET SUNSET.
BY F. TEMPLE LATHE.

The sun receding sinks below
The line of sky and earth;
Roseate lines in beauty glow,
And twilight fingers sweet,
The air with balmy sweetness seems
The night to usher in;
The crescent soft with sunlit beams,
Looks kindly down with smiles.
Sweet sunset thus by unseen hand,
Thy tints are placed on high;
And golden chains link sky ana iand'
In essence pure, sublime.

painted. They have lot of cattle and
horses and an excellent prospect for Il
crop this summer and are evidently
prosperous and happy. Our little visit
was surprise to them. They wanted
us to stay a week, and were greatly dis
appointed when we told them we couldn't
even stay Tor dinner.
We could not help but t...;k what a
fine thing it would be ii cur coal miners
would turn their attention to these
lands, and each secure quarter section
at the earliest possible opportunity.
Ii one-half the ccal miners in the
country would leave the mines and go
on to farms, they would soon be indepen-
dent. and the remainder would have
steadier work and better pay. As it is
now there are too many men digging
coal. The product of the mines is limit
ed to the necessities of trade and COM
merce and can not be increased. Unless
many miners go into other business they
can never hope to change their condition.
There is nothing any more promising in
the future. The thousands of acres of
cheap wild land in South Dakota, Mime
sofa and other places offer one solution.
1t is q practical one. A good Dakota
farm is in the reach Of every able bodied
man. What Cheer, Qa.) Reporter.

AS is quite generally known, 0. Tur-
geon, who lives on the Missouri river
bottom but short distance from the
southern line OF Brule county, put down
an artesian well for irrigation purposeh
! the early part Of the year. This week
Mr.. TnrgeOn was at Pukwana and was
interviewed by the Press. We found Mr..
Turgeon in a very happy state of mind.
Just about as tickled a man over the re-
suits OF his work as it has been our
pleasure to meet. When asked to tell
us something relative to his we'll and
work In irrigating, Mr.. Turgeon in sub
stance said:
have all S-inch we'll, 6s6 feet deep,
with an 19-inch flow. When completed
it cost me just $1,000. l had never had
any experience in using water on crop
but had no hesitency in trying my
hand at it; and assure you no man
could be better pleased with wha. have.
put in 90 acres Of corn on field
which has a gradual slope from the
point where have my well. construct
ed two bitches four feet wide running
the length of the field at one end and
one side. Then when l was ready to
apply the water to the growing corn. or
thought the corn needed it, | tapped the
bitches letting the water run in small
burrows through every other row. 1t
took me but five days working alone to
irrigate the whole 80 acres. OF course
the water running so long on the field to
reach the further end, the. ground near
the bitches became thoroughly saturated,
and my neighb0rs and others told me |
would ruin my land by letting on so
much water; but anyone can see that the
corn in this part of the field has the
greatest growth. lhave never seen such
a corn field in all the days Of my life. 1t
looks like a forest. Some of the stalks
are ten feet high and as thick through
as mans arm. think at very con-
seryative estimate will get 75 bushels
to the acre from the field as whole.
Others who have seen it place the yield
as high as 100 bushels.
Did you irrigato anything else Mr..
Turgeon? Yes spread the water over
my hay land and my hay is simply
magnificent. l had alkali hay that
stood 5 feet a inches high and cut blue
| joint and red top that went 4 tons to the
acre. ! also irrigated my garden and
with the same tiattering results. Some
of the vegetables have mammoth size.
l believe have pumpkins that when they
get their growth will be as large as a
barrel.
Mr.. Turgeon further says that from his
crop he will be able to pay for his well
this year, and that he now has as good a
thing as he wants.-Pukwana Press.
