The Emotion of Grief In Animals,

Dutch was a brown retriever of ad-
vanced years. Curly was reputed to be
Scotch terrier, but his appearance sug
gested some uncertainty in his descent
Dutch was chained to her kennel, and
Curly, who enjoyed his liberty, evinced
his friendship by frequently taking
bones and other canine delicacies to his
less fortunate friend. One morning
Curly presented himself at the house,
evincing unmistakable signs of grief by
his dcmeanor and his whines. A visit
to the kennel, where poor Dutch was
found lying dead, showed the occasion
of Curly's unhappiness. We buried
Dutch decorously under vine in the
garden and supposed that Curly would
forget the incident, but we were touch.

Photograpi,ing the Growth of Plants.

Photographing has lately been applied
to record the movements Of growing
plants, and it is not necessary to add
chat some curious results have been OBJ
tanned. A photograph of a growing hop
vine, taken at intervals Of 60 seconds,
shows that the movements Of the young
stems consist Of succession of irregu-
lar circular and elliptical curves, which
vary every minute, even as to direction
Photography has also proved, contrary
to the old accepted idea, that plants
grow continuously and uninterruptedly.

pendence valuable not alone because it
drove from our shores a foreign inva-
sion, not alone because it established
government by a written constitution,
but because it gave to the spirit Of
American liberty and American virtue
the opportunity to erect a broad home
Of constitutional liberty through which
prosperity was attained and no tyrant
could breathe it's atmosphere
Wise as were the fathers who framed
our constitution, deeply laid in political
wisdom as were it's foundations, it
would not be worth the paper Gu which
it is written but for the fact that it gave
to us the spirit Of liberty that has never
died in the bosoms Of Americans

In passing by tie criminal court
building the other day. said Luther
Latin Mills, II recalled, among my
memories somehow connected with it,
that Of a remarkable leap for liberty.
About Is years ago prosecuted a
young fellow for tho crime of burglary
He was convicted and sentenced to pris-
Oh for term of six years. After SEN
tence, as he was being conveyed by a
deputy sheriff from the courtroom to
the Jail, across the passage connecting
tho two buildings, which l have often
regarded as Bridge of Sighs, the
young burglar suddenly sprang over the
low hand railing, which was then the
only protection of the bridge, landed on
his feet IS feet below, and, recovering
himself, made bold dash for liberty
He started Oh run north Oh Dearborn
avenue, pursued by deputy sheriffs and
policemen, and was finally recaptured
in a barn not far from Lincoln park.
When they brought him back, his face
flushed, his eyes flashing, his shirt col
lar thrown open, he looked like a young
hero Of romance. A few days later he
was taken to states prison, where he
served his term.
Passing over the Clark street bridge
there REQUIRED to me the memory of an
other leap-one for life. One evening
about five years ago on approaching that
bridge found it open and a crowd of
about l., 500 men and women in a state
Of excitement. A policeman informed
me that woman had fallen into the
river. WHATS being done to save herr
demanded. Before the officer had a
chance to reply a young fellow rushed
through the crowd, threw off his coat
and vest, put his hands together and
shot into the water. He caught the
woman as she was going down the third
time, struck out for tho shore, and both
he and she were landed in safety
II heard a man say to the rescuer,
WHAT'S your name?' 4 have no name
in which the public is interested, he
replied. But you re hero,' urged the
man, and your name deserves to be
made known The young man shook
his head and peremptorily refused to d.
vulge his name. I happened to get a
good look at the fellow, and there came
to me a sudden flash Of recognition. He
was the same one who had made the
leap for liberty from the Bridge Of Signs
'Things went better with the young
fellow after that, " continued MI. Mills.
'He got on and prospered and is now
a we'll to do commercial traveller. -

Embarrassing For Her.

in their usual state of ease and were
exchanging the greetings of the sea-

aisles. All this was very annoying
to the little woman who saw time
slipping swiftly by and knew that
she was due at a luncheon in Har-
lem. She became somewhat perturb-
ed finally in her effort to buy every
thing she needed, and she did not
observe with that accuracy which
she might have shown. Finally she
rushed up to a clerk who had taken
the stand in front of the corner and
said breathlessly:
II want a box of face powder, if
you please
Then tho supposed clerk turned
and said, with courtesy and amuse-
ment struggling for the mastery'
