How . Cleveland Lady ITo:1 Tic Cons
Ge2ce OF Seven Pretty ScE2sters.
Some years ago, before Mrs. Stowe
had written the story CT Hum, tie Son
of Bug" lady living in Cleveland
proved that these dainty bits OF color
and light can be tafaea b love.
Sitting at her chamber window, she
saw the birds flying back and forth with
bits Of moss and dried grass IN their
bills, and, herself unseen, she watched
the building Of their nest. L trumpet
vine covered one side CT the house, and
it was in this that they chose the site
for their home Itrnay have been while
looking at the view from their dwelling
that they found q sugar and honey bank
on the window ledge. They evidently
liked that, for they boldly tasted, not
minding Mrs, B. S presence in the least.
Every day they found their sugar in
the same place, AID Mrs. B. there too.
She would talk softly and lovingly to
them, and they began TO think she must
be an excellent giant. When she gave
them sugar in her hand they would fly
to it, and eat it, and after few weeks
she could give them honey from her
lips.
They grew so tamo that they felt free
to indulge their natural curiosity in re.
gard to the belongings Of her room.
Birds are very curious little creatures,
and, when not afraid, will examine
every thing they sec.
During these weeks tho mother bird
had been sitting on her nest, and had
hatched five wee brides. Then there
was great scurry:ng about TO feed those
five hungry bodies. The sugar bank
was more drawn upon than ever; but 1t
was better than some, because it never
failed.
Birds grow fast, AMI it was not long
until the mother and father birds felt it
safe to take their little flock On visit
to their good friend.
Do YOU not suppose She was happy
when the seven came flying into heI
room, up to her lips and all about her:
showing their trust and love CT her:
The young ones were never wild. They
could be taken in the hand, and would
fy there of their own accord.
If Mrs. 3, had friend; in the room the
birds were SLY, and would not come IN;
but persons standing at the door could
see them, and many did. Seven hum
ming birds, tame enough to come to one
eat from cne's rnouth, examine what one
holds, are unusual enough to make OK
wish to see them. Through all the sum
mer they continued to show their dainty
ways to their tanner, and she rejoiced II
their freedom.-Santa Claus.

Character end TIE Face.

Children speak OF making faces"
at one another, when they twist their
features into al expression OF their
feelings Of disgust, Or scorn, or hatred.
This kind Of facc-,naking is an act OF
the will; but there is a steady making
of faces by the character which IS in
voluntary, and yet which has more en-
during results than the other. Day and
night the character is chiseliDg away
at the features of every face, and men
and women show to others what kind OF
facc-naking is going on in their
natures. Ii We would have better-look'

THE APACHE MURDERS

Committed by Renegsdes from the San
Carlos Observation-Disclosures, Citizens and
Cavalrymsn in Hot Pursuit of the MUIR
derers, Vino are Making for Old Mexico
Murder Not the Worst of the Rene
gades' Crimes.
DEMISG, Y. NJ. Dec. 9.-News from
the scene of the murders in Arizona
committed by renegade Apaches from
the san Carlos reservation. state that
the troops from Forts Bayard and
Grant are on the trail and hat it tends
to the line of old Mexico into the Sierra
Madre mountains. the stronghold of
the renegades for years. BY treaty
soldiers can cross the international
boundary to pursue the Indians. but
the country is so rough and mountain
Gus hat it is very improbable that they
will ever get within Il hundred miles of
the murdercrs.
In all. six murders are reported, the
first crime being committed on last
Monday on Eagle creek, when three
brothers named Hinton and Il man
named Searles were killed and horri-
bly, mutilated.
On Tuesday a farmer named Merrill
and his 1~6-year-old niece were slain in
the road six miles west of Ash Springs.
The girl had been outraged and the
body was fearfully m%utilated.
The scenes are on the borders of the
reservation ard many miles distant
from telegraphic communication, SO
that complete particulars are not OBJ
tainable. There were six Indians in
the party. two mounted and four on
foot. but it would be an easy matter to
steal horses for the entire party.
\ party of miners from Duncan. sri-
iona. left in advance of the soldiers,
heavily armed and well mounted, and
a. last accounts were following the In
dams within two hours.
These crimes DO not indicate an out
break or serious trouble, being the
work OF Il few murderous bucks, whose
action is condemned by the reservation
InGians. who are cOntented.
All remaining cavalry at Fort Bay
ard were ordered out yesterday to
make a forced march into Arizona for
the purpose of cooperating with troops
already out. including those from Fort
Grant, to assist in the capture of the
band of renegade Indians. 4 report
was also telegraphed to Fort
Bayard hat the citizens posse
under the leadership of the Park
brothers, which had taken the
trail Immediately after the discovery
of the murders, had engaged in a fight
with the Indians near Clifton. Ariz.,
and that one or more of the posse had
been killed. This is not verified. hut
was telegraphed to the commanding
officer at Fort Bayard. The depart
mem is exerting every effort in the
movement of troops to cut off the band
from escaping across the border into
old Mexico.
