Our boys, while doing some good work,

the action OF their umpire. He was the
most partial umpire that ever umpired

not be clouded with such disgraceful
judgments.

Ors,le Resents Captivity by killing on Its
Young.
1t has been claimed by observers of
birds that some of the feathered tribe
viii feed their young II they are Gagged,
and II they fail after certain time to
release them they will bring them
poisoned weed to eat that death may
end their captivity. A few days ago,
at the Holstein ranch, says the Carson
New Appeal, the children captured
nest of three young orioles, and they
were Immediately Gagged and hung in
tree. The mother was soon about,
calling her young. and ina little while
brought them some worms. She con-
tinued feeding them regularly for some
days without seeming to pay much at.
tention to persons about. But on Sun
Jay came the tragic ending that de-
monstrated the theory relative to birds.
She brought them a sprig OF green on
Sunday morning and disappeared. In
less than an hour they oil died. The
sprig was examined and proved to DO
the deadly larkspur, weed Tint will
kill full-grown cattle. The little crea-
lures lay dead in the cage and slightly
foaming at the mouth, victims OF their
mothers stern resolve that her off,
spring should die by her own act rather
than live In captivity.

A Diamond Wedding.

An event at all times sufficiently rare
to create interest, and more especially
in this country, has taken place in the
small village of Gloignes. in the depart
ment of the Disc, says Paris CORE
spondent. An old couple, M. and Nine.
Andry, amid the rejoicings of the whole
parish, celebrated recently their dia-
mond wedding. The husband first saw
the light in 1910, and his wife was born
five years later. The cure who offici-
ated on the occasion OF the golden we'd
ding of this happy old pair presided
again. NJ. Andry is still hale and
hearty old man, and hopefully looks
forward to still some years of married
life, although his spouse is somewhat
feeble, and required the stalwart arm
of grandson, who is a non-cemmis-
stoned officer, to lean on.

POOLING THE vuLTuREs.

Mistake.

But the Birds Soon Found Out Their
Mistake.
Some sports recently took place at a
station in Upper Burnah, one Of the
events being what is popularity known
as Victoria cross race"-that is, the
competitors have to ride some distance,
taking two or three hurdles on their
way, to point where there are ar
ranged number of figures, shaped like
human bodies; then they dismount, fire
round of blank cartridges, pick up a
dummy each, and race back, says Pear
sons Weekly.
In this case, after the sports were
over, the dummies were left on the
ground, and in about half an hour after
the ground was deserted noticed vul-
ture settle on the ground close to the
dummies; in about another five minutes
more than 30 had collected.
The birds seemed much puzzled as
they carefully inspected each lay figure,
walking from one to the next all along
the line, and eventually, after sitting in
circle for short time, few away.
The birds must have discovered the
dummies by sight, though l have often
heard that vutures rely on their sense
of smell as well,

Description OF the Cocklebur ana How to
Fight Its Advances.
The cocklebur is rapidly-growing
coarse weed with an irregularly branch
ing stem that grows to height of from
one 20 two feet. The leaves, which are
borne on long leaf stalks, are broadly
triangular in general outline and more
or less toothed and lobed on the bor-
ders. There are two kinds of flowers
horne on separate heads or clusters oil
the same plant. The male or staminste
flowers are produced in rohndish heads
at the top of the stem. After shedding
their pollen these drop off. and the
female or pistillate flowers, which are
in clusters of two or three at the base
Of the male spike, enlarge and form
thick, hard, oblong burs beset VITA stiff,
hooked prickles, and bearing two strong
beaks Mt the upper end. These btirs,
like those Of the burdock, adhere to
clothing and the coat of animals. The
upper portion of pant of cocl<lebur is
shown in Fig. at the top of the stem
the heals of male or staminate flowers
