A STORY FROM TEXAS,
How Smart u Hen Can Be in That
State.


From the Philadelphia Times.
j. G. Wheaton of Texas, has some
very fine breeds of chickens which he
raises for market. While most of his
poultry is all of the darker breeds, he
recently imported fine pair of white
Brahmas, which in due course present.

these little fellows We're good flying size
and were ready prey for hawks, their
white feathers cleaning in the sun and
making them visible from afar. In
fact, in spite of Wheaton's efforts, the
hawks made away with six Of the
young Rrahmas.
One morning, however, after the re-
naming ten had been duly accounted
for the night before, Wheaton was sur
prised. on going to the poultry yard, to
see not one single white chicken. The
Brahma cock and hen were there all
right enough. but instead Of their own
snowy little ones ten bedraggled. cast
off looking black chicks peeped at their
heels. For long time Wheaton could
not imagine what was the matter, but,
by and by, concluded that the little
Drahmas had gotten in the SCOT box
by accident. and that they were still on
hand. though somewhat discolored.
That night, however he discovered
that what he had attributed to error
had been done deliberately and with
wise intent. Before the old Brahma
would let her little ones tuck in for the
night she made them dip and sputter

made every last chick of them pass

wet feathers, and the little fellows
came out perfect black-a-moors. The
old hen circumvented the hawks. how>

SHE KNEW IT ALL.
Was Telephone Expert, and Re.
treated with All HOnOrs Of War.

From the New York Herald.
She looked like the embodiment of
spring as she tripped into an uptown
drug store and asked for the telephone.
She very prettiy said she wouldn't
trouble anyone to ring up her connec-
tion for her-she knew all about it.
please" she murmured. Then she
hung up the receiver and made an ex-
animation of sample of silk she had
been carrying in her purse.
The inspection had been quite COM
pleted and the unappreciated person
at No. 999 hadn't responded to the wire.
Then she rang again and, after a few
seconds, said:
Il want that number I asked for.
Oh. yes, l did. No. 999 Ninetysixth
street"
Then she again carefully hung up the
receiver and tried to look unconcerned.
The clerks We're beginning to look in
terested, and when she finally twisted
the crank again there was an inaudi-
bic litter from the clerks.
She said: Il haven't got my number
yet" She looked very much vexed as
she again hung the receiver on the
hook and began drumming on the table.
One of the clerks volunteered to get the
number for her, but she had grown
frigid and declared that she needed no
assistance. When she rang the bell
again 1t was the signal for another
smothered laugh on the part Of the
force of the store.
mo, didn't get them vets she said,
and her voice sounded very sweet, in
deed. "Oh, there they are. Is this the
-? Is Mr.. - there? Yes, If you
please" A pause. "Oh, how do you do,
Charley? l wanted to call you up be-
fore you got away. Can't go tonight.
Yes, so am I, but I will explain when l
see you. Goodbye"
Then she tripped up to the counter,
laid down Is cents and walked out.
And q clerk who went to the telephone
learned that the shrewd young woman
had been talking to herself only. She
must have got tired of waiting, and
taken that method Of escaping a laugh.

PRESIDENTIAL YEARS.
ON Dow-Jones Co.'s Circular.

From Dow-Jones Co.'s Circular.
There is theory that presidential elec-
tions have a disturbing effect upon busi-
ness In the years In which such elec-
tions are held. An examination of the
records of imports and exports, bank re-
turns and pig iron production does not
bear out this view. Loans by national
banks were larger in 1872 than in 1871; a
trife smaller in 1876 than in 1876: much
larger in 1880 than in 1879: rather less in
1884 than in 1879; rather less in 1884 than in
1883; larger IN 1892 than 1891. Pig iron con-
sumption decreased compared with the
preceding years In 1876. 1884, 1888 and 1892,
but the production was larger in most
presidential years than In years preced-
ing. Exports and imports equalled or ex-
ceeded those Of the contrasting years in
four out Of six presidential pei .ods.

Canton, July 9.-The proceedings Of
the Chicago convention which came by
special wire to Major McKinley's resi-

complacency by the Republcanc an
didate. He apparently found them
neither alarming or disquieting, save
for the thought of the disturbing effect
they might have upon the business Of
the country.

OFFICERS POWERLEss.

The chairman and the sergeant-at-
arms appeared to be utterly unable to
cope with the situation, and Mr.. Vest
went on with his speech nominating Mr.
Bland. The only part of Dis speech
that stirred the crowd was the closing
rhyme:
"Give us silver Dick,
And silver quick,
And we will make Mckinley sick"
This brought down the house and hats
and flags were waved and great up
roar made, which lasted for some min
utes. The band came to the help of the
crowd, striking up 1.-THE Battle Cry Of
Freedom" All the silver delegates rose
to their feet, cheered and indulged in
all the usual manifestations, so that
what at first was but faint wave Of
applause grew into tumultuous storm,
into the thick Of which a Bland banner
was carried through the hall with the
motto: "Silver Dick, the peoples
choice"
BY this time there were three hand
some silver Bland banners unrolled and
carried about with a likeness of the
candidate and the notices. Free sill

try. one Bland" BLAND silver's invin-
chile, irrepressible, irreproachable
