1t is rare occurrence for animals in
wild state to select man for CON-
panion, or evince any gratitude for
fuvors, but there is an occasional excep-
ton. A boy in Maine killed snake that
was just in the act of robbing a song
sparrow's nest, and ever since the bird
has shown its gratitude in a wonderful
manner. When he goes into the gar
den the sparrow flies to him, sometimes
alighting on his head or shoulder, all
the while pouring out n song of praise
and gratitude. 1t will not leave the
garden, but all the time he is there the
bird hovcrs around him, with every
manifestation of love.

n Visitor Wore on Her Hat.

n Visitor Wore on Her Hat.
A bridal couple, who put in several
days recently taking in the sights Of
the capital, enjoyed themselves i'm
mensely until the day preceding their
departure. 1t then occurred to the
bride that she had not called upon
"Dear Fanny" who had been her
chum during her days at the seminary.
Now, Fanny was still enjoying single
blessedness, and this may have had
something to do with the anxiety Of
the bride to call upon her maiden chum.
George demurred feebly, but at last
consented to pay formal call. The
bride dressed herself in a fetching
gown and placed upon her saucy head
a Partisan dream in the way of hatI
The hat was one of those indescribable
creations of the milliner's art, mass
of flowers with bird or two partially
concealed In the foliage, so to speak.
The pair went gayly forth, and in a
hotel coupe were soon at the door of
Fanny's residence. Their cards were
taken and they were ushered into the
drawing-room. While waiting the
coming of her friend, the brides attenr
tion was attracted to large cage con-
tanning a splendid parrot. She CHR
ruped cooingly to the imprisoned bird,
and wished she might take him out of
his cage and caress him. George re-
marked that he looked tame enough,
and suggested the opening of the door
of the cage. Suiting action with the
word he opened the door, and the re-
leased bird calmly walked forth, and
strutted about, blinking his beady eyes
knowingly. The bride, with usual
calls of Poll, pretty poll" coaxed the
bird toward her, and poll proceeded to
climb up the rounds of the chair upon
which the lady was sitting, and perched
herself upon the arm of the chair. The
parrot uttered cultural cries of Polly,
polly" this word seemingly comprising
her entire vocabulary.
The bird accepted the caresses, and,
apparently, all was serene; but. with
out an instant's warning, she uttered a
scream of rage and flew at the lady's
headgear, alighting fairly thereon,
and then for few minutes the air was
filed with flying feathers and bits of
flowers, while the atmosphere was frac-
tlred by screams from the bride and
discordant cries from the parrot.
George attempted to come to the res
cue, and had his face badly scratched
for his pains. The lady finally shook
the bird loose from the flower garden
she was wearing upon her hat and
made one wild dash for the front door,
followed closely by the bridegroom.
Once on the pavement they became
somewhat composed and. determined
to return to their hotel to repair dani-
ages. They did not tarry long enough
to see Dear Fanny"
The sudden wrath, of the bird was
caused, George thought upon reflections
during calmer moments, by the
fact that amid the flowers in his wife's
hat there nestled stuffed Caroline
parrakeet, which the parrot took to be
n real live rival, and proceeded forth
with to deInolsh. The bride is now

TwENTY.NINE DANGEROUS AGE.
Man Commits More Crimes Then
Than mt Any other Time.

Man Commits More crimes Ineh
Than mt Any other Time.
1t is n singular fact, yet one substan-
tiated by statistics, that most crime is
committed in this state by men 20 years
old. This is not only true of the lesser.
but also of the greater crimes, although
man is presumed to be at that period
of his life not only in zenith of his
physical, but also in full and complete
possession of his mental powers, with
complete appreciation of right and
wrong and their respective conse-
quences. This condition is q problem
which has not been solved by the stu
dent of criminology, and one which is
made the more complex by the fact
that the ages of 81. 81 and As years near
ly equal it, with the intervening years
showing far less percentage of crime.
1t is indeed peculiar that the criminal
tendency should be so strong at 20 with
no such inclination, so far as criminal
statistics show, in as great degree for
the succeeding 16 years, and then an
other outburst of the animal in man.
This condition is found to be true by
actual figures, and as all statistical
computations at which average condi-
ton are sought to be determined are ar
rived at by this method, so may the
student of this subject, as well as the
insurance magnate who bases his rates
on the general average of losses in pro-
portion to the risks taken, and does so
with full safety, employ it in solving
the problem before him.
Charles X. Baker, chief clerk to Super
intendent Lathrop, has made this SUBJ
iect one of close study and will soon
have completed table showing this to
be true. He has already completed one
relative to murderers serving life sem
fences in the penal institutions, and its
figures bear out the general conclusion.
He offers at this time no explanation
for this, but hopes after he has ex-
hausted the subject, So far as the
presentation of figures is concerned,
to be able to set forth reasons why
these years should be productive of the
most crime.

the various murderers who are serving
life sentences were when they commit

HOW To SAVE LIVES.
Hints for boys and Girls Who Know
How TO Swim.

A boy or girl never knows at what
moment he may be called upon to save
the life of friend from drowning, espe-
cially in these days of swimming and
boating. He should therefore prepare
for the emergency by practicing life
saving devices every time he goes in
swimming. A little ca.mness of mind
and a very little skill will often serve
to sustain sinking swimmer until
help may come.
One of the methods used by the Eng
lish life-saving service Is shown in the
picture. 1t may at first sight look diff
cult, but it is one of the easiest of all
the methods. 1t is necessary, of course,
that the boy who saves person in this
way be able to swim easily and readily
on his back. Any boy who can swim

AnthropoiogicaI Expedition 60 the
North Pacific Coasts
New York, March l2.1 Morris
X. Jessup, president of the Amer
lean Museum of Natural History,
has provided funds which will be
used by the anthropological de-
partment of the museum, under
the direction of +. W. Putnam,
for systematic exploration of the
peoples of the North Pacific Coasts
between the Amoor river, in Asia,
and the Columbia, in America.
Three expeditions will be fitted
out, whose work, carried on in the
State of Washington and in Brit
ish Columbia, at Behring straits
and along the Asiatic Coast, will
covered period of 6 years. The
first of these parties will leave for
Washington and British Columbia
toward the end Of May. 1t will
consist probably of four men un-
der DR.. Franz Boas, assistant cur
'ator of the museum, and will in
clude Hiram L. Smith, assistant
in the museum, who will have
charge of the archaeological in
vestigations.
The expeditions to Siberia and
Alaska, whose personnel is not
yet decided upon, will probably
start this fall and next spring re-
spectively. The chief object of
these expeditions will be to in
vestigate the origin and early his
tory of the American race, and to
trace its relations with the races
of the old world in the north.
The relations between the Ameri-
can and Asiatic peoples have
been a much-discussed problem,
and it is proposed to go over the
ground in a more thorough and
systematic way than has ever
been attempted before. This is to
be done before the completion of
the Siberian railway and other
civilizing influences have destroy.

NEWS FROM HAWAII.

AT the time of the sailing Of the
last steamer which arrived from
Honolulu at San Francisco, it was ex-
pected in the island that an American
protectorate over Hawaii would soon
be proclaimed,
This will be news or a somewhat
startling nature to Americans, but
there is no telling what the annexation
syndicate will force the President
to do.
Nothing would be a surprise. The
American people are not in the secret,
as the people of Honolulu appear to be-.
Another item of Hawaiian news is
to the effect that Hawaii has an in
come tax law which went into effect
on July /. The first section reads as
follows:
From and after the LIST day of July.
| 1897 there shall be levied, assessed. col
lected and paid annually upon the gains
profits and income derived by every per-
son residing in the republic. and by every
person residing without the republic, from
an property owned, and every business
trade prOfess sion on or n ,Sa mP 2sSgIbc
and by every servant or officer of the re-
public, wherever residing, tax OF / per
cent. on the amout so derived. provided:
that while the gains, profits or income OF
any such person who resides within the
republic or of any servant or othcer OF
the republic wherever residing SHAH not
have exceeded the sum OF A,OOO Tor the
preceding twelve months, only so much OF
such gains profits or income as exceeds
the sum of $1,000. shall be liable to such
tax"
In another part of the act it is stip-
ulated that incomes not exceeding ST.
500 shall be exempt from taxation. AS
the Louisville Courier Journal points
out, this is to all intents and purposes
as much a tax on thrift as the act that
was nullifed by our Supreme Court
was alleged tosbe. 1t is liable to all
the objections of that act, including
the exemption of a certain amount Of
income from taxation altogether.
If the annexation of Hawaii would
nullify the law, it might be some COM
fort to the opponents of the income
tax. most of whom are enthusiastic an
nexationists. But it is not probable
that it would do so. The decision Of
the Supreme Court only related TO the
power of Congress to levy an income
tax. This tax was imposed by the
Legislature of Hawaii, and the annex
alton treaty does not annul it. 1t is
conceded by everybody that State Leg
islatures may enact income tax laws.
Whether Hawaii is to become a State
is not yet apparent, but there is the
existing law, with which it would ap-

THE SILVER MARKET.

The Wall street bullion jugglers are
sending out some queer reports OF the
silver market these days. They are
filing the financial columns OF the
press Of the country with new low
price records" which these very bull
lion jugglers are able to create to or
der. by aid of their partners in the
great gold bunko game in Lombard
street, London. 1t reminds one of the
fact that ever since the Wolcott BIZ
metallism commis7'on has been prom
inent in Europe, the slick gentlemen
who compose the British money power
have been bringing all their forces to
bear to depress the price of silver bull
lion, in order to impress upon Presi-
dent McKinley's commission an al
legged "obiect lesson" as to how
worthless" and unstable" silver is,
which, while silver is demonetized
practically the world over, is an easy
thing for these gold gamblers who con-
troll the worlds finances to do.
But in this country the bullion man
ipulators of Wall street are too anxious
to do the bidding of their employers
and correspondents in London, and
they are indiscreet in the manner in
which they over-state the case against
silver. For example, in yesterdays
papers they went so far as to state
that there is practically no demand"
for silver. This is not in accord with
the following table covering the eX-
ports of silver in ounces, not including
100000 Mexican dollars, for the past

tariff man on principle, he can not
stomach the new Dingley tariff as 1t
deals with wool, one Of the prime ar
ticles, which Republicans say should
be amply protected.
In this interview Judge Lawrence
goes into the subject exhaustively and
most interestingly, and he concludes
with this statement;
1T never does any good to deny the
truth or state an untruth. will not
do, either. When the worlds fiocks
shall be replenished, and in view of
the conditions then to exist, and the
great decline in the worlds prices
since the act of 1867 and the act Of
1888, and since the Mckinley act Of
1890. I MUST SAY THAT THE NEW
TARIFF ACT OF AUGUST "a, 1897,
WILL BE LESS PROTECTIVE AND
MORE RUINOUS TO THE WOOL IN
DUSTRY THAN ANY WOOL TARIFF
WE HAVE EVER HAD. THE WOOL
GROWERS ARE CHEATED IN THE
NEW TARIFF. The pledge of the
most ample protection for wool has
not been fulfilled
And why? To sum up Judge Law
rence's exhaustive statements, because
the men who framed the Dingley bill
were actuated by motives of cupidity
and truckled to the interests with the
most money. In plain words, the wool
growers were sold out to the big East
ern wooden manufacturers. And in
this is found the keynote to the whole
Infamous tariff measure which robs
the people for the enrichment OF the
trusts.
