More Parrot Talk.

The 2hillipShurg Dispatch and o.
borne Farmer havi.,HS had their at
tention called to the parrot like ma
ture of their editorials have char"
their plan of getting them up. Last
week the Farmer told it's readers that
"The new-found principles of demo-
cratic faith, government by iDjunc-
ton, antitrust Legislation, and arbi
tration in behalf of labor were entir-
ely overlooked by Mr.. Bry an during
the four years in which he served in
congress. During all that time, in
which he had opportunity to indicate
IN practical way his friendship for
these subjects, he scarcely opened his
lips in regard to them"
And the Dispatch wisely wags it's
head and states that "Mr. Bryan
made no effort during bis four years
in congress to obtain legislation on
the subjects which he now SO uproar-
ously supports as the chief features
of his political faith. He had not a
word to say about arbitration, gov
eminent by Injunction, ANTITRUST legis-
lation, or any of the other subjects on
which he now appeals to the public.
But of course he indorses all Of them
now that the party advocates them"
Time changes mems ideas. We
have a copy of the Congressional
Record for 1890, coatsining speeches
by Mr.. Mckinley on free silver, and
IN these speeches he talks very differ
emily from what he does now.

DEADLY SHOTS FIRED BY SUN.

In One Instance IN lnMOcent Man wa
Sentenced to Be Hanged.
In recent paper appeared an ac-
count of strange accident In which
man was killed by the discharge o! 6
gun while lying asleep on a lounge
in his room, the weapon being DIS
charged by reflected rays OF the sun
falling upon the cartridge CHAMBER
of the firearm, says the Cincinnati I'm.
qlirer. Since the publication OF the
story correspondent from York, Pa
writes concerning the accident ana re-
fers to a similar case, in which, through
the efforts of clever Cincinnati law
yer named G. {. Wallis. the person ac-
cused of murder and sentenced to DC
hanged was set at liberty, the elrc'lm-
stantial evidence on which he was con-
victed being entirely exploded D! Il
witnessed demonstration as to how the
accident really occurred. The YORK
correspondent referred to volume l."
of the Criminal Law Magazine, page
COZ, on which full account Of tn" case
appears. The case was that OF the
state of Tennessee against Avery, triea
in Henry county, that state, and Is one
Of the most remarkable in the history
Of criminal jurisprudence. In June
1887, Charles Ensley, the cousin OF a
man of the name of Avery. was Hlile"
in his room while lying on lounge
about o'clock in the afternoon. me
weapon which caused the death was a
small rife, sending a 32-caliber Eail
through Ensleys brain. No one Was
In the house at the time but -Ensley.
An empty rifle was found lying on
rack on wall Of the room in when
the killing occurred and the bullet
fitted the tube. Avery was arrested Tor
the crime. as he was the only living
relative to Ensley, and by his death
profited to :he amount Of about $loo'-
900. Avery was tried. pleaded not
guilty, but was convicted OF murder III
the first degree and sentenced to be
hanged. He appealed to the Supreme
court and engaged Mr.. Wallis 20 de-
fend him. The Supreme court remand
ed the case back to the Circuit court on
technical errors. Two mistrals were
brought about and then came the
strangest part of the story. The brit
liant Wallis struck the keynote to the
mystery. In August, 1891, he had the
rifle loaded and hung on the wall. A
white sheet with the form Of a man
marked on it was placed in exactly the
| position occupied by Ensley when
lying asleep, and heavy cut-g'ass
pitcher Of water like the ole found
in the room was placed on the Shelf
above The temperature was 20 de-
grees in the shade one of the hottest
days of the year. . The pitcher acted as
sunglass and the hot rays OF the
sun shining through the water were re-
fracted directly on the cartridge cham
Der OF the rifle. Eight witnesses were
in the room and few minutes after
o'clock puff and a report occurred ant
the ball struck the outlined form back
of The ear in the exact location where
Ensley was shot and the theory of cir
cumstantial evidence went to pieces
The incident. being witnessed ant
sworn to, readily explained itself to tn
! jury.

1t is not fair for cats and dogs to
carry off all the glory. Allow me to
tell two stories from my own personal
experience OF gratitude in a goose. of
humor in a raven. l was walking one
day with a friend through his poultry
yard, when goose hurried up to him,
fondly rubbed its neck against his
trousers, and followed him every
where. He told me that he had once
rescued 1t from being done to death
by its feathered companions, because it
had broken wing. Could any I'M
feathered bipeds have shown greater
affection? May we not say with Wads-
worth:

Alas! the gratitude Of men
Hath often left me mourning"

And now for the raven. l had been
taking duty lately in the Tower for
my friend the chaplain. when my
slumbers were disturbed by the rau-
cous croaking OF a venerable raven OF
unknown antiquity, but, by all ac-
counts, the oldest inhabitant there. BY
his jaunty hopping about under can
mons and shady trees, he clearly shows
that lie considers the entire precincts
to have been provided for his comfort
by a grateful nation. On returning one
day from lunching with the governor,
to whom l complained OF his sleep
destroying noises. found my gentle
man peTched on the back of a garden
chair. l solemnly admonished him OF
his offcnses against the church. He
listened calmly, without sound or
movement. When concluded my
homily, he turned up his right eye to
ME and deliberately winked. I fed
