BIRDS BUILD HOUSES.

Really Artistic Manner

And Then They Decorate Them in a
Really Artistic Manner.
There has just been discovered by
government ornithologist a tribe of
birds in the island of New Guinea which
show themselves excellent architects
by building each for himself little
house on the ground.
OF course, the house that the bird
builds is not an elaborate pile of brown.
stone or even bricks. 1t is made merely
of twigs and pebbles, kept together by
the Intervening of the tall, dried grass
peculiar to the wild fields of New
Guinea. But it answers its purpose
just as well in keeping off the rain and
sun, and no wind can knock down the
house, owing to the ingenious manner
in which the bird selects a site.
The birds have received the temporary
name of garden birds, owing to the
fact that they fence in little plot
around their houses, for no other APP
parent reason than to let other birds
know that the inclosed plot is private
property,
When the male garden bird takes
mate he selects some level spot in the
fields where he finds a tree not more
than two inches in thickness at the
base. With this tree as center pos

There is one man in the United States

lesson. not only for his own good, but
for salutary example and warning to
others of his same class. That man is

This Is the Year to smash 1t.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The simple question with the Inde-
pendent Republicans Of PENNSYLVANIA
those who can afford to have a con
science in political matters-is whether
they will seize the present opportunity
to smash the Machine. or whether they
will wait till some other year. There
are two ways Of going about this.
One way is to fight the Machine
"within the lines Of the party" by vot-
ing for its candidates for auditor gen
eral and state treasurer aud thus to
confirm its evil power.
The other way is to vote for the Read
ing ticket, and thus smash the Machine
beyond the possibility of repair. This
would not only make new deal in
Pennsylvania politics all around, but it
would wonderfully clear up the political
atmosphere in the commonwealth. 1t
would show that the Republican party
in this state has also large body of in
dependent members who prefer the pub
lie cause to partisan considerations, and
who will not tolerate the perpetration Of
iniquities in their name.
1t is for the Independent Republicans
to make the decision i'm November in
this great issue Of the Commonwealth
versus Machine Misrule."

PREJUDICES OF ANIMALS.
Their Likes and DisIiises Are Very
Often UnaccOUntnhIe


The likes and dislikes of animals are
unaccountable. Some horses take vio-
lent prejudice against certain men, even
though they are treated kindly and
though the mans moral character is
fair. Between the cat and dog there is
violent antipathy, which. however, is
not infrequently displaced by mutual
respect, and even affection in excep-
tional cases. The elephant hates dogs
and rats. Cows dislike dogs. and so do
sheep, for good reasons. But horses
like dogs and, what seems stranger. are
particularly partial TO bears. On the
other hand, horses loathe and detest
camels and refuse to be decently civil
to them after long acquaintance. They
even hate the place where camels have
been, which seems to be carrying race
prejudice 10 an extreme.
Evolutionists are accustomed to ex-
plain these instructive feelings as sur
vivals of ancestral enmities dating from
the days when one race proved upon
the other. This would account for the
natural enmity of cows to dogs. for
when COWS were wild they were obliged
TO defend their calves from bands of
predacious wild dogs. But why should
the horse like dogs? 1t is but the other
day that the wild horses organized to
defend their colts from wolves on our
western prairies. What could the an
cestral horse have had against the an
ceStral camel of a million years ago?
Above all, why should the horse approve
of the bear? 1t must be that the horse
has u dormant sense CT beauty and of
humor. The ideal of the horse is grace
combined with strength. He dsap-
proves from the bottom of his nature of
the hopelessly vulgar, awkward and un-
esthetical camel. The bear, he sees al
once, though clumsy, is unpretentious.
truthful and not devoid of sense of
humor. The dog he recognizes as good
fellow, companionable and unselfsh.
He therefore forgets his ancestral pre-
dacious habits. A strong bond between
Ike dog and the horse is that they are
both fond of sport, whereas a camel
would not go an inch to see the best race
that was ever run.-Hartford Courant

A Correct View of Dasch.

From the Wilesbune NcwsdcHler.
Paul Dasch halls from the lower end
of the county, Upper Lchigh. 1t is un-
necessary to call attention to the pa
trotc way in which for lifetime he
has discharged his duty as loyal Demo
crat. OF German ancestry, the Sturdi-
ness which characterzes his actions is
natural. He has worked with his party
for years and was never d0wncast even
when the storms Of defeat broke over
the stalwart ship. He believed that the
day Of redemption would come. His
courage in this respect was as great as
was his faith in Democratic principles
Now he looks upward and sees the skies
cleaning with promise that to him is
assuring. His nomination was stroke
OF genius. The call to him to accept the
prothonotarys place on the ticket was
an expressive one and he realized its
significance. lie answered it promptly
and the spirit that he will throw into
the pending canvass will be magnetic in
its influence.

Lightning has been very fatal in the
region of Fort Ogden, Fla, over eight
persons having been killed. Many
Strange incidents are related, the most
extraordinary being a story from across
the Kissimmee river told there recently.
Henry Myers was killed by lightning
there while in a field, and buried the
next day. The second. day a heavy
thunderstorm arose. His grave
was struck, the lightning tearing open
the grave, throwing the coffin out and
tearing it open. 1T was thus found
two days afterward by some relatives
and the body reburied. The body was
not disfigured by the last electric bol.,
but the coffin had been torn no pieces,
the body being left on top of the up
turned earth with the splintered coffin
fragments around it. This is vouch-
safed for by several people from that
section.

Making New Faces.

Half century ago child with the
most distressing facial deformities was
allowed to grow up a dread to himself
and an object of pity to all his asso-
riates. 1t was not deemed possible to
correct these ills; indeed. nobody gave
itany thought; the vretched victim suf-
fered out his miserable remnant of life,
and that was all there was about it.
Within the past few years a branch of
surgery that is of the utmost impor-
tance to humanity has been receiving
careful attention. And as the art of
restoration stands at the present day,
hideous objects that were formerly
looked upon as incurable and there
fore inevitable. All manner of changes
are now made in the personal appear
ance. The harelip and distorted
mouth are treated scientifically, and
the face is restored to its normal condi-
ton and even greatly improved by the
operations which these blemishes rem
der necessary. Crooked noses are
Strengthened, and ears that extend out
from the head are skillfully put to
rights with the most astonishirgly
gratifying results. Flat, bumped or
depressed noses are made symmetrical
and even beautiful. OF course. the
treatment is more successful upon the
young than when undertaken with
those who have reached maturity, but
even late in life lis quite worth while
to have some of ones blemishes re
moved and to present to the world as
good an appearance as possible.

Women on Shipboard.

A current newspaper calls attention
to the old superstition among sailors
that women on board ship bring ill
luck. In the days when sailing YES
sells were more numerous, it says, and
Jack had wider opportunity to select
among the floating homes one that
most nearly conceded with his ideas
of comfort and safety, he was apt to
shun those whose captains shared the
glories and comforts of the after cabin
with better half.
Nowadays steam has made the
opinions of sailors of as little account
as sailors themselves are, but the
prejudice survives are, but the preju-
dice survives in the minds of the few
old salts that have not fallen to the
rank of coal shovelers and cleaners of
paint.
To the superficial observer, this OBJ
lection to the presence Of women at sea,
made lby class of men who, when
ashore, are far from showing indiffer-
ence to feminine charms, would seem
to be particularly absurd and unrea-
sonable piece of nonsense, but the
Coast Seamen's Journal, which is a
paper not given to the fostering of mys-
ticism, says that there is more than
superstitution in the old belief.
Close attention to happenings on
the ocean, it declares, will prove to
any one that women do bring ill luck
on shipboard, not, of course, through
any dark working of the supernatural
powers, but by increasing the natural
severity of captains, and by their read
mess to give evidence in behalf of their
husbands against which, in court of
law, the word Of maltreated mate or
sailor is not apt to be of any effect.
A surprising number of modern in
stances are given in which sea TRACE
dies of one sort or another have oc-
CURED on ships that had the captain s
wife on board.
The Coast Seamen's Journal does
not suggest the advisability Of hard
and fast law forbidding such compan-
ionships in the merchant marine, but
it says that real evils frequently result
from them and intimates that the only
remedy is an extension of the privilege
now enjoyed by commanders to minor
officers, and possibly to the men.
The idea, apparently, is that there
is safety in numbers, view not to be
dismissed as altogether fanciful. At

The Bicycle Threatened.

This country has witnessed so many
revolutions in methods of locomotion
that he is bold man who ventures to
declare what may not happen in mat
ters Of that sort The steam locomo-
tive is much younger than many men
now living, and there are many who
predict that it will be back number
before many more years have passed.
The predictions of the general substi-
tuition of electricity for steam as a
motive power are becoming more
frequent and more confident. This
generation will probably see their full
fillment in large measure. And now
comes from no less noted seer than
Thomas A. Edison that the bicycle is
in danger of losing something OF its
wonderful and rapidly acquired popu-
larity. Mr.. Edison believes that there
will soon be.on the market light and
noiseless motor bicycle which will re-
tail at 800 or less, and says that when
the new machine appears it will make
the bicycle take second place as rapidly
as the bicycle has displaced the horse.
There are now many makes of horse
less carriages, and they are being i'm
proved constantly. They are still SO
expensive, however, that their use is
very limited, and they are seldom seen
outside of the great. cities.
Such a motor-vehicle as Mr. Edison
expects would certainly cut deep into
the bicycle business, but at present
the bicycle moves ahead conquerine
and to conquer. And no matter what
may come the bicycle will remain with
us for the convenience, comfort and
Joy of mankind, even though some
tangled thing should capture a
part of it's present constituency.-At-

Goat Devours Greenbacks.

The treasurer of Michigan town
ship accounted for the disappearance
of $400 in greenbacks by declaring
that goat had devoured the bills. A
post-mortem examination showed that
the statement was true. The four
footed epicure had come across the
township funds in an iron pot under
the treasurer's house and made haste
to enjoy the first mess of greens Of the
season.
It has become the practice to charge
deficits and disappearance of public
funds to extravaganza, defalcations
and other forms of official misconduct
but in view of the experience of this
Michigan township would it not be well
to find out if there is not some other
explanation Of reduced or empty treas
uries? The fault may not lie SO much
with tariffs, expensive legislation
and dishonest treasurers as with lean
and hungry goats.-Bufalo IN. ~

previous years. A conservative esti

are on every hill and in every valley,
and the nights sounds are most piteous
from the crying of the calves lost from
their mothers. Every morning thou
sands are seen travelling from the great
swamps along the Snake river to the
Gros Ventre hills. The game warden
says:

Railroads Conquer China.

The Chinese government is slowly
but surely pushing forward the rail-
road from Tientsin to Pekin, and it is
expected that soon the traveller will be
able to go by rail from the seashore to
the gates of the mysterious capital
This will add about ninety miles to the
124 of the road from Tientsin to the
Kaiping coal mines, which now con-
stitute the railway system Of China.
The spell of prejudice has been broken
and several other railway enterprises
are now on foot. The chief of these, a
great trunk line from Pekin south
westerly to Hankow on the coast, a
distance of some 400 miles, has al
ready been started, with small gov
ernment subsidy, but its rapid con-
struction is not to be expected. A
short road from Shanghai to Woosung
is also in progress.
