A writer in The American Sports man tells remarkable story about a humming bird:
 In front of a window where worked last summer was Q butter nut tree. A humming bird built her nest on a limb that grew near the window, and we had an opportunity to watch her closely. In fact, we could look right into the nest.
 One day, when there was a heavy shower coming up, we thought we would sec if she covered her young during the rain. We'll, when the first drops feu, she came and took in her bill one of two or three large leaves growing close by and laid this leaf over the nest so as completely to cover it. Then she flew away.
 On examining the leaf we found a hole in it, and in the side of the nest was a small stick that the leaf was fastened to or hooked upon. After the storm was over the old bird came back and unlocked the leaf, and the nest was perfectly dry.

WHIPPLE, May 7.-The hop given by the army aud navy union at Whipple on the night of tho 9th in stant was a notable deviation from the ordinary humdrum lie of that quiet little post. It marks an epoch in the history of the union at this place, inasmuch as it is the first of series of such entertainments which the new blood recently In- fused into the organization ia the persons of a number of up to date military representatives has de- termined shall be a regular monthly feature of the garrison hereafter. The union now running up into the thousands in membership in this country is a purely fraternal society. Its aims and objects arc to bring into more intimate association the thousands or reputable citizens who, for various reasons, at some time in their lives, devoted themselves ex- clusiyely to the service of the United States in the army or navy. To be- come a member it is necessary to have an honorable discharge from the regular service, be of good char acter, and an indefatigable type of the genus homo. So 1t may be seen that like the 400 of Prescott it is ex- elusive to q degree. since it gives the glassy eye to the circumambient mo- body. It is not 6 serect society, hence it does not come under the ec- clesiastical ban. 1t eschews politics, as tending rather to disrupt than to foster amicsble relations. In short, it is a society that merits respectful racopnition.

until about dark, when the physi- cians pronounced his case hopeless, and he died just about midnight. All that medical skill on the part of his physicians and loving care on' the part of his friends could suggest was done for him without avail. From the very first, he seemed to realize that his wound was fatal one, and SO stated to his friends. His brother, T. G. Norris, was called to his bed side within few minutes after he was shot and remained with him till the end came, and is com pletely prostrated over his death. Before be died he requested that his body might be sent back to Green Forest, Arkansas, and buried besides his parents, and in accordance with this request, his remains ara being embalmed and will be bi-ped cu tomorrow afternoons tram. -......
 Deceased was only 2S years old, and although he had resided here less than year. he was universally respected aud liked hy sll whe .kJiew w. him. His brother and other relatives. both here and abroad, have the most profound sympathies of the commit nity in their sad bereavement, F.
 Owing to the indisposition of T. : C. Norris, as well as on account of his family, J. c. Herndon, his Iaw partner, will accompany the remains east. =
