Quite recently. while at his Irish country
home, Carton. in the county Kildare. the
duke was severely thrown from his pony
while attempting to leap a ha-ha or
sunk fence. His arm was fractured by
the fall, and he remained an invalid for
considerable time. Hardly had ne re-
covered from this untoward event than
he was knocked senseless by blow of
a cricket ball. The ball was struck by
his cousin. Lord Helmsley. and the I'M
lucky cricket match occurred at the
country seat of Lord Feversham grand
father of both boys. On the whole. her

In the beginning there were those who

women should not give in to the belief

was the reason why colored woman

1t was too bad, she argued further, but

NEGRO PRODIGY.
Though Uncducnted He Is n Lig h Ing
Mathematician.

Robert Gardhire is negro, and an I'M
educated one, but when it comes to fig
urcs he can't be stopped by any mathe-
matician in the world, says the Angus
ia Chronicle. He is a humble resident
of Augusta, and is employed as a la
horer at the Interstate Cotton Oil COM
pany. In multiplication Gardhire is
as quick as thought. Before the aver
age person can set the figures down
with a pencil Gardhire has given the
correct answer, and yet he cannot say
how he does it.
He was asked what was the sum total
of 80 times CT, and without repeating
the figures to himself Gardhire an
swered offhand: 1868" "How much"
asked one, 'is sol times 52?" Without
stopping a second Gardhire replied:
-'16,032" And thus for over half an
hour numbers were thrown at him and
he gave the correct multiplication like
flash. In the multiplication of frac-
lions the man is equally proficient,
and there seems no limit to his powers,
which are almost occult.
Gardhire cannot remember when he
first became aware Of his power, and
does not even know how he discovered
it. He says that when the figures are
given to him he sees their answer i'm
medintely. Simply by glancing at a
long line of figures he can tell imme-
diAtely what their sum is.

AMERICAN SPARROWS.
Interesting Members of the Family
in the Northern States.

Interesting Members of the Family
in the Northern States.
The song sparrow, perhaps the great
est gladdener of the earth in North
America, is almost everywhere, and its
song is among the sweetest and most eX-
hilaratiEg that can be imagined. ITS
back is reddish brown streaked with
gray. Its head is reddish, with six black
lines along it. On the breast is some
thing like a spot of white. Its song
is short but very much like that of a
canary. 1t seems to like the company
Of human beings, and nests in the
bushes OF the open fields, and even near
the houses, when not molested. Many
Of its nests are built upon the ground.
1t lays clay-colored egg, spotted with
brown and purple, and often breeds
twice in q season. There is no either
bird we should more care for. 1t loves
the water, and is inclined to make its
home along the creeks.
Another of the kind is the vesper
sparrow, sometimes more TECHNICAL
described as the "bay-winged bant-
ing" HIS greatest song is just before
sunset. when his notes make the whole
da-kening earth seem brighter. In
some localities the vesper sparrow is
known as the "grassfinch." Il IS about
six inches long, with bay feathers If
the wings and some white feathers in
the tail.
Next comes the ground sparrow, or
ground bird" which every schoolbcy
nows. It is a small, gray:sh-srotted
lird. and makes its nest on and keeps
close to the ground. 1t has sweet note,

FORMER TRADE MONOPOLIES.
When Corporations Were Much
Worse Than They Are Now.

Worse Than They Are NOW.
APPRENTICES became no better than
serfs and slaves. They were not merely
pitilessly fined and brutally punished;
they were often left in ignorance of the
craft that they had purchased the right
to learn. In that frightful social and
moral revulsion following the long and
devastating wars of the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries the corporations
became more determined than ever to
maintain their industrial arstocracy
and monopoly. They refused to admit
any trade less ancient and honorable
than their own to the lights and priv
ileges of the law; they soiled themselves
by contact with no person of illegiti-
mate birth; and in their savage and re-
lentlcss pursuit of persons engaged in
unauthorized traffic they invaded the
homes of the contrabaDd workmen, con-
fiscating both their tools and the hidden
products OF their toll, leaving them and
their families destitute and starving.
To such absurd lengths was the crea-
ton of corporations carried for the pro-
duction of new taxes and new places for
court favorites that occupations like
teaching of dancing, the selling Of flow
ers ard the catching of birds were or
ganized and homogeneous occupations
like the hatmakers' and carpenters
were divided and subdivided beyond the
comprehension of the modern mind.
But despite the ingenuity of lawyers
and the vigilance Of armies of inspect
ors, the lines Of demarkation could moi
be drawn SO sharply as to avoid con-
hicts of interests. The makers of felt
hats quarreled with the makers of cot,
ton hats. The spinners who had pur-
chased the right to use hemp quarreled
with those who had purchased the right
to use flax. The shoemakers fought
with the cobblers that reproduced more
than two-thirds of an old shoe. The
cutters that made the handles of knives
fought with those that made the blades.
The relations of the makers of wooden
Porringers and the makers of wooden
spoons were equally belligerent.-Pop

HARD FIGHTERS IN LAW.
Ciients Dislike Being Told That Their
Cases Arc Poor.


A"Clients love hard fighter and the
onlooleers are impressed with his zeal"
saws Richard D. Doyle in an article on

Magazine. "In my own experience 1
have had cases where / advised my
clients not to sue because was sure
they had no chance, and. although they
followed my advice, instead of employ.
ing other counsel, they refused to pay n
reasonable fee and in one case left me to
INV the court costs. And have seldom
advised client TO compromise or sub
nit to arbitration that l did not dis
please him. 1t requires moral courage
to advise one against his inclinations,
but it is sometimes lawyers sacred
duty. Whatever may be said as to its
morality or true wisdom, yet must say
that I regard this aggressive and parti-
san spirit more conducive to modern
success than profound Judgment, for
have seen lawyers succeed chiefly by
reason OF it in whom the logical faculty
was not at all conspicuous. In speak
