ONE BOY PUMMELING ANOTHER
inherent Views Taken of the Incl

Street Car.

That men may look at the same
thing very differently, each according
10 his own temperament or habit, was
shown on street car passing a house
upon whose doorstep one boy stood
pummeling another. They were both
small boys. The boy who was being
pummeied stood wedged as far as he
could get into the angle formed by the
door and the side of the doorway. He
was making no effort to defend him
self except to cover his face with his
arm. while the other boy pounded him
as hard as he could, which. however,
was not hard enough to do any great
damage, says the New York Sun.
OF three passengers, mental impress

they watched the boys while the car
skipped past, one was evidently dis

boy forgetting himself il passion and
striking another little fellow repeat
eddy as hard as he could was distress
ing sight.
Another man looked on quite undis-
turbed by the sight. In fact he smiled
as he looked. He didn't worry over the
boy who was crouching in the corner
without resenting the blows, and the
efforts Of the other little chap were
amusing rather than otherwise.

GOOSE WAS A GOOD BOAT.
The Solitary Fowl Became NoIun-
teer Transport for Ducks
Adopted Babies.

The following remarkable instance
the lower animals is narrated by Rev
c. Otway, says the New York Wit
ness:
AT the flour mills of Tubberakeena,
near Clonmel, while in the possession
of Mr.. Newbold, there was a goose,
which, by some accident, was left soli-
tary, without mate or offspring,
gander or goslirgs. Now, it happened
as is common, that the miller's wife
had set number of duck eggs under a
hen, which, in due time, were incu-
bated; and of course the ducklings, as
soon as they came forth, ran with
natural instinct to the water, and the
hen was in a sad pucker-her materni-
ty urging her TO follow the brood and
her instinct disposing her to keep on
dry land.
I'm the meanwhile up sailed the
goose and with noisy gable, which
certainly (being interpreted) meant
Leave them to my care she swan up
and down with the ducklings, and
when they were tired with their
aquatic excursion, she consigned
them to the care of the hen.
The next morling down came again
the ducklings to the pond, and there
was the goose waiting for them, and
there stood the hen in her great fius-
tration. On this occasion we are not
at all sure that the goose invited the
hen, observing her maternal trouble,
but 1t is fact that she being near the
shore, the hen jumped on her back, and
there sat, the ducklings swimming and
the goose and hen after them, up and
down the pond.
This was not a solitary event; dav
after day the hen was seen on board
the goose, attending the ducklings
up and down in perfect contentedness
and good humor-numbers of people
coming to witness. which continued
until the duc!.lings, coming to DAYS Of
discretion, required no longer the Joint
guardianship of the goose and hen"
