lot Alfred Tennyson a language? And

not Alfred Tennyson a language? And what was he? "An infant crying for the light and with no language but a cry"
 More can be learned in chicken yard about speech than Garner could learn in his gorilla-proof cage in the African forests. There may be heard the language of love, announcements of discovery, invitations to dine, cries of alarm, shouts of defiance, chal- lenges to combat, the cheer of victory, the muezzin's call and the hymn to the rising sun.
 In beginning to study a language 1t is more difficult to distinguish sen tences than single words. I am not sure, but I think I have found the words which being interpreted are: Here is fresh lettuce, children" and "Keep close to the coop, my dears; and once heard a cock cry, "A hawk! Sauve qui peut!" so plainly that 1 knew what he said, although he was mistaken and had been frightened by a. homing pigeon.
 Emotional expressions form only the basis of a language, but there IS in every company of we'll bred fowls a multitude of low sounds which must denote interchange of ideas; and when some student of gallinaceous psychol- ogy shall translate them into our lan- gauge we shall find that a chicken yard is as full of talk as a woman's club.-Writer in New York Sun

DO CHICKENS HAVE LANGUAGE
Here is Writer Who Knows They q,
 and What They Say.

The Sun today announces that a learned man in Baltimore has made the discovery that chickens have a language. It must be interesting to the professor to find this out for him. self, but the discovery of the fact is CO., eval with the discovery of chickens. Eve in Eden knew the eager chuck cluck which summons the chicks to their diet of worms, and the soft ca ressing note of the mother hen as she gathereth her brood under her wings.
 Of course they have language. Everything that has voice has lan- guage. What else can we name the vocal expression of emotions? Had

Facts About Base Ball.

The Montanian either wilfully
states that which. it knows to be
untrue or is dreadfuliy ignorant of
the facts when it publishes the
following:
The base ball boys are mad, and
well they may be, for after all
their buster the Dupuyer club has
literally backed down, afraid to
abide by their own contract. after
hiring au ''imported battery" to
do our boys up. The boys here
were willing and ready to play any
time and place but as yet no
definite arrangements have been
completed.
We prefer to believe that Editor
Corson has been m~isinforncd by
some of the Choteau ball players
and for his benefit we will state
the facts in the case. An agree
ment was made by the Dupuyerites
and J. A. Porter, representing the
Burton-Choueau club, to play at
Bynum On Sunday, May 18th, for
500 a side, weather permitting.
The weather was fine Sunday
morning and a representative of
cur team went to the telephone,
called up Mr.. Porter and informed
him that we would be in Bynum by
noon ready TO play He tod US
that as our money was not in the
hands of the stake holder his club
would not play that day. Incl
IDENTIFY he admitted that his clubs
money was not posted and never
had been-not a cent. He was
told to name any other day of the
following week, and we would be
in Bynum to play. Alter consul
tation with his club we were in
formed by him that they would
not play us at any time or place
except at Choteau On the Fourth Of
July. In view of the fact that
the Burtoni:es have twice agreed
to play us in Dupuyer and failed US
both times and that the Choteauites
once made such al agreement aid
failed to show up, ard in view OF
the further fact thar we played at
Choteau two years ago this coming
Fourth for "a purse" and our
expenses, and that our hotel bills
have never been paid, we naturally
refused to have anything further TO
do with them.
We hope this explanation is sat
isfactory to Editor Corson. If any
member of the ChOteau club has
informed him differently we will
consider 1T a favor to have his
nan e published.
AS for our ''imported battery
we will say that M. A. Shook, our

FlTzazRALD's HARD HEAD.
rittsburs Detective With the Toughsn
 Shnll In the Country.

Its the hardest nut in the country" Faid Detective Dick Brophy proudly as he laid his hand on Detective Paddy Fitz. gerald head.
 It's fact, too-at least no one has come forward with his own head to dispreve the claim. When Fitzgerald was common pollceman, none of the Lawrenceville teughs ever thought of hitting him on the bead when resisting arrest. They always sought vital spot. There is only one head splitting weapon thEs he ever dodged, and that was some years ago, when a no forious bad nar who hung out at Four. feenth street and Penn avenue aimed blow at him with baseball hat. Fitz yerald ducke6 on that occasion and butted lia opponent Into insensibilitv.
 The other night a policeman walked intc headquarters and produced n new hand billy, the finest, he said, ever made Fitx gerald reached for 1t, rapped it on the top of his head five times, burst the leathes knob and sent the shot with which it was loaded flying all over the room. Thres other policemen, who declared that it was put up job and that the weapon had been doetorsd, had to buy new hand bill lies, for Fitzgerald took every one as fast IS presented and broke them on his skull
 Matt Weiss, a Smithtield street saloon keeper noted for his hard head, became jealous some time ago of Fitzgerald S rep utation and challenged him to head test tng match. The two men grasped each other by the wrists and indulged in but, ting set to. For minute or two there was sound es of husky woodman cut. ting down heavy timber, and Weiss keeled over, vanquished. It remarkable, too, that both men are of gentle disposition Their skulls though hard, are packed with gray matter, astheir success i'll their oeeu. pations proves. Matt Weiss has become rich keeping a saloon, and Fitzgerald is considered ons of the most intelligent de. tentives onlthe force. Pittsburg Letter tH New York Sun.

The Fashionable Firpre.

From the French capital come these sprightly notes FThe fashionable figure may be described in negatives--no shoulders, no chest, no hips and no waist to speak of. The waist is just the depth of a band of ribbon; the fashion able jacket bulges over it all round. I expect shortly to hear that there will be no understandings to mention, the shoes being made to squeeze the feet to noth- ing.
 Where, you ask, is beauty to be found? I suppose ill the hat and hair. The face is so much ill the shade of the advancing hat that one can hardly see it. The gloves are also most coquettish.
 "The stage has ceased to inspire tho eouturiere. Whether owing to the new goldfields in so many parts of the world or the pressure in Paris of so many in- dustrial kings, the cocotte has regain ed the place she filled under the second empire. As she appears in the Bois, so will rank and fashion soon appear i'll Hyde park, ill Central park and in the island of St. Petersburg. ]"

The QuaxreIsome Robin.

The robin, that "pious" bird, is very quarrelsome, and it exasperates one to watch him wasting the precious hours of food in hunting another hungry robin up and down and round and round till ths sparrows have cleared the board. The black birds, too, are very annoying in ths way that they snatch up lump of bread and fly off with it, only to be chased about for the rest of the morning by other black birds, while sparrow makes a square meal off the morsel fallen meanwhile un- der shrub, but relentless as they are in pursuit. the curious fact is thaG they sell dom fight. If the pursued turna, the pur- suer stops perks up his tail, and being promptly charged by the other becomes in his turn the pursued, but WOO to both when the missel thrush comes.

WHY CALLED TuMBLERs.
Curious Origin c8 the Name of an Articls
 1n Daily Use.

Every day we drink out of tu1nbler. Why is the large glass that holds our milk and water so called? Years ago Professor Max Muller was giving luncheon at All Souls college, Oxford, to the Princess Alice, the wife of the Grand Duke of Hesse- Darmstadt and the second daughter of Queen Victoria. There were not dozem guests besides the princess and her hus- band, and very agreeable luncheon we had, with talk on all kinds of interesting subjects
 But what excited the curiosity of all strangers present wis q set of little round bowls of silver, about the size of larga orange. They wege brought round filled to the brim with tine famous ale hreWea fin the college. These, we are told, weee tumblers, and we were speedily shown how they came by their names--a fitting lesson for the guests of philologist. When one of these little hseWs was empty, it wac placed upon She table mouth downward. Instantly, sS perfect was the balance, ft flew back to sts proper position as if ask ing to be filled again. No matter how is was treated-trundled along the floors, bal. aneed carefully on its side, dropped sud- denly upon the soft, thick carpet-up it rolled again and settled itself with few gentle shakings and swayings into ite place, like one of those india rubber tum- bling dolls babies delight in.
 This, then, was the origin of our word tumbler, at first made of silver, as are ali these All Souls umblerss Then, when glass became common, the round glasses that stood on a flat base superseded the ex- auisitely balanced silver spheres and stole their names so successfully that you have to go to All Souls to see the real thing phiIAdelphia Times,

She attended the public schools, the Oakland High school and later the State University of California, at Berke. ley. At Stanford s rival Miss Mclean took a full classical course and graduat. ed with a good record.
 Three years ago she was graduated. She went next to Cambridge, where she took postgraduate work at the Harvard annex, and 6 year ago went to Europe, partly for her health and partly te study. Mrs. Mclean went from Califor. mia and chaperoned her daughter II was while in New York, just before sailing for Europe, that the offer of an instructorship in English at Stanford came to Miss Mclean. It was secured for her by certain powerful friends, whd arranged to have it held open for her until her return from Europe. Up to that time Miss Mclean tastes had led her in literary and classic paths, but she had had no definite aim in hef preparation. She expected, vaguely, to teach, but just what or where had not entered into her calculations.
 Miss Mclean went first to England where she entered the Oxford college annex. Later she studied i'll Berlin and travelled extensively Her health inn proved rapidly, ard she paid close at tention to the methods i'll the various foreign institutions where she was a special student At Stanford Miss Me- Lean is to be an adjunct to the chair of English literature.

rri,nn,ed nnd Tralned sklrts.

The fact is we'll established now that long trailing skirts are to be worn with ho@se gowns By house gowns are meant evening gowns reception gowns or any gowns suited for house wear. As yet we have not gone back to long skirts for street wear, although even walking gowns have the skirts long enough to require holding up in the street. Many of the long skirts are extremely graceful There is one style which is made with very little goring, fitting quite sheath like, with the fullness laid i'll small plaits, but cut to flare out at the end of the train. In soft silks. satins, roplins and cashmeres this is very attractive. for the lines are so graceful. The plain look is broken by bands of trimming either down the seams or around the foot or else with patterns of embroidery and cut work put on the front breadth. There is evidently an intention of re- storing drapery, for some very smart skirts have the front and side breadths long enough to allow of draping just a little back of tho hip and showing glimpse of an underpetticoat of differ ent material. This is becoming style of skirt and looks especially well when the back breadths are long enough to train. Harper S Bazar.
