COcEatOOs.

The cockatoos constitute branch OF
the great parrot family, and, with the
exception of the species which inhabits
the Philippine islands, are peculiar to
the Australasian region.
Leadbeater's oockatoo is one Of the
most beautiful of the group, his white
plumage being tinged with rose color
W. T. Greene, the great authority on
cage parrots, describes it aptly as "rasp-
berry and cream" color-but as his
mental endowments are by no means
equal to his personal attractions he is
less popular as pet than species with
more intelligence than good looks. One
point in his favor must be mentioned
he is less determined screamer than
the majority of cockatoos This, how
ever, is not saying much. In his native
woods of South Australia Leadbeater's
cockatoo is very shy and difficult to ap-
proach. The birds sent to Europe, no
doubt taken as nestlings in the MAORI
ty of instances, remain usually wild
and suspicious, though they bear con-
finement we'll and do not suffer from
the cold.
At home in Australia the cockatoo is
not beloved of the farmer, and it can
be we'll imagined that flock of these
big birds, amounting often to thousands,
commit fearful havoc upon the crops.
Hence it is shot down as remorselessly
as the sparrow in England when it
grows too numerous to be acceptable to
the agriculturist. Like the rest of the
genus, this cockatoo usually makes its
nest in hollow tree, where the hen
lays two pure white eggs.-St. Louis

Sport as a Developer of Character

Every now and then there crops out
In this republic the notion that If our
more cultured citizens were our rulers
that we should be much better off. We
very much doubt it. If our more man
ly citizens could rule us, then no doubt
we should be better off. But there is a
freakiness and fnicalness, an inability
to give and take, a general rubbing and
cracking Of machinery among men de-
veloped only ON the one side of the
mind, which always everywhere makes
them Objectionable as rulers. Boxing
is just as likely to make man meek
as books, but if you have bully to deal
with neither the boxing nor the books
will avail anything, and he becomes al
most more Objectionable as an editor
than as a prizefghter. OF course sport
will fail, just as every other agency
will fail, with certain men. On the
other hand, for the great majority Of
men, we'll conducted sport will teach
them fortitude, gentleness, meekness
and fair play as no other agency yet in
vented by man can do.-Outing.

A Funny Mistake.

A servant lass at an inn once made a
funny mistake. Opening the door Of one
of the rooms, she saw, as she thought,
the handle Of a warming pan sticking
out near the foot of the bed. "Bless
me-" she said, that stupid Martha
has left the warming pan in the bed
She might have set the place on fire. p"
Taking hold of the handle, she gave it a
violent jerk, when up jumped an awak-
ened traveller, shouting Justify: Hell
10, therel Leave my wooden leg alone,
will u?"-London Fun.

GraYestone Emblems.

In cemetery in a neighboring state
lies buried a family Of the name Of
Rose. Upon each headstone is cut this
flower, broken at the stem, while upon
the babes tomb is engraved bud.
Curious as this is in itself, however, it
is emphasized by the neighboring plot,
where lies a family of the name Of Fish,
who have followed the example Of the
Roses by having q small specimen Of
the finny tribe cut upon each of their
grayestones. York Sun.

THE BALLOT IN LOUISIANA.

Booker T. Washington is not only a
man of whom the colored people of
the country may be proud, but he is
also man Of whom the whites may
be proud. In the best sense of the word
he is d patriot, for he is striving with
all his might and main to solve the race
question, a question that is very seri-
Gus in its way.
Louisiana has been wrestling with
the problem of suffrage, seeking to
raise the educational qualification of
the voters. This called forth an open
letter to the Louisiana convention
from Mr.. Washington, in which he
says:
The negro agrees with you that it is
necessary to the salvation of the south
that restriction be put upon the ballot.
1 know that you have two serious prob
lens before you: Ignorant and corrupt
government on The one hand, and on
the other Z way to restrict the ballot so
that control viii be in the hands of
the intelligent without regard to race.
With the sincerest sympathy with you
IN your efforts to find a way out of the
difficulty. 1 want to suggest that no
Sldlc III the StUln can make law that
will provide an opportunity or tempta-
ton for an ignorant white man to vote
and withhold the same opportunity
from an ignorant colored man without
injurinS both men. Any law eontroll-
ing the ballot that is not absolutely
Just and fair TO both races will work
more permanent injury to the whites
than to the blacks.
1t is right and proper to exclude the
ignorant and unlettered negro from
the polls, and it is likewise right and
proper TO exclude the ignorant and
unlettered white from the polls. Let the
test OF fitness be educational and not
racial, and let it be honestly and impair
tally applied and there can be no OBJ
lection to it. No state in the Union can
afford TO have one ballot law for the
black man and another FOR the white
man.

the suggestion. She says she will abide
by the wishes Of her husband. and will
use champagne. She is the wife of
Lieutenant Commander Winslow, L. S.
N. a descendant of the commander of
the old Kearsarge, which defeated the
Alabama
Mrs. Winslow has made a very SEN
sible decision. The w. c. T. L. has
done some splendid work in behalf of
temperance but here is a case where
it wants to interfere in an affair that
dc es not concern it. This desire to in
terfere in this particular case shows
that it has not given the matter due
consideration. If Mrs. Winslow uses
champagne when she christens the
Kearsarge, it will be one bottle less
in the world. and one temptation less
to man. If the w C. T. U. could have
it's way, would it not spill all the cham
payne and liquor in the world on the
ground or in the ocean? Then why not
rejoice at the splitting of this one bottle
of champagne? Why shouldn't there
be as much rejoicing over one bottle
of champagne spilled as over ore sinner
saved, comparatively speaking?
The destruction of a bottle of cham
payne on the Kearsarge's PROV cannot
retard the growth of the temperance
sentiment; the tendency should be in
the opposite direction, but this senti-
ment cannot be encouraged or spread
by such cranky interference with an
old and time-honored custom as the
christening of a ship. 1t is zeal for a
good cause sadly misdirected.

1t used to be said that a lie would
travel a league while truth was putting
on it's boots, but with modern improve
ments-the press, the railroads and the
telegraph-the saying has lost much of
its force. Yesterday morning the Trib-
une said:
The stupid pretense of the ring or
gan that the mayor is bound by an
opinion of the city attorney when the
matter is in process of adjudication in
the courts, is too trivial for words
When the courts determine the case
then it will be settled, not before.
That falsehood did not get three
leagues, or third of three leagues, be-
fore truth overlook it. The Herald did
say:
The mayor says he has beer unable
to arrive at any conclusion as to what
construction of the police and fire law
is the correct one. Very likely: but his
duty is to accept the construction of
the city attorney. and abide by it until
the courts have determined that an
other construction is the correct one.
Quite different that from what the
Tribune says. Presumably the Tribune
holds that the mayor should go hunt
ing around for legal opinion that will
suit him if the city attorneys does not.
The Tribune has deliberately and ma
tried to misrepresent The Her
AIDS position, but it has not succeeded;
it has only succeeded in displaying its
own stupidity.

COST OF A WEEKS WAR SCARE.

1t is not unnatural that the Maine
disaster and all the war talk conse-
quent upon the incident, should have
had some effect upon the stock market.
/ 1t is estimated that the loss to hold
ers of securities of the bonds and stock
variety last week amounted to at least
$150,000,000 The Philadelphia Times
says this result was produced almost
entirely by reckless and destructive
Journalism. which gave currency to the
most startling falsehoods, predicting
immediate war with Spain. This de-
structive journalism" says the Times,
lis as disgraceful as it has been de-
structive and that never in the history
Of journalism of any country has there
been such reckless invention of false
rumors to inflame the public mind on
the question of war and to destroy con-
fidence in securities and in business
circles"
1t may well be doubted if there was
any such loss as estimated. That there
was some decline in the price of bonds
and stocks as a consequence of the
Maine disaster, is true, but there would
have been practically the same loss
had the simple facts in the case alone
been telegraphed over the country The
disaster was so appalling and the anti
American feeling of the Spanish, ow-
ing to the undeniably strained rela-
tons existing between this country
and Spain, so intense. that the thought
of war was the very first to enter the
minds of Americans and Spaniards,
when the news of the sinking of the
Maine in Havana harbor was tele-
graphed over the country. Some jour-
nails have sought to keep this thought |
uppermost and to make it take the form |
of action. but these papers have been !
few indeed; the press of the country |
generally has deprecated and discour- |
aged all attempts to arouse the war
spirit of the people.
We don't believe that bonds and
stocks have deprecated in value $780,
600, 900 the last week as the result of
destructive journalism" The stock |
operators in Wall street have done
more to depreciale the value of secu-
rites than anybody; they have used
the Maine disaster to influence the
market in their own behalf But if
0ne week of war scare costs $50, 600, 0OO
how much would a week of actual war
