Beautiful Wings-Amber Mines
and Their Captives.

Near Fort Reno, in the Indian Terri
tory, is a prairie dog village, and a
visitor at the fort tells Our Animal
Friends something about these inter
esting little animals:
Whenever an alarm was sounded
numbers dashed about, running hither
and thither in manner that indicated
that they were caught away from
home, as one of their binding rules for
bids one to enter the domain of anoth-
err, and each must seek shelter within
his own burrow These burrows are a
few feet apart, and in every direction
well beaten paths are to be seen. They
are very social animals, and when all
was quiet 1t was amusing to see one of
the little fellows leave his own lodg-
ings and run to sit with a friend upon
his mound, the two being occasionally
joined by third, the visitors appear
ing to halt for moment on their way
upon aD eTra2d OF business or pleasure.
A great deal of energy and activity
were displayed, although there was no
evidence that actual labor was being
performed. Those that have closely
studied their customs say that there is
always one that represents the govern
ing power of the town. He appears to
be consulted upon sundry and divers
matters and is exempt from toll, but
he shares in the benefits that accrue
from the labors of the others.
These villages radiate from a com
mon center, growing in all directions
as the families increase, the burrows
being connected by a series of under
ground passages. Each burrow is dug
in a direction slanting downward for
about six feet, when there is an abrupt
turn as we'll as a slight rise. AT this
point there is q little excavation, which
serves as second story. Here is to
be found bed of dried grass, with
storage of roots and grains or what
ever else they have been able to pro-
cure in the way of food.
AS it is their custom to locate on
high ground at some distance from wa
ter, there has been current belief
that they have no need Of natures uni
versal beverage, but excavations have
proved that they depend upon a sub
terranean well for their water supply.

The weeds Wings,

Mamma, | never knew weeds were
so pretty. Just look here" And Oracle
held before her mother a downy white
globe of the daintiest texture clinging
to stiff brown little stem.
Isn't it beautifulY' said mamma.
"See, the globe is made of white
WINGS"
"Wingsw said Oracle wonderingly.
"They look like little white stars
EYES," answered mamma, they do,
but they are really wings. Do you see
the cluster of little brown seeds at the
center?'
YES" said Oracle, looking at it care
fully.
Now" said mamma, ''pull one of
them out. No; wait. Blow the globe
instead"
So Oracle blew upon it gently, and,
10, away floated the little white stars,
each carrying with it a tiny brown
seed!
Now, do you see," asked mamma,
''why called them wings? Each little
seed has a wing, and when the wind
DlOWS upOu IL IL HIS away GdLIy Ing
it's seed with it, and then it drops
down sometimes a long way from the
spot where the little weed which bore
it grew, and there the little seed lies
until it sinks into the earth, ripens and
sends forth another weed of the same
kind"
isn't it wonderful, mamma? And
see, too, how beautiful each little wing
is! 1 don't think l shall ever say old
weeds again. Their seed wings are
as pretty as the flowers"

Amber Mines and Their captives.

Amber is a product of a gum from a
cone bearing tree. Thus it is closely
allied to resin, but by one of natures
wonderful processes the soft gum for
nation has been transformed to COM
position that is durable, capable of
outstanding heat and brittle, like
glass. Much of the worlds amber is
mined in Prussia, near the Baltic sea,
There imbedded in blue clay are found
the wrecks of ancient trees and great
deposit of amber Much of 1t contains
insects in a fine state of preservation
Over 1000 varieties of these insects
have been found preserved in amber
A large proportion of them are entirely
unknown today. Part of the amber is
found under the sea, and all of it sug.
gests a mystery of prehistoric life and
vegetation.

False kindness.

The sofest little fluff of fur
The gentlest most persuasive purl
Oh everybody told me that
She was the '1ovelest little catl''
So when she on the table sprung
And Tapped the cream with small, red tongue
/ only gently put her down
And said "No, nol' and tried to frown.
But if had been truly kind
l should have made that kitten mind.
Now, large and quick and strong of will,
She'll spring upon the table still,
And, spite of all my watchful care,
Win snatch the choicest dainties therel
And everybody says; ''Scat, seatk
She's such dreadful, dreadful catl''
But l, who hear them, know with shame
only am the one to blame,
For in the days when she was young
And Tapped the cream with SMALL red tongue
Had l to her been truly kind
l should have made that kitten mind.

When Senator Penrose shall get
up in his place in the Senate to
plead for the admission of Matthew
Stanly Quay as the app intee of
Gov. Stone the most conclusive ar
gument he could present would be
the election returns from the
seventh ward in the City Of Phila-
delphia, where the ballot box in q
single division was stuffed with 3l5
fraudulent Republican votes out of
total Of 357 votes cast This is
the ,mpregnable basis Of the claim
of Mr.. Quay. to represent the people
Of Pennsylvania. These stuffed
ballot boxes make sure the election
Of Republican Governors and
Legislatures in Pennsylvania and
keep the State firm in its place as
the foremost stronghold of Repub.

70 OUR FR1EWDS nv
ACADA

~ For an Efficient and fearless ad-
ministration OF justice vote for Hon.
c. Debaillon for judge and Hon.
VIM. Campbell for district attorney.
Lafayette will give to these gen
tlemen an almost unanimous vote,
and The Gazette has not the least
doubt that Acadia will do likewise.
Messls. Debaillon and Campbell
have both served the people in va
rious official capacities and it is
but doing them simple justice to
say that they did their duty we'll.
This district cannot afford to 60
into any experimenting business,
and were it to elect new and un-
tried men for the judicial offices it
would be at best but a very uncer
tain experiment, whereas the cleo
ton of Judge Debaillon and Mr..
Campbell will place the administra-
ton of justice in safe hands. We
therefore recommend to our friends
in Acadia the choice of the I.afa-
yette Democracy as eminently fit
persons to operate the machinery of
Justice during the next four years
Lafayette parish enjoys most
enviable reputation as the home of
law and order and it is in a spirit
prompted by neighborly interest
in the welfare of our estimable and
progressive young sister that We
urge upon her the advisabiljty of
sele Getting Messrs. Debaillon and
Campbell as the proper persons TO
fulfill the duties OF judge and dis
trict attorney.
Vote for the Lafayette men, and
we promise you will not regret it.

RELIEF FOR MRS. GR/DLk \

Relief FOR MRS. GR/DLEI
Daily States.
1t appears that the proposition TO
make Captain Grldley's widow an
object of charity by raising $4,000
for her by twenty five cent subscrip
tions is very offensive to the lady
and her friends and in view Of this
fact the idea which originated in
Missouri should be abandoned at
once, because the execution of such
plan would be discreditable to
the country for which Captain
Gridle> gave up his fife. Any re-
lief that comes to his widow should
not come like aims tossed into a
contribution, but from the national
government
The proper way for the country
TO do it is to increase her pension.
Thirty dollars a month is large
enough pension. for some persons,
but it is beggarlyJ pittance for the
widow of captain of the United
States navy who went into Manila
bay an invalid and died as the re-
suit of his devotion. Yet that is all
Mrs. Gridley receives under the
general pension laws, and it is said
to be practically her sole support.
1t is understood that bill to in
crease the amount will be intro
duced when congress opens. That
is the proper way to 60 about it,
and the bill should be passed
promptly enough to put an end 10
the two-bit subscription scheme.
We don't doubt that one hundre,I
cheerful persons could be
found in this Country who would
donate the price Of meal each for
Mrs. Gridley, but they ought not
to be given an excuse for offending
a sensitive woman's pride that way.
