Mr. Brinkley especially seemed Surprised

Great age of Birds.

1t is only possible at present to collect
data from the duration of lives Of birds
in captivity; evidence otherwise must be
very unreliable and Ii Is purely matter
of theory as to whether the natural pos
sibls life is greater than that under the
unnatural condition OF captivity. There
are records of a nightingale having lived
% years, a thrush II, a blaekbird that
was sim alive at 20la, goldhnch 23 sky
larks of "a and 90 Ravens, owls and
cockatoos are popularity supposed 70 live
to very great age, and the following
records appear to be authentic: Raven,
50; gray parrot 50 aid 40 blue macaw, GA;
eagle owls, SO, and one sim alive at g.
Some aquatic birds appear to live to a
ripe old age, for we hear of a heron of
60, goose So mute swan 20. Ii Is doubtful
whether any Of the foregoing ages are
any true guides as to the longevity of the
actual families the birds represent, or, in
deed whether the possible age of one
family exceeds that of another, but the
records are interesting. and form step
in the ladder of the Investigation of this
most difficult question. The coloring of a
bird In perfect health and the texture of
its feathers are exactly the same at so
as at g. and those signs that are popularity
put down to age such as bleached and
faded plumage and misshapen claws or
beaks, are attributable TO unnatural con-
ditions of some kind. The great tenacity
of life some birds possess when deprived
of food Is marvellous, and The following
Instances are given: Golden eagle, u
days; an elder duck, Is; an albatross, 80,
and a penguin (Apteno dytes, 1t Is stated,
can live two months.

FILIPINOs in WASHINGTON.
One of the Party Expresses an Opin-

ion Respecting AguinaIdO.
From the New York Mail and Express
Washington, June 13.--The party of Fill
pinos that were detained at Sap Fran
cisco pending a decision from the immi-
grafton bureau, as to whether they could
come into the country under the labor
contract law, for exhibitional purposes,
passed through Washington Sunday, it
having been decided that they could en-
ter. The party consisted of six men, four
women and two babies. BY the time they
reached the capital they were all so be-
wildered and astonished at what they had
seen OF America, that they We're hardly
able 10 express their ideas. The Fllipinos
were simply overwhelmed at the sight OF
the CAPITOL and asked many questions as
to how the big white dome was held up so
high in the air. They did not seem to like
San Francisco, because they had spent
most of their time in the detention build
ing of the custom house, but they were
astonished at the sight of the tall build
ings in Chicago, for they had been allow
ed to go sightseeing during their few
hours stay in that city. When they heard
that the President of the United States
lived in Washington, and that they We're
so near him, they rolled their eyes in awe
and wanted TO know if he lived in the top
of the dome of the capitol. They had got
ten quite used 10 travelling in the cars,
and the women and. babies were especially
delighted with the sleeping berths, and the

one of the Filipino men whose name was
Maxine and VINO was quite intelligent
spoke broken English, and when asked
his opinion of this country, said: Amer
lea is big, big country. Me no see much
of San francisco, but Chicago big place.
Houses so high. Me wonder how people
climb up. No houses like that at Manila;
only one and two stories in Manila" In
talking about Aguinaldo, Maxine spoke
with evident disgust and Indignation. He
said; "Agunaldo, he want to make
money. He soon give in to United States.
BYE and bye war stop. Manila wants
Tinted States to keep Philippines. Agui-
naldo he only want money. Me no like
him" In speaking about the arrival OF
Dewey and his fleet at Manila last May
Maxine grew enthusiastic and said: Yes,

Dewey's ships Great noise. Much smoke.
But when me see Spanish ships sink, me
knee, and pray for Thanks. Maxine said
that he and his fellow Filipinos received
thirty Mexican dollars month and board
while they were In this country, and the
women got fifteen Mexican dollars, and he
added: Babies no get anything" He
thought this quite fortune, and as the
party gets their passage paid back TO
Manila, they all seemed satisfied with
their prospects,

sWINTON's HISTORY.
Why Daughter of the COnfederacy
Objects to 1t.


Editor Morning News: Allow me to say
a few words in regard to Swintons his
tory and the conservative communication
sent to the Board of Education by the
Savannah Chapter, Daughters of the Con-
federacy.
First, let me state that the Daughters
of the Confederacy are composed of al
most 200 of the representative women of
this city, whose husbands and fathers,
and many of themselves are taxpayers,
and who assist in supporting the public
schools of Chatham county, and more,
they are Southern mothers of Southern
children-that they are unwilling that
these little Southern children shall be
taught in the fifth grade of the public
schools of savannah deliberate untruth
compiled by a Northen man is but natural;
Swinton, in his "a pages, devoted to
the war between the North and South,
says that the fundamental cause of the
war was slavery" In 1860 this was not
the acknowledged cause with the North,
and the South stood upon higher plain,
constitutional state right. | have heard
that in some of the public schools at the
North Uncle Toms Cabin is used as
a text book. If they are teaching their
rising generation such untruthful history,
shall we be accessories TO the crime? Shall
we, by our silence and indifference, al
low this Northern mans untrue state
ments to be implanted in our childrens
minds? If there We're not another fault
twenty-four pages, that alone should con-
denim It TO every true Southerner.
4 cannot understand why fair and
impartial" historian VINO could write
(however limited any account of the war
and fail to even mention the name of
Stonewall Jackson or his valley cam
naign. The name and character of jack
son, his noble deeds and brave daring
should have a place in every Southern
school history through the land. Gen.
Stonewall Jackson was no myth, no i'm
aginary character, composed In some
Thrilling fairy romance of an unknown
epoch but a sublime hero of the grand
est type.
No name, no record. ask the world
The world has read his story,
II all the annals can unfold
prouder tale of glory
Swinton's remarkable record of the bat
tle of Manassas is noteworthy. Some
might call it fair and Impartial. II reads
something like this: "On July q Lees
army met so-and-so (some Northen gem
eraH and Lee pushed on TO the Potomac
river. Perhaps this may be just to both
sides but / doubt not Swinton would
have made a very different statement
had that hard fought fight swung with
Inc pendulum of fate, the other way
An we Daughters of the Confederacy
southeru mothers ask of our Board of
iSd1,ca ton is that they will adopt into the
