Curiou. BIRD Habit..

1t is a well known fact that if the
young of almost any kind of bird are
taken from the nest before they can fly
the old ones will feed them most atten-
lively if the cage in which the little
birds are inclosed is placed somewhere
where the parents can reach it, and a
popular but erroneous belief is current
that they do this for a time, and end
by poisoning the young ones.
This, however, is a mistake, the fact
being that at a certain stage of a young
birds existence, when it is naturally
able to begin catering for itself, the
parent birds. also quite naturally, cease
to attend it, and then, if the birdlings
are shut up in the cage and their Gus
todian has not thought of placing some
food at their disposal they necessarily
die, not from poison administered by
the parents. but from starvation.-St
Louis POST Dispatch.

CONGREGATIONAL O'NElLL.

~Incendiaries Believed to Have Tried to
Burn the Town..
ONEILL, Neb., July 26.-At l o'clock
Yesterday the fine livery barn of B. A.
Deyarman vas discovered to be on fire
and In an incredibly short time the en-
tire building was destroyed. From the
Darn the fire spread to the blacksmith
shop and pillow works of Frank Balm,
which We're totally destroyed. Then it
crossed the street and caught in the Fal-
Ion livery barn and a vacant business
building belonging to the State bank.
Both We're destroyed.
From here the flames passed over the
Methodist church, parsonage and a
number of dwellings and started a con-
Migration i'll row Of private barns three
blocks north. 1t was only by the most
heroic work that the residences in this
portion of the city We're saved. At the
time the fire started Deyarman's barn
was full OF farmers teams and it is es-
tlmated that of 100 head of horses only
IA We're rescued. Later fire was discov-
cred in a barn in the rear of the Evans
hotel, but the tiremen extinguished it.
The total loss by the fire is $40, 900. The
insurance will not exceed 81, 200. In-
cendiarism is suspected.
