PIGEONS OF LONDON.

Of all the common sights of London none is more interesting than it's pi- geons, which bring suggestion of old world stateliness into the turmoil of the city. There is particular flock Tor most all the big buildings of Lon- don, and they are to be found all over The city. A curious fact observed is that the birds on the east side Of a huge building have nothing to do with those on the west side, while the bird residents of the north and south sides keep quite as much to themselves.
 The birds live a glorious life. for everybody pets them. The judges of the law courts feed the pigeons, not refaps. but gra1a and such things as birds like. Dozens of clerks in the law. yers' offices scatter food for the birds daily in Kings Bench walk, while the keeper of coffee house religiously brings bits of broken bread for his feathered friends.
 One of the prettiest sights is to see the pigeons which live on the British museum. There are half dozen read CTS who make practice of feeding the birds and the pigeons will abandon strangers who come with full hands for their old friends, even when they appear without food. The cabmen are great friends of the pigeons. which seem to realize these men are good friends to cultivate, for rarely is there enc who will Tot scatter handful Of erain from the horses nosebags

A CLEVER GIRL.
How She Fooled the Other Girls Neatly
 and Completely.


 The girl of my heart came home to attend cousins wedding on Thursday of last week and she stayed in town for two days before going back to school for the commencement which VIII make her sophomore, says the Wash ;ngton Post. It wouldn't be fair to tel the name of her school, but it's an ex- cellent one, where the fashions of tne men's college are followed, even 10 the possession of a college yell and the practcing of hazing. The girl of my heart was hazed last fall She did not eaint when the girls touched her arm With 8 bit of ice and said they Wers branding her with an iron. She en- dured every ordeal so smilingly that the girls at last determined to do some thing perfectly dreadful. They marched her through dark halls, bllnd- folded as she was, opened closet door In the physical laboratory, snatehed the bandage from her eyes, pushed her in, locked the door and left neE shr1eking in the arms of a skeleton. Now, skeleton to her is no more ter rifying than a hoopskirt, but she saw an opportunity to amuse herself. Sha is one of the e1eYerest amateur actress es Washington possesses. She let down her hair and tangled it about her face. Her gown was an old one, so she sacrificed it and tore it to tatters. Then she waited. Presently sic heard the girls returning. Sha began to croon softly to herself a weird song. The girls opened the door. She took no notice of them, but went OH layisn- ing kisses on the grinning skull, laugh ing idiotically to herself the while. Finally one of them whispered: Girls. she's ravipg mad" That was the cue for the girl of my heart. She rayed; she tore her hair; she shrieked when they tried to draw her away from the skeleton; she laughed; she flung her. self about, and finally danced out into the outer room, moaning in a blood- curdling way. The girls dared not even breathe. They were ghastly. They clung to each other and shud- dered. The girl of my heart danced to the door, caught up knife from ta- ble, waved it with a hideous scream and sprang at them. Then, as they huddled together in perfect agony G fright, she dropped the knife aud opened the door.
