back and cut of the baggage and mail
cars, leaving the day coaches and
sleepCrs Stading on the main line.
Acting on orders, the engineer pulled
the train half mile down the track,
where a stop was made. Here the rob
bers approached the express car and
ordered Messenger Baxter to open the
door. He told them to go to h-ll.
Under compulsion Engineer Donnnelly
attached a stick of dynamite to the
side door of the car and blew it open.
In the meantime Messenger Baxter

robbers entered the car, while his com

shot, killing him instantly. AS soon as

FEATHERED LOVERS.

The Male Song Bird Studies His Ladv,.
Wants.
A class of lovers that may we'll he
considered. is that of which the blue
bird is one conspicuous example and
the goldfinch .another-the class in
which the females do all the work of
nest-bullding, while the males devote
themselves to singing, says the. Chau-
'tauquan. At first thought these males
are so very much like some men that
we all kno W-men who are pretty and
are given to compliments and who are
enabled to dress we'll through the wis
dom and labor of their wives-that
they are slightingly spoken of by near
~ all students of bird habits. Even
the gorgeous Baltimore oriole is but
half complimented, for he only occa-
sionally helps at the nest making. But
let the observer consider the cases of
these. birds little further and it ap-
pears that the oriole, at least, is de-
serving of sympathy rather than faint
praise. No one can watch the oriole
lady at her knitting for any length OF
time without seeing her good man try
to help. He will bring something and
offer to weave it in, but the chances
are that the madam will first order
him off and then, if he persists, Wake
a dash at him with her bill that :xssNs

really mourns, too, though in si'eroa
have known of case where a m ale
oriole sat watching his wife for half
hour without singing single note. The
bluebird, too, is often treated very
brusquely By his little better half. The
truth is the poor fellows who have
been derided for singing in idle de-
light while their wives toiled are not
a little henpecked. The goldfinch can
not be called henpecked but he certain
ly does not deserve censure. Madam
builds her nest because she can do it
better than he can. That he would
like to help is perfectly plain to one
who watches, for he goes with her as
she flies away for material, sits by her
as she picks it up and flies back with
her as she. returns to the nest to weave
it in. And wherever he goes he bub-
bles over with song. People who blame
the males for not helping to build do
not understand, I think, the difference
between work as we see It and work
as birds see it. To us labor is drudg-
cry; to the birds it is delightful play.
