ON AN OSTRICH FARM.

The ostrich Is q monogamist. At least
he has hut on wife at a time. The
m atch ma king is arranged by the human
keeper. who puts each pair of birds In u
separate corral. MIR. Ostrich Is likely to
consider the question OF marriage for
some days after he Is introduced to his
partner. and much thought on the quss-
ton colors his shins and besk a bright
red. When he finally determines that
family should be reared, he digs neat
In the ground. He then drives bis mate
up 10 the nest and calls hsr attention to
1t by giving her a kick. II she is dull of
comprehension, and she usually 10, hs
continues to kiok her and scold her, and
his voice much resembles ths roar OF the
lion. He is o ften compelled to go to the
extreme Of kicking her over the eight-fcot
fence forminglths corral.
She finally, however sees her duty and
begins to lay eggs which average thr se
pounds in weight. The first two or thr ee
eggs are not fertile and will not atch.

the mother. and she lays them outside
the nest But in this there is q wonder

But while the nest may be many miles
from water, tbs first requirement. OF the
chick when he comes from the shell is
water or It's equivalent In liquid food.
Hence the necessity Of the two or three
sterile eggs, which the mother breaks
after her brood IL torn, and on which the
chicks live until they are strong enough
to travel.
Left to her own Judgment the hen lays
tkA .ato al In
two days, and when the nest looks com
fortably full the incubation begins. But
the srtinoe of man decetves her. Ths
keeper systematically takes the eggs from
the nest. and as long as her work SCENE

however, as to the sterile eggs. II they

It's the best that has been in the town
inside OF ten years Every body was de-
lighted and they all regretted that he
could net show the man on the burD-

shurch are making strenuous efforts to

fsl Blind Tom was here the first week i'll
March and drew a large crowd at the
Bright Hope Baptist church. This
church is certainly credit to our race
Il was erected by builder from Pasch-
alville, Pa. He was a colored man and
hs employed coIored carpenters. The
masons were mostly Italians, and they
went TO work with this boss mason as
apprentice boys and still remained af-
ter learning their trace with this boss
mason who is also eOlcred. The church
was built mostly by o1r colored broth
er, except the tin work and the slate
roof, which was done by white men.
Blind Tom played at the University
Hall on the 2sth of March,. and there
was q cheerful audience Of oolored and
white people, and they all enjoyed hear
ing him. The Paul Lawrence Dunbar's
