ooue Remarkable Stories Teld 81 III
Mysterious lnAaeneea.
Doctors disagree a to the influence
Of heredity. Some hold that . great
deal hinges upon It: others believe the
contrary. Some Of the authentic stories
told to exemplify this mysterious bond
between ancestors and descendants are
very curious.
There was q loan collection OF old
portraits exhibited in London lately
and young girl was among the visit
ors. She was an orphan and wealthy,
but without near relatives, and was
often heard to complain Of the loneli-
ness Of her position.
Az she passed through the gallery one
particular portrait attracted her atten-
ton and she went back to 1t more than
once. Her companion saw In 1t moth
Ing but the commonplace painting OF q
middle-aged man in the costume Of the
latter part Of the last century.
at IN such q nice kind face" said
the girl. rather wistfully. II imagine
my father might have looked Ike that
had he lived"
As most Of the pictures were ticketed
the visitors had purchased no cata-
logue, but before going away Miss b.
bought one at the entrance and made .
last visit to the portrait for which she
had felt 30 strong an attraction. To her
establishment she found her own name
opposite to its number and learned on
inquiry that the original was one Of her
direct ancestors.
Another occult coincidence or psyche.
logical phenomenon happened few
years ago to Southern statesman and
6nancier whose family has always been
Of rank In his native State. This gentle
man was overhauling old documents
and letters which had been stored In q
musty chest for years and intended to
publish whatever might be Of historic
value and interest.
To his surprise he unf0lded q letter
yellow and time-stained which was
written in his own peculiar handwrit-
Ing, or seemed to have been written BY
him. although the date was two genera
tons before his birth. The signature
Of the surname, which was the same al
his own, was so markedly characters
tic that he could scarcely believe his
own hand did not pen the letters.

Hen Be "Incriminated."

The uniformed functionary who Is In
command Of regiment of bellboys at
local hotel takes pride in the mouth
full of jewelry that Is displayed every
time he grins. He had bad luck with
his teeth In earlier life, and several
worries have been replaced with gold
filings. An acquaintance, one Of the
prominent regular boarders at the
hotel, noticing the animated showcase
the other day. observed:
II am afraid, captain, that after You
are dead and buried, you won't remain
long In your grave. Some one will dig
you up for that gold in your mouth.
You'll be worth more dead than you
are alive"
Rastus laughed 30 heartily at this
that the jewelry display dazxled the

An Ola "Red" Who Kills Ruiers by
Cat Proxies-E6ect Of Riches.
Eyes, there are lots Of anarchists In
Philadelphia, but they are not nearly
so much in evidence as they used to
be-" said an old detective recently.
Ever since the Haymarket affair In
Chicago they have kept pretty well I'M
der cover. Previous to that lot Of
the more prominent ones used to meet
In . hall at Eighth and Callowhill
streets, where they would drill. They
were organized as q military body and
had uniforms and weapons.
1.-THE leader Of this group. now an old
man, lives uptown. He used to be q
butcher. and now he amuses himself
assassinating by proxy all the crowned
heads of Europe. the proxies being
stray cats. For hours at time, am
told. he will stand motionless against
his back fence. waiting for his prey.
After awhile cat comes walking
along, all unconscious Of danger. Sud
denly the arm of the old man shoots up
ward and he clutches his victim In an
iron grasp. In q frenzy of delight he
rips out q big butcher knife and Sits
the cats throat from ear to ear, at the
same time shouting: Die! Emperor
Williamr Or, II the mood seizes him,
1t II the Gar Of Russia, or King Ed
ward Of England, or Franz Josef of
Austria, or some other potentate. Hun
dreds of cats that he has slain In this
way are buried in his back yard"

xens?"

There have been some instances.

name It would scarcely be fair to men,
ton. although fifteen years ago he was
very prominent In anarchistic circles In
Philadelphia. He even published lit
tie paper In the interests of anarchy,
called Die Zukunft. It was printed In
German; indeed, the editors knowledge
of English at that time was very Inn
tied. The sheet was so rabid that af-
ter the Haymarket riots 1t was sup
pressed. This man was an expert chem

Germany, from which country he had
been exiled. He was offered employ
ment at a salary Of $50 week. more
money than he had ever dreamed of
making. He was frugal in his habits
and soon acquired snug bank account.
With approaching affiuence he turned
his hack upon his old associates and
eventually married an American wife.
To-day his name IL but memory

present friends and acquaintances

with them.

BIRDS WITH RARE TALENT.

Many Of TheI Learn to Talk ~ Well -

The parrot, the maggie and the raven
are not the only birds capable of learn
ing human speech. In them the facul
ty of imitation il more highly develop
ed than among the other members of
the feathered world. There are score
of species that are able to initiate
sounds made by other animals. Blue
jays. caught early and properly trained,
can be taught to speak as well as most
parrots, and the same thing can be ac-
Ecomplished with a crow II he Is caught
young and his tongue slit. NJ. III. Cou-
pin, well-known naturalist, tells some
curious stories regarding the initiative
powers of certain birds which are gen.
orally supposed to lack such attain
ments.
He tells Of sparrow which learned to
initiate the strident noise made by q
grasshOpper. The cage containing the
sparrow was hung during one spring
next to a cage In which were grassh0p-
pers. At that time the sparrow took no
notice Of the noises made by his neigh
bors, but the next spring, when he
found himself again In the company of
the grasshOppers, he seemed to con-
slider that 1t was "up to him" to take
part In their daily serenades. He made
several attempts to sing after the man.
ner of his neighbors and was moderate
ly successful. For the rest of his life,
long after the grasshoppers were dead,
he would every now and then give vent
to his feelings in a strain composed
partly Of the notes of the grasshoppers
and partly Of the notes Of other birds.
