The story of Canary Dick.
Dick is a canary. That is, he poses as
a canary, and any casual observer would
suppose that he was merely one of these
little piping songsters, not larger than
your thumb, and with throat full of
fantastic melody. But how little would

and his poetic thrills and rouIades Dick
Is a terrible fellow, a regular tyrant of
a bird.
1t really makes me tremble to think
of what a dreadful creature he would be
if he were six feet in length, instead of
two inches! In the first place, you must
know that Dick doesn't get along well
with his wife. Now, there never was
a quieter or more domestic specimen of
womankind in bird cage thin this

With one comprehensive sweep she took
in the summer landscape that lay before

Henry Cavanagh."
Mr.. Vincent not having known women
very intimately before his marriage and
having been married only a few months,
found his wifes unexpectedness her
greatest charm.
Now she sprang up gaily. rushed at
him, flung her arms about him and de-
clared he was the sweetest thing in the
world.
Although slightly puzzled, Mr.. Vincent
smiled indulgently and awaited further
developments
oh she said, I'm so excited! Doro-

"But they never came together-never
even met There was always some trivial
thing that kept one or the other away.
Fate was aginst them; and she has re-
Tented" She ran her slim fingers through
Vincent's hair, delightedly. This is
coincidence-it isn't fate, it's Providence!
Won't those other women envy me-won't
they hate me! You'll get Mr.. Cavanagh

| Vincent found his wife,
OF course you are worrying over those

run off here alone in the dark under
other conditions"

tragically.
Vincent had placed mis- hand over his
wife's lips.
'Fn be, hanged' he said Its Doro-
thea and Cavanagh.'
They came down the long portico slow
ly; they were utterly unconscious of the
proximity of the Vincents.

was saying, 1T has been an eternity

vehemently, II couldn't stand it another

you, my darling" Cavanagh laughed
happily and drew the girls unresisting

then turned and walked back into the
house.
There was absolute silence on the piaz-

Vincent felt something hot and wet on
his hand. mot tears?' he asked in dis
may.
ITO think that Dorothea would act like
that!'' Mrs Vincent sobbed I'm sorry
for the poor, neglected sweetheart,

not in it I'd die.''
Miss TrelGwny was still with Cava-
nagn when the yincents entered the
house through the library. There it was
cool and the lights were dim. From the
room beyond the sound of music and of
dancing feet came.
I'VE don't care if people do know" she
said. "Tne engagement will De announce

Vincent grasped Cavanagh's hand
heartily and, husbands are but mortal,

Discomfort? Mrs. Vincent stood drawn
to her slender height, smiling, and hold

sweet and as clear and cool as crystal
as she said:
you've surprised Mr.. Vincent, and all
the house party will be astonished. But,
you see, your indifference was a trife too
overdrawn-a little too over studied TO
deceive me-
She kissed the girl. held out her hand
to Cavanagh, and then the four of them

"Oh," Mrs. Vincent whispered to Vim

1T was week later and they were wait

been the last member of the house party
to arrive, waiting also for dinner There
was murmer of talk-soft laughter-the
deeper tones of men.

eplaintive little whisper in Vincent's ever
sympathetic ear few moments later.
But, my dear, what would you have

Mrs. Vincent sent look flashing down
the dinner table at Vincent, and he
smiled back that the table and it's ap-
pointments were perfect. Men are such
dear, stupid creatures. Had a woman
who understood intercepted the Took
she would have seen Miss Trelawny and
Mr.. Cavanagh were not impressed with
each other, not even politely interested.
Miss Trelawny was talking to the man
on her other side and the brilliant bru-
nette on Cavanaghs right had claimed
his attention.
Vincent stood at his bedroom window
that night, looking out, when plaintive
little voice, tired out with the heavy
duties of the day, conf1ded in him the
awful intelligence of Cavanagh's engage
ment.
He had told her about it himself, and
had said that the engagement was to be
announced the next week when he went
back to town.
Vincent took the little figure into his
arms. But he smiled broadly into the
friendly darkness-husbands are human,
you know.
In all the gay week that followed it
seemed that Cavanagh was attentive to
every woman in the house but Miss
Trelawny.
The vincents' charming piazza was like
a room with It's rugs and cushions, chairs
and tables, books and magazines, and

feed Polly, while she stayed on the nest;
and think of the Tabor that would involve!
No indeed No housekeeping for this idle
and fantastic little swaggereT.
And@so, the4yery moment that Polly be-
gins to gather up the bits of cotton and
thread with which she would like to line
the dainty basket in the corner of the
cage, Dick flies into violent passion
and shows what d dreadful fellow he re-
ally is. No sooner does Polly get part
of the lining fixed to her liking than Dick
pounces upon it and tears it into shreds
and throws the shreds as far as he can.
And then he sits upon the perch and sings
as though there were nothing to do in
the world better than making gay and
rollicking music.
And that poor little Woodworking Pol
ly, how patiently she goes to work again
and gathers up the sea uttered bits and

and settles herself down into them, turn

the nest head foremost and to tear the
house to pieces again, until there is not
one stone left standing upon another, so
to speak,.
This will never do we said at last.
Dick must be restrained; Polly must be
protected
And SO we put a partition between them
and left Polly and the basket in one side
OF the cage, while Dick was shut up in
the other, to carry his love for boarding
house to any extent he liked. Oh, but he
was in a fine humor then, you may be
sure. All day long he ragged up and down
along that partition like Gagged hyena;
and when at last Polly had her nest fin

We really thought that Dick would bring
apoplexy or some other dreadful thing
upon himself.
The very next day someone accidentally
raised the partition, and before you could

of cotton in every direction. And when

PLANS FOR MUSIC HALL.
Temporary Board of Managers viii
Take Charge of the New Building.

Miss Sturgis and Miss Gordon have
announced the following temporary
board of directors for the new music
hall which they wish to have erected in
St. Paul: Richards Gordon, Theodore
Schurmeier, c. A. Severance; Jules Han
paford and James H. Skinner.
This board will make careful and COM
plete investigation before placing the
stock for the new building on the mar
ket in order that they may be certain
of the feasibility of the plan. The men,
bers of this board Will act as an adj
yisory committee.
There are a number of people in st.
Paul who. are of the opinion that st.
Paul needs a new library building rather
than a rev music hall, but not few
are also of the opinion that the two
might be combined. A woman prominent
in musical circles said to L he G o e
Yesterday am heartily in favor Of
having a new music hall, for st. Paul
certainly needs something of the Kind
but / cannot see why the plans OF those
contemplating such building should not
be enlarged sufficiently TO take in IL
library as we'll Such an object would
appeal directly TO all classes of people.
1t is the fashion, too, now to combine
club house, music hall and library. with
the modern system of deadenlng walls
the music would not interfere with the
patrons of the library, and, moreover,
as nearly all big musical affairs are held
in the evening concerts would not IN
terfere with the reading public.
The board of directors who have been
selected to advance the plans of the new
building represent the various prominent
business interests of the city, and for
this reason the new venture promises
to be placed on a. firm business basis.
Another meeting will be held on next
Wednesday evening, and at this the
board will present the results of its in
vestigation.

Common Things.

ABOUT common things. Out of 12d
children between ten and sixteen years
OF age. tifty-eight had never seen a flock
growing. ninety had never heard a
