OYSTERS ON TREES.
Bivalves L,ttach Themselves to Hang
 ing Branches.

"At the mouth of one of the bayous near New Orleans I have discovered a new thing in the way of oyster growth in this section of the world" said well known oyster man yesterday, "and have taken more than ordinary interest in it. At the place I have In mind a house arrangement has been built in the water by driving heavy plank piling down into the bottom of the bayou. Some time ago I noticed on one of the blanks a growth which resembled an oyster In the embryonic stage, and l concluded that I would watch 1t. Since that time have watched the growth and it is now fullfledged oyster and 1t seems to have grown on to the plank. l have never seen anything like 1t before Along the shores of Cuba oysters frequently att tach themselves to the limbs of bushes that bend down into the water, and the saying has become popular that oysters grow on trees in Cuba. It Is all because they are so frequently found sticking to the limbs of the mango along the Cuban shore. But we may come to the front in this section with the statement that oys- ters actually grow on plain old wooden blanks, for that is exactly what has hap pened in my own experience. Later on, I expect to tear the oyster away from it's mooring just to study more closely the peculiar growth, but I want 1t to re- main a while longer. It Is now almost fully developed, and in snort while it will have reached the limit of it's growth. It has fared we'll apparently, and no doubt has received all the nourishment IL needed"

never taken from their nest except by such persons as I have mentioned, and they rob the nest, suppose, because their principal food supply comes from this source. Quail meat comes pretty high in the market at all times, and the average man will find 1t more profitable to spare the eggs and wait for the birds when the hunting season rolls aroundi Those men would pass hundred nests in one day without disturbing an egg. The sport of hunting the birds is an additional ineen- tive.
 The average negro does not care so much about this aspect of the case. He figures that the white man, having the best gun and the best dog, will beat him to the bird. So he goes after the egg, One partridge will lay anywhere from a dozen to twenty eggs, and a nest is good find I know of many families in rural sections who feast on these eggs in the layina season. I have tried the egg myself as an experiment. I found 1t peculiarly rich. Ii has a good flavor, is very palatable and in fact. Is altogether a very fine thing to eat Really, I believe that the egg has more nutrition in 1t than the fully developed bird. but, of course, as one of the men fond of the game in the field, I would like to discourage the robbery of the nests"

 s.My friend" she wrote, would come anywhere you like to name to hear you play privately. As we are not rich we cannot afford high fee, but we shall be happy to pay you half a guinea for your loss of time"
 Paderewsld told his secretary to write the next morning. She came, and he played five or six pieces to her. She was delighted, and on leaving she gratefully rendered him los, 6d., which, needless to say, Paderewsld politely declined.

Nutrlment In Quail Eggs.

From the New Orleans Times-Demoerat.
 Few persons are aware of the fact"
 said a well known physician yesterday, "but it is true. nevertheless, that the egg of the partridge is one of the most nutri- tious things in the world. They are not used for eating purposes except in very rare cases. and then 1t generally happens in remote rural districts. I have known negro families in the State of Louisiana during the laying season to live on the eggs of cartridges. And they would four ish handsomely and grow fat on ac- count of the rich properties of the eggs. These eggs, of course, never find their way into the market. because they are

SHORT STORIES
 OF THE DAY

 Admiral Sampson was born on the cele- brated Mormon Hill farm, near Palmyra, Wayne County, N. r., so-called because Joseph Smith, obedient to the "revela- tions', of an angel, which he claimed to him in a. vision, went, so runs the legend, to the hii on the farm a few years later purchased by the Admirals father, and there excavated the golden plates where on were graven the creed and command ments of the Latter Day Saints, relates the, Saturday Evening Post. Two trans parent stones, trimmed with silver and called by Smith the Urim and Thummim, were 1t was claimed, found with these tablets. Through these stones the ancient record written in forgotten hieroglyph- ics, became ineligible, according to the brief of that sect.
 Admiral Sampson, in his boyhood, fre- quently explored the cave on Mormon Hill in his fathers pastures The admiral had more faith in the tradition of the golden plate in the early years than he has now v ess
 But the caves were there, and they ex- erted, he says, a great influence upon his credulous imagination. It was favorite game among the boys of the neighbor- hood to follow the lad Sampson to the rnysterious grotto. Being a son of the owner of their Mecca he was unanimously regarded as their seer and leader Carv- ing cabalistic signs on the edge of their sncred cavern they would enter and set sfurdily to work digging. With exclama> ton of Joy the leader would presently pretend to unearth a latter day decalogue. Then bearing the venerable relic aloft tlt was .ltsr1allys the Admiral says a big clod or a field storie), the boy would lead the faithful tosthe brow of the hill and there. as their prophet, would read the reveia-

HOW old Spiders Live.

Old spiders, which have neither web
nor the materials to make one, often
hunt about to find out the webs of 9TH
er spiders, younger and weaker than
themselves, with whom they venture
battle. The invader generally succeeds,
and the younger spider is driven out to
make new web, and the old spider re-
mains in possession until a stronger
spider invades the web and drives it
