slender legs were soon carrying them
rapidly after their parents.
One day some men came to the part
of the beach where the plover family
lived. The little ones were much
frightened, so they sat very close to
the sand and the men did not see
them. Father and Mother Power were
quite uneasy. however. They few
near the men and cried, and tried to
get the intruders to follow them away.
The mother bird even pretended to be,
lame. When the men saw this, one.
of them said: Look at that bird; she.
has a nest of young ones near here,
or she would not act so. ] have seen
partridges on the mainland act in the
same manner when l was near their
young
Then they began to search among
the shells. This alarmed the parentsI
so much that they determined to try
their last and best trick. The little
mother ran up close to the men, fell
on her side and nuttered and cried /,
as If she were dying. The father bird
and two other powers, who had a nest
farther up the shore, ran to her and
rubbed her with their bills as if they
were very anxious and sorry about he r
sickness.
"Look there" said the man who had
spoken before, that bird really must
be hurt. ] have seen many kinds of
birds pretend to be injured, but have
never seen two play different parts in
the same trick" So they started to
catch her.
But. Mrs. Power seemed to get bet
ter, and ran on for Is or 30 yards, and
then appeared to fall i'll again. The
other plovers gathered about as be-
fore, and put their bills under her as
if to raise and help the sick one. The
men went hurrying ON; but the lady
| bird again recovered enough to run
for little distance. The young plov-
ers saw the group pass off among the
dunes, the four birds in front and the
men following after. Twenty min
utes later the shrewd old birds were
back 10 their children, and the men,
entirely outwitted, were far down the
beach toward their boat.

birds to attract supposed enemy from

STORY Or A SETTER.
An Interesting Tale from California
Tint Gives Real Healthy Ex-
crctsc to CrcduIity.

Mr.. A. b. Lake, of Great Neck, says
that several years ago, when he had
some preserved marsh lands in Cali
fornia, he owned an Irish setter, jeff
by name. an excellent retriever of
most amiable disposition, with un-
usual gayety of spirit, combined with
the warm-hearted demonstrativeness
characteristic of his countrymen--or
some of them. On August 10, with
the opening of the duck season,
shooting party went in dinghys from
the houseboat to a tulc-sheltered
"blind," and spent the morning in
successful sport. At noon a keeper
came in boat to pick up the killed
birds, bringing with him JEFF, who
had not seen his friends in the
blind" for many months. His eN-
citement when he saw them at n dis
tance was intense. and it was with
difficulty that he was prevented from
leaving the boat and swimming to
greet his friends. He was compelled,
however, to land on a point opposite
the blind" where five birds had
fallen in the tall grass. Four of them
were soon found and deposited in
the keepers boat, and when the dog
was sent back again he went, only to
return dragging himself along the
ground out of the keepers sight. In
this way he reached the boat, seized
one of the ducks already retrieved,
and carried it off into the tall grass,
whence he Immediately emerged with
it, openly and triumphantly, as one
who had completed his allotted task.
The keeper was deceived, and the dog
was allowed to rush to the blind"
and his friends, who had watched the
whole operation. OF course, the dog
received the welcome for which he
yearned, and its cordiality was not
appreciably diminished because of
the realization that his conduct had
been an infraction OF discipline, not
to say of morals.

REUNITED BY A SONG.
Who Were Separated During
the Civil War.

John Uri Lloyd, chemist by profes-
sion and author by avocation, recent
ly told of an incident by which he was
enabled to bring together two sisters
separated by the civi. war, who be-
lieved each other dead.
In 'Stringtown on the Pike" hee
reproduces scene where, mere lad,
he stood by the pikeside and watched
troop of Morgan's raiders gallop by,
singing as they went: The Girl of
the Homespun Dress"
In the book the author used the first
copy of the song that was at hand. I'm
mediately he was flooded with letters
saying that he had misquoted it. Wish
ing to be accurate, he published a
statement to the effect that he would
pay 500 for the true copy of the song.
This only created more trouble, as
there are many variations of it.
Among those sending what proved
to be the original verses were two Sis
ters, one of Philadelphia and one OF
Atlanta, Ga, who stated that their
dead sister, Clara Belle St. C.air, OF
Atlanta, had written the song. In an
sweling one of them Mr.. Lloyd men
toned the other sister. He at once
received a reply from her to whom he
had written, stating that she thought
the other sister dead, and asking him
to send the address. Mr.. Lloyd did
this, and lately learned that they hat
been reunited after 35 years of -separa

ties were sent out to take care of the
dead, between the lines, Gen. j. ID.
Morgan, of Davis division, worked,
shovel in hand, aiding the men to bury
the dead. There were a dozen or more
confederate officers in his immediate
vicinity, and not one of them recog-
nized the general, dressed, as he was,
in a common soldiers blouse, trousers
and cap. He paid no attention to Gen.
Cheatham or any of the other con-
federatc officers on the ground, but
continued TO the last to work with his
men, personally directing every detail.
| saw at that time Gen. ID. S. Stanley,
of the Fourth corps, sitting quietly on
his own intrenchments, smoking his
pipe and watching with an amused
smile the confederates in his imme-
date front. He received many an adj
miring glance, but no one seemed to
notice Gen. Morgan"

A BREAKFAST FIGHT.
Surprise by Overwhelming
Numbers.

Apropos of the recent disaster to
our troops in the Philippines, who
were surprised at breakfast, the com
mand being nearly annihilated, a
well-known grand army man of this
city relates a story of attack upon
a small band by overwhelming num-
bers of the enemy, and his well-nigh
miraculous escape from death, says
the Baltimore Sun. 1t happened in
northwest Arkansas, about ten or fif-
teen miles from Fayetteville, in 1862.
A detachment of 600 picked federal
cavalrymen had been sent out to as
certain the whereabouts of the foe,
some $4,000 or 10000 strong, and had
stopped after n forced march. which
occupied from six o'clock in the even

STRANGE FRIENDSHIP.
1t Existed for Several Months Be-
tween n solemn Gnndcr and a
vicious bloodhound.

A strange friendship between gam
der and bloodhound is reported from
Ohio. On farm not many miles from
Kenton, there was large flock of
geese, and among them, but not of
them, was a solemn-looking gander
that "foclsed all by himself" having
been cut off from his kind for some un-
known reason. Being lonesome, the
bird made overtures to Caesar, the big
watchdog on the premises. The dog,
fierce bloodhound, promptly re-
pulsed the gander's advances. He
rushed out of his kennel as far as his
chain would permit. and pounced on
the bird as though he would tear him
TO pieces. The gander escaped with
the loss of few feathers, and as soon
as Caesar became quiet, he again took
his stand near the kennel. After sew
eral unsuccessful attempts to drive
him away, Caesar seemed to under
stand the situation, and from that time
on accepted the friendship that had
thus been offered to him. The gan
der's devotion to the dog was really re-
markable. He would stand guard for
an hour at time while Caesar slept,
now and then, with his bill. scratching
Caesars head, or his back, as II ca
ressing him. And Caesar seemed de-
lighted to have him do it, If he wan
dered off occasionally after grass,
Caesar would begin barking, when
back would rush the gander, with out
spread wings, cackling and squswking
as he came. This strange friendship
lasted without interruption for three
months, when the dog was accidentally
killed. Then the gander became so
grief-stricken and forlorn that he had
to be taken to n farm some distance
away, there to forget, amid new
scenes, the sorrow that had afflicted
| him.

ing until four o'clock the next morn
ing, in a narrow lane for breakfast,
when almost the entire force of the
enemy charged upon them from the
surrounding woods. Many of the mar
rator's comrades were shot down
where they stood. Others jumped
upon their horses and endeavorcd to
escape. A stampede ensued, which
the officer in charge tried to check
by shouting words of command. The
horse of the trooper, being one of
the best in the detachment, carried
its rider over fence deep into the
forest to place of comparative safe
ty, and there dropped in its tracks,
having received a fatal wound during
its flight.
Just as I had stripped the noble
animal and turned him loose-for /

would reach hostile ears-I heard the

tinued, "and, grabbing my carbine,
