A Little Umbrella story.

One rainy evening when traffic on
the elevated road was dull a guard on
the Sixth avenue line found a COM
paratively new silk umbrella in one
of the cars. When a lone passenger
entered the car at Park place, the
guard proudly showed his find.
"It comes in great for me tonight"
he said. "This is my last trip, and l
have n long walk. had no umbrella" )"
The lone passenger, who was also
without a rain protector, congratulated
the guard.
The two carried on pleasant con-
versation, only interrupted by stops at
stations. In time the train reached
the Eighty-frst street s*0tisn, where
the passenger was to get out. The
guard had carefully deposited his um-
brella in corner of the front plat
form of the car While he was busy
opening the gates the passenger quiet
ly lifted it from it's resting place and
left the car. AS the guard closed the
gates and gave the bellcord vigorous
pull he saw his former passenger walk
ing along the platform carrying the
umbrella.
"Hey, there! Stop it! Bring tina
backr' shouted the guard.
81 need it myself" replied the recen
passenger.
"Come back, say! You are thief!
cried the guard as the train slowly pull
ed out.
The new proprietor of the umbrell
only smiled as he walked down tn
steps. He now shows the umbrell
to his legal friends and quotes the oil

The Countess OF Warwick has with
her husband entertained royal guests on
many occasions, both at Easton Park
where the King, as Prince, planted the
first shrub in her Shakespeare garden
and at Warwick Castle, for whose stately
surroundings he had the keenest admira-
ton. In her early days, when she was
Lady Brooke, the charming hostess was
once placed in an amusing quandary, be-
cause the King arrived at the railway STA
ton without ticket. He was not re-
leased by the station master until Lady
Brooke had earnestly assured that dig
nitary that her guest had no desire to
defraud the company.
There is a story of the Queen of Eng

ed abruptly and looked at him. He, some
what abashed, was going to lower the
camera, but she smiled and continued to
look steadily, so that the nervous photo

a good picture. The Queens action was
probably dictated by the fellow feeling"

SIGNS OF ALARM.

Conservative investors and financiers
are becoming alarmed at the amount CT
trust securities which are being placed
ties represented actual values there would
be no occasion for uneasiness. AS mat
ter of fact, however, about half of them
are water.
In his last financial letter Mr. Henry
Clews said: THE conversion of some ST.
0OO00 900 of corporate capital into a much
smaller number of corporations, with ap-
proximately $5000,OO0,OOO of nominal capt
tai, OF which 1000, OOOO 600 Is common stock
based mainly upon good will, amounts
to stupendous imitation, which has de-
ranged the whole range of investment
values"
This is pretty plain talk 1t means that
three-fifths of the trust securities-the
common stock-represent but little, II any,
value. This common stock is water. 1t
represents only the good will. 1t is easy
enough to carry il along during good
times. but good times are not likely to
last always. Experience teaches that bad
times come along pretty regularly. When
they come again there is likely to be trou-
blous times for the concerns which are
heavily burdened with stock which rep
resents no actual value.
The New Jersey courts have taken
stand against the practice of issuing stock
which has no actual value. They would
have done the country a service II they
had acted sooner. 1t is 10 be hoped of
course that the present prosperous times
will continue for years, but If hard times
come the reaction" in Mr.. Clews' opin-
ion sis likely to surpass many of the
previous adjustments of speculative
booms" What Mr.. Clews means is,
doubtless, that II the present speculative
boom bursts, the wreekage will exceed
anything of that character this country
has ever seen.

There came to an end the other day at
Interstate Park, Long Island, near New
York, what was called on the cards the
Great American handicap. II was a
shooting contest, at live pigeons, and
there We're more than 300 competitors.
The event ran through a whole week, and
more than 1000 birds were thrown out
OF the traps each day to be marks for
the shooters. If all of the poor victims
of the sport had met with instanta-
neous death, there would have been less
to criticize, but a considerable percentage
of them escaped MANNED to suffer and
die later Twenty thousand pigeons were
put up to be sacrificed on the altar of
sport" during the week. OF this num-
Der it is estimated that not less than
1000 escaped, with shattered bones or
lacerated flesh. Many of them had legs
shot off, others wings broken, being Grip
pied beyond recovery. Being powerless
to help themselves, their only fate was
slow death in the places they CHANGED to
fall
The Society for the Prevention Of CRU
city to Animals endeavored to have the
wounded birds put out of their misery, but
it was unable to get them all. Out of
100 birds wounded and crippled the socie-
tvs agents generally managed to find and
kill about eight; the ninety-two others
succeeded in getting far enough away to
hide themselves. Should any of the Grip
pies be so fortunate as to recover only
death awaits them at the hands of the
shooters after all. since they were semi
tame birds, and will return to their for
mer cotes. only to be carried again to the
traps. Thus the little creatures have no
show for their lives. They have no pro-
lection under the law. The only provi-
sion favoring them in the statutes is that
in trap shooting at live birds those that
are not killed by the charge from the gun
but are wounded shall be dispatched as
quickly as possible. The trainers Of the
law, presuming the impossible, supposed
that the attendants upon the shoots
would be able to find Immediately all of
the crippled birds.
1t is good thing. of course, to encour-
age healthful and harmless sports, and
shooting comes under that head when
there is an avoidance of cruelty.
But in live bird tournaments, like
that on Long Island, it seems that
there is an abundance of cruelty.
The birds are not wanted for food; there
is no reason why they should be slaugh-
tered, other than to make holiday for
the marksmen.
bill has been introduced into the
| Legislature at Albany to prevent the
shooting of live pigeons, fowls or other
birds for amusement or for any test of
skill in craftsmanship. 1t provides a
penalty of $50 for each violation of the
law and an additional penalty of SIS
for each pigeon, fowl or other bird shot
at or killed" in violation of the act Moth
ing in the proposed law, it is provided,
shall apply to the shooting of game I'm
der the terms of the bill those who raise
| pigeons for trap shooting, those who buy
| them for that purpose and those who
| shoot at them are made equally liable
to fine. The Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals is backing the
measure, which seems 20 be favored by
| public opinion.
