THE BROWN PELICAN.
Like His White Brother the Bird Is Likely to Be Exterminated
 fin Florida.

Bird Lore has a beautifully illus frated article on Pelican island, in the Indian river. and the editor in voles the aid of the Jacksonville Times-Union in the effort to save this harmless and picturesque bird from the extermination that has all ready overtaken his white brother of our coast. It is pointed out that the brown pelican of Florida has now only one rookery, which is so con venient to the reckless gunners that slaughter during the helpless period of incubation is doing its appointed work
 The legislature would gladly add another good law to our statute book. but has this availed to save the egret. the paroquet, or the pink cur lew? Until the people themselves Eternly repress such cruelty it will continue in defiance of law and it is better not to tempt defiance and en- courage the spirlt of lawlessness. The F1oridian instinetively revolts against any appearance of inhospi- tality- Too many are interested in seeking every pastime for those who care nothing for our future. We fear the pelican must go the way of the GaminRo.

Looking to see what it was, we saw the head of the koy who had climbed the cord lying there, severed from the body at about the middle of the neck. closer examination showed that the ace wore horrible expression, while the scarlet blood poured from the di- gided arteries and the dark venous blood from the veins. The twitching of the newly-cut muscles and the wind pipe, and the cleanly-severed joints of two of the cervical vertebrae were quite plain to the army surgeon and 10 the rest of us, all of whom knew little of anatomy from the field hos- oitals.
 "We hadn't by any means got over the shivery feeling we experienced at seeing the head of the late urchin, when down came an arm, cut off through the shoulder joint and giving all the anatomical relations in that part quite plainly. A moment later the other arm dropped at our feet and an examination showed that it had been cut off in exactly the same way. The doctor said the old rascal carved cleverly enough to have been surgeon at the Royal college.
 ''We were about. ready for anything after that, and so were not particular ly surprised when a leg, severed at the hip joint and exposing the head of femur, the muscles twitching just as you may have seen them twitch in freshly-killed animal came along. The other leg followed in due time, and then came the trunk.
 "A moment later, the old man was seen coming down the string, and, when he dropped to the ground from the end of it, he was literally covered with gore from head to foot. The knife, still held between his teeth, was 'fairly dripping with blood. His eyes appeared wilder than ever, his fea- lures drawn, and he paced back and forth for few seconds like a chained tiger.
 "Then he collected the head, limbs

"HEARr OF MARYLAND.'
< < < < s:

The popular war drama '.The Heart of Maryland" was played to crowd ed house at Jacques last evening. Peo- pie were turned away by the score for lack of room and those who had pro- cured tickets considered themselves fortunate for the performance was all that it was advertised to be. The play was not ':cut'' nor bolstered up by
 instrusiye specialties but played as it was written. ..The Heart of Mary land is a pretty play, introducing the horrors of war and the average emo tions of human nature. love, jealousy, hatred and revenge. This evening and Saturday evening with matinees both afternoons it will be played, undoubt- edly to the crowded houses it deserves.

Disapproves of Germ Test.

Dr. Braoudel, the head of the Paris Academy of Medicine, publishes a statement in which he disapproves of Dr. Garnault's intention to inocu- late himself with the virus of bovine tuberculosis in order to test the value of Prof. Koch's theory that such tuberculosis is not transmissible to human beings. Dr. Braoudel says it is foolish risk to take and will prove nothing, because if Dr. Gar nault does not take consumption it will show that his system is able to resist the tuberculosis Picrobe, not that the germ is incapable of affect ing weaker persons.
 Dr. Braoudel refers to the cases of two men who have just died in Cuba after allowing themselves to be bit ten by mosquitoes infected with vel. low fever for the purpose of expert menting.

WILLIAMS AND WALKER.

The noted colored stars, Williams and Walker, will be at Polls this even ing, presenting their merry musical comedy, "Sons of Ham," Neither the stars themselves nor their comedy are unknown in Waterbury, and there will be no questioning the statement that jolly evening is in store for all who see them. Many persons regard combination of capable colored enter tainers as among the most effective amusement caterers that we have, and the reputation of Williams and Walker for capability is well established. There will probably be a large audi ence in attendance. then, at Polls this evening. and prices are 25, 8, 50, 75 cents and S1.

and trunk and tossed them into the old bag. While watching this action we lost sight of the string and the knife and never saw them again. Singing the bag over his shoulder, he walked away. We knew this was only bluff, because he hadn't yet received any backsheesh and we knew he never would depart without that.
 ''He had moved off only few paces when We saw that something was nov ing inside. the bag. The old man stopped, put on a surprised expres- sion, put the bag down on the ground and in moment out crawled the boy as sound in wind and limb as he had ever seen.
 ''The boy began to smile, and the old man, smiling and salaaming, came to- ward us for his money.s. This he got in very liberal amount, and off he went, leaving us standing there, mys- tifed, confused, fabbergasted.
 eve looked about for traces of the recently-committe tragedy, but where the ground had been red with blood moment before not a trace of it was left. There was not the slight est bit of doubt that the boy had been carved up and there was not the slight est doubt that he had as miraculously come to life again.
 About the carving, the rest of us might have been mistaken, but you couldn't fool the doctor. He had been cold-blooded enough to pick up the different members of the body as they had come tumbling down from the sky, had examined them and was perfectly positive that the dismemberment had taken place and had been the work of a skillful surgeon or student of an atomy. This was one of the fewper- formances that ever saw of the real, genuine Hindoo fakrs of the Indian wilds.''
 But how do you account for it all?" asked one of the British army officers friends.
 sWhy, there is only one way to ac- count for it, was the reply "We were simply mesmerized or hypnotized by the old boy and placed in. such mental state that we imagined the whole per formance really had been enacted"
 But how about the army doctor, who handled the dismembered parts ?' asked some one else.
 ''Oh, he was befuddled just like the rest of us. He thought he handled stray arms and legs and heads and trunks, whereas he didn't do anything of the kind.''
 Maybe Englishmen in India can be- cso,,oa +buS pnanta1lv tyyiSta ad ;, said tba first inquirer, 'but Pm darned if be- lieve anybody else can. Either you saw a miracle performed or the whole blessed lot of you were jagged. ."--N. Y. Sun.
