WHERE DID HE GET HIS
FACTS?

In the Evening Post, of Mon
day last, there appeared the fol-
lowing dispatch:
Frankfort, KY, April %. Ken
lucky river is out of its hanks at
the lower edge of Frankfort, just
below the mouth of Benson creek,
and is rising at the rate of three
inches per hour. No great dam
age has yet been done, but the
river is at the danger line, with
every indication of a continued
rise. Navigation is entirely sus-
pended, on account of the freshet.
The water is nearly over the roof
of the wharf, at which the steam
boats land below the st. Clair
street bridge, and the river is full
of drift wood.
This. shows a rise ofabout six =
teen feet since Friday night. The
continued rains will probably
cause a further rise of several feet,
which will flood the lower part of
the town. The river is not, how
ever, expected to get as high as it
did in 1884, when the streets in
the business portion of the town
were under water and rowboats
were seen tied to lamp posts about
State House Square.
Benson creek is out of it's banks
and is as broad as Kentucky river
usually is"
In the first place the river has
not left its banks, nor has the
water reached the roof of the ware
house, on the Custom House
Wharf by nearly three feet, much
less over it. In the next place,
the river did not get out of it's
banks at all in 1884. In 1888 the
river was higher than ever known
before, but did not reach the bus
mess streets of the city, and there
were no boats ever tied up at
lamp posts around the State
House yard. The low grounds,
back of the State House, were over
flowed, as has been the case four
or five times in our knowledge,
but south of the State House
grounds the water never rose to
the streets.
1t was bad enough as it was,
but for pity sake, don't make it
any worse.
We would advise our friend to |
call on some one who knows be-
fore he sends out such misleading
articles as this.

ODD WAYS OF BIRDS.
Two Stories Told by Members of an
Audubon Society.

| From the Baltimore Sum-
Interesting bits of gossip about bird ways
were exchanged by the members of the
Audubon Society at a meeting a day or
two ago Miss Anne Weston Whitney con-
tributed as her share of the gossip some
"reminiscences of a broken-winged crow
that had been prevented by its infirmity
from mngling with others of it's own kind
1t fell into the hands of a college presi-
dent in Virginia, and eventually became
member of the gentleman's family. 1t not
only adapted its birdship to it's surround
ings. but speedily took on some human
traits. Through observation or instinct the
bird discovered that a fireside Is warm
and dry, and one day after having been
out in the rain the bird hoped into the
house stretched out it's wet wings before
the fire and waited there until they were
dry again. On another occasion the bird
showed that 1t possessed some of

The base ingratitude of Oriole as it
had come to the attention of an acquant-
ance was the theme of a story told by Dr.
b. Boiling Barton. The oriole, it seems
had tumbled out of Its swinging nest and
had been picked up by the lady to whom
afterward he was ungrateful. When
the lady attempted to put the bird back in
the nest the bird objected. His little Whim
was respected ana ne was taken into the
house. a diet of worms was furnished
but Mr. Oriole soon showed a taste for the
things that human beings eat. and bread
boiled eggs and sugar took the place of
the worms. He developed a fondness for
candy, and that also was supplied
While he was very charming. he was also
very determined little autocrat. He had
way of waking up his mistress in the
morning and demanding his breakfast of
bread and water After he had been fed he
would take after-breakfast nap on his
mistress pillow. He was full of fun and
enjoyed nothing better than to get hold of
and tangle his mistress hair. In conse-
quence. while the combing process was 60
ing on, this small fluffy creature had to be |
put out of the room.

CHANGING WINE COLORS
Upon the Poor of New
YOrk's East Side

Imposition Upon the Poor of New
YOrk's East Side.
From the New York Evening Post
On the East Side are a number of mon
who make living by changing the colors OF
wine to suit all tastes. They remove the
red in part by filtering it through a mix-
ture of boneblack and charcoal, and alto
gether by treating with charcoal and a
chemical which is believed to be potassium
permanganate. On the other hand. thev
change white wine to red wine by some
dye, using cochineal, logwood, alizarine and
even the poisonous aniline compound known
as fuchsine. They impart a brown tinpe
with caramel. They have a good eve for
color. and do their work quickly and thor
oughly, charging small amount a gallon
for their labor. The customers are nearly
all in the tenement house district. more
especially in the foreign neighborhoods The
Russians, for instance, have a warm love
for several brands of Odessa wine These
Vintages taste very much like California

A General Similarity.
The stone sepulchers do not differ in i'm
portant details one from another, and the
| slight variations observed in the different
localities seem likely to be due more to the
poverty of the builders and lack of ma
terial than to a difference in culture. In
every case it is believed that the hole or
vault opening had been scooped out in the
beginning to a size sufficient for its intend
ed purpose without particular care or
thought as to what the exact dimensions
might be. and when completed, large stones
were rolled over it in such a manner as to
cover and protect the entombed body Sc
curely. Only few of the tombs opened
contained skeletons in a fairly complete
state of preservation. Occasionally it was
possible to secure nearly every bone. This
difference in condition does not indicate
that great length of time intervened be-
tween early and later burials, but it is due
principally to the varying capacity of the
soil to retain moisture.
The entire absence of any object in the
graves, such as pottery or implements of
handicraft of any description, renders diff
cult the task of assigning an accurate date
to the existence of the race. There is good
reason, however, for believing that in the
tombs were buried the makers of the shell
heaps nearby. These shell heaps also con-
tain skeletons. and in some cases stone
utensils and carved objects of rough work.
manship Why these utensils should be
found in the shell heap graves and not in
the stone tombs is, and is likely to remain
a mystery.
FIattened Skulls.
A clue to the racial character Of these
people is obtained from the shape of the
skulls found in the graves. These give
evidence that the people practiced the
method of deforming the head which was
in common use in this until recent
times. A skull from one of the tombs
near Coupeville, Washington shows the
reformation of the Chinook
heads. in which forehead and occiput are
so fiattened as to be nearly parallel. Most
Of the skulls from the Victoria vicinity were
also fattened to a greater or less extent.
A few skulls from other localities suggest
a method of reformation somewhat similar
to that practiced by the Kwakiutl of Brit
sh Columbia, which results in a narrowing
and lengthening of the skull.
Prof. Smiths discovery of the burial re-
mains of this ancient people is particularly |
valuable as throwing light upon a period
when culture was well nigh at its lowest |
sbb on our continent, period of which |
almost nothing is known The results of |

Public GallOws a Century Ago.
From the London News
Even If tho bicycle had been invented a.
hundred years ago, touring could hardly
have become very popular, at all events
for solitary cyclists. The old guide books
were by no means cheerful reading A run
from London to East Grinstead, distance
of five or six and twenty miles, would have
taken the wheelman past three gibbets.

ger posts or public houses have become
now. The traveller approaching York is
directed by the guide books to "turn round
by the gallows and three windmills.' and
the road out to Durham is between the
gallows and Crok chill" Going out of Wells

be CLEANED from the old books for the guild

died suddenly and left us penniless. Flo,

us to a hotel. Then she got a paper and
looked over a list of the theatres. She
selected the Adelphi. then run by Dan
Shelby, real variety theatre. There was
no such swell thing as a music hall in
those days, and nothing like a vaudeville
show. Il was all plain variety business.
She took us down TO Shelby, told Kim
what she wanted, and asked him to hear
us. He just laughed outright when he
looked at us. Flo was just as slight as
was bDad, and We were both so little.
But he was willing enough. The crches-

be found about to play our accompani-

fully, was perched up at the piano and

Since those early days in the variety
business Miss Irwin has had her own
struggles to scale the ladder of fame and
fortune. but she has succeeded even bet
ter than she ever dreamed OF.
AS the Times man left the Irwin dress

new stories in connection with nay life
that an anxious public might care 10 read
about. This making me recall my youth
full days makes me almost forget that

as good as a bottle of spring medicine."
