A Punctual BIRD.

What tempts the little humming
bird that we see In our gardens to
travel every spring from near the
equator to as far north as the arctic
circle, leaving behind him, as he does,
for season, many tropical dellghtsi
He is the orly one Of many humming
birds that pluckily leaves the land Of
gayly colored birds to go into volun-
tary exile In the north, east of the Mis-
sissippl. How 1t stirs the imagination
to picture the solitary, tiny migrant, a
mere atom Of bird life, moving above
the range of human sight through the
vast dome Of the sky! Borne swiftly
onward by rapidly vibrating little
wings, he covers the thousands Of
miles between his winter home and his
summer one by easy stages and ar
rives at his chosen destination. wealth

The privilege of having some one

We are rich In society and yet poor In

DON'T GET TOO FULL.
A Lesson That May he Learned From
the Habits of the Bees.

the Habits OF the Bees.
"Don't stir up a beehive unless you
know II is a rich one" said an apiarist
to a visitor at his bee farm.
II think that l would leave them
alone altogether" was the reply. "They
have too angry a buzz about them to
win my confidence"
you are not used TO them, that's
ALL" said the beeman. For example,
these hives are full Of honey, and II !
pun little smoke Into the doors SO as
to sort Of suffocate the sentries l can
topple hive over, handle the bees
like so many BEANS, clean the honey
combs and carry them or. The bees
won't harm me-" And, to prove his
words, the speaker performed his ex-
pertinent and came back to his friend
with a smile a several heavy combs
Of honey.
"If those hives had been nearly
empty" said the apiarlst. Il would
have been lucky to have escaped with
my life. The tenants OF a poor hive
sting to kill"
'Thats strange" said the visitor
Il should think that they would de-
fend their boards with especial jeal-
ousy, and the more they have the hot.
ter they would fight"
"The reason is," said the beeman,
shat when alarmed the bees fly to
their storehouse and gorge themselves.
When full of honey, bee can't bend
its body and sting"

FEDERAL GRAND JURY TO ACT
The violators Of Uncle Sans Postal
Laws Will Appear Before Grand
Jury on Serious Charge.

Butte, Oct. 23.-P. A. O'Farrell, edi
tor, and A. w. Brouse, business man
ager of Heinze's campaign sheet, gen
orally known as the "Reviler," must
appear before the federal grand jury
and answer a charge of sending OBJ
scene matter through the mails. A
decision to that effect was rendered
at 10 o'clock this morning by United
States Commissioner w. ]. Naughton
after due consideration of the evil
dence presented before him yesterday
afternoon.
r. A. Pelkey, an employe OF Brouse,
and Thomas. o. McGill and w. ID, vii.
marth, cartoonists with the Heinze
sheet, were discharged from custody.
They were arraigned yesterday with
OFarrell and Brouse. After the de-
cision of Commissioner Naughton,

ing Senator w. A. Clark and several

iting the sending of obscene matter
through the mails. The maximum
penalty that can be imposed on per-
sons found guilty OF violating the stat.
ute is a fine of $1,000 and a term of
five years in the penitentiary.

Him While lie Was ksleep.
"The Kanakas OF the Hawaiian Is
lands have about as much fear of the
huge sharks that infest the Hawaiian
waters as we have Of one.month-old
fox terrier pups" said naval officer
who recently returned from the Asiatic
station by way OF the islands. zone
morning a couple Of months ago. when
our ship was lying in Honolulu harbor,
big banana barge. propelled by three
muscular, fine looking, nearly nude
Kanakas. pulled alongside of us TO
peddle the fruit among the men for
ward. Just as they got the barge close
to the ship the three Kanakas began to
jabber excltedly In their queer. musical
language and to feel OF the edges Of
the knives suspended 10y lanyards
around their necks.
"The eyes OF those kanakas were
keener than ours, and they had seen a
big shark asleep dir .ly beneath the
that way that ol 'cts can be seen
through II to great depth. Ii didn't
take those three giant muscled Kama
kas more than ten seconds to shuttle
out of their few clothes. Then they
removed the strings from their long
knives. grasped the knives in their
right hands, stepped gently over the
side of the lighter. hung TO the gun
wales of the lighter with their left
hands for moment or so, and then,
altogether. they gave that queer diving
wriggle to their legs In which they are
so expert and disappeared from the
surface. We couldn't see them going
down oil account OF the commOtion
and consequent bubbles they made in
the water.
"Withm about ten seconds after they
disappeared the bubbles that came to
the surface began to take on the hue
Of blood
"'That about settles one Kanal;a, II
not the whole three OF them said we

saw was gigantic shark thrashing
the water crazily on the port side OF
the lighter and incarnadlning the sea
within radius of fifty feet with Its
blood. Then the three Kanakas came
up, all In bunch, like trio Of jacks
in-the-box, with contentcd smiles on
their faces. The shark thrashed around
for five or ten minutes, and at the end
Of that time he was as dead as any

PRAISE FOR THE PRESIDENT.
Eloquent Pulpit euIOsy Which Was
Delivered by Or. Parkhurst.

Rev. DR.. Parkhurst delivered n ser.
mon last Sunday on Lessons of the
Coal Strike" He closed with this eu.
logy OF President Roosevelt:
1T is right that We should here in
the sanctuary express our sense of
gratitude to God that at a time so in.
volved and so critical there was in
the chair of the chief executive a man
who had sufficient herolsm OF head and
heart to hold the questions that con.
fronted us steadily upon high and
broad lines. The immense risks he
took in assuming in an unconstitution.
al way, the role of intermediary. we
should more easily appreciate il his
action had issued in failure, for men
are estimated not so much by the mag.
nifcence OF their purposes and en-.
deavors as by what they achieve. and
the same men that would have called
him a busy-body II he mad failed are
the very ones that crowd into the
front ranks with their plaudits when
he succeeds.
But il was not so much the hero
ism of his intention that | was think.
ing as of the large way in which he
worked toward the realization of his
intention. Although acting outside of
what would be called authorized lines,
he nevertheless acted with authority,
for in a way that was unique he be-
came the embodiment of the people.
The popular thought uttered itself
through him: he knew 1t and they
knew ii. Without hurting the consti.
tuition he became a little more than
the constitution made him.
I'm keeping with what has just been
said. he subordinated every special
interest to the public interest. He
has a heart for the laboring man. a
head for the capitalist and an all-round
soul for the universal necessities OF
the people and country. Although a
party man, he was larger than both
parties put together ana that is not
saying much (subdued laughter) In
the exercise at this time of his deli
cate stewardship. It is great thing
to see either Republican or Demo-
cratic president stand on the shoul-
ders of his partisan monitors instead
of under their thumbs and forget his
smaller affiliations in his conscious
ness of the people. This feautre Of
his case was made all the more con-
spicuous and noteworthy by the fiut,
tering activity exhibited for couple
of days by discredited patriots from
this state and Pennsylvania. who
threw away their bible. lost their
heads, damned the workmen and ours
ed the operators and turned so much
of heaven and earth as they had a
grip upon to secure a suspension OF
hostilities in time not to imperil the
November elections. This repulsive
aspect of the situation ! mention only
in order to exhibit in stronger relief
the features that are beauteous In
complexion and grand in aspect"
