There has been promise of spring
| in the soft whisperings of the winds
and the amorous caresses of the sun,
| for the past week, which almost de-
| ccives those who know better. and
has completely beguiled many of our
| little feathered brothcrs-the birds
our loyal little friend the rose-breast-
ed grOsbeak, Who stays with us as
long us he can, until the chill winds
OF winter drive him southwark, and
is among the first of the migrating
birds to return, is here. The blue jay
has suddenly remembered that he has
voice. while that dear little .street
gamin, the song sparrow fits brslSly
about, t,now in Il quarrel with his neigh
bors, scolding saucily, now disporting
himself in puddle of water on the
pavement and again fluttering against
! the warm stones of II window ledge to
dry his plumagc, but never for one
moment still.
There are many more beautiful birds
than the song sparrow, but none are
more lovable. He is Il courageous
cheerful and sociable little fellow, TAX
| ing life as it comes, without COM
plaint, and his name Is II synonym for
loyalty. Modesty Is another trait of
his, and he wears his same little brown
coat every month In the year. He has
a short, sweet song which he varies
to suit himself and in the spring when
lie is SO happy that he can scarcely
contain himself, his song is a perfect
lyric of joy. During his love seav0n
the day is too short for him and even
in his dreams he sings sweet songs
to his mate, his notes sometimes being
heard in the dead of night.
The blue joy also stays with us all

handsome bird. the old adage, hand.

lent until late in February, when his
notes commence to be heard.
Totally different in character, though
often cOnfounded with the jay, is the
blue bird, which comes to us early in
March and stays until November,
spending the four months of bitter
winter weather in the South Unlike
the harsh-yoiced jay, the blue bird be-
longs to the family of silver tongues
and his notes are liquid melody.
The rose e-breasted grosbeak is the

cousin, the robin, Sand then, though

when the robin comes spring is at

The robin is an important and bigot-
ted little body and by his very egotism
has managed to relegatc to himself
many of the honors which should go
10 his cousin. Every school child knows
the robin and his song, but many arc
unacquainted with the grosbcak, whose
song is Il glorified version of that of
the robin.

STRUCK BY A LOCOMOTIVE.

The inhabitants Of the lower neigh
borhood called Puffingham, were some
what startled on Friday morning as
the 10 o'clock train went down on
hearing it blow the whistle repeatedly
at what is known as SwifL'S crossing,
and as soon as possible coming to stop,
which would infer an accident. Upt n
investigat ting the cause it was found
that an old gentleman, by the name of
Frank Wells, had been struck by the
engine and hurled several feet in the
air down the hill. The men on the
train came Immediately to his a ssist-
ance and Carl led him into the house,
which was only few feet away. Mr.
Wells is 81 years Of age and had been
to the store that morning a little over
mile away; returning he rested him
self few minutes and thought he
would go out to the river and fish a
little while and in so doing had to cross
the track. He had just stepped on to
to the rail as the cars came upon him.
The engineer saw him, shut of steam,
applied the air brakes and blew the
whistle as soon as possible, but being
SO close it picked him up before they
could stop. Mr. Wells never heard
them or knew his danger until they
struck him. His ankle was badly
bruised and also his hip and side. He
is in critical condition and at his age
in life we would hardly look for any

worse, to witness the self same cere-
mOny which now united the son III U0lS

mother, and carrying beautiful bou-
quet- of arbutus. Her travelling suit
was blue melton cloth. trimmed with
