its journey southwark. At this time it
leaves the swamps. Where does it
go? That is Il question which has new
er yet received satisfactory answer,
although each sportsman and natural
ist has his own opinion, alAi many fine
spun theories have beeH advanced,
Some say that the birds move toward
the north. some that they seek the
mountain tops. coming into the swamps
to feed only after nightfall; some that
they seek the cOrntields. and there
have been many other such theories.
Probably the truth lies in mean of
all these statements. | think 1T prob
able that the birds know the loss Of
their feathers renders them TO a GER
tain extent helpless and more exposed
TO the attacks of their material enemies,
and they therefore leave the more open

most tangled thickets. 1t is certain
that they scatter, for at this season

usual and unexpected places.

vashington.s birthday.

Washington's birthday was made a
legal holiday by vote of the Massachu-
setts legislature April -, 1856; there
fore Feb. -, 1SJ7. was first a legal
holiday. For many years previous
Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis held a recep-

all the people of the city of Boston
were invited. Her house was open to
the public on that day, and before and
after the day became legal holiday
all the military companies of Boston
would parade past her house on the
22d. Probably the first occasion of
Washington's birthday being recog-
nized was Feb. II, 1891. That was by
the French troops at Newport, Il. |. AS
the 11th fell on Sunday, the celebra-

die of the wax insect, scientifically
called COSsus pela. In the early spring
the bark of the boughs and twigs be-
comes covered with brown pea shaped
scales, which can be easily detached
and which, when opened, reveal the
fioWery looking mass of minute ami
mails, whose movements can just be
detected by the naked eye. In May
and June, however, the scales are
found to contain swarm of brown
creatures with six legs and two an
tenn@ each. Some of the scales also
contain the white bag or cocoon of a
small black beetle, which. if left undis-
turbed, burrows into and consumes
the scales. The Chinese say that this
beetle eats the little wax insects. and it
appears certainly the case that where
the parasite is most abundant the
scales fetch a lower price in the mar

UNCLE TOM STILL At LHRGE.

We are always interested in the
Phoenix Gazette. It's intellectual
standard is high, and when it assumes
or declares something, the ordinary
heather rad better beware
A few days ago we found wandering
among the intellectual fantasies of the
Gaze tie something approximating this
regarding the sale of niger. OF
course the Gazette wouldn't write
"nigger'-not on your life-but it is
one of the advantages of being DEM
ocrat that you can do and say what
you damn please.
Here is about what the Gazette said;
"a negro is to be sold into years
servitude for vagrancy in Kentucky if
a master can be found to bid for him.
In default of purchaser it is said that
the officials will be somewhat puzzled
what disposition to make of him. The
place is Shelbyville, which has pleas
ing Uncle Tom flavor to its name"
If no master is found, although we
think we have recorded the purchase
and sale in our news columns some
days ago. it will still be possible 10
effect such a sale without going out of
this happy land of freedom. Not
many years ago the Springfield Repub-
iican was accustomed to make an an
nual cutlery against the survival in
various towns in western Massachu-
setts of the old New England custom
of selling paupers by auction. 1t is a
fair presumption that the bosom of
reform has not yet swept the last YES
tice u that venerable practice quite off
the stage. Assuming that it still lin
gers lovingly in few rural localities
in Massachusetts and her sister States
of the New England group, this Ken
tucky negro could be shipped to that
region. and, when the regular yearly
selling of paupers comes off, coIld be

bidder who wins in these pauper auc-
tions. The oyerseers of the poor, who
are generally the seectmen of a town
advertise that at given time and
place bids will be received for the sup
port of the paupers, individually.
Each pauper goes to the home where
his keeping will be least costly to the
town. But of course care is taken to
prevent the poor wretches from falling
into the hands of improper custodians
The New England people are not spe-
cially cruel or brutal. The abuse of 4
pauper would not be tolerated
We suppose the progress of civiliza-
ton has not left many towns still in
the practice of this method of proyid-
ing Tor the poor. The idea of pau
per auction is essentially repulsive. NO
