Real Live Toy Bird.

Fir woods are the favOrite haunts OF
the gold-crested wren, which has the
honor Of being the smallest Of all the
European birds. From wing to wing,
outstretcbed, ii measured about five
inches, and in its feathers 1t stands
some three and a half inches high.
1t Is busy little thing, and may often
be seen dartlng In and out among the
branches Of a fir In search Of It's insect
food. II one wishes 10 hear its note
one must listen attentively, for, like
itself its voice is petite and pleasant,
but not SO pretty as its owner.

American Apples For China.

The Chinese appetite for fresh fruit Is
strong, and apples are in great favor; the
only obstacle to the creation of a large
market is the inability of the masses to
purchase. The average Chinaman does
pot distinguish the different varieties Of
apples and If inferior grades could be sent
at low rates an extensive outlet could be
created. Northern routes are the best
for shipping green fruits. If the fruit
reaches North China In good condition It
viii keep well on account of the dry, cold
climate. The presence OF the Russians in
Nladivostock. Port Arthur and Dalny will
increase the market for American apples,
as the Russians like this fruit very much.

DOUBLE KILLING ON A BOAT
Mate OF steamer tDubndus Shoots
Two Mexicans.

DAVENPORT, IoWA--There was shoot
Ing ARRAY pn the Diamond 10 steamer Du-
bnque yesterday afternoon between this city
and Clinton, which would rival the old and
bloody days of steanboating on the Mis-
sissippi a Z, s4
AS a result, Chris Leonidas aged 60 years.
and his son. aged f2o, were both shot and
killed by Daniel Breene, mate OF the steamer.
The few passengers on the lower deck, where
the shooting took place, hurried to places
OF safety, and as the i've shots fired by
Bleene rang out over the water the. 200 pas
sengers on the upper deck became greatly
excited.
The shooting was the result Of a dispute
over hhe moving OF some baggage belonging
to Leonidas and son, two Mexicans, who had
been selling patent medicine at Rock Island.
After a few hot words, the Mexicans drew
pistols and bowie knives, at the same tiIne
declaring they would kill Breene. The mate
quickly drew his pistol and fired three shots
into the elder Leonidas, and before the son
could aim his pietol at Breene he had re-
ceived two shots, resulting in instant death.
The two bodies fell but few feet apart.
The boat returned to Davenport and the mate
gave himself up. An inquest was held and
Breene was acquitted, 1t being shown he had
acted In self-defense.
