DAUGHTERS OF AMERICAN REV.
 OLUTION.

Interesting Innovation Planned by Po-
 quonock Chapter for an Arbor Day
 Celebration.
 Arbor day as it will be celebrated on May Sth by Poquonock chapter. Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, of Poquonock, will be of an in- teresting character. The chapter has sent out invitations to the various gov- ernors of the thirteen original states, requesting that each one. send a tree to be called the Governors Tree'' of the particular state from which 1t is sent. Besides these, invitations have also been extended to the state regents of the various chapters of the thirteen states to send a small tree. These will be called Daughters trees" and will keep company with their, brothers, the governors gifts, on the borders of a small lake in Poquonock, notable for its natural beauties and attractiveness. There has already been received from Mrs. Hough of the Faith Humble chapter of Norwich, Conn, a grand child of the original charter oak. The stripling has been planted and is success is already assured.

with Newfoundland dog. When the
 dog broke his leg the raven waited on
 him constantly, catered for him, forget
 ting for the time his own greediness,
 and rarely, if ever, left his side. One
 night, when the dog was by accident
 shut within the stable alone, Ralph suc-
 ceeded in pecking a hole though the
 door, all but large enough to admit his
 body.
 Another, kept in a yard in which a
 big basket sparrow trap was sometimes
 set, watched narrowly the process from
 his favorite corner, and managed, when
 the trap fell, to lift it up, hoping to get
 all the sparrows within. They, of
 course, escaped before he could drop the trap But, taught by experience, he
 opened communication with another
 tame raven in an adjoining yard, and
 the next time the trap fell, while one of
 them lifted it up, the other pounded
 upon the quarry.
 A female raven known at that time to be 60 years of age, and who had passed much of her early and middle
 age with a strange companion, blind
 porcupine, was given, in the year 1854, oy J. II. IuIuSy, lIle Well-kilOWn Ornl-
 thologist, to the rector of Bluntisham, in Huntingdonshire. She seemed so disconsolate at the loss of her sur
 roundings that her new owner, failing to get another raven, managed to se-
 cure seagull for her as companion. A warm friendship soon sprang up be- tween the two birds. They followed one another about everywhere, and the raven often used to treat her compan- ion to pieces of putrid meat which she had buried for her own consumption in the shrubberies. These were delicacies in the eyes of the raven, but they were not so good for the gull. Tn course of time, whether from indigestion or not the gull fell i'll and the raven became more assiduous than ever in her atten- tions, never leaving him and plying him with her most nauseous tidbits. The gull grew Worse as was perhaps natur- al under the treatment, and less com- panionable, and one day, when he pos ftively refused to touch a more unsav- ory morsel than usual, which the raven had denied to herself and doubtless thought to be a panacea, the raven, in a fit of fury at the ingratitude of her patient, fell upon her friend killed it. tore it to pieces, and burying half of it for future consumption, devoured the rest.-Ninteenth Century.

STORIES ABOUT RAVENS.

Fidelity to Mates and Their Queer Com

 The raven always pairs for life, and the strength of affection, the fidelity, the dignity which this implies seem to me to raise him indefinitely, as it does the owls, above birds which congregate in fiocks, and so abjure family ties and duties through greater part of the year.
