A negro who gives his nam as Jesse

with stealing chickens from private cit
liens Smith tried to mock the police
officers by selling his stolen property
to the good wife of our excellent chief
of police. On Sunday night Smith
stole eight spring chickens from a ne

Washington. Yesterday morning he
took the chickens to the home of AL

to Mrs. Harrison. Last night the negro
went back and stole four of the chick
ems and sold them this morning TO Mrs.
Freeman. Mr.. Harrison made COM
plaint this morning at police heaiquar-

The common. or banded. rattlesnake

of five feet. with a large triangular and

rats and squirrels and is for the most
part a slow and sluggish animal, wait

The beaver is really a sort of porta'
bic pulp mill. grinding up almost any
kind of wood that comes his way. says
a writer. | once measured a white
birch tree twenty-five inches through
cut down by a beaver. A single bea-
yer generally. If not always. amputates
the tree, and when 1t comes down the
whole family fall to and have a regu-
lar frolic with the bark and branches.
A big beaver will bring down a fair
sized sapling-say three inches through
lin about two minutes and a large
tree in about an hour. The ability of
a bea yer to remain under water for a
long time is not really so tough n prob
lem as 1t looks. When the lake or
pond is frozen over, a beaver will come
to the under surface of the ice and ex-
pei his breath so that it will form o
wide. fat bubble. The air, coming in
contact with the ice and water, is puri.
fed. and the beaver breathes 1t again.
This operation he can repeat several
times. The otter and muskrat do the
same thing.

1t is a remarkable fact that although
there are nearly or quite 100000 flow
ering plants known the relative num-
Der having odor Is wonderfully small,
not more than 10 per cent, in fact. In
connection with this it is noteworthy
that because one species of flower is
endowed with sweet odor it does not
necessarily follow that all or nearly
all or even a fair proportion of the
other species of the same family will
be as favorably endowed. An illustra-
ton of this is found in the familiar
m~ignonette. There are some fifty spe-
cies of this genus known. and of them
all, but one has any fragrance. Nor is
it certain that the most insignificant
looking flower has the greatest fra
GRANGE or the most g%orgeously colored
likely TO be without odor, thus seem
ingly d~isproving the theory that color
and fragrance are given flowers for
the purpose of attracting insects to
assist in cross fertilization.
