A Legend.

In Suffolk, England, robins are safe
from boys who hunt birds nests, it
being considered unlucky to interfere
in any way with the bird that min
istered to our Lord on the cross. The
tradition is that robin tried to pinch
the thornS from our Saviours head,
and that its breast was stained with
his blood. "A robin once died in my
hand" said a boy who could not keep
his pen steady enough to write; 'and
if a robin dies in your hand, it will
ALWAYS shake"

Chief Of the warriors brave;

He had many scalps to wave.
Well at length a voting Jesuit came
To instruct them in the truths of God;
Bur these Indians were not tame,
They quickly felled him to the sod.

The hands that God had blest:
Bound them with ropes and bands
His soul would soon have rest.
But Natoocha. like one before her.
Inrew herself in Latoka's arms:

Could not fight against her charms.

nounced Soon.

Officials of the three railroads inter-
ested in the proposed Center street via
duct are preparing TO make before the
commissioners, at the final hearing, the
gathering statistics in this city for that
purpose. For the past two days man
has been stationed at the Center street
crossing, both day and night. keeping
count of the number of teams which
pass that point. How long this will
continue is not known, but it is known
that the railroads will leave no stone
nntuned in their effort 20 kill the pro-
posed improvement when 1t comes up
in Des Moines in a few weeks.
When a member of the special via
duct committee, appointed by the
council several months ago. was in
formed of the doings of the railroads.
he stated that 1t was more than likely
that the council would also place men
at the crossing, so that It might be in

for the hearing has as yet been set,

A. that time Chairman Merritt Greene.
Of the committee, was absent from the
city, so that nothing final could be
done. Since his return City Solicitor
c. n. Van Law has written the COM

would be satisfactory 20 the council.
