Amateur Made a Mistake.

An amateur cornet player, who makes
life burden to his neighDors in a mar
row downtown street, applied the other
day to the conductor OF a local theatre
for employment. It SO happened that the
conductor was badly In need Of cornet
player. Greatly impressed by the appl-
cant's account OF himself and his playing.
and also being In a great hurry, lie en-
gagged the lad at once and told him to be
on hand the same night. The overture
that evening was 'Tannhauser," and the
new recruit made a CHASTITY mess OF his
share In It. When at last 1t was over,
the purple-faced conductor bent down
to the amateur and said in angry tones:
You wretched scoundrel! / thought
you could play"
so did til I came here, replied tho
cornet player, getting up and putting
away his instrument, and aren't we both
jolly we'll sold?" And with that the
amateur disappeared with alacrity.-

SPEED OF sToRKs.
They Can Fly at Rate 100 Miles
an Hour for Many Hours.

No living thing. not even a. scared
Jackrabbit. can travel with the speed
displayed by such birds as the stork
and the northern bluethroat. Not only
do these birds fy with n speed that can
hardly be conceived but they keep up
their rapid flight for 100 or 1000 miles
at a stretch without apparently firing.
Evidence has been collected recently
which shows that the blnetllroat flies
from Central Africa to the shores or
tho North Sea, distance Of 1850 niles,
In less than a day and q night, and NAL.
ing It., moreover, In one uninterrupted
flight. The storks which spend their
summers In Austria Hungary and their
winters In india and Central Africa, are
marvellous travellers and make their jour-
r,eyB twice year In unbroken flight each
time. I'll.
From Budapest, III Hungary, to La
hore, In India, is about 2.400 miles IN an
air line. and the storks make tho jour
ncy in I'd hours. thus travelling at the
rate of 100 miles an hour for the whole
distance. Tho storks which spend the
summer in Central Europe and the vim
ter in Central Africa travel with the
same rapidly. i$
Slatin Pasha.. an Austrian in tho SER
vice OF the Khedve, and now governor
&
fur, was for many years a captive IN
the hands OF the Nlahdl and the Khalifa
when the dervishes killed Gordon, and
established their empire, now over
thrown. In the Soudan. One day. at
Omdurman, he saw a stork with g. metal
band attached to one OF its legs. He
caught the bird. and found engraved up.
on the band the name Of an old friend
In Austria. sef3 &
He wrote e. note to his friend and tied
1t to the metal band. When the stork
returned to Austria for the summer the
friend saw the letter. caught the stork
and read the message, which was the

THE SONG OF THE BEE.

Buzzy! Buzzy
This lis the song OF the bee;
His legs arc Of yellow,
Jolly good fellow
And yet a great worker Is he,
In days that are sunny,
lies making his honey;
In days that are cloudy,
He's making his WAX;
On pinks and on lilies
And gay daffodlllles,
And columbine blossoms,
IIe levies his tax,
