Why Birds Live Long.

Why do birds live so much longer
than mammals, which are often a hun
dred times their size? Possibly, among
other things, because they have beaks
instead of teeth. All carnivorous
beasts become weak and liable to star
walton, as their teeth drop out or
break. Neither are the herbivorous
animals in much better case. Old
horses would probably die Of starva-
tion II wild, for their teeth would fail
them; indeed, in some stony countries
old horses have to be killed because
their teeth are worn away by cropping
grass close to the rock. Rodents con-
stantly die from injuries to teeth. But
a birds beak neither wears out nor
drops off, and as it constantly swal-
lows fresk grit to aid in grinding food
in the B.2zard that needs no repairing
either.

How the Waiter Lost a Tip.

At one Of the Kansas City hotels
where the colored walters give espe-
cially good service, but always expect
adequate remuneration for the same
from the guests, waiter was espe-
cially officious the other day in serv-
ing a man from whom he expected a
liberal tip. When the meal had been
served and he was standing off at one
eide, eagerly looking for an opportu-
nifty to be of service, he said to the
guest:
Didn't yo' have brothah heah last
week, sah?"
NO" said the one addressed. 81 be-
l;eve not"
WELL" continued the waiter. "theh
was a gem'man heah at nah table
what looked ve'y much like you, and
he was so well pleased with the serv-
ice that he gave me SO cents when he
left"
The guest had by this time finished
his meal, and as he arose he said to
the expectant servitor:
Come to think of it, Sam, that was
my brother that was here. and l guess
he paid you for the whole family. He
may be back again in week or two"

JUDGE PARKER's ACCEPTANCE.

The speech of acceptance OF the
Democratic nomination for President
by Judge Parker has n flavor of an.
tiuuity which will commend 1t to
those Democrats who have kept on
voting for Andrew Jackson all their
lives. He commends Thomas Jefferson
highly and says that that eminent
Democrat summarized in his first in
augural most of the principles upon
which the Democracy now relies. He
does not mention Jefferson's record on
annexation, nor refer to that instru-
ment of government which was enact
ed by the Democratic party for the
government of the new territory OF
Louisiana-an instrument that left the
Inhabitants fewer rights of self-govern-
ment by a great deal than the United
States has accorded to the Fflipinos.
With Jefferson's ideas on the navy
the judge is in full accord. Jefferson
ordered the battleships of his day tied
up at their wharves and built a fleet
of fat-bottomed stern-wheel gunboats
to resist foreign aggression. The Judge
thinks our navy Is entirely too large
and would restrict it to home duties.
AS for the tariff, the Judge says the
Democrats cannot do anything any
how, as the Republicans will have the
Senate; so that is in his opinion elm
mated from the list of vital issues.
One more topic the judge takes up
the Colorado situation. Here his gen.
eral sentiments are admirable, while
its application, as might be ex-
pected, is wide of the mark. He says
every man has a right to work, and
ought to be protected in that right
which is just what Governor Peabody
has maintained all along; but he Is
very sensitive to the wrongs Of the
poor men who have been "deported"
because they were aiding and abetting
had rendered life and liberty impossi-
BILE in the Cripple Creek district.
The Judge is not up to date. His
message would have read well in 1904.
in 1904 Il Is anachronistic.

rapher came from Mr.. Belmont himself
