Stork Swiftest Of Birds.
Chicago Chronicle.

There are certain species of ducks
that are given the credit by natural
lists OF being the feetest of winged
creatures. Recently, however, it has
been ascertained that the learned
men were in error, and the stork is
found to outstrip by far all denizens
of the air in speed. After an exhaus.
tive survey of the field it is now de-
clared that no living thing, not even
q scared jsckrabbit, can travel with
the speed displayed by such birds as
the stork and the northern bluethroat.
Not only do these birds fly with a
speed that can hardly be con ceived,
but they keep up their rapid flight
for 1000 or 1000 miles at q stretch
without apparently firing.
Evidence has been coll ected recent.
ly which shows that the bluethroat
flies from central Africa to the shores
of the North Sea, distance of 1000
miles, in less than day and a night,
and making it, moreover, in one un.
interrupted fight.
The storks which spend their sum-
mer in Austria-Hungary and their
winters in India and Central Africa
are also marvellous travellers and
make their journeys twice q year in
unbroken flight each time. From
Budapest, in Hungary, to Lahore, in
India, 10 2, 400 miles in an air line, and
the storks make the journey in "a
hours, thus travelling at a rate OF 100
miles an hour for the whole distance.
The storks which spend the summer
in Central Europe and win ter in Cen.
trail Africa travel with the same rap.

The Smallest Bird.

William Lowell Finley in Country Calendar.
"When first crawled in among the
bushes close to the nest, the little
mother darted At me and poised q
foot from my nose, as If to stare me
out of countenance. She looked me
all over from head to foot twice, then
she seemed convinced that was harm.
less. She whirled and sat on the nest
edge. The bantlings opened wide
their hungry mouths. She spread her
tail like flicker, and braced herself
against the nest side. She craned her
neck and drew her dsgger-)ike bill
straight up above the nest. She
plunged it down the baby's throat to
the hilt, and started q series of ges.
lures that seemed fashioned to pune
tuate him TO the toes. Then she
stabbed the other baby until it made
me shudder. 1t looked like the mur.
der of infants. But they we're not
mangled and bloody; they we're get
ting q square meal after the usual
humming-bird method OF regurgita-
ton. Then ran out their slender
tongues to lick the honey from their
lips. How they liked it! Then she
settled down and ruffled up her breast
feathers to let her babies cuddle Gloss
to her naked bosom. Occasionally,
she reached under to caress them with
whisperings OF motherloye."

we'll as the hotel and theater lobbies,
and, in fact, all much-frequented
places.
This applies to the business section
of the cities to q very great degree, fol
the reason that suitable places In
the residential sections for pay sta.
tions are difficult TO secure, but it is
the desire of the telephone companies
TO offer the most liberal accommoda-
tions Of this character and the prob.
lem of increasing the number OF pub.
lie stations in the residence portions
of the cities is matter which has
been given some considerable atten-
tion.
With this view in end, there is about
to be introduced into q number OF
the larger cities a street corner tele-
phone service, which will not only be
the means of affording great accom-.
modations to the persons living in the
vicinity, but will also in great meas
ure be tho means of breaking up the
practice OF annoyance to which sub
scribers are subjected from their
neighbors using the instruments in
emergencies.
These instruments have been iu
experimental use in the city Of Bridge
port, Conn.,, for some time, in order to
ascertain their value in practice. and
the result was very encouraging, and
as stated above. their use will be ex
tended at once.

BIRD INITIATES AUTO HORN.
Green Parrot Screams With Joy at Psdes-
trians' Fright.

The green bird that spends her after.
moons in cage on q New York street
must be the first automobile parrot on
record. Her vocabulary for the most
part was: "Polly wants q cracker" "
The other afternoon she realized that
was trite and set to work to devise
something newer.
While she was plunged in profound
contemplations an automobile whizzed
by with a startling "Honk! honk %
Polly for an instant WAS iIritated and
disturbed, and screamed back an an
swering "Honk! honk" 1t was a
poor effort, but it gave her thought,
and she practiced the sound.
She got it at last. Tickled might
lily, she climbed to her wooden perch,
where she could see the street, and
prepared to give the public the benefit
OF her new powers.
On the curbstone below stood q wo.
man who had essayed to cross the
street just as huge automobile footed
its warning. She had jumped back to
the sidewalk.
The woman now started across
again. "Honk! honk" startled her
again, and she sought safety. AS far
as the eye could reach not an automo-
bile was in sight. Then she started
over for the third time, and though
the air WAS filled with whistles and
toots and "honks," she kept on.
Polly waited for more victims. She
timed her limitations nicely, and when
ever any person started to cross the
street the parrots Honk! honk !"
would send him or her backward in
surprise. One of a party of half q
dozen women, when she heard Polly's
automobile imitation, did not stop to
nee where the machine was, but pick
ing up her skirts, ran hastily across
the street. The laugh raised by q
crowd on the opposite curbstone was
answered by scream of Joy from the
green parrot.

MATTERS OF INTEREST.

The Supreme Court OF Missouri has
decided that fraternal insurance com.
panies cannot legally reject policies
upon which three or more annual pre-.
miums have been paid, but that the
insured, after making three payments,
has acquired an equity of which he
cannot be deprived.
Luther Burbank, the California wiz.
ard, has originated aud brought to
perfection two new flowers, q yellow
calla lily and white rhodanthe. The
latter is q flower OF the everlasting"
variety, and is expected to rival the
Australian star flower which created a
sensation in the world of millinery.
Apostle George A. Smith, OF the
Mormon Church, says in an interview
there that "polygamy was instigated
when there was . preponderance OF
women" in Utah. The kindness OF
the Mormon brethren in thus taking
care of the forlorn females who other.
wise might never have had q chance,
is touching.

LAWYERS HAVE OBLIGATIONS.
Judge A. B. Parker Outlines them Besore
Illinois Attorneys.

Judge Alton B. Parker addressed
the Illinois State Bar Association at
the Chicago Beach hotel recently on
"The Lawyer in Public Affairs" Judge
Parker was greeted with hearty ap-
plsuse.
Parker's address dwelt upon the
scope of men who follow the law as a
profession, and of their relations to
the politics and public life of the
country. He reviewed at length the
prominent part taken by lawyers in
the public discussions from the days
of the l3 colonies to the present. In
the course of his address he said:
