Broke TN Machinery.

Will Shepard, a negro who for
some time past has been employ
ed as night fireman at the new
plant of the Columbus Brick Co,
on Military road. reported that
on Monday night two white men
entered the place and with pis-
tolls leveled on him unscrewed
the brass mountings from the en-
CINE and took them away with
them. Later the brass work was
found hidden nearby. SO the tale
of the negro was exploded. There
is an air of mystery about the af-
fair which the officers Of the law
are making an effort to clear up.

that other portions of the sea have

BIRD LIGHTS STREET LAMP
Nesting Wren Pulls Onain Attached
to Gas and Apparatus Flares
Up Unexpectedly.

In a suburban town where the
streets are lighted by gas lamps, a
curious thing happened. A gen.
tleman noticed that for several
nights the gas was not lighted in
front of his house and reported the
matter to the gas company. The
lamplighter who had the street in
charge was sure that he had
lighted it each night.
Later the gentleman noticed
that the lamp was often lighted
throughout the day and decided
that some mischievous boy was
responsible for it. Keeping a
close watch for the offender, he
was astonished to see the light
fash up when not soul was near
it. He placed a ladder against tho
post and climbed up to investi.
gate the matter. He found that
the two chains which turned the
light on and off moved SO easily
that the slightest touch was sum.
cient to send them up or down.
But they could not move of their
own weight nor by the wind. Still
more puzzled, the man returned
to his watch at discreet distance
and was soon rewarded by seeing
a wren fly to the lamp, perch itself
on the ring at the end of the chain,
and give it pull which lighted
the gas. He then remembered
that a wren had reared a brood In
the lamp that year.

BLONDES ARE DIsLIKED.
Girl with straw-Colored Hair Finds
Securing an ONCE Posi-
ton Difficult.

The young woman was OF per-
feet blonde type. Her hair was
straw-colored. With an air of yex-
alton she said to a writer for the
Philadelphia Bulletin:
Though am an expert stenog-
rapher, find it difficult, on account
of my straw-colored hair, to get
work. Men think that my hair is
bleached, and they hesitate to en-
ploy a bleached blonde, for they
know well that she who would
bleach her hair to so conspicuous a
hue as mine would have soul too
frivlous for sober typewriting and
shorthand.
"When / was out of work last
year i had to apply to six Offices be-
fore i could get place. Three of
the men to whom ] applied didn't
test my ability in any way. They
said lamely that they were sorry,
but they preferred an older, a more
sedate person. Two men, after a
brief talk, admitted that my work
suited them, but had to admit also
that their wives had peculiar
views, and would object to my pres
ence in their husbands Offices.
''The man who engaged me was
a bachelor. He, too, was about to
repulse me, when l broke out des-
perately with:
'Iook here, ! am not bleached
blonde. My hair is straw-colored
naturally. II yeg object &c Il, III 4
wear a brown wig during working
hours
'The manlaughed and took me
on. He has told me since, though,
that he would not have taken me
but for my frank outburst.
''Hair like mine is perhaps beau
tiful, but it is a serious drawback
to an honest working girl"

Don't Shoot Hawks.

Why shoot the chicken hawk
when it comes within range. Why
shoot any hawkP True, we all do
so, or have done so. But why 2
For the most part, we fear, because
we were simply savages out to Stay ;
indeed, more savage than the saw
ages, for the latter rarely killed an
finals which were not dangerous or
which could not be used. Now,
about the hawk, let US go once
more to Uncle Sam, who is passing
wise in many things. Uncle Sam
has been study ing hawks. Of 124
stomachs of marsh hawks which
were examined, As per cent of the
hawks had been feeding on mice,
Is per cent on other small mammals,
Is per cent on reptils, frogs and in
sects and only very low percent
age on poultry and small birds.
We do not find that this bird was
SO very destructive to quail and
cartridges after all; and it is un-
der this latter superstition that
sportsmen shoot hawks when they
find opportunity. Uncle Sam con-
cludes that the marsh hawk is a
beneficial bird and that it's presence
and increase should be encouraged
in every possible way. Then why
shoot it down, as it fits by, striy-
ing in its own ancient and appoint
ed way, to get on in the world, juet
as each of us is striving. We
council each sportsman to think
the matter over, and to remember
that the results of scientific invest
igation are more conclusive than
hasty suggestions.

it was bitterly sour. My philoso-

of course, the fruits in Eden were

was wondering whether the fall
