Churc hill i'm 0liGicS
By James Meade Adams

THE Republican caucus was drawing to a close,
the candidates for speaker, clerk, assistant clerk
and sergeant-at-arms having been nominated, when
Winston Churchill, novelist and member of the
New Hampshire Legislature, rose, slowly and grace
fully unfolded himself and with smile upon his
face advanced to the front and addressed the chair
"Mr. Chairman" he said &C rise to forlorn
hope 1t is to ask for an office for Sullivan County
l wish to present the of worthy Repub
hcan and war veteran for the position of door
keeper. l am fully aware that the mind of living
man scarcely goes back to time when the
County of Sullivan received political recognition,
and do not suppose it can expect it now. Sulli-
van County is not the map in Frank
Sanborns history of New-Hampshire. But small
though it is Sullivan County deserves recognition,
and l present the name of man for the modest
office of doorkeeper who is worthy of your votes.
Churchills little speech lasted about three min
utes, winding up with the name of war vet
eran residing in the southern part of Sullivan
County, who aspred to the Office of doorkeeper in
the New Hampshire House of Representatives.
AS we'll phrased humorous utterance 1t was fair

could have been Perhaps Churchill did
not know the hard-headed politicians he was adj
dressing well enough to understand that he killed
whatever chance his candidate may have had by
his first sentence, and effectually buried him by
succeeding ones
The next morning the defeated candidate for
doorkeeper, sore both over his defeat and the
of the presentation of his name, met political
acquaintance from another part of the State at
the hotel breakfast table.
Were you at the caucus last night?" he asked.

''Mackafee's Confession" in which conscience
stricken sinner relates how he had poisoned all of
his seven wives. The confession is the result of
the fact that in his visions and dreams the seven
wives appear I'm body" if not in the body and
stand all night long by his bedside pointing ac-
cusing fingers toward him and in ghostly whispers
commanding him to confess.
Another ballad tells of a 1ove-lorn maiden who
committed suicide because of unrequited love.
We are told that her dying words fol-
lows:
On my breast place turtle dove
For to let the world know that died for love:
And in my hand place silver spoon,
For to let the world know that died too soon.
Just how a silver spoon to convey the idea
of premature death not made apparent in
the ballad
1t is difficult to trace the origin of many of
these old ballads which, crude they when
regarded literary compositions, are an interest
ing addition to American folklore and
worthy of preservation that account. From
these dismal and fearful ballads to the hilarious
and grin provoking rag time" songs of our own
day is far cry, but both have their place and
purpose in any written history of vocal music in
country.

When a special decacy like brown-bread or

pecially catcher" l empty the large scrap basket
and turn it on side, and they all get upon it
and roll and tip it from side to side, playing this
game for about twenty minutes.
The cage door stands open all the day long now,
and the birds play contentedly all about the room,
flying across the street only once or twice day.
AS their wings clipped, they have to be brought
back home They fly around Tiptoe and Yankee,
lying by the fire, and not disturbed by their
presence.
Sonny and Squanto have two black spots on
their foreheads All three have little roer-shades
their eyes, which they pull back and forth
continually.
People who know whereof they speak tell me
that it always is possible to tell when there is
snake after the chickens, because the jays i'm
medately call Snake snake snakel" and when
ever they see anyone coming to despatch it they
scream loudly: Kill it! Kill ill.,
1t is singular fact that on each ta-feather the
black bars extend only halfway across. They
do not reach the part of the feather which
is covered by the feather next to it. On the center
ta-eather, however, the black bar reaches all the
way across This peculiar economy in tinting holds
good in the wing-feathers we'll

will not touch their beloved beef after five

their pretty heads under their wings and shut out

it is amusing to watch Dixie Baby. He eats all his

When they are left alone Dixie Baby screams in

transferred into their large cage After fruitlessly
beating their wings against the sides of the cage
for an hour more, they all three have gone to

seemingly happy in their captivity.
Dixie Baby eats twice much corn as the others
do for he has sense enough to turn the pointed
end of the grain toward his beak. He evidently
knows that in this way he reaches the heart more
quickly than the duller birds
They extremely fond of raw Irish and sweet

A wild blue Jay lighted on the cage while ago.
whereupon the kitten Yankee jumped upon the
cage for the first time, and frightened the little bird
nearly to death. Hang! hang hang!" cried all
the jays at once. I did not lynch poor Yankee,
however, they begged to do, but called to
my assistance the huge St. Bernard dog Tiptoe.

Did Lincoln Say it.

 The Cleveland Plain-Dealer cannot find any authentic record that Lincoln ever made the remark familiarly at tributed to him about the impossibillty of fooling all the people all the times Coloney Hay, who went over Ltncoln'S speeches, papers. letters, and recorded saysings with minute care while writ ing Lincoln's biography. is quoted as saying that he never came across that remark Librarian Spofford, great repository of detailed knowledge about American statesmen. believes that the man who said what was said about fooling the people was not Lincoln at all. but Phineas T.. Barnum, who had a long and eminently successful expe- rience with the people, and was en- titled to rank as an authority on popu- lar gullibility It does not matter.
