The State Board of Pardons
met at the capitol last Tuesday.
There were about thirty five ap-
plications on file, some of which
we're continued from the previous

The case of 81. B., 1893, was
taken under advisement.
Those cases continued were:
O. A., 1895; A. w., 1871; W. B.

As far as we can learn from the

Birds That -
Fly Backwards.

As general rule all birds fly
headforemost, but there are a few
exceptions to this rule. Some
birds of prey, when lowering over
some object, will often be blown
backwards; and a great many of
them can fly sideways for short
distance. I have often observed
the common kingfsher, while
watching fish, move in any d.
rection without turning around.
The humming bird gives us the
best example of flying backwards.
I have seen these little, winged
jewels back out of flower in al
most any direction, sometimes
with their tails straight up and
heads down. They can also fly
sideways. It is my opinion that
they can fly tsilforemost as easily
and as fast as they can headfore-
most. My reason for 80 believing
is grounded on single experiment
which I tried some years ago.
/ had been reading an article
describing the method used by
professional humming bird hunters
to capture these poor innocents.
The method used, was to fix a
small ball of wax to the end of a
long, slender pole, then quietly
approach the bird while it was sit
ting on tree and slowly push the
ball of wax toward him. When it
was close enough he would peck
at it, and thus get his bill fast in
the soft wax; and soon adorn some
woman's bonnet.
l had long been wanting to catch
and examine one of these birds,
so l thought l would try the ex-
pertinent on a pair which, after
feeding, would sit on a low twig
of large willow and clean their
feathers. I provided myself with
a long linen thread and ball of
pitch, little larger than a pea,
which I fixed to one end of it..
When [ saw the birds feeding [
climbed the tree so as to be about
ten feet above the twig they usu-
ally sat on. When they alighted
[ let down the string some distance
from them, and slowly moved it
towards them. When it was
within an inch of one, the indig-
nant little fellow pecked at it and
could not withdraw his bill. I
jumped down with the little fellow
beating the air at the end of the
thread, and when | was clear of
the trees, he flew around, tailfore-
most, at the end Of the string
several times, easily carrying the
ball of pitch, and thread, which
weighed nearly half as much as
the bird himself.
I would not advise anyone else
to try the experiment, as one has
to use grease to remove the
pitch, and it is liable to result in
the death of the bird. And, too,
they cannot stand much rough
handling DICK.

Che Critic Gxeept$.

':In his remarks the critic said
that the selection played was more
to his liking than the classical
music furnished on former occas-
ions, when, as matter of fact, what
he had just listened to was strictly
classic. ~
Fully sensible of all that the
foregoing implies, and not unmind-
full of my own limitations, I desire,
nevertheless, to enter a good-na-
tured exception to the foregoing
paragraph quoted, which appeared
in the last issue of The MIRROR,
under the initials of my esteemed
friend, E. B. d., secretary to the
Pierisn Circle. What I did say in
connection with the piano solo, to
which be referred in his report,
was as follows, AND NOT OTHERWISE:
q quote from my notes.)
These musical numbers impart
a certain relish to the literary part
of our programs that cannot and
evidently does not, fail of appreci-
alton. They are melodic cocktails,
as it we're, in fact the one to which
we have just had the pleasure of
listening may be likened unto a
bousse-eatS mixed in seven colors.
in that it was a septuple medley.
There is something about music
that appeals to a touches the
well-springs of his better nature,
as it we're. Shakespeare has said
"A man that hath not music in
himself, nor is not moved with con-
cord of sweet sounds, is fit for trea-
son, strategems and spoils.' Bar
ker-he of the Lyceumite- whose
sayings are usually pithy, generally
true, and never trite, has said that:
Men admire classical music, they
enjoy the other kind and, I dare
say, this is especially true Of the
members comprising the Pierian
Circle. In the final analysis a
performers popularity will largely
depend on his ability to please the
greatest number, and I have some
times thought that Mr.. G. was un-
fortunate in his selections, in that
they are almost invariably classical.
