CAN CROWS TALK?

The Bangor Daily News propounded the
question, "Can Crows Talk ?" and Everett
Staples of Stockton Springs responded in
the aft lmative in an interesting letter pub
lished in the News last Saturday. Mr.. Sta
pies tells of the accomplishments in this
line of a tame crow in the possession of
Walter Trundy of Stockton Springs in 1908.
He says:
His most common linguistic indulgence,
like that of an infant, required at first some
exercise of the imagination, but presently
was very clearly: "Walter, where's Carl? -
After few repetitions he was quite apt
to say softly "Where's Carl? where's Carl?
where's Carl ?" in tones most distinct.
To induce him to speak at will was usu-
ally difficult, except the attempt was made
by familiar child, vet persons passing in
carriages were usually aroused by clear
cut "hello,' and at nearly all times he
would respond in kind to the well known,
two-note boys call, "hoo-hoo." Frequently
he would break IA long silence by shouting
'father," sometimes by "ho"'
His utterances were always delivered
with delberation and considerable evident
effort and repeated several times with the
exception of his cear-toned ''hoO- hoo"
From IA man whose veracity is above
question, learn that he once said: "Good
morning, Mr.. Randall with great clear
ness.
Now it is well known that the raven, I.
member of the crow family and closely re-
sembling that bird, has the power of
speech; and is it not possible that this was
a raven? The writer recalls when a small
boy seeing raw ems nest on Shorey's (now
Gardiner's) island, so that these birds are
found in Maine

THE NEWS OF BROOKS.

c. E. Lane has so far recovered from his
long illness as to be able to drive over to
the Monroe fair last week.
Mr.. Alvin Barden of Etna died at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Ii. L. Peavey,
in Brooks, Sept Goth. The interment will
be in the Bennett cemetery in Plymouth.
Mrs. Reynolds, widow of the late Hon l..
G. REYNOLDS, will leave the farm and move
to her residence in this village this week.
She will have for a companion Mrs. Collier,
widow of the late Joel Collier.
c. f. Felker, who spent some time at the
Bangor General Hospital, has at last sue
cumbed to his disease and died at his home
in Monroe last week. He was 81 years of
age and was one of the prominent farmers
of his town and strong, capable business
man.
The first Sunday in October is to be OBJ
served as Harvest Sunday at the Union
church. Harvest Home Grange has ac-
copied an invitation to attend in a body
and all members of the order have an invi-
tation to join. Rev. j. W. Vaughan, the
regular pa tor, will deliver sermon APP
propriate to the occasion and the church
will be decorated appropriately for the day.
The Portland Packing Co. is doing a rush
ing business at their sweet corn packing
factory here. There is a good crop of corn
in spite of the late weather the first OF the
season. This crop brings in some money
for the farmers and makes a safe business
for them as the fodder will in any event
pay for the planting. The creamery is also
we'll patronized and makes safe means for
ready money and adds to the available
wealth of this and surrounding towns.

A PERSIAN CUSTOM.

An interesting custom prevails
among the nomad tribes of Persia.
Before becoming eligible for mar
riage every girl has to prove her
skill by weaving two very fine rugs
or saddle bags. 1t is this class of
work which is particularly priced in
Europe and America. In 1904 a law
was re-enacted by the Persian Gov
eminent by which the Customs De-
partment was instructed to seize and
burn all carpets in the manufacture
OF which anjline dyes were used. A
total cessation of exports resulted,
and, owing to the hardship inflicted
by the decree the manufacturers were
granted certain period of grace in
which to dispose of their stock of car
pets.-New York Press.

ANTI-sEAsIcK DECK CHAIRS.

| The Hamburg Steamship
Company announces the installation
of new chair to prevent seasickness.
The apparatus is very simple, and
conaist only of a small electric motor
which keeps the seats of specially
made chairs in constant motion.
Passengers who are liable to sea-
sickness take their places on the
chairs, and experience a similar feel
i ing to that of driving in motor car.
1t is claimed for the chair that the
up and down vibratory movement rem
ders the pitching, heaving and rolling
of vessel less perceptible, as the
! lengthy downward motions of the ship
become neutralized by the rapid sue
cession of vibrations impaired by the
chair.
The results achieved with the chairs
| fitted on board the liner Patricia have
exceeded all expectations, and dur
ing a recent voyage between Ham
gers could hardly be persuaded to
quit their seats for any length of
time.
Many persons who invariably sui
fered when crossing were able to en-
joy the voyage, no disagreeable symp-
toms manifesting themselves after
the chair had been tried.
The idea originated with a we'll
known chemist, DR.. Brendel, who test
ed it in several voyages. In addition
to the Hamburg American boat Patri-
cia, the channel steamship Peregrine
has also been equipped with few of
the chairs.-Paris Edition of the New
York Herald.

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.

Our record is not one to be proud
of, but it must be judged not by a
comparison of mere numbers, but in
connection with mileage and traffic;
the proportional increase of accidents
in 1905 is very much smaller than the
increase of traffic. Last year about
45,000,000 passengers were safely car
ried to one killed, comfortable show
ing. Even when the figures of for
eign roads are marshaled against us,
it will be well to remember that the
American passenger mileage is about
one half of the tonnage is more than
double that of all Europe; that the
average speed of trains here is great
er, and that the railways right of way
in Europe is not commonly used as
public ighway.-Philadelph Led

GUIDING UP TO REQUIREMENT
A Kansas City man purchased
lot with the restriction that he should
not build a house on it to cost less
than $4,000. After having paid for
the lot he decided to build a 81, 500
cottage, says the Kansas City Jour
nal.
Before he had completed it the real
estate man from whom he had bought
the lot threatened to sue him for
breach of cantract. This little shack
you are building" said the real es-
tate man, lacks whole lot of being
a $4,000 house, such as you agreed to
build"
Don't form too hasty a judgment"
replied the owner. True, 1t hasn't
cost that much yet, but intend to put
solid gold brick in the chimney"
