sparrows Beaten by a Hen.

Few mothers have triumphed over
more difficulties in the rearing Of
their families than Nellie. a little
brown hen whose home is in a box
on the bank Of the Chicago River.
near North avenue. Besides the per-
Ills OF steam and street cars. OF heavy
traffic and deep bitches, Nellie has
been forced, literally. to fight for the
protection OF her brood ever since
she brought the little ones into the
world three weeks ago. In that
time she has killed twenty sparrows,
members Of colony seemingly en-
tered into a pact to destroy her off,
spring. The birds have killed four
OF Nellie's chicks, half OF her family.
War was declared between Nellie
and the sparrows the morning the
little hen proudly came from her
nest with her eight tiny chicks. The
trouble started over a dish of corn
meal provided by a bridge tender for
the hen and chickens. The sparrows
wanted the meal and to get 1t made
concerted attack on the hen and
chicks. Nellie killed four sparrows
In the first battle, while the birds
took the lives Of two little chickens.
The scrimmage ended with the
sparrows in fight. but a guerrilla
warfare has. followed. The SPAR
rows have succeeded only twice in
their efforts to isolate Nellie's young
ones, but on those occasions quickly
beat the little chicks to death with
their wings and bills. The chickens
have now reached an age to be able
to fight back when attacked, and the
sparrows are giving up the fight

ONLY EIGHTY.Two WIDOWS.
But They Form one-Tenth Of the Pop
ulstion Of Monroe la.

out tHey FOFu She- entn OF the fOp-
uIation Of Monroe. la.
Ask the old baggage master at the
little village of Monroe. Ia. fer what
the town is remarkable and he will
tell you:
Nothing as / know of, unless it's
widders."
The answer is potent, as Monroe is
not only remarkable for widows. but
the most remarkable town for them in
the world.
There are SIG people in Monroe. says
the Chicago Tribune, and SO of them
are widows. IL the tax collector had
not had TO transfer three TO another
column for getting married again. and
TO take off three for death CT moving
away since last year, and If he had
not also TO admit reluctantly that
three more are widows by divorce
he could just as we'll give you 81 as
50.
In this connection Monroe is unique
in the fact that its women remain
widows. You will say that they never
had chance to remarry, but there
is another thing about the Monroe
widows.
They have outstripped the eligible
women of all other towns in the
United States in receiving proposals
Last year this town was pointed out
in nearby paper as one of the re-
markable discoveries of the census.
Not only were the widows listed as
widows. but those who paid taxes on
property were POINTED out.
The subject OF looks also was OBJ
ligingly dealt with. Exchanges copied
and the result was a shower OF letters
with proposals from all over the
State, and from other States, in num-
bers that taxed the local postmaster
These set Monroe in the most awful
futter that has ever been known in
its history and left no one of whom IL
could be said that she hadn't rernar-
ried because she hadn't had a chance.
Some of the young and pretty ones
got as many as thirty proposals while
the elcest widow, who Is ninety, got
her share as well as the rest.
The deep disgrace of that episode
will never quite fade from the minds
Of the widows Of Monroe That these
icNAcib UGH nluuen OF burned
and that the day on which the article
was written was considered an evil
day, the scars of which these gentle
souls will never get over, is part OF
the strangeness Of the people and their
ways, that makes Monroe the unique
town that IL Is.
One Of the prettiest OF the young
widows asked IL she did not get he,
share Of the letters. answered with
flashing eye and flaming cheeks:
Il did not get any and would put
them In the Ere II ] had"
Others say that she got any number
and that putting them in the fire was
exactly what she did. She has a pref.
~. dark, waving pompadour. with au-
burn lights In II, is slight and grace

her husband has been dead only a
year.
