BIRDS THAT CONSTRUCT PRISONS

Among the hOrnbills of southern Asia. the Malayan islands and central and southern Africa. most of the spe- cies have a curious habit of matching their young in the walled-up hollow of the tree chosen for the nest. The birds have immense bills and horny crests.
 The mother bird is walled up by her mate and remains imprisoned until the eggs are matched. and in some species until the young birds are able to fly. Meantime the mother has become tenn porarily incapable of flight, as she has mOulted. or at least shed all her wing feathers during her captivity But the male is indefatigable in providing for his family, and is said to work so hard that he is reduced almost to a skele- ton at the end of the breeding sea- son.
 According to the theory of many na- tives, the female is imprisoned to pre- vent her neglectinE her duty of brood ing, and if she has been unfaithful or negligent, her mate closes the little window of her cell and ahandons her to a painful death by suffocation.
 The true story, perhaps. is this: The female walls herself in so that she cannot fall from the nest after los ing her feathers, and also to protect herself from enemies. This version IS less poeticaI than the other, but it is probably nearer the truth. It is sup ported by the statement that the female liberates herself as soon as the young birds are well grown. so that her pris- on is less formidable than it appears. Scientific American.

A BURIAL SOCIETY.
Mrs. Burns Suggests Ore ir Aid O Poor Whom Undertakers Fleece.

A society to relieve the poor of their ever haunting fear of the potter's field was suggested at the society for politi- cal study at it's last meeting by Mrs. Clarence Burns. says the New York Tribune Farmer.
 When We reoliZe that one out Of every ten of these people is buried as a pauper," said Mrs Burns, i've can partly understand the sacrifices they make in order to keep up the prem miumS on the insurance that will save them from this fate. But it is heart breaking to see the bread actually ta- ken out of the children's mouths fCr this purpose, and to know that. no mat ter what the amount of the insurance the undertaken will get it all He al ways asks what the insurance is be- fore he fixes his price. Then if it iz
 S9O he asks :1OO. and if it is $1OO. he asks :110. I have had women come to me the day after the funeral and ask for bread, and when I asked what they had done with their insurance money.
 they said 1t had all gone to the under taker. l think a society that would in
 sure 9 decent burial for a reasonable payment and soe that it's patrons are not feeced by undertakers, might do
 an immense amount of good"
 Mrs. Burns had been addressing the society on the cause of poverty, and when the subject came to the commit tee of the whole nearly every member had some different remedy for the ills of the time. Mre COrdelia SchnitZer thought that the tenement was the root of all evil, and wondered why J. c. l Phelps Stokes and the "other young
 milliOnaires who were doing so much 1 talking" didn't put up some model ten ements.
 They talk and give advice" she re- marked, but meantime their millions are rolling up."
 i Mrs. Sally NJ. Cory seemed to think that the tenements were fairly satis- | factory dwellings,. and that the land 1 lords and not the tenants were the ones who stood in need of the public sympathy.
 "I have some tenements." she said and don't know of anything on earth or in heaven that the inspectors don t
 make the landlords do for their ten
 ants. They come around three times
 a week, and if I were to put one paper
 on over another they would discover It l in ten minutes"
 ''I think Mrs. Cory must be a mark | ed woman" said Mrs. Burns, flor the | last tenement house commissioner | Thomas C. T. Grain, told me he hadn't inspectors enough to have each house
 visited once in two years" | "I dare say ] am marked" said Mrs. i Cory. My agent tells me that all | women landlords are marked"

came as a shock to the devout believe CTS in American friendship. a thing which all classes here hold in wise and tender regard. In other directions too, the sudden cooling of kindness on the occasion of respect. has not gone unmarked. The Japanese are sensitive in such matters. and they quite realize that in order to overcome a powerful foe and secure an illustriOus alliance, they have been obliged to risk some ancient and pleasant friendships. This experience of one of the penalties of greatness has doubtless deepened the prevailing mood. Henceforth the Jap anese will never ask what foreign na- tiOns think of him. He is taking the responsibility for his own standards There is no longer any gallery. All that matters in future is his estimate of himself.-Mrs. Mary Crawford Fra ser in Tho Worlds Work.

HE HIGH SCHOOLS
 MUSICAL TALENT
A Very Pleasant Entertainment on
 Friday Night.

The entertainment given Friday eve ming by the students of the High School at the hign school building. was heartily appreciated by large number of friends of the participants The program was eXcellenty arrang ed and each number received much applause. The high school orchestra, composed of Miss Jones, Messrs. Dowd (director). Jones. Thompson and Dowd is a musical combination of which the school may be justly proud. Miss Jones, the pianist, did especially good work.
 A vocal solo rendered by Miss Hazel Pugh was especially well received and showed the singer to be the possessor of a splendid voice.
 The following numbers were humOr- ous and provoked much laughter: The male quartette in Aunt Margery." the song and dance of the Misses BObo- linskinski," and the sketch "A Race for Wife, by Messrs. Caulkins and Hill.
 The Girls Quartet of the freshman class, accompanied by Miss Rema Dor ris proved that even freshmen" ap- preciate and understand the possibil- ities of music.
 The musical farce. "The Fortune Teller" by the mixexd quartet, com posed of the Misses Edna Ward Cso prano) Hazel DeMund (altO), and Messrs. Herman (bass), and J. w. Todd (tenor), accompanied by Miss Alice Norton, was decidedly the hit of the evening. The leading role Miss Angelina TompkinsOn, the tall and handsome brunette), was carried by Miss Ward in very commendable manner.
 The entertainment as a whole re- fleets much credit upon MT. J. w. Todd, under whose direction it was given.
