Saved Wounded Piueon,

The archdeacon of London, in an
address on the growth of what he
called the instinct of rescue" told of
something he had done recently that
had given him great pleasure. Coming
out of the house of commons one day,
he noticed pigeon that had been run
over lying in the road. He called the
attention Of police constable to the
little heap Of crippled feathers, and
asked what were best to be done.
Best to kill It," said the constable.
But / couldn't do that" said the
archdeacon. Picking up the bird, he put
1t inside his coat and took it home. He
managed to set the broken bone of
the leg, and after tending the patient
tenderly for two months, had the
pleasure Of seeing it restored to its
former condition and fly joyously away
to rejoin its comrades on the roof
Of the house OF commons.

Eagle Kite Fooled kInafIshers.

1eS'S sN'hC SStS0
Seven boys entered their miniature
airships for the annual kite-flying con-
test, open to children of the public
and parochial schools, which took
place the other afternoon in Genessee
Valley park.
Interest was lent to the contest by
an odd incident, showing that the
birds of the air may be fooled by the
cleverness of man. Aling Brown had
kite made in imitation of an Amer
lean eagle, and when it spread its
wings to the breeze and rode away
into the air 1t looked like real king
of the air.
Indeed, SO perfect was the imita-
ton that as the beautiful kite scared
over one of the trees in the park in
rising, two large kingfishers saw the
strange fowl, and, uttering their shrill
cry of battle, left the tree and follow
ed the kite high into the air. They
wheeled and circled around their new
enemy, but such was their awe of
the majestic bird they did not venture
to push hostilities to the actual point
of contact. This eagle kite took the
first prize.-Rochester Herald.

ONE OF BoYHooD's WOES.
Simple Recital of Tragedy Of the
Baseball Field.

Over in the vacant lot back of JIM
Terrors were engaged in a baseball
duel to the death. 1t was the last half
of the eighth inning. The score stood
five to four in favor of the Mudlarks.
Jimmie Jones, the best pitcher of them
all, was in the box for the Mudlarks,
and the way he sped them through was
working havoc with the hopes of the
Terrors.
The Terrors were at bat. A man
passed to first, an error, and they had
runner at third. Jimmie Jones set
tied down to pitch, and struck the next
two batters out. A run would tie the
score. Grimly the Mudlarks settled to
the task of shutting out the Terrors.
Tense excitement reigned. Jimmie
Jones stood, serene and strong as an
adamant wall, and the best batter of
the Terrors approached the batter's
box.
Mudlark rooter's thin and strained
voice arose: "T'ree twisters and fan
out, Jimmie! De boys are all wild
you!"
Deliberately Jimmie Jones twirled
the ball in his fingers preparatory to
speeding through a deceptive shoot.
The base-runner at third danced for
ward and back again, ready to take
desperate chances to tie the score.
Seldom had so critical stage been
reached on the field. Still Jimmie
stood, twirling the ball. The hopes Of
the Mudlarks rested with him.
At length Jimmie Jones gave final
twirl to the ball, swung his arm about
like windmill, and prepared to send
the whizzing sphere across the plate.
But sound broke the stiffness.
Across the back fence that skirted the
field woman's voice came clear,
shrill, not to be denied:
Jimmie Jones, you come home and
rock your little brother to sleep this
minute!"
Slowly the tense muscles of Jimmie
Jones relaxed. The ball stopped in
midair. The great arm of the Mud
larks' star pitcher dropped as If par
alyzed. A look Of great pain came upon
his face and his fingers grew nerveless
and limp.
Never mind her, Jimmie" shouted
the Mudlark rooter. Finish out de
game"
But Jimmie Jones was undone. He
put his suspenders back on his shoul-
ders, passed the ball to the umpire,
and with his proud head bowed made
his way to where his coat lay in pile.
'Youse fellers don't know me mud
der" was all he said. cit anudder
pitcher"
He walked of the field. leaped the
back fence and was lost to view, while
the Terror batsman drove a three
Dagger and the cheers of the Terrors
apprised Jimmie Of the full force of
the tragedy.
