her vocal selections, was the principal

The Wanderlnas Of a seaauII.

On October % last there was shot
at Ouchy, on Lake Leman a seagull,
aged about 16 months, which, the
Country Gentleman states, was found
to be wearing on its claw a silver
ring engraved with the words "Vogel-
station, Rossitten 20" Rossitten is
situated in the Lido of the Courland
lagoon, between Konigsberg and Me
mel, in the Baltic, 1,500 kilometers
from the Lake of Geneva. NJ. Forel
Of Lausanne communicated with DR..
J. Thienemann, director Of the orni-
biological station at Rossitten. Ac-
cording to the latest notes, the gull
No. 20 was Matched there. and was
marked with the ring when a few
weeks old, before IL could fly, on July
4, 1905. II seems probable that it had
thus made two winter migrations be-
fore it fell a victim to the human bar
barian.--W Westminster Gazette.

Wolf Ralded Sheepfold d.

George b. Israel, who lives on the
farm Of Sheriff Samuel Parks, in John
son township, Brown county, thought
his sheep were being killed by Oscar
Ault's dog. Israel went TO the Ault
home armed with gun, where he in
tended to kill the sheep-killing dog.
A fight took place between the two
men, and after they had paid their
fines before Justice Robinson Of John
son township they learned that he
had just trapped large timber wolf.
The neighbors Immediately made
friends and decided that the wolf had
been killing the sheep instead of the
dog, as supposed. The pelt of the
dead wolf was taken TO Nashville.
Numerous wolf tracks have been found
in Johnson township, and number
of farmers are looking for other
wolves which they believe have been
visiting sheepfolds.- cores

Coterie Concert was a Success.

Coterie Concert was a Success.
The concert given for the benefit Of
the Coterie at the opera house last Fri
day evening was one of the finest must
cal events ever given in Paw Paw. 1t
was given by local talent with the ex-
ception of two readings by Miss Zela
Harvey of Lansing. Miss Harvey at
one time, however, resided in Paw Paw.
Her readings were fine and received de
serving encores. 1t would be hard to
select any special numbers entitled to
more praise than the balance of the
program. Every number was especially
we'll selected and rendered in a manner
rejecting much credit upon the partic-
ipants. We cannot refrain from men
tioning in particular Dale Harrison,
Margaret Cole and Merle Clark. These
little folks have exceptional talent and
are always popular with the audience.
Also the performance of Aileen Buskirk
on the violin. Her execution of difficult
classical music is marvellous, and al
though she S now one of the finest mu-
sicians In tie state she is not yet con-
tent, but will continue her studies. The
large audience was we'll pleased with
the program and every number was
heartily encored.

Gift Of Speech Puts Him In . Class by
Himself.
The gift of speech Is the last proof
Of Divine favor, in virtue of which
mankind has the rest of the animal
kingdom faded, and stands in class
by himself.
Some beasts are stronger than men,
and some know more, but no beast
can be such a bore as a man, nor can
any beast slop over, In the true sense
Of the term These distinctions we
owe to the gift of speech.
The gift Of speech, moreover, lays us
under compulsion to read a great
many things which otherwise we
would not, in order that when we
have nothing to say, we may neverthe-
less say something. Thus We promote
the publishing business, create a de-
mand for wood pulp, assist in the de-
forestation of the earth's surface, stir
up a new school of kickers, increase
discomfort and contribute, at length,
TO progress and petulance.
Our ancestors used TO consider
speech means of concealing thought,
but we have nothing TO conceal

great interest and delight. She cried;
