min1stered the pain was so great-in
short, the doctor could not take his
hand off his work for three hours. All
this while a driving sleet storm, the
moisture freezing as it fell and giving
everything a coat Of ice, was beating
upon his partner out in the yard.
When the doctor finally emerged in
the small hours it was to find the
horse where he had left him, except
that the rig was headed round for
home. A daylight examination reveal
ed the truth through the marks Of the
hoofs and wheels of the buggy that dur
ing his long wait of three hours in q
pelting and freezing storm, the horse
had q score Of times made up his mind
to go home and had gone down the
road sometimes a quarter, sometimes
half Of the way, and then had thought
this hard on the doctor and had turned
back to wait as In duty bound.
If this Is not a demonstration not
only of reasoning power but also of
moral consciousness what is it2 1t is
needless to say that the doctor respects
his subhuman partner and would no
more think Of parting with him till
death doth them part than he would
with any member of his family. His
back is bowed with the weight Of TWEEN
ty-seven years; he is no longer the
handsome trotter he once was, but he
Is the doctors ''fdus Achates," Just
the same, and he will not be supplant-
ed, in spite of the publics smiles

A FIGHT WITH A CRANE.
NCNCNOcONONOcNO


The huge whooping crane which fire.
quents the swamps Of Texas and Flor
ida during the winter has a frightful
whoop and the habit Of flying about
after nightfall, swinging overhead with
terrifying cutlery. Met after sunset, in
a lonely meadow, says a writer In the
Strand Magazine, who describes his at
tempt to capture one, this huge bird Is
indeed terrifying unless the traveller is
familiar with the species, and remem-
bers that unless wounded or cornered
the bird will fee rather than stop and
fight.
when L started out to capture one
Of those whooping cranes" says the
writer, "luck favored NE, and l sight
ed a pair Of them. l aimed at and
wounded one. Running up to where
it lay on the ground, thought either
to capture the bird alive or bag it.
Then ensued one Of the f1ercest battles
l have ever witnessed or taken part
In, and have stalked big game.
1.-THE wounded bird rose with q
scream the minute 1 approached and
stood on the defensive. 1 swung my
lasso and missed This attack infuri-
ated the bird still more, and with
enormous and powerful bill extended
it charged full at me.
"Once it struck me on the neck,
second time 1t caught me on the right
arm, and made it limp and useless for
three days. The third nip was on my
hand.
LAS it fought it uttered It's terrible
war cry, and when l thought 1 had sue
ceeded in firing it out and was count
ing on creeping up and giving it a fin
ishing touch with a short blade which
1 carried, l heard an answering call,
and saw circling over us another Of
these huge birds.
"That was one too many for me- 1
took to my heels and ran for shelter,
vowing never to interfere with the
creatures again"

Hen Laws ouinine Eggs.


Senator Butt of the Arkansas Senate
had just finished a little tale about
feeding morphine to a pointer pup ana
watching him dream when Representa-
tive De ROssit said:
Senator, your dog reminds me OF
my hen. Needing quinine one day, as
we often do in the bottom, mixed up
an ounce of the drug with molasses and
rolled it out into pills. Leaving the
stuff to dry on the front porch, went
into the house.
Returning, 1 saw the last of my pills
swallowed by my hen.
"Of course l thought her silly head
would burst wide open. She simply
commenced to cackIe and has been lay
ing two eggs a day ever since. And do.
you know, Senator, those eggs are thG,
best chill tonic on the market. One Of
them taken internally will knock the.
spots from any case of malaria in this
State and shaking ague can't stand be-
fore 'em an hour after they are eaten.

BIRD CAGE OF 100 ROOMS.

Young italian with Few Tools Makes
Marvel of Carving and Joining.
What would you think Of a bird
cage that stands four feet high, has
more than a hundred rooms, forty bal
comics, towers, turrets, minarettes,
mating rooms, reception room and
a clock? asks the Kansas City Star.
Such a cage has been built by Peter
Capello, an Italian, living at POP
North Liberty street, Independence.
He has been working on it for more
than two months and the cage is not
yet finished. 1t is made entirely Of
wood and brass and is modelled after
a cathedral in the builders native
land. Every panel, every floor, every
balcony is finished to the smallest de-
tail The dOvetailing and joining are
almost perfect. On the interior are
double swings, paneled feed dishes,
carved water troughs, and a net work
OF doors leading from room to room.
The center of the cage has broad
steps leading to a double door with a
tiny lock. Just inside the main doors
are the mating rooms, little covered
places with deep shadows. Above the
door is the clock and above that is a
balcony with brass ratings and swing
ing doors The balconies jut out all
around the building from floor to
tower. The cage is painted in red and
drab with green doors. Two smaller
towers are just back of the main tow
ers and these are used as the birds
gymnasium.
The cage is the more wonderful
when it is known that the builder has
never had any instruction in joining
or carving, and that his tools consisted
of an old knife, a scroll saw and an
awl. He had to work in a little back
room with only one small electric
light. He has done other wood cary
ing. A small dressing case with a
mirror, is such a mass of complicated
carving that it looks almost like lace
Capello is young. He has been in Amer
let about nineteen months and speaks
little English.

Sneaker Connon,s Letter.

Speaker Cannon received a letter
from a woman living in Danville, ILL.,,
his home town. The letter, which was
addressed to 'the Congress, the Presi-
dent, the Speaker, and all others in
Washington who have power" read:
1.-The crying need in this country is
for a law that will compel people to
pay their board bills. Congress must
pass this law Immediately. The great
est evil Of modern times is the man or
woman who does not pay board bill, I
know.
"Also Congress should pass in the
same law a provision making it legal
for a man to board where he wants to,
and choose his own boarding place, and
not be Influenced by his wife, after he
has picked it out, to compel him to pay
every week. Please see to this at
once."-St. Louis Post Dispatch.

sTENoPEILE SOUND MACHINE.

Recent German Invention with
Which Speeches Can BE Written.
Consul ]. l. Britain writes from
Alsace-Lorraine, the stenophiIe bivort,
recently invented by Charles Bivort,
chevalier of the Legion of Honor and
director Of the Bulletin Of the Ealles,
has given some very practical and il
tersting results.
The machine reproduces sounds auto
matically, by syllables, in topographic
way as the typewriter; has 4 Keyboard,
characters. It IS operated in the same
way as the typewriter; has keyboard,
which consists Of twenty keys. Each
key, upon being pressed, prints the cor
responding letter on a band of paper,
which unrolls itself on a sort Of pull
ley. The characters are the same as
those Of the usual alphabet. It is easy
to read at first sight what the machine
has written. It is simple, strong and
light and eXacts in its management
neither effort nor rigid attention. A
child or blind man can easily learn to
use it, 1t writes very swiftly, writing
as high as 200 words a minute, without
fatiguing the orator by noise. BY
means of an interchangeable keyboard
it can be used for all languages.
The machine was recently exhibited
in che office of the Journal of Alsace-
Lorraine in Strassburg, where 1t gave
excellent results, reproducing both
French and German with perfect facili-
ty. 1t is already III use in many
schools

GUESTS MAKE THE HOTEL.
"Comfort'' of OId-Time Inns Would
Not Be Tolerated To-day.

"Comfort'' of OId-Time Inns Would
Not BE Tolerated To-day.
Among the silly and absurd articles
appearing from time to time concern
ing hotel and tavern keeping one tells
us again and again how the modern
hotel is shown to disadvantage when
compared with the inns Of colonial
days. In these articles the writer di-
lates and expiates on the hospitality
of the old-time tavern and the cold, in
different and almost cruel treatment
received from the hands of the modern
hotel man. Of course, every one
knows, If he will drop sentiment for
moment and give the subject q little
sober reflection, that the modern trav-
eler, tourist or hotel guest would abso-
lutely refuse the accommodations af-
forded by the inn of one hundred years
ago. The only advantage Of a hotel
Of those times lay in the fact that the
lack of material comforts drew from
the traveller @ warmer fellow feeling
and greater sociability-a condition In
which one man was more his brothers
keeper than prevails to-day. Again,
the travel by coach and the small num-
Der thrown together, en- route or at the
hotel, made closer mountaineering
not only possible but far more desira-
bic than in our day Of big hotels and
big crowds.
The modern hotel is product of the
times. The wants, desires, whims, fads
and, on top of all these the impera-
tive demands Of those who travel have
made the hotel Of to-day what it is
from the standpoint of food, accommo-
dations, method of service and man
agement, and from every point of view.
The hotel keeper Of to-day responds to
the bidding Of the guests. One might
almost say Of the man and woman who
travel: Here is your hotel; you have
planned it, furnished it; you have out
lined its methods of management, and
it is what you believe should be COM
pretended In the modern hotel"
The colonial tavern, which would not
be tolerated for a moment in our days.
was adapted to its times; to speak Of
it as being superior to the modern hos
telry is to claim that the old stage
coach, which left you more weary and
worn at the end Of one hundred miles
than the palace coach does to-day at
the end of one thousand miles, was a
superior vehicle Of travel to those
used on the modern railroad

Young man, sarcastically. "He wouldn't
be consuming anything but clean, good
tobacco in a clean paper, made out Of
harmless rice fiber, and you'd try to

man with the pipe. "See this mouth
