But can we not carry you, in imagination at least, to the des- erted little ones left in the nest to oStarve? Can we not picture to you the gruesome stiffness of the forest made so by the death of these beautiful SongsterS? Can we not help you to see orch ard and meadow made alike des- olate, and not only that, but see the fruit and grain ruined by i n ct which are the food of the bird? We forget per haps that birds are largely the preservation of these. God has so ordered it. We wonder who can awaken the sensitiveness of women. Sometimes we thing it time for men to rebel, and as a "set-off" against the woman s society whose members will not marry a man who drinks or drinks or smokes, organize them selves and say they will not ask 10 marry any woman who de- mands murder that she may have her hat pretty enough to go to the house of prayer.

special to the News.

Little Rock, March 10.-W. H. Ward was enro ol e d in the Supreme Court of Arkansas Monday. This statement to many will be of no interest. But Ward is not an ordinary individ- ual. He was for a number of years a business associate of Hon. ". c. BraLn, of Texas, and was present the day the Iconi, iclast was shot and killed on the street. Ward is now, and has been for a number of years, a practicing attorney at TeXar- kama, and stands high in his pro. fession. A big, ,iovial, good heart ed fellow, he gives little indica- tion of the fire which once char acterized his writ ings with Brann. He Is very retlcent re- garding the trouble in which Brann went to his death, appar- ently remembering the clo SC friendship between he and the victim. He was in charge of the lconiclaSt for some time after the death of Brann, working with the wife of his dead friend. It is said that he is still bitter against the slayer of his old time associate.
 Palmer Danahar, a young at torney of this city, was also en- rolled in the supreme court on Monday.

Various reasons are assigned for the
Punishment OF Ben All Haggin's picture

hints vaguely at the interference Of Com

Mr.. HagEin, according 70 this legend,
which may be true 30 far as the outside
world knows, followed the bent Of his Own
inclination when he undertook the study
Of srt. His grandfather known to busi-
ness and finance as James Haggin, did not
regard painting as the most promising
career for a young American and az.
pressed his opposition 30 plainly that there
has been little intercourse between the
two since Bsn Ali married and went TO
Munich with his bride 10 study art.
In fact the grandfAtherly interest is said
TO have diminished to such a point that
il took the portrait exhibited In the window
on Fifth avenue TO quicken again his interest
in art. So impressed was he by view Of
the singers picture that he caused his car
riage TO stop, examined the painting from
a distance Of few feet and then entered
the shop TO learn the price Of the portrait
and the name Of the painter.

"VOICES" FOR STUFFED BEASTS.
Novel business Lately started Here, but
Lone carried on IN Germany.

Perhaps the very newest industry in this
country is one lately started in New York
to supply whistles, or, as they are called in
the trade. voices for stuffed toy animals,
The new industry IL an outcome Of the
teddy bear craze,
The teddy bear. az is commonly known,
came originally from Germany, but soon
the demand became 30 great IN this coun-
try that they could not be imported in
numbers sufficient 10 supply it, and our
manufacturers took to making them.
But while they could readily enough pro-
duce the bears the manufacturers here still
had TO get the whistles, or voices, for them
in Germany, where the making OF them
was an art handed down through many
generations. and the bear makers here
couldn't always get these voices when they
wanted them. They might have to order
months ahead, or Il they relied on buying
the voices OF New York importers as they
wanted them they might not find in stock
here whistles OF the sorts they wanted and
20 be compelled 10 wait, and Of course this
made trouble in the bear business
In one factory here, for instance, when
they had great stock Of bears on hand all
ready 10 finish up they had 10 sit down
and wait weeks for the voices. And that
gave a man employed in this factory an
idea Why couldn't these voices be made
lin this country as well as in Germany,
and why couldn't he make business OF
producing them here to supply the domes-
tic bear trader
