The Birds.

From the Rochester Herald.
The bill advocated by the Audubon
socities Of the state of New York, for
bidding the sale within this state Of
the plumage of any wild bird which is
protected within New York, has pass
ed the legislature and is awaiting the
governors signature. We trust it will
receive his approval. For many years
the Audubon societies have labored
increasingly to educate the people Of
this state to the economic as well as
the sentimental, value of wild bird life.
Their progress has been very slow.
The rural communities of the state,
even the Embarrassing sections of west
ern New York, have been afflicted
with almost incredible ignorance of
the usefulness of birds. Farmers
boys often rob birds nests of their
eggs, and amuse themselves by aim
ing their newly acquired firearms at
birds Of every kind. 1t is seldom that
word of censure is heard from the
male parent, whole property the
young mischief-maker is fastening to
destroy.

Declaring that the residents of
because the city is taking no action in
regard to improving that street, when
they have gone to considerable ex-
pense by placing cement sidewalks,
curbs and cutters along that thorough
fare, Councilman Willim H. Bartel
presented petition for the improve
ment of South A street, at the meeting
OF the city council last evening with
the request that it be given special
consideration.
Bartel stated that he saw no reason
why the improvement of that street
should be delayed. He declared that
the property owners paid for the &C.
ment sidewalk, curb and cutters with
the understanding that the street was
to be macadamized by the city, but
as yet no step had been taken by the
present administration in this direc-
ton. Councilman Bartel said that the
city now had $4,000 on hand with
about $4,000 in bills payable in taxes
to come in by July 1, and implied that
the financial condition of the city
treasury did not appear to be so
badly bent as was the general sup
position.
AS an illustration Barte1 asserted
that at this date last year. the city
had but sS.s49.91 in the treasury. De-
spite this small amount. he alleged,
the other administration went ahead
with the improvements.
Councilman Matt Won Pein then
spoke along the same lines. He de-
clared that the do nothing" policy
OF the present administration was be-
ing generally criticized and that while
1t was not his intention to join in on
| the criticism, as he belived that this
administration knew its own business,
| at the same time he said it was the
business of the councilmen to take
this matter uD. Mr.. Won Pein stated
that it had always been the policy for
| the city to macadamize street on
! which sidewalks, curb and cutters had
| been placed by the residents. He
contended that it was a question as to
whether 1t was more economical to
put this matter of improvement off un-
til next year when the work would be
doubled. THE streets are the max

A New Case Of EnaIish humor.

A New Case Of English Humor.
Two southerners were entertaining
an Englishman when one of them told
the following story:
There was a poor white in our coun-
ty named Yarrow, whom every one
thought dishonest. but who had never
been caught stealing. At last he got
too bold, and through the testimony of
a Mr.. Brown he was sent to Jail. Soon
after Yarrow served his sentence Mr..
Brown was obliged to go to Baltimore
and have his eyes operated upon. A
much exaggerated account of the op-
Grafton reached the county and was
told to Yarrow.

Mixed His Poetry,


Mixed metaphors, observation-disclosures
and inattention have caused many
laughable incidents. Teachers in the
elementary grades Of the public
schools especially hear many Of these
amusing breaks
One day bright youth in one of the
higher grades of a kensington school
during an elocution period furnished
an addition to the long list. He mixed
up two poets with a result that pro-
voked much laughter in the school.
He quoted, or. rather, misquoted, as
follows:
Oh, woman. in our hours of ease,
Uncertain coy and hard to please:
But, seeing too Oft. become familiar with
her face
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.
