catching them he placed them in a
cage and now has them in his store.
The birds have grown rapidly and are
now changing their feathers to the well
known bright yellow of the orioles.
They will eat most anything in the
food line and are perfectly tame APP

ANIMALS CAN AND DO REASON
Abundant Proof Is Seen In Incident
In Which Cow and Steer Are
Involved.

As proof that animals can and do
reason the following incident is re-
lated by close observer: A COW and
a steer-the latter two years old
were the only occupants Of the barn.
yard where the occurrence took
place. A batting of hay was put out
to them, the COW taking possession.
The steer wished to share it, but the
COW was selfish and bent on taking
the whole Of it. As often as the
steer would maneuver around to get
a bite she would drive him off with
her sharp horns. The steer was so
persistent, however, that the old COW
got angry and made vicious charge
at the steer, Furnishing him severely,
although he was her own offspring.
The steer felt badly hurt, not only
in body, but evidently in mind as
we'll. He started down the lane
toward the pasture, where the rest
of the cattle were grazing, believing
vengeance at every step in a Ian
g,,age which was unmistakable, and
which the mother well understood,
as she ceased eating and listened in
tently. When the noise died away
she resumed her ration, but with
evident apprehension. Presently
the steer was seen returning, bring
ing with him companion larger
and stronger than himself. AS they
approached, the rumbling Of rage
and revenge could be again heard,
which grew louder as they came
nearer. The COW took in the situa-
ton at once, and was now terror
stricken. AS her assailants rushed
into the yard she lodged them and
rushed out at life-and-death speed,
and away toward the rest of the
stock in the field, with her pursuers
close in her track.

ITALIAN DUKE A WORKER.

"The harder the duke of Abruzzi
works the better he likes it," says q
member Of his last expedition. He
is indefatigable, and his scientific
enthusiasm rouses even the most
phlegmatn.
"Of course, exploration as carried
on by the duke is most expensive
enterprise. He thinks nothing Of
engaging from 300 to 500 natives to
work for him. He is very kind to
his people and while sometimes risk
ing his life and health recklessly
enough, he insists that his co-work-
ars observe the most minute precau-
tons. When marching at great
heights the duke excused a number
IF his people, sending them back to
places of safety, but himself climbed
to the enormous altitude Of $500
meters, or 10000 feet.

OLD FISH TRAP DESTROYED
Missouri Continuance That Dates
Away Back From Time Of
the Indians.

Emmett c. Higgins and Otto
Witt, game wardens, destroyed with
dynamite the fish trap on the Chari-
ton river. It had been in use for
many years and was netting its own
err from $4,000 to $500 a year.
Ben Clark. the owner of the place,
protested that he had purchased the
trap along with the farm and that
the fishing rights had been handed
down for years to the owners of the
farm.
He declared that he could not be
deprived Of them by law. There
were many farmers waiting around
the trap for a supply of fish, for
which they paid four cents a pound.
The fish usually caught in the trap
were buffalo, cat, carp and croppy,
weighing from one to fifty pounds.
Catfish weighing 100 pounds have
frequently been caught in the old
trap.
The trap was curious invention.
consisting of heavy timbers placed
midway Of the stone dam. Fish
coming down stream would float
into it. The catch for day would
frequently fill an ordinary farm
wagon. It is said that the dam and
trap were originally built by the In
dams. The owners have cleared
more money from the sale Of fish
than from the produce of the farms.
Frequent complaints have been made
made Of this method Of catching
fish, but until a few days ago no
notion was taken.-Kansas City

THE FRESH AIR SCHOOLS
American Cities Are Adopting Plan
for tuberculosis Children Which
Has Worked Well In Germany.

Fresh air schools, started and still
conducted to care for tubcrculous
children, promise to have an impor-
tant influence upon the entire pub
lie school system. They are still
new in America, having been in use
in Providence two years, in Boston
something more than a year and for
shorter periods in Chicago, Pitts
burg, Rochester and Hartford. They
have been fully tried out in Ger
many, where they have been varied
into open air summer schools and
forest schools. In no place where
they have been tried have they been
abandoned. In most places they are
being extended. Thus far the
schools have included only the ply
sically weak and the mentally back
ward. With plenty of fresh air and
sanitary surroundings, these weak
and defective children have been
able to accomplish more than nor
NAL children in the ordinary schools.
In some cases progress has been ex-
ceptionally rapid. While the minds
develop as they never developed be-
fore, the bodies grow strong and
children are given a chance in life
