His Danger.

In these days Of almost pre-eminent
German music and musicians 1t is
rather amusing to read the opinions OF
former generations concerning Teu
tonic singers.
Frederick the Great was so impo
litely unpatriotic as to declare that he
would rather hear the neighing OF a
horse than the singing Of German
prima donna. Perhaps IN his day there
was some excuse for such remark.
but the times have changed.
There is a diverting anecdote Of an
Italian who was convinced that no
German could sing. A friend induced
him TO go to the opera where Hen
riette Sontag sang. After hearing her
first aria the Italian got up to go. The
friend urged him to stay. assuring him
that he would be convinced soon.
II know It," replied the Italian. land

The Voracious Cormorant.

How a cormorant dives for sea trout
and gets them Is told by writer:
II had the cormorant under observa-
ton only for the space of four or five
minutes. and during that short period
it had captured four sea trout, all OF
considerable size. After being under
water for a few seconds the bird
would reappear with sea trout wrig-
Cling in its bill But in spite of the
victims desperate efforts to escape 1t
was deity swallowed, and after few
gulps the cormorant would resume its
fishing operations. One Of the sea
trout gave it considerable trouble, how
ever, for the fish struggled violently
for some moments, but was deftly
placed 50 that its head pointed down
its captor's throat. and thus its own
struggles assisted the bird to swallow
it. After time the cormorant raised
itself in the water, tapping it's wings
vigorously, as though to help it pack
away its heavy repast, and then rose
heavily and winged its way up
stream"

1t Is rather a clever notion In re.
cent story to make two Americans
communicate with each other by
means of slang in Central American
republic at time when all kilograms
are carefully inspected. If they used
Spanish, that. of course, would be i'm
mediately understood. If they used
English the officials would find some
one to translate it. AS they had no
cipher code prepared in advance, they
could not resort to it. Consequently
the first American telegraphs to the
other American in the great and po-
tent code of slang" Here is tele-
gram which slipped through the fin
gers of the curious Central American
officials:
