The Ostrich.

That ostriches hide their heads
in the sand and think that their
bodies are thereby hidden seems to
be pure myth, says the London
Times. Old birds ON the nest and
young birds when seeking to evade
notice squat close to the ground and
stretch their necks out fiat on the
sand. In the case of the young,
which harmonizes as perfectly with
their sandy surroundings as young
ringed ployer do with the stones on
a beach, the ruse is said to render
them almost Invisible, and on the
wide expanses OF the desert il is
evident that the upright neck Of
sitting bird would render it unnec-
essarily conspicuous to malauding
enemy. But there is no more
ground for accusing the ostrich of
"self illusion" than there is for
bringing the same charge against
the partridge chick, which by mere
ly sitting still among the grass prac-
tically disappears from sight.

Congressman Charles Newell Fowler
Of New Jersey, who recently began a
campaign for the seat of Senator John
zean. Is recognized as one of the
warmest members Of the insurgent
division and the dearest foe Of Uncle
Joe Cannon. In the speech with which
he opened his campaign, Mr.. Fowler
declared that every insurgent in con-
gress is Roosevelt Republican and
that they "were tired of and protested
against the bondage and Matchmaking
system that prevails under Cannon
ism, and the influence of the people
is behind US, and we will yet triumph
over these political pirates and enemies
Of the people"
In speaking of his contest In New
Jersey for United States senator he
referred to the state as a rotten bor-
ough and cesspool OF corruption"
and he came out for the popular cleo
tiOa of senators.
III 10 protest against corrupt agree
ments by which one citizen gains an
advantage over another citizen" Mr..
Fowler went on. ''gr against unjust
laws whereby one citizen gains an ad-
vantage over another citizen, is to be
an insurgent. then 1 glory in the fact
that ! am an insurgent. If to stand
utterly opposed to all Aldrichism and

His wife was extrayagant, a scold

have the backing of both President
Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt for the Re
publican nomination in the Empire
State, Mr.. Loeb. it is said, does not
take kindly to the proposition. His
friends say that his lukewarmness is
due to several reasons, one of which is
that he IS not rich man, and the sal
ary of the chief executive is hardly
sufficient to maintain the dignity of
the position. 1t is well known that
Governor Hughes will leave the execu-
tive chair poorer man than when he
took Office. Another reason is that

ON Al CATTLE SHIP.
Working Ones Passage to Europe 10
u Mighty Hard Job


A writer in the Philadelphia Rec
ord, telling Of working ones pas
sage to Europe on cattle ship,
says:
The food is the worst part of the
trip. 1t is nauseating, and but few
can stand it. The bulk of it is serV-
ed in the dishpan, which is carried
to the galley, and the mainstay is
"scouse,o sort of watery beef stew.
This is varied with corn beef and
cabbage, beans, potatoes and a few
other staple articles, all Of poor
quality. Tea and coffee are drawn
from huge caldrons directly to the
kettles, with milk and sugar added
in the galley.
The first duties of the men were
to tie the cattle up. 1t is no small
matter to secure and control thor
oughly frightened 1000 pound
steer, but as we moved down the
Delaware all became more quiet,
and by o'clock all we're securely
fastened, and we went to our first
meal.
Sunday the real work began,
which was to be the routine until
the end of the voyage. Each morn
ing we were awakened at 4 o'clock.
From 4 to we engaged in the
wet and back breaking work of wa
tering the cattle. Each steer drank
from three to seven bucketfuls, and
as we had only eight pals the prob
lem became how to keep them filled
and yet not overflow without shut
ting off the hose. 1t was made
harder by the fact that the steers
fought for the water. -
From o'clock to we hauled up
from the lower decks by means Of
block and tackle thirty-two bundles
of hay and twenty bags of corn,
each weighing 100 pounds. Under
the matches it was sitting work ;
above the hands grew blistered from
the ropes. Then third Of the hay
was fed out. Breakfast followed.
After short rest the troughs were
cleared, corn fed and the aisles
swept. Inspection began at 1890,
and the captain, purser and doctor
passed en- tour of the vessel, look
: ing into every nook and Granny.
Work finished at noon, after which
there was a respite until 3, when
more hay was given, and again at Z
We were usually ready for bed at g.
{ although a few times we remained
up until 10. No.
The cattlemen had the entire run
of the great broad open steerage
deck aft and the portion Of the bow
forward assigned to the crew. Here
! we met many of the cabin passen-
gers and had jolly good times and
talks with them. On the quiet sew
eral Of the higher officers had pleas
ant words for US. To our amuse-
ment the menials took delight in
making things as unpleasant as pos
sible when opportunity offered.
