Thaokerax,s First Poem.

Thackeray's momentous first appear
ance in print was : satirical poem.
published In the Western Luminary
during one of the happy holiday times
which he spent in Devonshire when
still scholar at the Charterhouse.
A certain Mr.. Labor Shell was to have
delivered a speech upon Penendon
heath. but the crowd refused to hear
him. He had taken the precaution,
however. to send copies of his intend
ed grafton to all the leading journals
before leaving town, and these, of
course, printed it. This ludicrous in
cident inspired Thackeray to write
little jeu d'esprit entitled Irish Melo-
dy," telling how Mister Shelf when
the men of Kent began a grievous
shouting" found comfort in rejecting:

1alkinq Canariee,

Talking canaries are a great rarity.
but several authenticated instances are
on record. At Norwood. England, in
1858 lady had a canary bird which
began by repeating word which its
mistress had often used to it-"Kissie.
kissie'-and by following the word up
by an imitation of the sound of a kiss
After time the bird repeated other
words until it had large vocabulary
Of phrases. one Of which consisted Of
i've words. Again. in 1868, a talking
canary was exhibited In Bath. with a
vocabulary such as is generally taught
to parrots, and another talking canary
was exhibited for few weeks in this
country, but it unfortunately caught
cold and died. In Germany and the
Tyrol canaries are taught to initiate
the notes Of other birds and whistle
simple tunes, and the words which it
initiates may be regarded as mere
development or variant Of its musical
notes.

acting in concert to bear upon quesL
tions relating to labor-hundreds Of
thousands were enrolled. The coun-
try saw with approval and sympa-
thy the movement grow. Capital
itself in it's best estate would not and
did not make objection. And labor,
thus organized, and acting within the
bounds of its good purposes, accom-.
plished results valuable to itself and
the country.
But excesses have crept in. Some
bad men have made their way to
leadership. Some nid!eous things
have been done by union men pro-
claiming union ends. The McNama-
ras are not the first of that kind to.
be exposed. And probably there are
others as bad as yet concealed, and
meditating things in defiance of both
law and humanity.
Union labo could never have gath
cred it's present numerical strength"
saws an Eastern writer, "nevr have
secured the influence it now exer.
cises, except as an organization of
law-abiding citizens employing law
full means. Had McNamaraism been
even suggested at the start the wage
earners OF the country would have
spurned all solicitations to ally them
selves with thing so abhorrent.
And now that McNamaraism stands
disclosed, and union labor is called
to act, need it do more than put
foot on it and crush it to continue in
the enjoyment of what it has accom-
plisIhed by means withort f'aw and
above fair criticism?'

A Risky Place For Doctors.

.edical skill is at rather low ebt
throughout Russia and not without
cause. An American physician, tempt.
ed by the enormous fees so frequently
paid by the nobility. went to st. Peters,
burg and within a year had lucrative
practice. Then he was called in to at
tend baron who was suffering from
lung trouble. The doctor gave his pa.
tient the best of care and skill. but the
baron died. and the widow promptly
sued the doctor for damages for I'm.
skilled treatment. The unlucky Ameri-
can was sentenced to pay fine Of
1000 roubles and undergo an imprison-
ment Of thirty days. Under the cir
cumstances it is not surprising that
the physician left Russia as soon as
he got out Of Jail. and nothing could
tempt him to return.
