A Birds Bsrbed Wire Fences.

There may be seen along the road
sides in Central America a brown wren
about the size Of a canary which builds
a nest out of all proportion to its ap-
parent needs. 1t selects a small tree
with horizontal branches growing close
together. Across two Of the branches
1t lays sticks fastened together with
tough fiber until a platform about six
feet long by two feet wide has been
constructed. On the end of this plat
form nearest the tree trunk it then
builds a huge dome shaped nest a
foot or so high with thick sides Of in
terwoven thorns. A covered passage
way is then made from the nest to the
end Of the platform in as crooked a
manner as possible. Across the outer
end as well as at short intervals along
the inside Of this tunnel are placed
cunning little fences Of thorns with
just space enough for the owners to
pass through. On going out this open
ing Is closed by the owner by placing
thorns across the gateway. and thus
the safety Of the eggs or young is as

under the rights given by the consti-
tuition, seeded not to break up the
Union but with the hope of bringing
about an amicable understanding
Representatives from the Confederate
government were not recognized. All
attempts to bring about an under
standing were futile.
South Carolina tried to recover pro-
perty which had been seized by the
North, and failed. Fort Sumter was
in the hands of the North and the
Confederate government gave notice,
to reinforce Fort Sumter would be
looked upon as hostile. An attempt
was made and by this act the South
declared that the North had opened
war.
The rights of liberty loving people
who wanted justice melted out to all
sections alike was now at stake. How
much they valued this justice and lib
erty was proved by the long struggle
which followed, in which our heroes
fought so valiantly, that their names
will live forever.

NOTES.

The rector went down to Nair yes
terday to solemnize the marriage OF
Mr.. Auguste B. Bulot and Miss Freda

Last Sunday night was one of the
most disagreeable of our experience
on account of the weather, but we
were glad to see as many out as brav.
ing the elements came to service.
Next Tuesday night being the third
Tuesday in the month, the Woman's
Guild will hold its quarterly meeting
at the rectory. 1t is hoped that there
will be quite large attendance. The
hour is 1880 p. m.
In the death of Mr.. c. w. Wiegand
our town has lost one of its oldest and
most substantial citizens-a resident
here for over fifty-five years. The fu-
neral will be held from the house and
church this evening at o'clock. Our
sympathy goes out to his family in
their loss and We pray that he may
have rest and peace and that light per-
petual may shine upon him.

A Detective Story.

like detective stories; read them.
] write them, but / do not believe
them. The bones and structure of q
good detective story are so old and
well known that 1t may seem banal to
state them even In outline. A police
man, stupid, but sweet tempered, and
always weakly erring on the side Of
mercy, walks along the street, and In
the course of his ordinary business
finds man In Bulgarian uniform kill
ed with an Australian boomerang in
a Brompton milk shop. Having set
free all the most suspicious persons in
the story. he then appeals to the bull
dog professional detective, who ap-
peals to the hawklike amateur detec-
tive. The latter finds near the corpse
a boot lace, button boot, a French
newspaper and return ticket from
the Hebrides, and SO relentlessly, link
by link, brings the crime home to the
archbishop Of Canterbury.-T. K. Ches-

Diversions Of Earlier GsoraIa.

Micajah Williamson kept licensed
tavern In the town of Washington. In
front OF this tavern was large picture
Of George Washington hanging as
swinging sign. John Clarke governor
1S19-23 used to come to town and,
like most men Of his day, get drunk.
They all did not "cut up" however, as
he did on such occasions. He went
into stores and smashed things gener-
ally, as tradition says, but he always
came back and paid for them like a
gentleman. Once he came into town
intoxicated and galloped down Court
street and fred through the picture of
General Washington before the tavern
door. This was brought up against
him later when he was a candidate for
governor, but his friends denied it
