 Referring to panies, the speaker said:
 There have been only three panics in this country in the last 50 years. The first and the latest were under republi- can administrations. The second was un- der d democratic administration, but bs- gan only two weeks after MT. Cleveland had taken offices so he was not in any way to blame.'
 "On the eve of every presidential cleo Iion, the republicans violently accuse the democrats Of being the cause of panics, he said at McLeansboro but the last money panic, which caused many banks to stop payment, came under a republic can President and a republican Senate and House of Representatives.
 There is no difference between repuo- licans and Mr Roosevelt's supporters on the vital issues of the campaign. They hold the same views on the tariff and the same views on trusts.

Birds That FliH.

Henry Oldys, formerly of the United
States Biological survey, in the course
Of recent lecture at the University Of
Chicago, said that birds were pos
sessed of an aesthetic sense similar to
that Of human beings Birds dance in
the air, do Highland fings,' and the
more sedate evolutions with the most
perfect rhythm" said Mr.. Oldys. They
sing a bird ragtime,' and at other
times snatches of song which greatly
resemble our grand opera. There Is q
blackbird that has song almost like
a Wagnerian opera; the robin is best
in so-called popular songs; while the
wood thrush sings a song OF four dis
tinct verses. Like the human being,
birds flirt and are filled with vanity
In this capacity they use their plum
age with great effect. In the Congo
there is male bird that struts before
It's mate, and peeps under its wing to
see II she Is looking at him." The
speaker concluded with the statement
that birds sometimes copy from man.
and that man could learn great deal
by copying from the bird.
