The Children sPartofthe PAPER
1.-THE FARM TER CHIPMUNK."
Little Follow Was Jealous Guardian of
His Patch Of Corn.

His Patch Of Corn.
In New York's ZOO some time ago
there was n chipmunk which had earn
ed for himself the name Of the farmer
chipmnnk." Born in the wilds OF Cali
fornia. he was taken to New York and
locked up in Il great wire cage, where
he amused himself with catching
crumbs and peanuts thrown to him by
curious little boys and girls. One day
the keeper noticed that there We're sew
eral little blades Of corn growing in
II corne Of the animals yard. 1t
looked as though the little creature
had planted them there, for he guarded
them carefully and drove away the
birds that slipped in once in awhile to
peck at them. The blades soon grew
into large stalks and actually bore
ears of corn. When the corn was ripe
the little fellow climbed up the stalk
and Toasted on the pulp, and he would
stand no interference from birds or
man.
Doubt arose as to how the seeds had
got into the cage. Some thought that
the kernels must have been thrown in
with other crumbs. But the keeper
said he believed the chipmunk had
planted the corn on purpose.-Spokane

THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION

The Chicago COnve on,
though not wanting in political
strenuosity, was after all rather
quiet Sunday School pic mic
compared with that of our Demo-
cratic friends at Baltimore,
where, according to the press
dispatchs, "a free for all mix-up"
occurred on the closing day of
the convention, in which dozen
or so men were "upon the floor
at one time, not in a parliamen-
tary, but in a literal sense, pum-
melting each other as vigorously
as though the fate of the Nation
depended upon the outcome Of
their lively tisticuffs!
Yet after all, that long and
turbulent session was a great Oc
casion and made some right no.
table history. Not a few sons OF
Anak were to be seen in vlgor'
Gus action upon that stirring
field. But high above them all
lowered the gigantesque figure
of William Jennings Bryan-the
American Warwick whose mere
ipse dixit could make or unmake
something vastly greater than
English Kings, ,to-wit, American
president.
His utter domination of that
vast body of strong men, by the
power of his superb OratOry, by
his political sagacity and his
personal courage-a domination
that swayed their conflicting
purposes TO his own will and that
too, despite a highly organized
and powerful political machin-
ery-was one of the finest spec
tacles ever beheld in any Con
vention- Indeed, so totally did
he overpeer even his tallest con-
temporaries there, that one Is
almost tempted to think of him
as possessing the fabled stature
of 120 feet that the Talmudists
ascribed to Adam!
