Now riumm,ne slrds Baths

Not being acquainted with the bath ing habits of humming birds, put out an abalone shell as the most artistic bathing dish for her, but never to my knowledge did she pay the least atten- ton to it. One morning in the midst of a shower, however, she crouched down on the wet blade of a dogwod leaf and with head outstretched and rapidly fluttering wings spattered the rain drops in every direction. She went from leaf to leaf until she had sue cceded in getting her feathers very wet; then she perched on a twig, shook off the drops and carefully preened her feathers. It is not improbable that in the absence of rain humming birds use the dewdrops in early morning. In closer captivity this bird bathed in gladiolus blossom. Hereafter pitcher plant is to be used. A humning bird which was accustomed to drinking sweetened water from a spoon one day found water in the spoon instead of sweets, whereupon she at once a1ight- ed on the edge and took a bath.-Kath- erine E. Dolbear in Atlantic Monthly.

This gallant robber of mems purses and ladies' hearts was of French ex- traction. Duval became so rich with his i'll gotten gains that he was enabled to retire from the profession and re- turn to France. But a quiet life, free from the excitement of his old career. did not agree with his adventurous spirit He returned again to England and resumed his avOca ton. At length he was captured at the Hole in the Wall, in Chandos street While in prison awaiting his doom many ladies of position visited him and endeavored to obtain his release, but justice was inexorable, and he was hanged at Ty- burn in January, 1870. His epitaph in St Paul's church, Covent Garden, speaks of him as "Old Tyburn's glory, EngIand's illustrious thief" and tells us:
 Here lies Duval. Reader. if male thou
 art,
 Look to thy purse; if female, to thy heart Much havoc has he made of both.

FAVORED BY HOUSE
Members Vote to Allow Street
Railway Tracks to Pass N.
! E. School Property.

After short debate concerning the val
ue of street railway franchises in
Washington, the House today passed
the Senate bill authorizing the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Company
to extend its tracks past the Metho-
dist University property.
The bill provides that the extension
of Wisconsin avenue and Macomb
street, extend along Macomb street to
Massachusetts avenue and thence along
Massachusetts avenue to the District
line.
Congressman Austin of Tennessee,
said he would object hereafter to any
street railway extension bills unless
provision is made for the payment OF
a franchise tax to the District. Street
able In Washington.
Uncle joe Cannon said the proposed
extension would go into a section not
$hickly populated. Il think / might
hesitate to build a line there myself"
he said. but 1 introduced a bill SINH
lar to this at the request of citizens in
the northwest section"
he paid an incidental tribute to
churches. saying that although he some
times was denounced by lobbyists who
had an interest in the church in which
MS wife was long a member.
Both Mr.. Cannon and Chairman john
son, Of the District COMMITTEES, ex-
planned that the Washington railway
companies pay a tax upon their gross
revenues. which is, in part. fran
chise tax, 3fr. Austin wanted to know
II the District Committee would bring
in bill to require the payment Of
franchise taxes for privileges ssranted
this and other street railways.
The present District Committee goes
out OF commission in a few days" said
Mr.. Johnson. II don't know what the
District Committee in the next Congress
will do
