Henry Special School District.

We, as opponents of the special
school district for Henry, Tenn.
consider the plan and methods
of the advocates to be unfair, un-
Just and without due considera-
ton of our interests.
1st. They made no survey OF
the boundary lines of said dis
trict and failed to read or give
any definite location of the lines
at the time of the so-called cleo
ton, but instead said the lines
would include about four miles
square around Henry.
End. 1t is asserted that they
made this imaginary line to take
in such parties as were known to
favor their proposition and to
leave out those who opposed. A
copy of their bill which reached
us some weeks after said election
includes several opponents who
were told at time of election that
they were not within the bounds
of said district.
In view of these facts we, the
opponents met and appointed a
committee to wait upon the pro-
moters of the said district and
suggest and ask that they join
us in laying off a special school
district. defining the lines in a
four mile square, not favoring or
lodging any one, then to ask for
legal election of the white real
estate owners in said district, so
as to get fair vote and senti-
nents of the tax payers who will
nave to stand the cost of this
district, we agreeing to abide by
a majority vote.
They, the promoters, positively
refused our request, saying they
had no authority, and referred
Us TO the County Board We
have talked with members of the
County Board and were told they
had no jurisdiction.

probability finer rural residence at
the time Of its completion than any

time when the builders put on the last
coat of paint and told the Cubber-

of New Amsterdam, across the upper
bay, followed the example of the orig
inal Cubberly promptly In establish
ing themselves upon the salubrious
and picturesque hills Of Staten island.
The Cubberly cottage was but the
pioneer among many. In fact, as his
torical records show, the new settle
ment on Staten island grew SO rap
idly at that time that some people
thought 1t might outgrow New Am
sterdam. The Cubberly cottage came
into the possession of the Brittons In
the year 1896, when 1t was decided to
Nathaniel Britton, an ancestor of the
owner who has given It to the public

with all its contents, will be kept open

Steam-Heated Humnlne Birdie.
The humming bird In captivity ts
something of rarity. At recent
bird show in London several were ex-
hibited which were said to have been
living in captivity for six months. They
were shown in steam-heated cages,
each containing little stove of its
own. The cages were decorated with
moss and orchids, and the birds OBJ
tanned a portion of their food by sip
ping the nectar from the latter. To
this was added a mixture Of honey.
sponge-cake crumbs and babies pat
ent food. This seems rather a curl
GUS diet, because humming birds in
the free state feed largely on insects,
and hence would seem to require a con.
siderable admixture Of animal food in
their dietary. 1t would be interesting
to know whether these "littlest of the
bird tribes" are as pugnacious In cap
tivity as when at large. Ordinarily
they seem to have no fear and will at
tack a hawk or a spider with equal
readiness. In view of the fact that the
humming bird is strictly an American
production 1t seems as though our own
geological gardens might intern @
few.
