CHANGED TO HEAD OF LIST
Old Negro Had Particular Reason for
Refusing Henceforth to Be
Known as Zeno.

A story is told of an old negro who
had accumulated his savings In bank
In one Of the Southern towns, says the
Columbus Dispatch. One day the bank
failed.
Zeno was the name of the old man,
and when told the bank had failed he
spent hours around the door, as II he
hoped In that way to get his money.
One day the receiver said to him
Don't you know that the bank has to
be examined before any deposltors can
get their money! This is not tho first
bank that has failed"
"Shore, All knows dat" Zeno an
swered. "Ah's heered tell Of banks bus

At last the examinations were over
and the receiver announced that the
depositors would be paid In alphabet
ical order. Some mistake had been
made In figuring, and when they got
down to Ws the money gave out and
Zeno lost his savings.
But he didn't lose all his courage. He
saved for few months and had lit

to the cashier, who said:
"All right, Zeno, we will be glad to
open an account for you"

GREAT BIRDS OF OTHER DAYS
Bones Discovered Prove That In the
MIocene Period They Were Truly
Of Enormous Size.

In so far as birds are concerned,
some Of the Oldest fossils, In the mat
ter of time (Mlocene), which have
fallen into the hands of science, are
those representing the great, flight
less, fossil avian giants of Patagonia In
South America. They belong to the
phorOrhacldae. II. w. Shufeldt writes
In the Scientific American.
Judging from such parts of their fos-
sill bones as have been found, they
were evidently great terrestrial birds
Of prey. Some Of the species were
small, but this Is made up for by the
others; and In the case of one Of them
(brontornis) 1t had thigh bone con.
slderably larger and longer than that

OF all the remarkable fiightless birds
Of this group, however. was the giant
phororhacos. 1t must have been over
eight feet In height. with skull big.
ger than that of a full grown horse,
and much deeper from above down.
ward. We know little or nothing Of
these birds or what led to their ex-
tinction. With its great hooked beak
and powerful claws of great size,
phororhacos must have been terror
to the animals upon which II preyed
Skulls and some other bones Of this
bird have been discovered.

ThInoa That Have Passed.

Here are some things not Of the

the Bible, recite the beatitudes and
give the personnel Of the twelve dis

biscuits and fresh milk In unlimited

His weekly letter, due on Thursday

no letter from him this morning"

"If you don't object, Anne" It ran,

Some of the newspaper correspond

strings of copy for transmission by
telegraph. On such occasions 1t is
not uncommon for four or five who
are friendly to each other to form
combinations and exchange reports.
The simplest way to do this is to have
each writer make carbon copies OF his
