Do Animals Love Musiei

by the clatter Of horses hoofs and
"a mans voice singing Killarney"
says a writer in the London Daily Ex-
press. Peeping through the venetian
blind I saw that young Midland
railway carter was the vocalist, and
that his horse, which was harnessed
to heavily-laden van, was following
him in zig-zag fashion, across and
up the steep road which runs past my
windows. He was not using a whip
or touching the reins, and the horse
kept his nose near his shoulder, but
when the man stopped singing, the
horse stopped pulling. 1 have heard
the land girls say they sing to the
horses and cows they look after, and
that the animals love 1t, and I know
In India some Of the hardest labor
is done by oxen, driven-not with
whip or goad-but by the singing Of
the native boys in charge of them:

Grjeyinu Cows.

An Essex correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Mail writes: This morning
T. i witnessed strange sight in which
herd of cows, an old bull and a few
calves took part in meadow near my
house.
A COW that had recently calved died
In the night and yesterday morning
lay out stiff on the frosted grass be-
meath tree. During the day cows
roamed near the place and stopped to
smell and lick the side and face Of
the dead animal. Not till this morn
ing did the knacker's cart arrive to
carry the body away.
When the vehicle was drawn to the
spot the whole herd came slowly up
and stood round watching intently,
with heads down, and an indescrib-
able expression, which seemed half
questioning and half sympathetic, In
their eyes. Seven Of them and the
old bull came up and licked the dead
cows face, In one instance as it was
being hoisted into the cart. When It
was taken away they stood watching
it to the far side of the meadow and
through the gate till they could see 1t
no longer. Then they smelled all over
the spot where It had lain.

men ORDERED TO
RETURN TO WORK
General Strike Committee Calls
Off Sympathetic WaIkout
at Winnipeg.
IN EFFECT FORTY DAYS
Negotiations Between Police Commits.
sion and Members of Old Force
May Result in Reinstatement
Of the Discharged Men,,

Winnipeg; Man., June 25.-The
general sympathetic strike which
has been In progress here since
& May is has been called off.
Men out have been told to re-
turn to work Thursday morning,
June &c, at II o'clock.
This was the decision arrived at
by the general strike committee.
Winnipeg, June pa new strike
publication, the Western Star, was
placed on the street few hours after
the Offices of the Western Labor News
had been raided by Northwest Mount
ed Police.
j. 8. Woodworth of Vancouver, a
former preacher, editor of the News,
was arrested on charge of sedition,
supposedly in connection with articles
published dealing with last Saturdays
riot. Copy and type were confscated
by the police.
The Star prints sharp criticism of
the action of the authorities in clos
ing down the labor organ and says
that, "as fast as the authorities close
one channel of truth another will
Open" The new publication consists
Of one sheet and does not carry the
name of the editor or place of tpubli-
cation.
Negotiations between the police
commission and members of the old
force are continuing. The discharged
policemen have offered to separate
from the labor council and acknowl-
edge only the authority of the police
commission. Alderman J. K. Sparl-
ing, chairman of the committee said
that the only points at issue were the
signing of the pledge not to join SYM
pathetic strikes and a clear under
standing that certain men would not
be taken back under any circum-
stances.
Thirty or more street cars were. run.
ming and service is expected to be
normal in few days. Strikers are
returning to work individually in in
creasing numbers. Metal shops report
many additions to their forces.
1t is estimated that less than 10000
of the $4,000 men who walked out May
10 remain idle.

soapy Pear.

Little Jeanne was tremendously In
terested in the patriotic songs she
heard at the community singing to
which her mother had taken her.
A few evenings later she was play
ing close by as her mother practiced
at the plano. Mother" she asked,
"can you play that piece about the
'soapy pearY I like that one best Of
ALL"
Her mother, knowing the child had
confused some words, played various
melodies she remembered hearing at
the community singing and finally dis
covered, through this method, that it
was the song "Over There" Jeanne
referred to. The refrain, $50 prepare,
so prepare" was the one which to
her ears, had sounded like "soapy
pear"

BISHOP ALONE SAW GHOST
Hoax cieveriy Carried Out by Noted
Eccsesiastic IL Recalled by a
British Paper.

The great Bishop Wilberforce was
staying at great country house. AZ
he took his hostess down, to dinner he
glanced behind him and saw five cou-
pies following, and last of all an &C.
clesiastic In monks costume who
was strange to him.
He remarked to his hostess, II see
you are not superstitious about sitting
down thirteen to a table"
His hostess went deadly white, and
said, "For heavens sake say nothing"
Sitting down, he noticed that only
twelve seats had been placed, and
moment after saw the supposed monk
standing behind the hosts chair. 1t
was not long before he realized that
no one but he saw the figure. After
dinner the host explained that the
monk was an apparition which none
but the head of the family, in each
generation, had ever seen, and that Its
appearance always foretold disaster.
The next day the same figure ap-
peared to the bishop in the garden ana
explained that in life he had been con-
fessor to pre-Reformation head OF
the family and had been reading
written confession from penitent.
Being suddenly called away he had
slipped the confession into the volume
OF the Fathers he was reading. he
had died suddenly and could not rest
for fear 1t should be found and the
secrets of the confessional revealed.
He exhorted the bishop to find the
confession and burn 1t unread.
The bishop went to his host and
said, II do not know If you have a
library. do not know If there is a
volume Of such and such Father
on the shelf / name. Come and look
They looked, found the book, found
in 1T an old manuscript, yellow with
age, and burnt 1t. The monk never
appeared again. Bishop Wherefore
told the story. But he was wag, and
among friends he never concealed the
fact that he himself had invented the
entire tale for the purpose Of seeing
what people would believe if told with
sufficiently grave face.-Manchester
