SPARROW HAWKS GOT SNAKE.
Reptile Seemed Is Have Small char~~
Against the Little Though
Fierce Birds. ~

We soon found that there were two
sparrow-hawks about, and by the 7th
Of March it seemed evident that they
were mated and we're considering the
locality as summer residence.
We now saw them almost daily, and
the perfect domestic harmony, indeed
1 should say affection, shown between
them. and the tender care and gal
lantry on the part of the male, would
seem to suggest high plane Of evo-
luton, and reminds one again that
all the world is kin. Indeed, what
have we Of altruism which may not
have its beginning In the humblest
creature?
In accord with history and tradition
the male was chief hunter, but very
often shared the game with his mate

back window, attracted by a loud call
Of ktllee, killee, killee, killee, we would
frequently see him returning from the
hunt with rat, mouse, or an Eng

fessed that even small song birds were
not strictly prohibited under his lib
eral Interpretation of the law. In
moment the female would light on a
perch nearby, whereupon the male
would Immediately remove the mouse
from his talons, with which the prey
Is almost always carried, and politely
deliver it to his mate from his beak.
One bright. sunny afternoon there
was an unusually excited call heard.
It seemed that gartersnake had
glided forth from its hiding place to
enjoy the early spring warmth, cir
cumstance which proved more fortu-
nate for the "early bird" than for the
early snake. 1t was most picturesque
and exciting even to a spectator to
see this fierce little bird, slightly
smaller than a flicker, flying about
from tree to tree as If In search of a
more favorable stand, struggling with
his writing prey. When the snake
had been decapitated and several
inches of it's length devoured, it
seemed sufficiently subdued to be Of

Was Marcus AureIius a Prosecutor?

Was Marcus Aureiius Prosecutor?
Under the reign of the prince
philosopher, Marcus Aurelius, were
the Christians prosecuted? After Re
nan, Linsenmayer and Allard have
charged the memory Of that emperor
with this infamy, now A. P. Lemer-
cier, professor Of Caen, in a preface
to his just published edition Of his
"Pensees," at the hand of history, con-
tests the statements of these savants.
According to him, the instructions
given by Marcus Aurelius to the legate
Of Lyons were of political and not
religious nature. Besides, the prince
was then Ill, and it was impossible for
him to control the legates reports.
Several texts intimate that Marcus
Aurelius alleviated certain measures
taken against the Christians and that
those which he dictated we're perhaps
exceeded. The discussion bears on
very remote facts. If Marcus Azure
Illus had had foreknowledge of the
controversy he would undoubtedly
have cried with Antisthenes: 1T is q
royal virtue to act well and to let
calumny run its course"

STATE COMMISSION MAKES ia
PER CENT INCREASE FOR WI
Lagos OF MORRISON COUNTY

Real estate assessments in. villages
of Morrison county have been in
creased 10 per cent by the Minnesota
Tax Commission, notice of such in
crease having been sent to County
Auditor Billstein. The increase covers
all structures and improvements as well
as lands in the villages. The city Of
Little Falls is not affected by the in
crease. 49,.
The commission, in the communica-
ton to the county auditor advising
him Of the increase, states that the
increase was deemed necessary after
comparison with other counties and
checking Of sales data. These changes
are very conservative and not as high
as the data in the hands of the tax
commission indicate they should be,
yet in view Of the depressed business
conditions that exist generally through
out the country, we are inclined to
equalize values on a conservative basis
this year, the letter states.
At present the commission is work
ing on personal property abstracts and
any change made on peronal property
assessments will be known soon.

The Old Family To-day.

According to rural paper CEN
tral Kentucky. man prides himself in
the possession of ''toddy glass" that
has been in his family for over cen
tury. The ''toddy glass" recalls an
old Kentucky custom that was an in
stitution down to ante-bellum days.
The ''toddy glass" was utilized for
the mixing of an old-fashioned toddy
that was passed around and paftaken
Of by company and the family. The
common toddy existed before the SAM
tary crusade started and Individual
toddies became the vogue. In these
days even if prohibition did not stand
in the way, the old-tlme ''toddy glass"
likely would be placed under the
health law along with the common
drinking cup.-Louisville Courier
