It is snid at the state doparttnunt that our govern ment has not protested against tbe ac tion of the Nicaragua government in granting a ooncewlon for the building of the Nicaragua oanal to Eyre & Cra gin, after the expiration of the Marl time company's concession next Octo ber. What the department has done is not of recc-it date, and consists solely of making of roprosenations to the Nic aragua authorities to the effect that the United Statos deemed it only fair and proper that the status quo should be maintained in matters relating to the Nicaragua oanal until the board, headed by Admiral Walker, has had chance to report and congress an op portunity to consider that report. This is diplomatically something very differ ent from a protest. The reasoon that this action is taken Is that tbe making of a new concession by tbe Nicaragua government, even though it will take effect only upon the expiration of tbe piesent concession to the Maritime Cannl Company, might operate to pre vent the latter from obtaining an ex tension of Its concession, to which it might be justly entitled. 'In the event that congress should legislate upon the basis of the con strnction of the work nndcr the aus pices of the Maritime company, this, of course, would seriously jeopardize the Interests of tbe United States.

The wings of birds are not only to aid locomotion in the air, but also on the ground and water. One bird even has claws in the "elbows" of its wings to aid in olirubing. : The elephant does not smell with his trunk. His olfactory nerves are con tained in a single nostril, which is in tbe roof of the mouth, near the front, : Humming birds are domesticated by placing In their cages a number of paper flowers of tubular form, ooutain- ing a small quantity of sugar and water. which must be frequently renewed. Of this liquid tbe birds partake and quick ly become apparently contented with tbeir oaptivity.
