Where the Singing; Canaries II all
From.
"Almost all the singing canaries in
the world come from the Hartz moun
tains, in central Germany," continued
the bird fancier. "As canaries acquire
their singing qualities, and are not born
trith them, and as for various reasons it
would "hardly pay in America to raise
and drill canaries the way they do ifc
- over there, it is quite natural that this
peculiar industry is confined to a
mountainous portion of Germany, where
the soil is barren and where for more
than a century generation after genera-
nun ixaa usevt uiuua a xuctuia luuiucnoo
'theirincome, rather than to depend
on it solely. ' America u-bred birds, for
want of proper training and tuition, are
' hardly ever good siiigers. The best
breed of canaries come from St. Andreas
berg, a village in the Hartz. A practiced
ear can immediately detect a bird of that
breed from among the others. "We
. haven't got this season's lot yet,
' and we shall not have them until the
end of November. They keep all their
, young birds over there until : they ' are

price than any, but they are worth 'the

gurgling notes, such liquid trolls and

; Kttlet hroatsasno other birds. Who; do
you say? Why, because there in St, An
dreasberg they have methods of their
, own and are in possession of some little
secrets in canary culture that other
places do not possess. As a conse
quence the song of their birds is not
only different, but they have actually a
wider vocal range. Of course, this is
all with a difference, too. Some cana-
ries of this breed are not., as good as
others, and the same is true of all the
Hartz birds.
"Perhaps you are not aware of .the
modus operandi, pursued in' the Hartz
in teaching the canaries to ging. They
v have what is known as the regular
bird organ' a small box shaped like
an ordinary organ and turned - by a
- crank mechanically. On this tunes are
played right early in tho morning, and
then , again just before dusk in the
evening, and during this school time no
other, birds are allowed to be within
hearing of them. By and by the birds
pick np single notes and then snatches
of song and mold them in their own
little heads into Something new and
canary-like. Some more tricks and

better at this than othera, and their

"ABBY CRIED AND JACK CRIED."
.4.. J.."... .
How a Carrier Boy Fell In Jjovo with
a LlttTe Whitehead.
., t , . - . ; " ;
It has been going on for a year past.
Jack is a carrier for one of the dailies,
and his circuit takes in a house on
Scott street. One day last spring a
baby crowed at him from an open door
on that street, and J ack tossed an apple
into the halL The next day the baby
was watching for him, and after three
or four days the boy made bold to slip
up the steps and pat the little chap on
the head and leave the stick of candy
he had purchased two miles away. As
time went on Jack came to know that
the baby was fatherless, and that
its mother was pale-faced and hardly
able to drag about. It was weeks
before she epoko to him, but the
baby took to Jack right away and. was
always ready for his coming. After the
first week it was always clean-faced, but
it was a good while before Jack roused
up the courage to give him a kiss and
to ask for one in return. After that it
was plain sailing, and the neighbors
became interested. It was queer enough
that a boy like Jack, having his own
way to make and roughing it until he
had become suspicious and hard-hearted,
should catch on to a little whitehead,
and be more than a big brother to
him, but that was what happened.
And something more. One day he
brought up a quarter of a pound of tea
and left it where the mother would find
it, and this was followed by other par
cels and articles. One day he missed
the baby, and crept into the hall to find
that ho had cried himself to sleep, and
that the mother was ill and helpless.'
Jack roused up the neighbors, and
whatever was "eaten in that house for
two weeks was 'purchased with Jack's
money. The mother could only thank
him and weep. She could not speak
ten words of English..
" A fortnight ago "Jack missed baby
again, and again he found tho mother
ill.); Friends -were with her this i time
and she did not suffer for care. A week
ago there was crape on the door as the
carrier went his round, and baby had
been carried off by a neighbor. When
Jack came around next day. the mother
had beep buried, and people were watch
ing to tell him that the house was
to ' be . vacated and baby was to
go " to a distant city. He had been
brought back to bid the carrier good
brr and "the poor and lowly people drew
off with tears in their eyes, and J ack Bat
on the door-stem and" took baby in his
lap-; and-smoothed his white head and
kissed his red - cheeks. Baby clung
around his neck and seemed to realize
that ; he was to lose a friend, and, as
one who stood by expressed it :
"The. baby cried and . Jack cried, and
the worjn put their : aprons up and
sobbed - like children. When ; they
finallj took the child away Jack's heart
was big enough to break, and throwing
his arms around the little child for the
last time he turned and ran away and
never looked back !"

It is often a matter of interesting in
quiry how a performer conquers an au
dience. To this it may be replied that
John Philip Kemble rendered Hamlet
in such solemn majesty that it won ad
miration. Gamck on tho other hand
mastered the sympathies of the publio
by tho intensity of Lear's misfortunes.
Mrs. Siddons enchanted every one by
stately dignity combined w ith her power
over the emotional nature. Cooke had
so much natural mischief that he made
an inimitable Iago. Kean was master
of the passions and electrified the an
dience by displays of this character.
Forrest's greater power . was his fine
figure and tremendous voice, which
indeed rendered him often a
mere ranter. Booth, like Kemble,
gives us the dreamy, meditative
Hamlet in all tho fullness of dignity
awakened to indignation. Miss C ash
man , had a strong magnetic power,
which made her very ugliness fascmat
ing. Coming down to other performers,
it has been said that Mary Anderson
attracts audiences by a peculiar ease of
gubness of voice, whilo x anme 1aven
port's power is in her fine personal
appearance. TkOse Ey tinge works upon
the svmpathies. Maggie Mitchell s
forte is vouthful vivacity, while it is
said of Cfara Morris that she has tears
in her voice. ' Hence she finds no diffi
culty in making tho audience weep.
Kate Claxton, on the other hand, is
always burned out, or else in some
other danger of the fire king, and this,
of course, renders her an object of curi
osity. The dramatic stars thus differ
in glory to a degree that often sur
prises. On the Wrong Foot.
A little Nor walk boy got a sL'ver in
his foot, and a motion to poultico the
wound.made by his mother and seconded
by his grandmother, was carried in
spite of his objections. He kicked and
screamed, and protested that he would
not submit to any "such indignity, but
the majority against him was two to
one, and the poultice was made ready.
It was arranged that the grandmother
should apply the poultice whilo the pa
tient's ' mother stood over him with a
stick with authority and instructions to
apply that also if he made the least show
of resistance. "
When all was reaJ v the youngster was
placed on tho bed and operations be
gan. As the hot poultice touched tho
boy's foot, he opened his mouth to say
something, but his mother, with the
stick, awed him into- silenco. Again
the boy strove to make himself heard,
and -again the Upraised stick warned
him to be quiet. In a few short min
utes the poultico was firmly in place,
and the boy was tucked up in bed, there
to remain until the medicine had done
its work. As the urchin's tormentors
moved away, a shrill, small voice from
under tb bedclothes:

Jeff Davis Capture.
A son of Gen. Albert Sidney John
s ton, who was captured along with
Jefferson Davis, gives the following
'vflrRion of tha affair in an interview? with
"Gath," published in The Cincinnati
Enquirer: i
"Now I did not see the capture; of
Mr. Davis. The first thing 1 saw o
Mr. Davis he was sitting in his tent
There were tents pitched there. He
was under guard, and was in a fearful
state of mind. I said to him something
to the effect that at last we had been
seized. 'Yes,' said he, 'and if I had
not been pinioned by, Mrs. Davis I
would have thrown the scoundrel from
his horse.' Mr. Davis had long before
that told me how to throw a man from
a horse. He said that if yon would
take the horse by the bridle and give
him a jerk, and at tho same time apply
ever so light a movement under the
foot of tho rider, that the jerk and the
upward push together would undoubt
edly throw him on his head. So I sup
pose that his remark meant that he
would have tried that trick on the
countryman who soized him."
"Did Mr. Davis have any disguise
on?"
"I believe that Mrs. Davis did throw
a waterproof over him. Several of us
had these waterproofs. Mine was s
sort of brown color. I understand tha'
when the attack was made on the camp
Mrs. Davis threw her waterproof over
her husband. That is, I believe, the
extent of the story of his disguise.

ono of these officers. I think it was
Pritchard, camo up and addressed him
in insolent language, something like
this: Well. old JJ, wo have
got you at last.' Mr. Davis re
plied: "The worst of. all is that
I should be captured by a band
of thieves and scoundrels.' 'Oh,' ex
claimed this officer, 'we have had plenty
of that kind of talk. You're captured,
that is the long and short of it, and are
our prisoner.' With this another officer,
who seemed to have more decency,
came forward and said to the first man :
'It is not worth while to talk like that,'
and he led his friend away. The lan
guage they addressed to Mr. Davis was
entirely unbecoming a man of character
and the dignity of the prisoner.

pathetic lady. "William is a good

glasses in an argumentative way, "but

me to crawl out of the window one
night last winter to see how it worked.

coat-tail in it, and I had to walk around
him with a pan of hot coals all night to

he take his coat off? I wanted him
to, but he stood around till the thing
opened itself, trying to invent some
way of unfastening it.
"That's William's trouble. He will
invent. A little whilo ago he got up a
cabinet bedstead that would shut and
open without handling. It went by
clockwork. William got into it and
up it went. Bless your heart, he
stayed in there from Saturday after
noon till Sunday nfght, when it flew
open and disclosed William with the
plans and specifications of a patent
washbowl that would tip over when it
got just so full. The result was that I
lost all my rings and a breastpin down

leaned on it up it went, and when he
put it to his eye to find W Jiam it flew
out into a crutch and almost broke the
top of his head off. The other day I
