THE OBSERVING ROBIN
IIove Doen the Bird Know Jn
Where to Bore For Grab
I once observed a robin boring for
grubs In a country dooryard It Is a
common enough sight to witness one
seize an angleworm and drag It from
its burrow In the turf but I am not
sure that I ever before saw one drill
for grubs and bring the big white mor
sel to the surface The robin I am
speaking of had a nest of young in a
maple near by and she worked the
neighborhood very industriously for
food She would run along over the
short grass after the manner of robins
stopping every few feet her form stiff
and erect Now and then she would
suddenly bend her head toward the
ground and bring eye or ear for a mo
ment to bear intently upon it Then
she would spring to boring the turf
vigorously with her bill changing her
attitude at each stroke alert and
watchful throwing up the grass roots
and little jets of soil stabbing deeper
and deeper growing every moment
more and more excited till finally a fat
grub was seized and brought forth
Time after time during several days I
saw her mine for grubs in this way and
drag them forth How did she know
where to drill The insect was in every
case an inch below the surface Did
she hear it gnawing the roots of the
grasses or did she see a movement in
the turf beneath which the grub was at
work I know not I only know that
she struck her game unerringly each
time Only twice did I see her make
a few thrusts and then desisf as if
she had been for the moment deceived

COQUELINS REPLY
How tlie French Actor Got Inta the
Sab Rosa Club
One of the most famous of the Quar
tier Latin clubs In Paris is iha one
which is called the Sub Kosa
The elder Coquelln the great actor
was present one night at the clubs
weekly feast and applied for member
ship Now the only rules of the Sub
Rosa men are Think much Write
little Be as silent as you can The
presiding officer with this last rule in
mind answered the applicant by plac
ing before him a tumbler filled so full
of water that another drop would have
caused it to run over Coquelin under
stood The club membership w as ob
vlously full
Over the table was suspended a rose
the club emblem While the glass
still stood before him Coquelln broke
a petal from the flower and laid it so
gently on the water that not a single
drop escaped A silent man could join
and make no trouble
Around the table ran a ripple of
smiles and little hand claps and nods of
approval and then as If of one accord
all began making bread balls Then a
cup was passed from hand to handand
each deposited his ballot in it and
all were found to be round Not ono
had been pressed flat In sign of disap
proval So Coquelin joined the Sub
Rosa club Warwick James Price in
Success
His Cottage His Castle
The right of every Englishman to
consider his cottage as his castle was
never but once questioned and that
was by a London magistrate who was
presiding in an action for trespass
My client said the barrister in
making his plea is a poor man he
lives in a hovel and this miserable
dwelling is in a forlorn and dilapidated
state but still thank God the labor
ers cottage however ruinous it plight
is still his sanctuary and his castle
Yes the winds may enter it and the
rains may enter It but the king cannot
enter it

SABATOGA MONEY MAD
Gates and Drake Play Golf at
1000 a Hole

Wnll Street Man Idol of te Cro ivdM

When Tired of Golf Thejy Ilur Ten
nis at 100 a Polut WliiuiM o
Ricli Visitors at Summer Resort
Golf at a thousand dollars a hole
tennis at a hundred dollars a point
poker with no limit and side bets on
every street as to tho number of the
next trolley car that conies along or
tomorrows weather that is the kind
of money madness that has got a death
grip on Saratoga says a special dis
patch to the New York Journal
Plungers like John W Gates and
John A Drake not content with gi
gantic stakes on the races and poker
games made their mornings Interest
ing by playing golf for a thousand dol
lars a hole Now and then they switch
to tennis at a hundred dollars a point
which runs up into the thousands for a
set And the rest of the crowd follows
according to their means
The flush times in California when
men played poker for gold mines the
feverish nights at Monte Carlo where
aristocrats gamble aAvay princely birth
rights are both eclipsed by the money
mania that has broken out at Sara
toga this season The craze follows
the clock all tlie way around
Get up in the morning and go down
to the springs and you will find a
couple of millionaires betting each
other that the first car to come along
will have an odd or even number
Walk out to the golf links and you
will see John W Gates and John A
Drake his substantial shadow mak
ing tracks on the dewy grass and cut
ting divots out of the fair green with
prodigious strokes of brassies and
irons
And every one of those strokes
means about a hundred dollars for
when Drake and Gates play they lay
a thousand dollars a hole
If either should ger eighteen straight
holes the sum of 18000 would change
hands but as they are tolerably
matched it Is rare that more tliau three
or four thousand dollars is won or lost
Of the two Drake plays the better
game but Gates gets a handicap which
squares things up
The caddies on tlie course are grow
ing prosperous and as soon as the golf
craze spreads to the bookmakers gam
blers and the other elite of the place
a job as a caddy will be worth pur
chasing
On the tennis courts which are nu
merous in the handsome gardens of re
tired plungers along the elm shaded
avenues tennis Is Indulged In every
morning before begins the resplendent
parade to the race track
Here money changes owners almost
as fast as It does at tlie track while
spectators on the streets pause to make
side bets as to the outcome of the
particular game they happen to be
watching
If you walk from the United States
or the Grand Union hotel down tlie
main street after dinner you will see
knots of men grouped around pairs of
plungers who are betting on the popu
lation of the town the age of the near
est elm tree the hour the sun sets the
color of the next horse to round the
corner or the name of the conductor
that will bring In the next Saratoga
special
And every bet is a big one
Saratoga Is not the home of the piker
although that variety of gambler is
plentiful about her streets
Since the death of William C Whit
ney Gates is the most Important per
sonage in the village ranking even
higher than Canfield George Wheelock
and other prominent citizens In the
snmmer colony
When he makes bets the crowd
watch him adoringly as he sits on the
rail of the clubhouse and looks over
their heads as they gather on the
lawn If he races down to the lake in
an automobile before dinner the crowd
that can support automobiles follow
after And even when In pursuit of
health and recreation as well as the
ever needful exhilaration of a little
stake he and Drake beat little rubber
balls over blinkers on the golf course
there is a big gallery to see and ap
plaud for the Saratoga crowd knows
that Gates is playing for big stakes
and they like to see any kind of gam
bling where real money Is at issue
Franklins Bicentenary
It Is certainly discreditable that one
of the three Americans who would by
popular acclaim be pronounced to be
the greatest the country has produced
should have so little formal recogni
tion says the Philadelphia Record The
birthday of Washington Is practically
a national holiday Lincolns birthday
is a red letter day In many states but
Franklin the third In this triumvirate
of Americas greatest is denied the
honor of a public testimonial to his su
perlative merits An opportunity is at
hand to make good this neglect On
Jan 17 next will be the bicentennial of
Franklins birth The day ought to be
celebrated in an appropriate manner to
the furthest ends of the country It
would be becoming for Philadelphia to
take the lead in doing honor to her
adopted son
New Peilnffocrlc Theory

0EIENTAL JEWELET
PERSONAL ORNAMENTS MIXED WITH
ODD SUPERSTITIONS
Necklaces That Avert the Evil Ere
and Beads That Are 1otcnt Charm
For Felicity Legend of the ICaaha
Stone The Sacred Signet Kirtr
The orientals love of luxury splen
dor of attire and personal adornment
acts as a strong incentive to tlie eastern
jeweler in the production of those ex
quisitely carved and multicolored crea
tions over which the modern world
raves and marvels Nor are such deco
rations mere ornaments without other
use or meaning
The oriental jeweler seated upon the
floor of his little shop inhaling the fra
grant odors of his pipe and coffee con
ceives his design and jealously envel
ops it with mysticism adding to it the
quaint charm of symbol and supersti
tion The bracelet the earrings the
necklace the clasp the buckle and tlie
button grow step by step Into a special
ornament according to the rank
means tastes and wants of the wearer
an evidence of class and dignity
Bracelets are by orientals worn In
pairs Each hand is provided with one
as otherwise jealousy will spring up
between the manual members and evil
deeds will follow Earrings are popu
lar among both sexes in certain parts
of the orient The ears ae pierced at
birth The perforations are made un
necessarily large so as not to permit a
residue of gossip Then ornaments are
offered the ears as consolation Neck
laces are worn most conspicuously to
avert tlie evil eye and to denote dig
nity and distinction Festoon neck
laces seem to have been in vogue from
time immemorial and not Infrequently
do they adorn the whole chest of tlie
wearer In India the men often bor
row their wives necklaces to decorate
themselves with Masculine vanity of
certain sects of the Persians far ex
ceeds that of women and aside from
wearing earrings and necklaces they
almost monopolize the tiny seed pearls
by stringing them in their beards each
hair being literally covered with a lus
trous pearl
Beads are among the earliest forms
of ornaments and are considered po
tent charms for felicity as these are
often cut and sold by priests or sheiks
who maintain themselves solely by this
means The pear shaped drop so much
in vogue in Europe and America Is of
decidedly oriental origin and has at
tached to it a quaint myth The Kaa
ba stone in Mecca has this peculiar
shape and according to the theory of
the Mohammedans this stone was the
actual guardian angel who was sent to
watch over Adam in Eden and was
present at his fall As a punishment
for not having more vigilantly exe
cuted his trust the angel was changed
Into a stone and hurled from paradise
Most Mohammedans wear pearl shaped
pendants made of wood or some pre
cious stone as a reminder of Allahs
wrath and these are held among them
I in tne same esteem as is tlie cross
the rhristlnns
Armlets are regarded as caste marks
and are worn only by women Anklets
have a healing power and so are worn
not as ornaments only Little tinkling
bells are often attached to these which
lend a pleasing sound to an approach
ing step and serve to denote the su
periority and rank of the wearer and
thus in passing render due homage
An Arabian poet describes these as
the awakeners of dormant senses
Rings are worn in great profusion
and are made of all sorts of metals
However they Invariably have ex
quisitely carved or openwork shanks
Even the stones have their symbols
and are worn accordingly In the
orient no prejudice exists against
opals
Signet rings were of great importance
among the earlier orientals and even
to the present day letters are rarely
otherwise signed by those who send
tbem Thus the authenticity of all
orders and communications even
merchants bills depends wholly upon
an impression of a signet ring The
occupation of the seal cutter is regard
ed as one of great trust and danger
Such a person is obliged to keep a reg
ister of every ring seal he makes and
if one be lost or stolen from the party
for whom It was cut his life would
answer for making another just like it
The loss of a signet ring is regarded as
a disastrous calamity and the alarm
which an oriental exhibits at the loss
of the signet can only be understood
by a reference to these circumstances
as the seal cutter is always obliged to
alter the real date at which the seal
was cut The only resource of a per
son who has lost his seal is to have
another made with new date and to
write to his correspondents to inform
them that all accounts contracts and
communications to which his former
signet is affixed are null from the day
on which it was lost Jewelers Circular-Weekly
