j People, pas slog along Washington ave
Inue yesterday i wara treated to an ef-
qulslt concert when thy neared the
jepenfler Smith' property, where the liUa
and beautiful lawn Is covered with stately
(elm and ash trees, Hundreds ot robins,
imany bluebird and a number of black -(birds
had gathered there,' evidently i pre
Jparlng for thlr.fUght to tba, south, Each

notes. thU " could be heard tor a';, dis
, tance of several blocks, which arrested

tha chorus. Birds observed, approaching
the trees were all coming from the north.
i and the whola concourse seemed to have
gathered thare to discuss family matter
and things connected with their summer's
experience 'and . the; long 'Journey to the
southland. One could easily imagine th
mother birds were proudly showing to
other -mothers the n members of th
family" that ad com -during the seAaett
and to be. talking of the places whera tlie
Beats had been made. -
TKe birds wera so Joyously happy and
so intent upon their own affairs that they
I, paid no attention to the curious crdwd of
people, their noisy advent had attracted,
and not the slightest, notks was taken
of tin scolding squirrels whow horns
were 4n the same trees. After an hour
and a half, when the concourse had been
Increased by scores of fresh arrivals, the
noisy demonstration gradually died down.
Then a number of the old patriarchs and
matrons of th .flock took wing toward
th' south, 'followed with decorous leisure
by the others. In ten. minutes the trees
were deserted and a string of robins and
bluebirds extended toward th south as
far as the eye could reach, all flying high.
More than. MO loaves Of richly 'browned
bread, were offered by as1 many Council

Armed with a huge knife, that resembled

100 women. His face was a trifle pallid,
but ' bore a stern and determined ex
pression whn he began the work- of dis

by the best women of Council Bluffs.
He fully realised the delicacy and the
danger , of his position 'but he proved
to be en accomplished diplomat. He won

snd Its beauties. In the first three min
utes .he .had .told every woman, present
something valuable . about good bread
making, pointing out the good features,
indicating the defects and telling how to
eorrect them. When th long sharp knife
separated the fragrant brown loaf Jn the
middle ha discoursed learnedly upon other
properties, removing the sting of disap
pointment by declaring that there never
had "been 4 perfect loaf of bread made:
Grain,'', texture and other, essentials of
a perfect loaf were pointed out, followed
by a diplomatic declaration that the gen

knowledge that more than repaid her

scenes. Brady photographs are the only pictorial story of the
trreat conflict from Bull Run to Appomattox. Only in tnis great
compilation pan yoti witness the scenes that welded the Republic
into a mighty nation. 1 . ' ":
