And the Telegram Mad* nim * Harry
Horn* oa the Double-Qalok.
Gibbs was a commercial traveler
and had gone on a journey to the
North. A few days afterwards the
Gibbs household was increased by one
—a boy. As the mother was very ill
the doctor was requested to write out
a telegram informing Gibbs of the
addition to his family and also his
wife’s illness, and asking him to re
turn home with as little delay as
possible.
This was done and the telegram
was given to the servant to send off.
That Intelligent girl, being unable to
read, put the message in her pocket
and forgot all about it. The next
day Gibbs paid a flying visit home and
was gratified to find his wife and
family going on nicely. After stay
ing at home a few hours he took his
departure without anything having
been said about the telegram, which
his wife naturally supposed he had
received.
A day or two after he had gone the
servant found the message in her
pocket and after consulting her fa
vorite policeman Bhe decided to send
it off at onee without saying a word to
anyone about the delay. That night
Gibbs upon returning to his hotel,
was horrified when the following tele
gram, bearing that day’s date was
placed in his hand: .
“Another addition, a son; your wife
is very ill; return at once.”
“Another!” he gasped. “Great Jup
iter!"
He rnshed to the station and took
the next train home and dashing into
the honse in a state of frenzy, de
manded to know what had happened.
The servant confessed all. Next day

there was a vacancy for an intelligent
honest girl at Gibbs’ establishment.
KEEN-SIGHTED GULLS.
Ever on the Watch tor Trifles Which
They Might pick Up.
“Anyone who has watched the gulls
and other fish-catching birds along
our coast must have discovered how
keen is their sight and how cunning
ly they discover a school of fish long
before a fin has disturbed the surface
of the water,” said Captain E. M.
Bates, of New Bedford. “Oftentimes
when at sea I have tested the vision
of gulls that happened near my ship,
to the great amusement of the passen
gers. I remember one occasion when
the ship was going along at a pretty
rapid rate I noticed a number of gulls
following closely in our wake, appar
ently on the watch for anything that
might be thrown overboard. Going
to the cabin I procured a small biscuit
and returning to the deck prepared to
show the passengers the wonderful
powers of vision possessed by these
birds. Breaking the biscuit into
small pieces, the largest of which was
less than an inch square, I dropped it
into the seething waters just funder
the bow of the vessel. It was of the
same color as the hissing foam into
which it was dropped,and by which it
was, of course, rapidly carried astern.
Once dropped it was utterly invisible
to our eyes and we could only guess
as to its whereabouts, but before it
had fallen thirty yards astern a large
gull detected it and with a headlong
dart dipped into the foam and secured
it. With equal dexterity the other
bits were picked up, one by one, the
gulls at last venturing so close to the
vessel that they seemed to be watch
ing our movements with their large,
bright eyes. ”

Another society is to be organized
in New York for the rescue of sane
persons illegally and improperly con
fined in asylums for the insane. The
organization already in existence is
conducted by a number of enthusi
astic persons who are positive that at
least thirty per cent of the inmates of
asylums in the United States are sane
and kept in duress by persons inter
ested in depriving them of their lib
erty. Several members of the exist
ing society have been in asylums as
patients and they are the most vehe
ment in their assertions. They have
succeeded in several instances in se
curing the release of persons from
private asylums, and in one or two
cases the patients had to be returned
because they had not been cured.
Just what the new society expects to
do remains to be seen.
The Kcglmental Dog.
A novel feature at the military
tournament is a collie used for carry
ing despatches. The dog wouid
scarcely have scored anything in, say,
the open class for rough-haired collies
at the Kennel club or Collie club
shows, but it was evidently an ani
mal brimful of intelligence,'a quality
which dogs accustomed to the show
bench may sometimes be rather lack
ing in. Collies, as a matter of fact,
are now used quite extensively for
military purposes, and a number of
foreign regiments have their collies,
just as the Twenty-third lias its goat,
though with much more practical ob
jects in view. The collie may not be
able to find his way home, like the
pigeon, at long range, but for short
messages, and when he knows the
