first got acquainted with this bird, and
then wo sbull know hi in tho next time
wo seo him. Thu cowblrd Ih a first
cousin of tho common blackbird that
makes so much noise In our dooryards,
For all his cIoho kinship he has not
inherited nny of the common black
bird's better qualities, lie has lost all
tho glo&s of his plumage and now
woars a coat ns dusty and brown as
nny human wunderer you ever saw.
He has loBt tho common blackbird's
neighborly habits, and usunlly flocks
"all by himself out In the pastures,
The only creatures that stir any In
terest In his being are cattle, nnd
wherever you nee u herd of those nnl
innls grazing over tho pasturo you are
pretty likely to see a cowblrd flying
over their backs, dodging about their
foot or oven resting upon their backs.
That Is why he Is called "cowblrd,"
because cattle seem to bo tho only an
imals ho cares anything about.
Hut I havo not yet told you of the
most unblrdllke trnlt of this relative
of tho blackbird, nnd I nm sure you
will say he does not dosorvn our re

His poor orphaned baby might call
forth our pity If wo were not positively
certain that when It grows up it will
do the same thing. Tho cowblrd nevor
bulldH a nest of Its own. but the fomalo
lays hor eggs In other bird's nests and
lleavea tho other birds to euro for her
child. Worse than that, she selects
somo tiny llttlo pair that build a dainty
house, like the llttlo yollow birds nnd
'lays her egg In their nest only ono In
a nest You can Imagine tho dismay
iot the yollow birds whon they come
homo to find a great egg of the cow

truder out, the neat walls aro too high,
and the? thomHelvos nro too small, so
they lay their eggs and hatch them,
togethor with tho cowblrd's egg. Thon

than the llttlo yellow birds, and his
appetite Is so much more vigorous that
he gets all the food the parent birds
bring and leaves the little yellow birds
to die. A protty state of nfl'alrs. 1

' Hut I must tell yon a good Joko on
the cowblrd that this sime yellow bird

low birds come home mid And their

tablishes the fuel that sugar Is a po

of stamina. This, he contends, Is i.tt

NEW YORK'S WISE GULLS.

know the chief fish day of the week,
says the New York Sun. It Is then

sea me always to be heen in the East
river, opposite Fulton market In the
day time, but they gather there In
greater numbers on Friday because to
iniKh refuse Is thrown awuy that day.
They hover over the surface of the
water by hundreds, taking" from the
water such food as Is to their liking.

The blrdH know from experience that
befoie the ship leaves quantities of
food are thrown from the ship's ports
and they niuke a dash to recover It
the moment the tdilp pulls out. It Is
nmusliig to watch one of tho gulls try
ing to lift from the water a piece of
food twice as heavy as Itself. Some
times these gulls will hover uround the
American Line pier until noon of
Wednesday. At this hour the Red Stur
liner starts for Antwerp, leaving the i
wnter of the slip filled with discarded
food. More fiequently, however, the
birds will hurry off to the White Star
line piers directly after the American
liner leaves her wharf. The White
Star steamer sails each Wednesday at
noon. On Saturdays and Thursduys
the gulls go to Hoboken to get what
the Hamburg-American liners leave
behind. These are about the only lines
that have a fixed hour for sailing and
the gulls have become acquainted with
the fact. The harbor gulls fare better
than their kind far out at sea. The

out of bed and burled under the debris,

cupled n loom on the second floor. The
wing of the home was i educed to
kindling wood, and the occupants were
dug out of a big pile of plaster and
broken timber. No trace of the bed
was found larger than n splinter. The
baby was at first missing. The little
cradle in which It slept was complete
ly destroyed. A faint cry presently at
tracted Brunei's attention nnd the
baby was found bruised under u mass
of plaster and broken furniture, three
feet deep. It was only slightly bruis
ed. The force of the explosion damag
ed bouses for a block around, nnd there
was not a window left unbroken for
more than 100 yaids. The report could
be heard two miles away. The polico
believe that the dynamiting was on at

South Akron has recently been infest

in his efforts to break up the gang.
Several residents of that portion of
the city have fnllen under suspicion,
and they have been closely watched.

sought to get rid of the olllcer. Eight
men are now under arrest on suspicion
of having been connected with the
work. The men under arrest nte:
Frank Klein, Ed Apletzel, Charles

after the explosion the olllcers picked
these men up nt their homes.
All were In theli houses nnd appar

In the neighborhood of the scene, while
every one else for blocks nround was

It Is believed thnt many pounds of the
explosive were used, as the explosion
was tremendous nnd an enormous hole
wns dug In the ground under the house.
The heavy foundation timbers woro
reduced to toothpicks and hurled for
blocks away. A few scratches total up
tho injuries sustained by the fnmlly,
