The Male Ostrich Has But One Mate
and the Female le Rather Stupid
Ostrich Amusements Are of Pe
culiar Character.
Thp ritoenlx, Arlznnn, herd of os
triches Inhabit an nlfnlfa pnsture of
forty acres, three miles north of the
oily. The herd Is fcoiiiI In size in Am
erica, niiiiilierliifc 175 birds, the inwst
herd belns at Kullrrtou, Cal., and num
beriiiK IKK) birds.
'I'he first birds brought from South
A fried to America for breeding pur
poses enme to California in 12. Iu
INKS fourteen chicks from tills herd
tvere brought to lMioenlx for exhibi
tion, and were bought by .losinii llnr
bert. who proposed to bleed them. The
purchase wns made during t lie sum
mer and Mr. Ilailieit put the young
birds In coops, carefully covered the
coops with cloths to keep out the sun,
ami drove out to his home In Allium
bra. All the birds but two were smoth
ered to deatli during the trip. It being
impossible to distinguish between the
seyes In young ostriches, nod fearing
he had uo mule bird, Mr. Ilnrhcrt pur
chased one of tile mule birds brought
from Allien. The 17." birds constitu
ting the present herd are Ills descen
dants. He has been honorably retired,
and Willi the dignity lieliuiiig bis pu
tiiiirchhil position he knocks the stuf
fing out of everything that conies with
in his reach. It was not long ago tiuit
he engaged M. lick roll, rrcsidctit of
tho Arizona Ostrich Company, In an
Impromptu "scrap," and while Mr.
I'll kri'll is a husky old bird himself
and was armed with n wooden pitch
fork, old 'hum raid" hit. hbn one welt
anil knocked him out for several days.
The ostrich Is a monogamist. At least
he has but one wife at a time. The
match-making is arranged by the hu
man keeper, who puts each pair of
birds in a separate corral. Mr. Csirkli
Is likely to consider the qncstlou of
imirrittire for some days after he Is In
troduced to Ids partner, and much
thought on the question colors his
shins and beak a bright red. When he
fl.nally determines t tint a family
should be reared, lie digs a nest in the
ground. He then drives his mate tip to
the nest and calls her attetit ou 1 1 It
by giving her a kiek. If she Is dull in'
comprehension, and she usually Is, hi'
continues to kick her and scold her.
and his voice much resembles the loar
of the lion. lie Is often compelled o
go to the extreme of kicking her over
the S-foot fence forming the corral.
She Dually, however, sees her (liny
and begins to lay eggs which averng'
three pounds la weight. The Hist two
or three eggs nre not fertile and v. ill
not hatch. This fact, curiously cuotig i.
Is known to the mother and she !uys
them outside the nest. Hut In this tin il
ls a wonderful provision of nature
On the African desert the nesting of
the wild birds Is done In the hills n:
mountains, far from water and the
haunts of beasts or men. Hut wh;:
the nest may be ninny miles from w.i
ter, the first requirement of the chick
when he comes from the shell Is water
or its equivalent In liquid food, lien e
the necessity of the two or three ster
ile eggs, which the mother breaks af
ter ber brood Is" born, and on wi ld)
the chicks live until they are strong
enough to travel.
Left to her own Judgment the lieu
lays perhaps ten eggs, at the rale of
one In two flays, and when the nest
looks comfortably full, the incubation
begins. Hut the artifice of man de
ceives her. He systematically takes
the eggs from the nest, and us long as
her work seems to be unlliilsii: d t' e
hen continues to produce eggs. Hy this
system two hens oil the I'hiienlx farm
last year produced fifty eggs each. ,he
cannot be deceived, however, as to the
sterile eggs. If they are put In the ne.-t
she w ill continue to pull them out, mid
will llmilly quit laying and abandon
the nest.
About fifteen eugn constitute a s 't
tlng, nnd the period of Incubation Is
forty-two days. The male bird doe the
greater share of this labor. He takes
charge of the nest at 5 o'clock In ti e
evening and remains with it until !)
o'clock In the morning, when the fe
male takes charge. At noon he relieves
her for an honr, while Bhe lunches,
and she then keeps house until 5
o'clock.
one of the most Interesting charac
teristics of the ostrich is the manner
In which he takes what may be called
his "constitutional." Every moitiliig nt
sunrl.se the herd of young males en
gages in a foot race, which concludes
In a combination cake walk and reel.
In single tile they w 111 race around the
pasture at a two-minute gait, on II
thoroughly Umbered up, and then sud
denly forming in a group go through
gyrations that suggest the waltz, the
Virginia reel, the cake walk uud the
"happy Jag." It is a grotesque perfor
mance, but there Is a singular grace In
the birds' play, nnd when they are In
full plumage, with their great wlngg
spread, the sight Is beautiful. I'liocuW
Urapble.
The Organist an Autocrat. -
"If there ever Is any trouble In the
congregation about the music, and If
the minister ever worries himself, it
is admitted at once that the congrega
tion and the minister are alone to
blame," writes Inn Macluren in the
January Ladles' Home Journal. "Hut
there are other difficulties, and they
may be mentioned In a spirit of becom
ing humility. For one thing, the organ
1st la an artist, and every artist has a
nature of special refinement which
cannot bear the rough-and-tumble or
dinary methods of life. With a man
of common clay you deal in a piucii
cul, straight forward and even brutal
fashion, arguing with him, complain
ing to him, and putting him right
when be Is wrong. Hut no man must
handle precious iioreehiin in suc h fash
ion, or the artist will be iiisiuutly
wounded and will resign and carry his
pathetic story to every quarter, for, as
a rule, the organist thinks that he is
lifted above criticism and public opin
ion. It is impossible to teach him any
thing; it is an Insult to suppose that
anything could be better than the mu
sic he provides."

Etiquette Is an Important Part of a
Japanese Maiden's Education, and
a Deal of Care la Given to the Ar
rangement of the Girdle.
Miss Ethel Maud Soper, a student
at the Woman's College, was born in
Japan and lived there a long time.
Phe is the daughter of the Rev. Julius
Snper. of the Methodist Church, who
has been a missionary In Japan. Misa
fioper speaks as follows of the differ
ence between a Japanese girl and an
American girl:
"The first remark made after an In
troduction Is, 'And what might be
your honorable age?' And you may
be sure that If the answerer be a Jap
anese she will give her full age and
even be tempted to add a year or two.
This is the indispensable question in
polite society. There Is even a special
costume which only women over 80
may vfear. The long, dull-colored gar
ment cannot be altered, but the lining
of the sleeves and neckpiece are mad
of the most brilliant Bcarlet. The
sandals are laced with scarlet thongs,
and a close skullcap of the same color
ing completes the dress.
"The dress of a Japanese girl Is
mnde of straight pieces sewed to
gether. Japanese sewing Is very dif
ferent from ours. There are no ruffles,
no gathers, no bias folds, the fashions
never change, and a girl may wear
her mother's or grandmothers frock
without a thought of fit or fashion.
There are however, prescribed dresses
for different classes of society. A
Japanese can tell at a glance, but
European will get hopelessly bewil
dered at the class distinctions Indi
cated by a tiny thread of color In the
sleeve or slight variation In the way
of wearing the hair.
"The upper class Japanese girl usu
ally has a loose garment of some dull
color lined with brighter tint. Our
fnahlon of putting bright silk linings
In our coats came from Japan. A ball
dross might be of a dove-colored
crepe with a pink lining; the skirt
showing beneath this might be hand
painted most elaborately. The neck
piece showing above the loose outer
garment is often of variegated silks,
beautifully ornamented.
"But the most Interesting article of
a Japanese girl's toilet to herself Is
her belt. FliBt a width of crepe Is
wound around the waist to hold the
dress In right position; over this
comes the belt proper. It Is often at
least 16 inches wide; made of any
substance, but. always lined with some
heavy material like canton flannel.
Some of these brocade belts, with
luces, which come from the Bhoulder
to the feet, cost as much as $200 or
$300. It takes a good deal of skill to
get the belts on Just right, and a
large part of a Japanese girl's educa
tion consists In learning exactly how
to do it."
"I taught a princess once who was
very close to the throne. She would
come to my house with several attend
ants, and in the most costly robes,
but If the weather was warm she
would be barefooted.
"The hair Is dressed very elaborate
ly and always by a hairdresser. The
fashion of puffing the hair over cush
ions, or- "rats," as schoolgirls call
thorn, Is a Japanese Importation. The
past fashion, too, of wearing bangs,
comes from another Japanese, way of
wearing the hair. They fix their hair
once, or at most twice a week, for it
stays fixed until the hairdresser calls
again. For fear the structure will get
tumbled when she is asleep, the Jap
anese girl dispenses with pillows and
sleep with a wooden rest under the
back of the neck and the head quite
unsupported.
"Very comfortable It must be. but
a Japanese girl, llko an American girl,
will do a great deal for the sake of
appearing well.
"Etiquette Is an Important part of
a Japanese girl's education. There
are professors of etiquette in Japan
ese schools, Just as there are profes
Bors In languages, and a girl must
know how to enter a room, how to
Introduce and all the numberless rules
of precedence. All men. of course,
take precedence of all women, unless
they have been Christianized, then
they assume our ways with woman
kind.
"One specimen of this exaggerated
politeness Is In their salutation.
Where we would say, 'I am glad to
see you,' they would say, 'I hang upon
you honorable eyelids.'
"The Japanese girl Is apt to be In
dolent. Knitting was a great occu
pation with them, and now that the
Europeans have taught them other
kinds of work they go wild with de
light over crochet stitches and differ
ent kinds of embroidery. Almost the
only game that the girls play la bat
tludore and shuttlecock. They do
this a great deal, looking pretty and
picturesque when they play, just as If
they had stepped off a Jananese fan.
"It was always very hard for the
missionaries to get hold of the wom
en of the family. When they called
only the meu and the children-would
appear, and when the wife was asked
for, 'O. she Is Just a stupid thing,' the
loving husband would protest.
"A woman has little control over
her life. She marries at the will of
her father or elder brother, often
without seeing her future husband
till she is led to the altar. The man,
too, is governed by his father, who
selects the bride. But human hearts
are the same everywhere, and there
are some genuine love matches, even
in Japan.
"There Is no furniture In a Japan
ese house, only cushions. A table for
meals is so small that It looks like
a tray. The difference between the
house of a poor man and theresidenco
of a millionaire consists In the timber
of which the house is built. You can
not find a knot In the wood of a beautifully-built
bouse. - Then the matting
on the floor will be of the finest and
the sliding doors, perhaps, beautifully
hand-painted. The kitchens, too, have
no furniture except the stove; there
Is not even a table; all the work Is
done on the floor. As you can imagine,
it Is beautifully clean. There is just
one peculiarity In this housecleaning
the kitchen floor must be washed
with cold water only. It U never ex
actly washed, however, but rubbed
over with cloths wrung from cold
water. And it nhlr.es beautifully, like
the finest maho(kny table." Balti

His Fourth of July Experience With
Explosives In a Patriotic Pennsyl
vania Town Convinced Him That
He Did Not Want to Go to War.
The travellngman who sells hard
ware remarked that he was afraid
that he would die of heart disease If
he was ever compeHed to go to the
front. His friends wanted to know
what made him think so, and after
lighting a fresh cigar he said:
"It was several years ago that 1
made up my mind never to go to tfar
unless there was great need of men
and my decision was not changed.
"Business had been good with me,
and landing In a certain Pennsylvania
town one Fourth, I determined to
take a day off and celebrate the day.
The result was Hint I walked over
bait the place, attended a picnic In
the afternoon, danced until my feet
were weary and returned to the hotel
for dinner pretty well tired. So far
so good, but I did not know where to
stop.
"After dinner a man of my acquaint
ance proposed that we go out to see
the fireworks nnd off we went deter
mined not to lose an hour of our holi
day. The fireworks display was to
be on top of a high hill, almost a
mountain, on the edge of the town,
and, as I remember It now, th:'t
hill went almost straight up and
down. We followed the big crowd
though, and at Inst reached the too
About every one in town was on the
summit of that hill before 9 o'clock,
when the display was scheduled to
begin, and we were crowded and jost
led on all sides.
"In due season some one put a bl?,
rocket In place and touched it off. It
started with a rush, rose high In the
air and exploded. While the sparks
were falling all the women said, 'Ah!'
long drawn out, and half the folk
crowded around to get a better view.
There was a woman with a big straw
hat right In front of me and I was
side-stepping when there was a roar
In the middle of the platform where
the fireworks were lying. Before any
one knew what was wrong a big sky
rocket darted over the heads of a
thousand or so spectators, so close
that they could feel the rush of air
following it.
"A moment Inter a flourpot began to
spout unexpectedly and seeing the
sparks falling all over the platform
most of the spectators decided that
It was time for tnem to go. Yours
truly was among the number. I
started down the hill on a run and
was soon making ten-foot Jumps.
Even then I was only holding my own
with a big fat. woman Just In front
of me and there were some In the
crowd who should have been handl;
capped to make anything .like an
even race.
"We made a quick trip, that Is my
friend and myself, but the skyrockets
were going much faster. They kept
passing over our heads constantly nnd
once a big wheel of some kind sailed
by me going toward the bottom of the
hill like a runaway. About a hun
dred yards from the top of the hill
there ran a stone wall perhaps four
feet high and some of the high-gear
sprinters went bang Into it. The men
and women who did not lose con
sciousness groaned or screamed when
they Btruck It and hearing the uproar
in front of me I slowed up a little and
then making out the fence through
the darkness vaulted over It with a
sigh of relief.
"But my troubles were not ended.
It happened that a husky ironworker
had chosen shelter behind the fence
Just when I went over and my feet
came down fairly In the middle of his
back when I landed. He started to
swear like a trooper and half rose to
give me a short swing when a sky
rocket struck the top of the wall Im
mediately In front of him and stuck
there while it sent red and green balls
back up the hill In great shape.
"That settled the ironworker. He
ducked down in a hurry and before
he had time to think of me again I
I had rolled ten feet away and was
sticking to the leeward side of the
wall trying to keep my heart from
1 choking me. I succeeded, but it was
I hard work, and it was really weeks
' before the effects of my run and the
I excitement bad passed away.
' "All the men and women who had
passed me in the stampede were
keeping as close to the wall as they
could, but there others coming and
the early arrivals had troubles of
their own. Somehow I escaped, but
few of the others were so fortunate.
The ironworker was a notable ex
ample. Less than ten seconds after
the heels of my patent leathers had
scraped along his back he suffered
another accident. This time he had
an encounter with a man of near his
own weight who came over the fence
dragging a small boy with him.
"They both landed on my would-be
antagonist and he gave a yell that
could be heard above the noise of the
explosions and the cries of those in
the crowd. Every one who could not
see him concluded that a rocket had
struck htm and the women and girls
ssreamed with renewed energy. No
sooner had the man and hla hpy mado
their escape than two half-grown girls
plunged over the wait and once more
the ironworker yelled. One had land
ed on his head and the other on hla
outstretched arm. The Ironworker
would have fought them, but no one
ventured to say a word while he held
! forth. He was a marked man. though
and the persons near him made haste
to give him a wide berth. Ttey were
content that he should suffer alone.
Of course, there were other persona
trampled upon, but It seenieu to me
that he had more than his share of
I hard luck.
"The next morning I learned that
one young woman oad been killl.d by
a skyrocket, while several other per
sons had been hurt. A one-legged tin
horn gambler was declared to be re
sponsible tor the premature explosion
of the fireworks. After lighting
cigarette it was alleged be threw I
burning match into a box of rock'
on the platform. I knew nothi
about the truth of this, but 1 decide:
that week to do a lot of dodgiuy
before going to war.' N. Y. Sun.
