DRUMMING OF GROUSE. 1
The Process ss Described by an Cb
servant Woodsman.
A particular th'si Tip! Ion of the mnn
ner In which the male ermine drums
is given by Edward Hanks, of Price
County, Wla., who has ppent pome
time In observing It at this pastime,
If it may be called a pastime. Hanks
lias been building ft cabin amid the
hemlock woods near Long Lake, going
to Ma work just after daybreak and
pulting In all of the day hours with
axe and saw.
Knrly In May he heard a grouse
drumming. As usual the sound seemed
to be long way oft", but he decided to
Investigate and bepnn moving softly
among the trees, lie found the bird
within fifty yards, got within twenty
yards of It, hid behind a big birch and
watched it.
The grouse stood upon a dead log
nearly three feet through and bare of
bark. It was standing motionless
when Banks saw It, apparently half
asleep.
Soon It began to show signs of un
easiness, poking Its head tirst to the
left and then to the right. Then It
squatted, bringing its breast within
an Inch of the log and began to drum.
The drumming lasled for eight or
ten seconds, then ceased, and the bird
became once more erect. Fully five
minutes elapsed before it drummed
again. Po long as he watched it, Inter
vals of from three to five minutes
passed between the drummlngs.
It always preceded the drumming
by the signs of uneasiness, moving Its
head to rieht and left, sometimes
shifting It feet upon the log. Just be
fore the drumming started, when it
had squatted Into posllkm, it spread
out tho gray feathers of Its tall as
widely as they would go. making a fan
Just as the turkey gobbler spreads
Its tail when it struts.
This fan the grouse brought down
upon the log and held It there, press
ing Its against the timber as tightly
as possible, and It kept It so while
the drumming lasted, not relaxing the
tension until the last sound had
ceased. While drumming the head
was stretched far forward and the
neck was riuld.
The bird always began Its drum
ming by two or three tentative flaps,
given slowly and producing only a
Boftly muffled noise. It Reemed to be
doubtful of Its ability to drum and ap
peared to be trying how It would go.
After these two or three Haps It
brought its wings sharply against its
body and sailed out Into the full tide
of Its Instrumentation. The strokes,
at first slow. Increased swiftly in
rapidity, finally merging Into the
thunderous roll mado by the wings of
the grouse when In full flight. Then
the drumming ceased abruptly, not
shading down into slowness and soft
ness, as It had begun.
Sometimes, having completed its
beats, the grouse would walk up and
down on the log for two or three
feet, evidently Immensely proud of It
self. Always when the drumming was
resumed, It took Its original position,
standing with Its feet In exactly the
same place.
In making this sound -the rear edges
of the wings were brought down and
forward. The grouse. In fact, seemed
to be scooping its wings forward and
slapping Itself upon the breast In
much the same manner as a man slaps
himself upon the chest In cold weath
er; only, of course, the wings were not
crossed. The wings were brought as
far forward as possible and out
stretched before they were slammed
against the body.
On every clear day since then this
grouse has drummed on the same log,
standing in the same place. It keeps it
up for hours In the morning, goes
way shortly before noon and returns
about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, drum
ming nearly until sunset at intervals
of five minutes.
Banks Is certain that It does not
brush the log with the tips of its
wings and that such contact has no
part in producing the hollow, thunder
ous notes of the drum. There Is
short green moss on the log where
the grouse stands, and though the
bird has drummed there not less than
a dozen times this moss shows no sign
of having been disturbed.
Banks is certain that the female Is
nesting somewhere near. When the
ben is sitting the male bird does not
wander far from the nest N. Y.

This will bring him back, under dif

PAWNED A SKELETON.
The Oddest Thing Ever Taken a
PleHge.
'The oddest thing I ever lad of
fered to me," said a pawnbroker, "was
a skeleton, and I didn't lake It. I
hadn't any doubt that It was all right;
that the man who offered It owned It.
and had a rit;lit to sell it. but I didn't
and had a right to sell It, but 1
didn't want It. I suppr.se he was a
medical student who wanted money
Just then worse than he wanted a
skeleton; but 1 didn't .know anything
about the value of human bones, and
how much to advance on them, so 1
didn't take it.
"Of course, you understand that not
all pawnbrokers ta!;e everything.
There are men who advance money
on nothing but watches and diamonds
and Jewelry and pictures and that sort
of things, and who wouldn't give any
thing on the handsomest sntln-llned
overcoat that ever was, because It Is
not in their line. They have no con
veniences for keeping such things.
Then there nre pawnbrokers doing a
general business who take all sorts of
things practically any and every
thing that is offered them. They
might occasionally run across some
thing that, tliey wouldn't take, as 1 did
with the skeleton, but not often;
there's practically nothing but what
is offered at one time or another.
"I like to deal witli these fellows
who follow the races, for they are
among our best rustomers. I've let
many a man of this charae'er have
more than the value of the article
pawned, simply because I knew that
he would come back and make good.
They generally no me the amount tbey
than the value of the article pawned,
simply because I knew that he would
come back and make good. They
generally name the amount they
want, and I make out the ticket and
hand over the money. The question
whether a man who wnnta a loan is
likely to redeem what he pledges lg
often taken Into account. It Is a com
mon thing for a pawnbroker to look
at a man? maybe a stranger, and lend
on his Judgment of the man as well
as on Is knowledge of the value of
the article the man puts down on the
counter. Of course, mistakes are
made, but the pawnbroker takes the
chances, and the most of thein are
good Judges of human nature. I have
tilings In my safes that I know I
could never get my money back on If
forced to sell, but I know the parties
who pledged them will come and get
them. When I get a customer I try
to keep him, and I have people who
have been dealing with me for many
years. . Of course, when one of these
comes In and offers an article and
isks for a certa'n advance, he gen
erally gets It unless It is out of all
reason. Now, If that had been a regu
lar customer who offered the skele
ton, I guess I would have managed
some way to let the man have the
money, even If It had been necessary
to let him. keep the skeleton. Well,
the fact is, I didn't want the thing
around the place here anyway."

Pilfering London Clubwomen.
The club epidemic which is sweeping
through the world of women has de
veloped some extraordinary propen
sities. When tho various clubs for
women In London could be counted on
the fingers of ono hand, each with a
very moderate members' list, the fact
petty larcencies were now and then
committed a handkerchief here, an
umbrella tlicro was a matter of com
paratively small importance. . Now
that fashionable quarters abound In
women's clubs, that more than one of
these clubs rejoices In a members' list
of close upon two thousand women,
and that another will occupy a club
house which contains three hundred
bedrooms, tho quality and quantity of
women belonging to them can no long
er be regarded as negligible.
It Is an open secret althouh It is
of course In the Interest of each club
to avoid an open scandal within Its
own gates that no day passes without,
the disappearance of articles varying
In value from a few pence to a few
pounds, the loss of which, from the
time and manner of their disappear
ance, can in no single instance be
ascribed to venullty of the staff. They
are adroitly "lifted' In the ebb and
flow of members and their visitors.
In some clubs so complete is the un
derstanding that "findings is keep
ings." that It Is considered Inadvisa
ble to leave a tempting sable cape, an
engaging muff or a particularly small
umbrella under the envious gaze of
commandeering eyes. A new version
of the house carrying snail Is suggest

TEMPERANCE. r "
Growth of the 8plrit Shown In Recent
Lco,6li,t,on
Po much noise Is made over the
temperance question and the enforce
meat of anti-liquor laws In our North
ern Slates that the general public has
been able to hear and know but little
about tho progress of such laws In
the South, where more actual ad
vancement hRR been progressing all
through the Soulli for many years,
until the larger parts of the States of
Kentucky, Alabama, (Jeorgia, Missis
sippi and I.-outpiana have been
brought practically under prohibition.
One may travel entirely across some
of these States, It Is said, without
pnsring through A plngtp saloon dis
trict. Even Texas, which In years
gone by very unjustly gained the
reputation of being loose and lawless,
has been almost captured by the pro
hibitionists. Three fourths of the
State Is now said to be under the
Local Option law excluding all liquor.
To be more precise, of the 2:t(l coun
ties of the State, 14 are wholly dry
save the county seat, and only fifty
eight nre wholly wet. And the coun
ties that nre either wholly or largely
dry represent a tota' population of J,
21M.o:t!t, while the wet counties repre
sent only 72..ft25. A movement Is
now on foot In Texas to pass a pro
hibitory law applicable to the whole
State, and on the basis of the figures
quoted It looks as if the thing would
be done. It may thus happen that
while Vermont and New Hampshire,
on our Northern border, have actually
abandoned prohibition, the great
Commonwealth on the Southwest will
take It up. and, what Is more, will be
likely to enforce it, affording the rest
of the country a unique object Ie3son.

THE WOOD RATS' INDUSTRY.
Constructed . a House .of Kindling
Wood and Kept It In Repair.
In the nntnrnl history coming under
my observation I have not seen any
thing concerning tho wood rat. It
may be that the rodent Is too com
mon to attract special attention, hut
I am Inclined to believe that. If he
Is widely distributed he Is rarely ob
served. About two years ago I became In
terested In a pair of wood rats that
seized upon and possessed themselves
of my wood house for a habitation.
The bouse Is thirty feet long and one
end of It used for a work bench, re
pair shop and tool house. The other
end Is used mn'nly for storing dry
kindling wood and small stove wood.
The rats moved In v lien I was away
for a period, nnd the pair found a
good supply of dry pine sticks a foot
to sixteen inchei In leiifrth split from
Inch boards. T!;c;n were of various,
widths frr.m one to fKe Inches, and
there w"re a numV'T of heavy sticks
of scantling In a c ii:-.'r. With not-v
ble industry the r: 's hud piled the
small st'cVs i-:tn a 'i r'v ru'ar r-vra-mid,
Ush;g t':e rr-'vy pieces tliey
could not move 'or foun.Mnn nnd
frame. alintin-T t' -'r an hi! pet tire to
the conditions of ti e locution with re
markably Inrenu ty.
Their architect:!! : fi't'vl In with thf
landscape In the vi oir-ouse so wel'
that It was soi-e On before I notice !
that the ki"d!ii'n wood vns methodi
cally p'aned As tyt wr.ailier came
and the ItlrdUnir whs nenled. I fre
quently took .in nr.nfnl Into the hour"
without realizing that I w.as taking
eargoyles and cornices from a private
residence.
In removing tho sticks I oflen
pulled down a quantity of the pi e In
selecting. After doing tills for some
days I began to notice that each
morning the pyramid was reformed,
the scattered sticks collected and
placed methodically. As the wood
was used the pyramid grew smaller
and smaller, but each morning all the
scattered sticks, except some that be
came wedged and fastened In the
larger and heavier wood, would be
found replaced upon the apex of the
diminishing pile. When the wood had
been about half removed I began to
get occasional glimpses of the rats.
When 1 removed sticks they dodged
In nnd out of the pile, as though they
would defend their castle to the ex
tent of their power.
The wood was never entirely re
moved, and that which remained was
kept In a fairly shaped pyramid until
It was not more than three feet In
diameter. The rats, of which I had
never seen more than two, became so
tame that they would remain In sight
on the sills near their house within
an arm's length of me at times. Lat
er In the season the mistress of the
pyramid appeared with two young
ones.
1 now began to miss some of my
portable property. Files, small chisels,
nails, measuring Btleks, patterns,
pieces of leather and such articles
would disappear from my work bench.
These from time to time I would find
mixed In with the sticks In the build
ing material used by the rats. Since,
I am Informed, this Is one of the
traits of the animal. They are so ex
cessively Industrious that they annex
almost anything they can carry or
drag with very indifferent ideas of
property rights or ownership. They
are partial to bright and glittering
things, such as bits of grass, tin and
metal. They would doubtless acquire
and hoard money with almost trust"
like perspicuity and acumen If they
were not so much addicted to twigs
and kindling wood. Forest and
