It is hard to believe, for who ever heard a canary do more than tweet and carol in cage or treetop? Many who are taken within hearing of the whistler insist that they are being tricked by a ven- triloquist, or that it is a stuffed musical bird. So hard to convince are some that even when the little fellow is seen to hop and flit about his cage they declare their bewef that it is all an ingenlous and me- chanical musical triek toy. forth and the delicious quality of the sounds cannot be described. Not all the air does the bird whistle, for he accom- plishes only a part, but there is no mistak- ing that which is heard. Bravely and tunefully, he starts at the beginning, and, omitting several of the repeated portions, he persists to the end. He keeps to the key, too, as only such a bird or that human songstress, Melba, can, and phrases so perfectly also that not a shade of the well-known sentiment is lost. Nor does he tire hearers by constant repeti- tion, but is contented to disclose his ac- complishmont occesionally or when bidden by his master. ea Tae ‘When the time comes for showing him off a few notes from the beginning of the song whistled or played’on @ violin by tac master will suffice to start the little fellow, unless, indeed, he is nervous. Too many persons about, chattering chil- dren, or a clatter of notses, prove too much even for his equanimity, and there will come tweets, chirps and a few trills upon invitation or command, but no more. Then, The tune the canary whistles is “Mary- land, My Maryland.” Roundly, clearly and almost triumphantly he pipes the notes Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup is a very ef- ficient remedy.

BEEMAN ROS ‘COR.7¥V ano Ss How American Occupation of Cuba Has Been Delayed. CAMP SITES IGNORANTLY SELECTED a Commissions Have Been Having a Very Good Time. ———— CRITICISM SOME s (Copyright, 1898, by Chailes M. Pepper.) From a Staff Correspondent. HAVANA, November 23, 1898. Cuba is ready for American military con- trol. How soon the troops are coming I do not know, but it cannot be a long time now till the impatience of the people is satisfied. With the military occupancy will come responsibilities, some of which seem to be tmperfectly understood. For that reason I write of them, with proper apolo- gics in advance to the various Individuals who may not like it. A dyspeptic or a sour man could write a disagreeable letter on the first impressions of temporary American sovereignty. But these November days are BETOOSSTS009000000000000008 as soft and mild as June days in the north, < and nobody ought to get ill-humored. If E. F.

A simple record would form the chapter. Or if testimony were needed the historian might Jot down what the commissions think and say of on The Ev I would not be understood as including the evacuation commission, which arrived in September, in this category. Its mem- bers have been restive and sensitive. The have wondered why there was so little criti- sm in the American newspapers when so much might have seemed open to criticism. Probably the situation was better appre- ciated in the offices of the newspapers than it was by the commissfoners, for in the United States {t was understood that get- ting the Spanish troops out of Cuba was one of several subjects which had to be settled ir Parls and Washington. Natur- ally here in Havana only one thing was thought of, and that was the making ready for American control. And it is just to say that if the commission has made ready slowly this was because of the policy which was enforced by circumstances. Whatever differences of opinion the members may have had among themselves have not in- terfered with their official function: ‘The machinery placed at their disposal for transacting business has been ample be- yond their wildest dreams. When affairs with Spain wound up they could outfit the Czar of Russia with an experienced force Jarge enough to do all the work ne ry in carrying out his project of unt- versal disarmament.

The troops are not coming down to a strange land, among barbarians, who need to be impressed with their importance. The people are passably intelligent. Some thousands of them have been away from home. So far every uniform which has ar- rived in Havana has been surprised that its appearance did not cause a sensation.
