Do they know their day, the migra- tory flocks of red and blue and yellow and scarlet birds, whose flight toward the north must make a brilliant dis- play of color not surpassed by the rainbow when the atmosphere drips from a recent rain in the glow of the sun? Do birds of mystery, whose coming and going is like the Arab si- lently striking his tent, know their day? Do they know before the time ol their call by the subtile voice of springtime to the more northern fields, where upon some soft morning the residents of a locality will wake to the piping of th: robins, while the entire gamnt of early spring carolers sends its joyful notes piping out upon the balmy air? Do they know when the marching orders of nature wil] be given? No naturalist has yet taken the ground that the birds of migration know in advance the fact of their movements. They are blind to the norrow until it shall reveal to them the path of destiny and duty through the vast space of the skies. This they will pursue with the directness of an arrow from a bow. Somewhere these birds are feeding. It may be in the rice fields of the south. It nm'_\' be in the marshes of Alabama; it may be amid the pampas of South America. Somewhere the migratory hosts are scattered, somewhere they are fluting the familiar notes, and somewhere they are imbibing the subtle influ- ences of unrest. Thongh they may not know the day of their departurs to the scenes of summer in a more northern c'ime, yet are the birds of the pastures and the woodlands as much under the word of command as a soldier oy the field the word? Who issues Who nizes the battalions? Who mob- s the What is it that sends the myriad hosts on their jour- ney toward the scenes of their loving and labor, hundreds of thousands of miles afield? 1t is nature. But, tha: said, the mystery of ornitholigy? tion is rife and science is lesions? what has been added to clear |Christian education, and the proper Specula- [training of our young men and wom- | affied. But [en WAS ONE OF THE EARLY SAILORS, The death of Capt. John Hines in Auburndale recently closed the inter- esting career of cne of the last of the old time deep water sailors. He was but 12 years of age when he went to sea on one of the deep sea sailing vessels, was made master at the age of 18 and remained in command for forty-five years, during all of which time he never lost a vos- sel. There are few ports in the worid where Capt. Hines' vessels iave not touched, his itinerary numbers bcth coasis of South America, Africa, India, Australia, Spain. France, Eng- Nand, 1reland, Heliand and the West Indies, carrying cargoes of salt, lum- ber, phosphate, ebony, ete, as hides, sugar, | The tact that the deep sea sailing vessels have practically disappeared, their place being taken by the tramp steamer, makes the lite story of Capr. Hines the more interesting, and many are the tales of the sea he has told to his friends and neighbors in | Auburndale who never tired of hear-| ing them. | A BOOSTING PREACHER. It would have gratified the heart ot every true Floridian, whether na- tive or immigrant, to have heard the lgronl sermon of Rev. 8. W.
