How Crows Catch era bs.

Fishermen in Harve dc Grace, at the
mouth OF the Susquehanna River, tell
amusing stories Of the way crows catch
crabs aud prepare them for eating.
When the crows first come in the spring
they visit the streams connecting bay and
ponds every morning looking for crabs.
They commonly arrive before crabs be.
gin running, but the crows exhibit great
patience, sometimes waiting ten or fifteen
days. The crows scan the stream from
small tree tops or mounds Of sand. 9th
ers stand cn the banks of the rivulet with
heads cooked sidewise and an eye star
ing at the water. When the crabs begin
running the crows dive into the water
from any coign Of vantage near by,
clutch crab soar into the air and drop
their prey with great precision on the
stone-covered beach which fringe5 the
bay. By this means the crabs are re-
duced to pulp and the crows, with much
wing tapping and discOrdant cawing,
vors ciously bolt the meat.
Captain Tom Carroll, of Chincoteague,
saws he once saw five crows teasing a
crab. One of the birds caught and car
ried it to a big sandbar. There it was
put down. The crows cawing brought
five of his tribe. They pulled il about,
turned it upon its back and fumed over
it. These gymnastics were accompanied
by hoarse chattering and gurgling
sound which Carroll AYERS was laughter.
To vary the sport they would make be-
lieve to fly away, but dropped softly to
the sand forty or fifty feet of. From
that point the dusky Quintette OF prac-
teal iokers kept their eyes intently fixed
on the crab rolling along in the direction
of the water, 100 yards away. The
crows, without sound, craued their
necks watching their hard-shell victim
looping laboriously through the soft, dry
sand. Suddenly they broke into wild
chorus of caws aud made after the crab
One picked it up and scared away to the
beach, followed by his fellows. There
he was dropped to death and the crows
flew away to their roost--Nec York

Suicide Statistics.

The grim subject Of suicide is con-
stantly being forced upon the attention
of New Yorkers. Tue daily papers ire
ouently report as many as dozen cases
of suicide Or attempted suicide within
twenty fours hours aud the num-
Der of reported cases by no means
represent the number OF cases that
occur. Their. is law on the
statute books which makes attempted
suicide felony. On referring to statis-
tics | find that the maximum rate oil
suicides in New York during the last
eighty years was in 1905 when there was
one suicide to every 3017 inhabitants.
The minimum ratio was in 1864, when
there was one suicide in every 2o,S97
inhabitants. The largest number oil
suicides among males occurred between
the ages Of thirty-hvc and forty, and
among females between thirty and thirty
Eve. About one.tblrd of the whole
number of suicides use poison. Nee

Plueens in Journalism.

The Edinburgh (Scotland) evening
papers have trained service OF carrier
pigeons for use at race meetings, football
or cricket matches, shooting com.
petitions; and in all out OF. .the-way dis
tricts, where there are no telegraph or
telephone within easy reach, they are often
very useful. In connection with the Edin-
burgh Eceninq Dispatch, the pigeons are
important adjuncts to the reporting staff.
They are housed in quarters specially
erected for them on the fiat roof of the
Office, the dovecot including an ingeni-
ous trap arrangement and electric bell.
Many people have very hazy idea as to
what a carrier pigeon can and cannot
do. They seem to imagine that it Is
possible to send the bird out as well as
in, and that with a little training it can
even be induced to go to the nearest
restaurant for the reporters lunch. OF
course, that is all nonsense. What a
reporter expects pigeon to do is that it
shall fy straight home from the place
where it is liberated.
A few words as to how it is done.
When a reporter desires to use the pig
eoas, he leaves word the night before
with the person in charge of them. This
is very necessary. When they are to fy
far on any particular business, it is bet
ter that they should only be lightly fed
in the morning. The pigeons-two or
four, as may be required-are caught IN
the morning and placed in a comfortable
wicker or tin basket, like a small lunch
con basket, with compartments. The
reporter, when he leaves the office,
carries the basket with him. He also
provides himself with a book of fine
tissue paper, "dimsy," and a sheet oi
carbonized paper, "a black He
writes his report very legibly and COM
pactly, so as to put as much on page OF
oiimsy" as it will possibly hold. Then
he rolls the "Aimsy' neatly up and at
tachcs it to the leg Of the bird by means
Of an elastic band Or he may send two
pages Of "Aimsy." one on each leg. The
pigeon being released, makes straight
for home. In the carrier pigeon the
home instinct is strongly implanted, and
if the bird has been taken of its nest,
it has an additional reason for wishing
to get back as soon as possible. 1t also
knows that there is a good feed of peas
and maize awaiting it at the end of it
