hears tempest of wings pass far above In
the dead of the night. Of late the depart
meut Of agriculture at Washington has
given much attention to the subject of bird
migration, and has sent out circulars to
lighthouse keepers asking them to fill in
blanks naming the birds that strike the
lanterns in spring and fall, and if they do
not know the name they are requested to
forward the wing and head.
1t is estimated that during the marching
season, which is now at it's height, many
millions Of birds pass southwark every
night. They come from every part of the
north and fly 500 or 600 miles without rest
ing.
The birds that fly in the night rest and
feed during the day along the route. The
night flyers, as rule, live in coVerts in the
north, and they are afraid to expose them
selves in daylight in large numbers; but
those that haunt open places mount high
into the air at sunrise and fly till dark.
There has been some cold weather lately
IN the north, and this has set the birds on
the southern march. They stay about their
summer h8unts till gray frost comes some
night, or the pools are skinned over with
Ice; then there is a gathering of aeri al
plans. The old ones, birds that may have

WORK OF THE NfAFIA.
A New York Italian Killed With a
StiIetto.

New YORK, May 10.-A stabbing af-
fray which bears a strong resemblance
to the work of the Malta occurred Fri
day night in the Italian quarter in West
Hoboken. Almost the only things def
initely known about the case are the
name of the man who was stabbed and
the probability that his wounds are
dangerous. There is one wound in his
breast and another in his neck, both
made with a stiletto. The victim is
Louis Peretti. silk weaver, who
boarded on Spring street. He had
given up his employment and
made arrangements to sail for Italy
yesterday. On Friday evening he was
the center of group of excited Italians,
who were talking and gestulating at
him. Suddenly two of the Italians
seized him, one on each side, and a
third plunged stlletto into his breast
and neck. Some of the other ItaliaEs
interfered and saved him from being
murdered outright. Justice Schneur-
lger. of Union Hill. who was witness
OF the scene, sent for policeman, but
before the messenger could find one
PerettTS asSallants were released by
their companions, and they disappeared,
running in the direction of Jersey City.
Policeman VermOrel followed them for
a short distance, but soon gave up the
chase. Peretti refuses to disclose the
names of his assailants or make any
complaint against them. The West
Hoboken police hold that this relieves
them from any responsibility in the
matter and they will not make any eff
fort to capture the murderouS aSSas

SANE OR INSANE.
Lawyer Bach Makes Some Rather
Startling Statements.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-The anti-kid-
mapping leagues lawyer, Albert Bach,
Will / tomorrow publish a card re-
plying to the statement of the ma
tional convention of the insane asy-
lum superintendent at Washington, D.
O., that no sane person has ever been
unlawfully imprisoned in an asylum
Mr.. Bach announces the statement as
false and ridiculous, and cites the cases
of Mrs. Clarissa g. Lathrop. author of
IA Secret Institution" and Miss Anna
E. Dickinson, both of whom, he says,
are shown by the record to have
been imprisoned without any legal
authority, and that of Mrs. Harriet E.
Beach, wife of the editor of the Scien-
tific American. who has just been re-
leased from Bloomingdale asylum on a
habeaS corpus obtained by the anti
kidnapping league, and adjudged by
the court to be entirely sane, as Miss
bathrop previously was. Mr.. Bach
record, that the league is in
possession of evidence that many
persons are unlawfully confined
in the very asylums whose
superintendents deny that such a thing
has never happened and that they are
investigating these cases. He states
that in another case the league has
positively ascertained that the physi-
clan who consigned lady to an asylum
certified that she was insane without
ever having seen her, and that the
league have called the attention of the
authorities to the matter. and are work.
ing to have this physician indicted and
punished.

CLERKS HAVE A SCHEME.
They Have a Plan for Pensioning
the AGED.


WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Sunday
Herald says: A movement is on foot in
the various departments of the govern
ment located in this city to establish
what may be termed a comparative pen
sion scheme for the benefit of those
clerks who, through advanced age or
physical disability incurred by their
service for the government, become un-
able to attend to their duties. By
fund established through a small
monthly deduction made from the sal
airy of each clerks those sick or
aged would receive pension
during the time Of their disa-
bility, or for life when regu-
larly retired by the action of an
percentage of about 2 per cent a
month be deducted from the salary of
each government clerk and deposited i'll
the United States treasury to be held
there in trust as a fund to pension those
regularly retired, and to pay limited
amount to those who are temporarily
disabled, For some time this idea has
been talked in a general way, but it Is
understood that definite steps are being
taken to put the matter on firm footing
with the intention Uf carrying it into
effect. Statistics are being taDulated to
ascertain the number of clerks it would
affect, the number of years of service
of each, those entitled to retirement,
and the amount that would be obtained
by per cent reduction of salaries. 1t
is very probable that, with these facts
in hand and the sound argument the
clerks can present in favor Of the plan,
a bill will be submitted to the next con-
gress legaliZing this action, 1t is claimed
by those interested that congress can
not oppose the bill, as they ask no money
or aid, but simply the legal sanction of
that body. Tne number of clerks
of an advanced age who are retained in
the departments simply because of their
faithful service for many years is very
large. They have outliyed their actual
usefulness and are allowed to remain
only for the reason that if dismissed
they would be in actual want. With
the pension they could be retired with
the result that the number of promo
tiOnS all along the line would be very
large. A clerk that receives a salary
of 81, 200 would be Obliged to pay an
nually S24, but the very fact that they
paid this amount enables man to be
retired, and the one who pays his dues
is promoted TO 81, 400 position. Thus,
the clerks assert, by giving S24 one
makes SIG. 1t is understood that the
movement has the sanction OF the prom
inent government officials,
