The proposition Of Senator TELLER that
the Government import reindeer into Alaska
seems worthy OF consideration. The reindeer
is native OF the Alaskan latitudes. and both
In Siberia and in Lapland thousands OF persons
live in comfort because OF the reindeer. where
in Alaska scores merely exist. The Govern
ment is to be asked to give $4,000 toward
bringing some Of these valuable animals from
Siberia to our northern province. 1t seems
entirely feasible to transplant the animals:
our experiment with camels in Arizona was
not wholly failure: and undoubtedly the
reindeer will be Of more value than the mis-
chievous mongoose. which 1t has been pro-
posed to introduce from Jamaica to kill the
rats In certain Western States.

Birds Gathered His Almond Crop.

An a. mond grower OF this locality hit upon a
neat device for gathering his crop last fall.
His trees IS bore iaEEely and this early became
woodpecker tribe OF birds. and they had regu-
larly stored away large. quantities OF ripe nuts
taken from the orchard in the limb OF an oak
tree near by. The astute orchardist watched
operations. and at last hit upon novel nut
and labor saving PLAN and he lost no time In
putting 1t into execution.
The imb was sawed from the tree and re-
placed by sIuare-shaped funnel long enough
set underneath. A genuine robbing game then
went merrily on. The birds gathered the nuts.
which they dropped into the funnel and down
night came the almond grower would in his
turn empty it Of its contents and set it back

hammers had departed broken hearted at tho

FIJI 1t Tn!

Tho most serious impediment to the nat
ural growth OF New York is the Harlem
River. The area OF the city above the Har-
lem Is about the same as that below the
river: 80 that IL there is room on Manhat-
tan Island for two millions and half Of
people. the present boundaries OF New York
proper will accommodate in the not remote
future population OF five million souls.
The Harlem River. however. cuts New York
In two. and seriously restricts and retards
rection OF its growth. AS commercial or
navigable waterway the Harlem is Of no
value or Importance. New York has many
miles Of unlmproved water front adapted
to wharfs and piers. but not likely. even
with the present rapid development Of her
trade. to be brought into active use in
many years. Therefore the Harlem is not
to be considered us an essential water front
either now or ut any time in the future.
The real estate schemes OF few private
individuals. not in all much over half a
dozen in number. require not merely that
the Harlem be made a permanent barrier
to our progress. but that it be made very
much more serious obstacle than it is now.
The opening of the Harlem to alleged navi-
CATION by dredging i.in connection with the
so-called ship canal at the Spuyten Duyvil
end. Is fraught with injury to the best In
terests Of New York. The growth Of Lon
don has led to the flooring over Of the
Thames with bridges. The opening OF the
Harlem would be equivalent In its way to
the deepening Of the Thames and the de-
struction OF its bridges.
Tie thing to do is to fill the Harlem up
from one end to the other. The material Is
on the ground. and the acreage that would
be gained would pay off the debt Of the city
Of New York. Not another dollar Of tho
public money should be spent upon the
ship canal. except so much as may be re-
CURED to convert it into a sewer for the an
nexed district. Tho thing in its present
shape Is delusion and an imposition upon
the people. 1t should never have been un-
dertaken. but 1t Is consoling to know that
1t may yet serve useful purpose. how
over remote that purpose may be from the
original intention.
Fill it up!

The Hand Shake and tho Courtesy.

The manners and customs Of polite society
are generally assumed to be the same every

keen-eyed Mr.. MAX O'RELI. the etiquette

But concentrations arc ever rash. and evil

as Hartford and Chicago.
