Then 1 went from her, down into my
garden, where the day grew hot and the
flowers were beginning to droop. l stared
upon them and could find no solution to the
problem that worked in nay heart. And
then | glanced up, eastward, to the sun
above the piyet-hedge. and saw him across

and Suey Ong longs.
The possibility of war among the high
binders in Chinatown, which has kept the
police on the alert for the past ten days, is
at end. for the present at least.
1t was intimated in THE CALL a week
ago that the Chinese Consul and the Six
Companies had taken upon themselves to
act as mediators between the Blng Ong
Tong end the Suey Ong Tong.
The police state that the Bing Ong Tongs
had never been in trouble before and would
have continued 10 be peaceable if one
OF thar number had not been shot by the
Suey Qngs.
Then followed the challenge and the
fuslilade on Stockton street on Sunday
night February 10, when at least two
Chinese were wounded
:, Several meetings have been held since
then between the mediators and members
OF the rival tonPs, and the police have been
informed that botn factions have decided to
6ury the hatchet and obey the law of the
land.
On the faith Of this compact the China
town squad has been reduced from five
to four.

Eggs In tine Neat of the Pelican.

I have been informed that the brown
pelicans steal eggs from one another's
nests in order to fill their compliments,
or at least take possession of those they
find lying on the ground and roll them
into their nests. Although this does not
seem at all likely for various reasons, I
cannot dispute it authoritatively, and,
moreover, there were strong proofs that
such was ths case in many nests that
examined in Florida. These nests,
which were near together, often con-
tanned four eggs, never more, one to
three of which were ready to hatch, the
others being fresh or nearly so.
And, again, there would be eggs in the
same nest with young over week old
or young of ages quite 10 days varia-
ton. But one point was ever observa-
BILE, the young or eggs or both, never
exceeded four in number, showing, even
if the charge of abduction is proven,
that the old birds know their hnit.-Dr
