A CROW FIGHTS WITH A DOG.
The Latter Is the Victor, but Both Are
Badly Punished.


Fred Wulfram of Riverdale took stroll
down to Van Cortlandt Park with his fox
terrier Cricket last Sunday, says the New
York Sun, to pass the rest of the afternoon
by the lakeside. When he reached the
lake the dog started off for fun on his own
account in the old mill, to which Wulfram
had taken him often to catch rats. After
few minutes Wulfram whistled for the
dog, but he got no response. He went to
find him, but he had not gone far when he
heard the dog yelping and barking on the
other side of the old manor house near
Broadway.
Cricket had found large crow and was
engaged with it in a fierce battle. Each
was putting up good fight, but to Fred it
seemed as if the crow was ahead. The
bird would rise short distance in the air
and would then dart at the dog, striking
and picking him savagely. The dog
leaped at the crow whenever the crow
came within reach and snapped and bit at
him, not without good results, as bare
spots on the birds wings and breast at
tested. Wulfram shouted to the dog to
encourage him.
Cricket had begun to act as if he had
enough, but the encouragement from his
master made him pull himself together.
He gave his opponent savage rush and
plucked out lot of feathers. The crow
hesitated a few seconds, as if doubtful
whether it would be wise to continue the
combat. Then he rose from the ground
with much difficulty and, cawing dismally,
flew away toward Mosholu.
When Wulfram examined the dog he
found that the crow had clawed him badly,
having made a deep scratch on his back
and several other wounds, which bled pro-
fusely. After binding up the wounds with
his pocket handkerchief Wulfram took the
dog home. 1t will be several weeks before
the dog will be the same Cricket as before
the fight.

WHAT Is BEHIND TT.

Senate File 131 proposes to reenact
the law of 1878, which provided that
either party to a suit might have a
special or struck jury to try the
cause in which he was interested,
instead of the regular panel. This
jury was selected from a list of
names prepared by the sheriff of the
county, from which names were
struck by the counsel of both parties
until the jury of twelve was OBJ
tanned. This law was repealed in
the session of 1891 because it was
alleged that it was a device of the
railroads and other corporations to
secure jury more favorable to them
than would be the ordinary jury
selected from lists prepared by the
county commissioners. 1t was
claimed that it was an easy and GUS
tomary matter for the corporations
to interest the sheriff in their be-
half, and put upon the list names
which the attorneys of the corpora
tons submitted to him.
The bill was bitterly opposed at
that time by the railroad lobby, but
was enacted in spite of them, and
these and other corporations since
that time have submitted their dis
putes to the juries to which ordi-
nary citizens had to appeal. Aside
from any question as to the
undue influence of corporation at
torneys with the sheriff when names
are selected for these special juries,
there is the larger objection that it
is a special class legislation.
which those able to pay the ex-
pense of a struck jury can avail
themselves of, while the great mass
Of litigants are denied it. For this
reason, if not for the other one. we
trust that the senate, to whom the
bill has been reported by the judi
ciary committee without recon-
mendation, will put quietus upon
it,

( cause it provides for the abnormal
waste Of these parts by an unusually
prompt supply of appropriate nerve
food. 1t purifies the blood as nothing
else can do
If every man and woman plagued
with frequent headaches, and every
business man made anxious by pain
at the base of the brain and neuralgia
twinges, would take Paine's celery
compound, the world would be light
ened of a vast deal of misery that
ought never to be borne.
The most advanced medical thought
of the latter quarter of the 18th century
has prepared Paine's celery compound
to meet and overcome these troubles
that are due to nl-fed, ill-regulated
nerves, and poor, thin blood
N. N. Leaneard, M. D., of Charles
town. Mass, whose. portrait appears
above, one of the ablest physicians
in the Boston district, a man of char
acter and influence, says:
AFTER using Paine's celery COM
pound for four or five years in my
general practice, 1 can cheerfully
recommend it. For catarrh of head
or stomach, for instance, it acts like
q charm. For women in many cases
it is blessing. For chronic rheu-
matism it does give relief Torpid
liver, general debility, constipation,
pains in stomach and loss of appetite
it relieves, and is the best of remedies
In general nervous prostra ton [
recommend 1t to many of my patients,
believing. as | do, in it's real merits
[ believe it public blessing to inva-
lids, and, as yet, not fully appreci-
ated."
]. c. Flynn. M. D., a well-known
Michigan physician, is but one of hun
dreds who prescribe Paine's celery
compound because it cures. Writing
from Warren, in that state. he saws:
i use the Paine's celery compound
freely in my practice as q nerve tonic
plood purifier and general tonic in all
debll1tated conditions of the system
L find 1t fine thing for patients re-
covering from the grip, especially old

don't see why it would not be lust as
feasible to provide means for fresh
air, and at the same time modify the
rlgors of our climate Of course. the
original heat or cold might be lost in
transmission, but the air would al
ways produce heat where it is com
pressed and cold where it expanded "
asked Prof. Crocker why his idea
could not be Immediate applied on a
small scale to bring fresh air in the
summer time from Coney island or the
seashore. He replied:
IT could. 1t would be a very sim
PIE thlng to construct a pipe line from
the seashore with vents along Broad
way or any other points desired at in
tefVals of a half mile or so. and send
1resh air through the streets and make

a temporary relief. 1t would scarcely
De feasible to attempt to seriously con-
trol the climate except over wide areas.
IL would have to be done by national
rather than by state or municipal ac-
ton, and would probably require COOP
eration between this government and
the Canadian and Mexican govern
ments. Such pipe line as 1 have de-
scr1bed would have to extend fromsome
OF the very cold regions of the north
clear into the tropics. This would en-
able us at will to draw cold air from
the north and warm air from the
South. In this way we could probably
very effectively, too, control the rain

device would be to pump hot air from
the tropical zone and cold air from
the region of the Arctic circle. II
would not be difficult, nor would it be
very expensive, to construct a steel
tube system of sufficient diameter to
somewhat modify the climate of the
Eastern seaboard
For example, thin steel tube, saw
four or five feet in diameter would
convey an enormous quantity of air.
One has really no idea of what this
quantity would be until one stops to
figure it out
THE idea is identical with the pipe
line system now in use. Oil is piped
long distances from the oil wells of
Pennsylvania, and similarly natural
gas is piped long distances. Now it
would be just as easy and Just as
feasible to pipe air as oil or gas.
The distance, too, is not so very
great. [ have been surprised to find
how short a line would serve for this
purpose. If il extended from within
the tropical zone to within the Arctic
zone it would more than meet the re-
qulrements and still extend over only
an eighth of circle. It would be only
about 5000 miles long. do not think
that it would require a pipe of more
than four or five feet in diameter, and
the pipe could be built of thin steel
and need not be expensive. Such a
line would not be nearly so costly to
build and equip as a railroad line, nor
does 1t present any material difficult
ties. 1t would be the simplest of me-
chanical problems. and the right of
way would not be expensive.
For motive power some out of the
way waterfall could be utilized, So
that the expense of operation need not
be very great.

DRAW THE LINE AT THIS.

The Venezuelan complication with
England gets additional interest
from its local color. Some Minnesota
gentlemen have been given by Ven
ezuela a concession covering a large
tract Of the disputed territory.
These gentlemen, it is said, have. ap-
prlsed our state department of their
interest and demanded protection.
We can see nothing in this but an
effort on the part of Venezuela to
connect the United States with her
difficulty with Great Britain. and
that sundry Minnesota gentlemen.
taking advantage of the necessities
back OF it to obtain a concession,
with great possibilities of wealth in
1t, are seeking to embroiI the United
States in dispute in which it has no
interest in order that they NAV
reap advantage out of it.
While it is the duty of this country
as OF every country, to protect the in
terests OF its citizens resident in
foreign countries, the doctrine has
never been extended and never
should be extended to cover a case
where Americans, non-residents of a
foreign country, have obtained con-
cessions of territory which is a mat
ter of dispute between that country
and another with which we are at
peace for the purpose of securing
the powerful influence of this coun-
try, both for themselves and the con-
cedlng government. We venture
the prediction that Secretary Gresh-
am will not extend the rule to their
case.
