Among the late arrivals tthe Zoo are
couple OF birds that would be Of inestima-
bic value TO people in this country 7Tho gun
for a living or for the sport there Is in it,
They are called Whoo, whoo" owls, and
thrive only in the central part OF Germany.
The birds are mottied brown in color, with
heads as big as teacups and eyes Us large
as a halr-dollar. Whiie they are nocturnal
birds, their vision is in no way impaired
by the daylight In fact, il is during the
day time that they develop their useful
traits TO the hunters When properly
trained the owls take their stand on the
top OF q tail andactaslookoUts When
ever the game is sighted the owls utter a
soft call that sounds like Whoo, whoo,"
from which their name is derived, and drop
ping down beneath the tops of the trees, so
as 10 be outufsight OF the quarry, they lead
the hunters directly 10 the spot where the
game is 10 be found II is said that in the
hunting OUTFIT OF King William there are
over 200 OF these owls, all perfectly trained,
and the young monarch prefers this kind
OF sport Jo any other. The pair at the Zoo
show their natural chara cteriStics every
time a bird flies over their open air cage by
utgering their peculiar cry and becoming
wildly excited.-Phnadelphi Record.

The front, which is covered with honey
suckle, looks toward pasture where the
pet COW of the Ellerslie herd gambols.
Upon the front swapd there is great open
space where Nr. Morton watches the
tablcaux cn the lawn and the many plays
gotten up by his five daughters. In the
household this portal is known as ''Papa's
private box" and is reserved for the
Governor himself, and no other person
ever occupies it.
VERY MODEST BRICE.
For several years the magnificence Of the
Calvin Brice summer home at Newport
has been talked about quietly by those
who were posted upon the inside workings
Of the establishment. But this year all
the world had to be let into the secret
when Mr.. Brice negotiated for the Wal
dorf villa at $40 600 for a season of two
months.
Although giving his family everything
that is grand, Mr. Briee seeks quiet and
plainness himself. The great front por-
tails, the elaborate yerandas, and the
stained windows tire him mere than they
refresh.
For his own use he claims small side

seldom pass. 1t is q modest doorway

JUDGE BRONN'S IDEAL ROOM
Mr.. Fuller Likes His Grand
children to Play While
He Ponders Law.
JUDGE BROWNS IDEAL ROOM

The Judges OF the Supreme Court are not
content with being get down for a lifetime
on the bench. They are fond Of fitting up
courtronms in miniature at home Here
they spread out their papers, address
imaginary juries, whittle up points OF
law and write bundles OF memoirs that
some day VIII be busted and put into book
form
Their Libraries are the most complete;
from the standpoint of a model bibIiotiGue,
OF any in the world, and In them they live
during the most Of the hours when they are
not holding court No fad OF craze at
tracts them and even the bicycle fever
has passed them by. The most elaborate
OF the libraries is that Of Judge Stephen
Field, who has been upon the bench long
enough TO carry out his ideals He has
been in the Supreme Court thirty-two
years and he is in his eightieth year At
his desk he might pass for a comfortable
judge of sixty. His library is lined with
black walnut bookcases as high as he can
| reach.
Above them are all the portraits Of all
the previous judges of the Supreme Court
including Justice Field himself
The judge S now at work upon another
biography, a supplement- to the one pub
lished few years ago. There is much in
! teresting Calf ornia material in these
mem oirs, including details o. his cele-
brated "assassina ationv His library IS
up one flight Of stairs, for he sacrifices his
comfort a little in order TO be within calling

adjoining room that would not be allowed

callers 10 his library with one OF his
own works His library motto stares him
always in the face.

THE MERRY CHIEF JUSTICE.
Chief Justice Fuller in his library is
the only one or the great judges who does
not seem at an oppressed with the grav-
4 ity Of his position. He is at his library

house is concerned.
1t was much against the city-lOYing Tom
Reeds wishes that summer home was
bought at Grand Beach; but now that he is
installed in it, he seems quite to like it.
A caller caught snap shot of him the other
day, and the picture showed him reading a
book upon a very cozy front porch, that
was rallied in after old New England fash

morning glories that sprang from the side
Of the porch. AT the top the glories min

an expensive villa, but it is not a beautiful
one. 1t has been added TO and improved"

sitting IN a steamer chair in the middle OF
this porch could easily reach all sides of it.

In one of the natural crannies formed by

up the columns. Here Mckinley writes

Judge Harlan has peculiar method OF
working He uses two very large fiat
topped desks. One is for reading and writ
ing and the other is for correcting and pre-
serving completed work. When the Judge
has a paper finished be knows 1t is on tho
desk by the door; when he is working upon
a paper he knows 1t Willie upOuthefard
The habit OF years has made him perfect in
this. He works late at night, and does not

Judge Browns library is the most ''indi-

claim may be made for his whole house.
The Judge was a Detroit millionaire, and

posted upon matters of the world than a
man TO whom the strife Of life is entirely
a thing of the past would be expected to be.
He has the face Of the ''rosy-posy lad"
OF Irish melody and his voice is young and
CHEEKY. His eight children visit him
often, and his grandchildren are never de
barred from his library. His desk sets in
the middle of the floor, and the children
stand on opposite sides of the room and
play ball over his head, while a frisky
terrier snaps at the toes of the Chief JUS
tice of the United States. Judge Fuller
is about sixty-three years old, and he feels
as If he had just twenty-one more years
upon the bench, for he expects TO be as old
as Gladstone and as lively.
Chief Justice White, as the baby of the
Supreme Court, fully carries out the i'm
preston OF youth. He is ruddy of hair
and complexion and plump of cheek and
stomach. He does not weigh himself
down with cares of state, and his library
at home is nothing more than a plain
long table with his faYOrite books upon
it. One end is kept sacred to papers that
he must examine overnight He sits in
a very uncomfortable pine chair, which
has neither spring back or cushion to ease
it. Hisdouble windows give q pretty aspect
TO the room and his dnity curtain suggest
a good landlady. His desk might be that of
, a plain clerk, and his home library is
limited one, compared with the $4,000

JUDGE HARLAN's ICE PALACE.
The library in Judge HarIan's house is
an ideal one for a judge. The Harlan house

perfectly. When all washington is swell

LAMONT'S PORTAL.
Dauiel Lamont is such a very interest
ing parsonage from his peculiar and rap
id rise from nothing to something that
his home aud his private life are looked
at Curiously by friend and foe alike. He
is one day out West inspecting war ap-
pliances, another day in the South looking
at coast forts, aud next day he has spent
an hour at Gray Gables, and is slipping
away, so you read, TO his Sorrento home.
This Sorrento ranch, for it is such in
spite Of its beautiful interior, is the most
peculiar OF all the summer houses along
the Maine coast 1t is likewise the coolest.
The plans were draw by Mrs. Lamont, and
the execution was carried out under her
careful eye. The Lamonts have an an
cestral country house in the northern part
af New York State, but the Secretary of
