Held to the Grand Jury.

P. D. Tobin, of 1914 Troost avenue, was
tried before Justice Walls yesterday and
bound over to the grand jury on the charge

Montague hotel, sold Tobin some furniture
and took in payment a note on forty acres

Frye telegraphed to the recorder of that
county and found that Tobin owned only
ten acres, instead of forty, and swore out
a warrant for his arrest. Tobin was ar

BIRDS AND DISEASE.

an Authority Who Thinks Birds Inoapa-
BILE Of Carrying Contsgion.
Persons interested in birds have re-
Gently been debating the question
whether these creatures are capable OF
contracting diseases from human beings
or of transmitting disease to human be-
ings. Expert opinion seems to be di-
yided. On the one hand DR.. X. Rulf,
director of Gefierderte Welt, in recent
letter to the president Of the Acclima-
ton society, asserts that the transmits
sion Of any disease from bird to o
man and vice versa is absolutely impos-
sible. Says DR.. Ruff:
"For more than 80 years I have been
occupied in keeping, observing and
raising exotic birds Of plumage; conse-
auently have had occasion to deal with
them when. ill. Every bird that has died
has been examined, and have thus dis
sected during about 30 years several
hundred parakeets. I have always kept
these birds during their illness, some
times for a considerable period. in my
apartment, which is somewhat restrict
ed in size, being composed OF only six
rooms for four grown persons and four
children. During all this period have
not had single case Of sickness in my
family, although the birds have had all
possible kinds of maladies. am also
confirmed in my belief by the fact that
/ have allowed no opportunity to pass
of asking for information on the subject
from the principal dealers in birds at
Hamburg, Cologne, London, Liverpool,
Antwerp, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Mar
settles and Bordeaux whenever they had
sick birds in considerable numbers. In
no case was I informed that any one,
either q member of the family or an en-
ployee, had been attacked in the house OF
one Of these merchants, and obtained
the same information from the directors
of the great geological gardens at Paris
and London. No contagion-and ! can
not insist too strongly ON this point
could ever be established.
These, however, are all negative facts
and would fail to stand against even
one authenticated case of the transmits
sion of disease to or from pet birds.
Such cases, it is believed, have been
proved to exist by DR.. Laboulbene, who
communicates an account Of his investi-
cations to the bulletin Of the Acclima-
ton society.

These Scaly Filters Are Plentiful In Tropis
Deep Waters
The flying fish loves deep water and
is found throughout the length and
breadth of tropical seas. He is fond Of
feeding near the gulf weed Of the Sar-
gasso and deposits his stripgy, glutinous
spawn on its yellow branches Vessels
bound from New York to the Caribbee
islands, upon reaching the "horse lati-
tudes," sometimes encounter vast guam
titles of drifting weed, strung out into
long ribbonlike patches about an eighth
Of a mile apart. Among the golden
weed, with its delicate leaves and glob-
ular seeds, exists curious family Of
cuttlefish, crabs, mollusks and small
fishes. Upon these the flying fish preys,
and they in turn devour its spawn
Every plunge of the steamer as she
plows through the blue tropical waters
frightens dozens of flying fish into the
air, where they scatter in all directions,
with the sunlight glistening on their
gauzy wings
The flying fish Of the Atlantic attains
length Of nearly one foot and breadth
between wing tips of II inches. He
has round, compact body, about about
one inch in diameter near the pectoral
fins or wings. There is also an auxil-
larry pair Of ventral fins or wings, not
nearly SO large as the pectoral pair.
The wings are formed by thin. trans
parent membrane stretched over deli
cate bony framework and are either,
black, white or notified with both.
The upper half of the entire fish is a
metallic blue in color, while the lower
portion is nacreous white. Black,
prominent eyes; small, prehensile
mouth; forked tail, dorsal and anal fins,
complete the picture of one Of the most
interesting little fishes in all natures
vast aquarium.
In fight he darts from the water to q
height Of 20 feet and goes scudding
away before the wind. beating the air
rapidly with both wings and tail He
sails straight away for 1000 feet or
even more. occasionally touching the
crest Of wave. and seeming to gain Q
new impetus BY the contact -Torest
and Stream.
