The birds are not allowed to pick up
their food in the natural manner, but
have It pumped or crammed into their
crops by a simple machine, consisting
of a large funnel, into which the food
is placed, falling into a cylinder, from
which il is pumped by piston worked
by treadle through flexible tube
some seven inches long direct into the
fowls crop. The birds are fed this way
twice day. The dexterity with which
hundreds of protesting birds are thus
fed is remarkable.

Opening the Comatuck.


The committee Of Superintendent
OF the Comstock mines have ma le a
strong report Recommending the IN
watering Of that bonanza below the
level of'the Sntrotnnnel The report
caused Hurry in the price Of Com
stock shares ON the San Francisco
boards.
The report conclu les as toll,ws:
" With modern pumping az pliances
placed along the lode SO us to pump
the greatest qurntlty Of water at the
least possible cost, we feel safe in say
ing that all of the water that was an.
countered in the lower Levels can be
handled for very much less than the
former cost, and at the same time pro-
wiling for pumping much larger
quantities of water than WAS found in
all OF the deeper workings. Such
machinery would enable thorough
exploration of all Of the lower und
still deeper levels to be made in safety,
while the old system allowed only
partial prospecting, and IN some cases
the levels were barely opened when
the work was suspended.
In conclusion we wish to state that
in the consideration of the fact that it
has been tiaured that modern pump
ing Plant can be operated ON the
lowest levels OF the Comstock lode
and pump the water to the Sutro tun-
mel fer one-twelfth of the cost of
pumping by the old syst IN, and as
sunIing that such calculations can he
verified, and then considering the fav-
orable prospects that were Gnaoun-
! tered, together with the great area of
UNEMPLOYED ground on the lower
levels, we do not hesitate to RECON-
mend the expenditure OF the money
necessary to install and ope ate a
complete modern. pumping plant for

of Paralysis.
Washington. oct. 14.-Mrs. Sherman,
wife Of former Secretary of State John
Sherman, suffered a stroke of paralysis
home in very critical condition. As
has been her custom for many years
Mrs. Sherman rose early yesterday
morning. A few minutes afterwards,
while unattended in the bath ROOM
she was stricken with paralysis and
fell to the floor unconscious. Mr.. Sher-
man, who was in an adjoining apart
ment heard her fall, and Immediately
summoned the servants. DIR. w. w.
Johnston and DR.. Frank Hyatt re-
sponded to the call for physicians and
have remained with Mrs. Sherman
most of the time since. The stroke
has affected her entire right side, and
even in brief periods of consciousness
she is unable to speak. She RECEIVERS
consciousness at times but has not
spoken a word since she was stricken.
AT one time last night she evidently
recognized Mr.. Sherman, who had been
constantly at her bedside during the
day. Mrs. Sherman's health always
had been exceptionally good, and while
she is well advanced i'm years, her
physicians hold out the hope that she
may recover from the present attack,
although they realize that the chance
Is small.
