Birds AS Surgeons.

Some interesting observations made
by M. Fatio on the sur.s cal treatment
of wounds by birds were recently
brought before the Physical society OF
Geneva. In these it was established
that the snipe had often been observed
in repairing damages With its beaz
and feathers it makes very creditable
dressing and has even been known to
secure broken limb by means of stout
hgature On one occasion M. Fatio
killed a snipe which had on its chest
large dressing composed OF down from
other part; IF the body and securely
fixed to the body by coagulated blood.
Twice he had snipe with interwoven
feathers strapped on to the site of a
fracture of one or other limb The most
interesting example was that Of snipe
both of whose legs he had unfortunately
broken by misdirected shot. He only
recovered it on the following day, when
he found that the wounded bird had
contrived to apply dressings and sort
of splirt to both limbs. In carrying out
this operation some feathers had become
entangled round the beak, and not be-
ing able to use its claws to get rid of
them the poor creature was almost dead
from hunger when found. - Public

WHERE THE JOKE CAME I'M.
Tho Boys Hauled tho Professor Back,
Much to Their Chagrin

The Boys Hauled tho Professor Racl.
Much to Their Chagrin.
A very good story is told of the head
of college who was tho possessor of a
very clumsy, old fashioned vehicle to
which he was very partial and which
he constantly used in riding through tho
streets of the town, to the disgust of
most of the Btudents.
A plan was formed among some of
the boys that on certain night they
would remove this offensive vehicle
from the coachhouse to wood about
half mile from the college. Their in
tention was to run tho carriage ints .he
thickest of the woods und underhrush
and leave it there

learned or suspected their intention.
Accordingly, in the. evening, he
quietly went ont to the coachhouse,
and, well wrapped up, csouched in q
corner of the carriage and waited.
Soon the boys came. very stealthily,
and, without looking into the vehicle,
began their operations very quietly and
in whispers, and with many a Hush"
and "Take care" and Look out, " they
succeeded in getting it out of the house
and yard and into the road
There they were all right but they
! were puzzled to find the thing so heavy
to haul, and amid grumhiings and paff-
ings and paintings, varied occasionally
with strong expression of disgust, they
succeeded in reaching the woods, tho
principal listening to their complaints
and rather enjoying the situation
Having with some difficulty backed
the carriage into the brush, they began
to congratulate each other on the sue
cess of their maneuver. The old GENTLE
man, letting down the window, to their
utter surprise and alarm. very quietly
said:

me back very carefully, If you please. ;"

BIG LIST OF VOTERS EXAMINED.
Number OF Them We're Closely Ques-
toned by ATTORNEYS.

A large list Of voters from the Fifth
district of the First ward and the First
district of the Second ward of this
city was examined yesterday in the
Langstaff- Kelly contest.
The examination of witnesses was
conducted without anything out of
the ordinary. A disagreement occur
red between Commissioners Lewis and
Duggan on a question and it will be
certified to court this morning for a
ruling.
The question was asked of a witness
named William Williams whether or
not he was registered. 1t was object
ed to by the attorneys for the respon-
dent and the objection was sustained
by Mr.. Duggan on the ground that
the registry list of the district was the
best evidence. Mr.. Lewis was in favor
of permitting the question to be asked
of witnesses whose names We're nearly
alike, so that they could be properly
identified.

HAWKS BUNCOED.
Says He Was Induced to Tender His
Resiguation by False Pretenses.
His Successor Named.

Patrolman John Hawks, of the police
department. was by order of Mayor
Bailey removed from his beat on Penn
avenue yesterday and informed that
his resignation, submitted several
weeks ago and to take effect July /,
would be enforced.
Hawks removal by Mayor Bailey
some time ago was secured by Select
Councilman Wade NJ. Finn. Hawks
friends combatted the removal with
such vigor in councils that it's i'm
mediate effect was not insisted upon.
According to Hawks, there followed a
conference in which he, his father,
Finn and the mayor participated, the
result being an agreement that if
Hawks presented his resignation, to
take effect July l, his retirement would
not be insisted upon. ISe was given
to understand, he says. that the resig-
nation would be pigeon-holed and not
brought to light.
With this understanding Hawks con-
tinued his regular patrol turns and
yesterday at noon resumed what had
been his recent day beat on Penn ave-
nue. At o'clock Mayor Bailey di-
ltCltu ollittl IytT "
Hawks that he was no longer a police
patrolman and to relinquish his beat
and deliver his equipments at police
headquarters. Hawks complied with
the request. Later he made no con-
cealment of his purpose to make fur
fly in high places for what he alleges
was bunco game in inducing him to
resign.
Mayor Bailey and some of those near
to him must have known that the re-
suit was to be the patrolman's retire
ment, for several persons have been
recommended and considered for the
place he leaves vacant. The muss yes
terday put his honor in no condition
of body or mind to haggle long over
an appointee. He shut off all lobby
ing by selecting Richard Thomas, a
special officer, for the place. He will
be the man if his honor does not ex-
ercise his prerogative of changing his
mind.

The presence in the city yesterday
of Major Simon b. Cameron, of the
Third brigade of the Pennsylvania Ma
tional Guard, gave rise to the report
that he was here to conduct the mus
tering in of the proposed reorganized
Thirteenth regiment. His visit was n

Major Cameron will be here Tuesday.
as has been announced, to do the mus
tering. He will then be accompanied
by DR.. George Halberstadt, major and
surgeon of General Gobin's old staff.
Major Cameron came here from
Wilkes Barre and had lunch with
Major Millar at the Hotel Jermyn. He
was in the city for only a few hours.
From his visit it developed that Major
Millar, Major Cameron, Major Halber-
stadt and the other members of Cen
eral Gobin's old staff would continue
to serve as brigade staff officers at
least until General Gobin's successor
is appointed. Most of them, If not all,
will likely be re-appointed
Major Millar, however, will resign as
brigade Inspector He may accept the
captaincy of Company b, which would
give him better assurance of being ac-
cepted as a commissioned officer in the
event of a third call.
The reorganized Thirteenth will
consist of eight companies. four from
Scranton and one each from Homes
