Birds as Insectictdes.

Birds are natures great check on the
excess of insects, and keep the balance
between plants and insect life. Ten
thousand caterpillars, 1t has been esti-
mated, could destroy every blade of
grass on an acre Of cultivated ground.
In thirty days from the time it is
Matched, an ordinary caterpillar in
creases 10000 times in bulk, and the
food it lives and grows on is vegetable.
The insect population Of a single
cherry tree infested with aphides was
calculated by a prominent entomologist
ut no less than 100000. The bird
population Of cultivated country dis
tricts has been estimated from 700 to
1000, per square mile. This is small
compared with the number of insects,
yet as each bird consume hundreds of
insects every day, the latter are pre-
cented from becoming the scourge
they would be but for their ~feathered
enemies.

Diamonds in Sand.

An explorer IN the mountains Of
Whites Hook, Natal, is said to have
discovered n layer of sand inclosing
small diamonds at the edge of a lake
that occupies the crater of an extinct
volcano. 1t is not know whether these
diamonds We're there as the result of
washing operations carried OH by the
natives or whether the discovery cor
responds to an actual diamond mine.
The hills of Witzes Hook are not sit
uated in regions known to be diamond
bearing. The presence of the gems in
the crater of a volcano may throw
some light on their formation in nature.

Popularity Of stoves on Vessels.

Stoves and ranges used ut sea have
two peculiarities. One is that the doors
are made to turn down and not to
swing, and have f%astenings to hold
them securely when they are shut, SO
that they can't possibly fly open. The
other popularity is in the rack on top.
1t is elevated four or five inches, and
runs around the edge of the stove to
keep the pots and kettles from sliding
off. Some stoves and ranges used afioat
are also provided with cross rods which
III from the fixed rod at the back of
the stove to the rod in front, across the
top Of the pots and kettles and hold
them down and keep them from shift
ing. They r used in very heavy
weather, or when the ship is rolling.
For some reason these cross rods are
more used on British than they are on
American ships. When a vessels is in
port the front rail of the rack is usually
taken out, and then the cook has as
easy access to the top of the stove as
he would have with a stove ashore

Reflections of a sn,n.,.r

Va q SplIlStCEs
A man whom q dog will trust is new

At 20 men love a woman; at 30, wom-

People who consider love a dream

The cuckoo is as likely to steal its

not take from the point of the following
pun, quoted from ."Short Stories:"

The closing incident over the effects
of Joseph Sobeski. the young Polander,
who died at the Lackawanna hospital
ten days ago, occurred at Alderman
Donovans court last night. 1t will be
remembered that death had no more
than set in before a scramble arose for
$751; which constituted the total sur1
of Sobeski's worldly possessions. The
money was found in his clothes after
his removal from the hospital.
Frank Gratchentcys, his boarding
boss, took charge of the money and
engaged Frank Bonin, Polish under
taker, to conduct the funeral Bolas-
aus Weinzshowski, a cousin of the de-
ceased and his only relative in this
country, hired Undertaken Jordon fer
the job. When the cousin and his
undertaken went to claim the body it
was refused. Matters got so serious
that Mounted officer Dgec was called
to the scene of the funeral. Under
taker Jordan was given the right of
way, and the funeral services were
held in Father Dambinski's church.
The proceedings in the alderman s
office last night was brought by the
cousin of the dead man against the
boarding boss. He charged him with
having received money from the es-
tate with intent to defraud. The de-
fendant gave an account of the money
he took from the clothes of his boarder.
He also produced an order given him
authorizing him to pay all bills The
defendant charged SO a day for two
days for the loss of work, and $40 for
the two days the remains were at his
house. He was discharged.
