BOY KITE FLYERS KILLED.
Walk on a Roof While Watching
Their Aerial Toys

Htfr AcFtai Ioys
New York, July 24.-Two little boys
whose misfortune it was to be born where
kites are flown from house tops instead Of
green fields met death yesterday while en-
joying the pastime. They were Thomas j.
Dempster, thirteen years old, of No. Bel
West Thirty-sixth Street, and John Coster,
twelve years, of No. 7es Columbus Avenue
Two weeks ago the Dempster boy finisheA
school and went to work as an apprentice
at the PLUMBERS trade. Saturday night h.
emptisd into his mothers apron 81, his first
earnings. and his father brought from "a
hiding place a mammoth kite brilliant with
red and gilt and queer Japanese figures.
You can fly it on week days from the
street, but not from the roof" said his
mother, when the boy asked permission TO
fly the kite yesterday.
The temptation was too strong and the
boy slipped out Of tn, house and went tc
that of playmate Charles Smith, who liy-
ed at No. 3s1 Columbus Avenue. The two
boys crawled to the roof and sent up the
kite. The Dempster boy ran with the kite,
keeping his eye on it. When he came to
the coping he trippsd and dashed haadlong
into the areaway to the pavement, five
stories below. Mrs. Smith. through Win
dow in the araaway, saw the falling bod,
of the boy, and, thinking ii was her son,

Kate Kirk, overcome with fright at the
sight of Mrs. Smith lying unconscious fen
beside her., and a bcarder affected with
heart disease was SO overcome that he was
unable TO move for assistance.

PURSUIT OF A SILLY OSTRICH.
An Exciting Sunday Afternoon Chase
In Chicago Park.

Chicago, July 24.-For fifty minutes yes
terday Lincoln Park became Sahara, and
had a genuine ostrich hunt. The conclu-
sion of the exciting chase found the os-
trich transformed from land bird into a
waterfowl and disclosed Animal Keeper
De Vry backed up against a tree giving
reasons that made him believe the ostrich
had contemplated suicide when it effected
its escape from the zoo at sunrise. Fore
most among the reasons advanced for the
suicide theory was the fact that the bird
had ended the chase that baffled its pursu-
ers by taking flying leap from the high
bridge across the lagoon into the i,iacid
waters where so many unhappy creatures
have found surcease of sorrow True
there were many who claimed that the os-
trich was driven to make the jump by the
band of implacab,e hunters which De Vry
had headed out of the reeesses of the zoo.
But De Vry had some very good 1ca-
sons for the belief that was in him. No, :"
he said, with rlournful emphasis. 'it was
clearly an attempt at suicide, and there
was nothing of must or chance about it.
You see. this poor birds husband died
some four months ago while the two were
in transit to our zoo here l have always
noticed that this bird seemed to be suf-
fering from melancholia some kind of
aiiEent of purely mental origin. Now its
strange act in leaping from the Suicide
Bridge has certainly confirmed my worst
suspicious, though it is altogether puzzle
to explain how the ostrich's somewhat
sluggish instincts were so quick TO discover
the advantages which despondent humanity
has perceived in yonder high struc-
.yyra
