EAGLES AND THEIR PREY.
A Giant Bird Whose Race Has Hap
piIy BECOME Extinct

A Giant Bird Whose Race Has Hap
PLY Become Extinct.
There is at the present moment at
the Natural History museum a model
of the skull of an eagle so gigantic that
the imagination can scarcely fit it into
the life of this planet at all.
The whole head is larger than that of
an OK, and the beak resembles a pair
of hydraulic shears. Unlike most of
the giant beasts, this eagle, which in
habited Patagonia, appears from its
remains to have differed little from
the existing species. Its size alone
distinguishes it. The quilts of the
feathers which bore this awful raptor
through the air must have been as
thick as a walking stick and the webs
as wide as car blades. 1t would have
killed and torn to pieces creatures as
large as a bison and whirled up into
the sky and dropped into the rocks
the gigantic carapaced animals of
prehistoric Patagonia as easily as a
modern eagle of California does the
land tortoise on which it feeds.
Even today there are few carnivo-
rous animals, whether birds or beasts,
which have so wide range of prey
as the eagles. Like the HINGED drag
ons of old story, they can ravage
earth, air and sea and feed promiscu-
ously on the denizens of all three ele-
ments. From serpents on the burning
desert to seals on the everlasting ice,
from monkeys in the tropical forests
to marmots on the Alpine slopes, from
dead sheep on highland hills to pea
cocks in the Indian jUngles, no form of
fish, flesh or fowl comes amiss to them,
and the young eagle driven by the in
exorable law of his race from the home
where he was reared, finds free
breakfast table wherever he flies

CHIMNEY FIRES.
why salt Is Commonly Used to Put
Them Out.

/ 1nGm out
In accounts Of chimney fires it is
common to read that the fire was ex-
tinguished by throwing salt down the
chimney. Salt is used because there
| is liberated from it when it comes into
contact with the fire gas that within
an inclosed space like a chimney is
very effective in extinguishing fire.
The primary purpose in throwing salt
or anything else down burning chin
ney is to dislodge the burning SCOT,
chimney fires being caused by the igni-
ton of the SCOT clinging to the inside
of the chimney. Salt is used for this
/ purpose not alone because of it's pecul-
| lar effectiveness, but also because it is
something available for the purpose
that can commonly be found at hand
in house. 1t is thrown down the
chimney in such a manner that it will
rattle down the sides and by its weight
knock down the SCOT and sparks cling
ing to the chimney's insides.
A bucket of sand has been put to the
same use with good effect. and some
times a scuttle Of coal has been poured

about from side to side as it dropped
and so doing its work effectively.
| Sometimes brick is taken from the
chimney itself and tied to a clothes
line, is hauled up and down the Chin
ney, with the same result At the
hearth below or at the bottom of the
chimney wherever the sparks may fall
there is stationed man with pail of
water to put out whatever ire may
drop. Water is not played on a chin
ney fire from hose because it is not
necessary, and the water would do
more damage than the fire.
The damage caused by a fire in
chimney when it is confined there is
nothing or next to nothing. Left alone,
however, chimney fire might work it's
way into building and so prove de-
structive, and therefore slight as they
may be in themselves or as they might
be in their consequences chimney fires
are always put out and commonly in
the manner described. Exchange.

CITY WILL NCTSTOP PUMPING
REVIVAL OF PROJECT TO GET WATER
TEMPORARILY FROM SMALL
COMPANIES

In spite of the Forbell decision, which gives dam
ages against the city for the water which is taken
from the land surrounding the Spring Creek pump
ing station OF the Brooklyn water supply. that
station will not be shut down for the present.
Deputy Water Commissioner Modett said yesterday
that he did not think the Forbell decision would
necessarily compel the shutting down Of water
stations along the watershed Mr.. Moffett will have
a conference with Commissioner Dalton and the
Chief Engineer in Manhattan to-day.
Borough President Edward NJ. Grout yesterday
received a communication from number of real
estate men N which they demanded that the au-
thorites Immediately consider the advisability Of
securing more water by purchasing 1t from private
companies in or near Brooklyn They declare that
the situation IS serious that tenants threat
ening to leave their houses and apartments.
President Grout. in forwarding the letter Com
missioner Dalton. refers to previous communica-
tons. in which he urged Mr.. Dalton to consider
the advisability of securing temporary relief by
getting additional water from the Queens County
and Flatbush water companies. He adds:
Something must be done prevent the depopu-
lation Of Brooklyn which will follow the pres
ent condition of the water service. Not only
the financial interests OF the owners OF property
and mortgages upon property affected by this
situation, but the health OF the community must
soon show the result of empty traps, through which
sewer gas will enter our dwellings,.
