A BOYS ENTERPRISE.
Young Philadelphian Who owns and
Manages the Largest Pheas-
antry in the West.

Wallace Evans, OF Philadelphia, a
slender 13-year-old lad in knickerbock-
ers, owns the largest pleasantly in the
west, selling 800 eggs in season, and
Matching nearly as many birds, says
the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Such an enterprise conducted by
boy is generally makeshift, but the
Evans pleasantly is perfect in con-
struction, having about IT'S by 200 feet
under wire, with the latest improved
hatcher and houses. 1t is divided into
a network of special yards, every gate
closing and locking automatically, so
there il no danger of the birds escap-
ing.
The flock of gold pheasants isea gor-
geous sight with their brilliant yellow
heads, capes of orange and blue, lined
with vivid green, scarlet bodices, bur-
nished wings and long, graceful tails,
dotted with black. They are fad
among fanciers, and their price is in
creasing, as they now bring $50 pair.
The beautifully plumaged hen lays
30 eggs in a season, which are worth
$40 a dozen. Wallace has large num-
Der of English pheasants, furnishing
fine contrast to the golden beauties.
They lay from so to rs eggs, which are
readily sold for IS a setting.
His covey of quail would make the
hunters heart leap as they fly to cover
with whir of wings and warning
cries. The old birds were imported
from Tennessee, where thousands of
the luckless birds follow trail of
grain leading straight into a wire-iU
closed corral, and are there shipped "
breeders.
In the center of each yard is neatly
stacked pile of bruch and straw, which
affords native retreat for all the birds.
The English pheasantryare very hardy,
and frolic in the snow and ice like chill
dren, but the golden hover in their
houses in bitter cold weather.
Taken as whole, the pleasantly re-
fleets unbounded credit on it's boyish
proprietor, who, in addition to having
the sole care of it, is finishing the
cighth-grade course in the public
school.

THE CROWD SLIPPED.
And Dropped Right Into the Trap the
Smooth Corn Salve FakeF
Had Made.

The portly man with the bulging
overcoat pockets began to lose his cen
ter of gravity gradually at the corner
of Fifteenth street and New York ave-
nue.. says the Washington Post. One
foot slipped from beneath him on the
icy pavement, and by the time he had
reestablished connections with the
bricks with that one the other shot out
from under him. Then they both be-
gan to execute quick and dsvilish
shuttle dance. The mans arms flew
out. and he seemed to be making wild
but futile effort to pull slices out of the
nippy atmosphere. Then he simply
sat right down, without any super
tiuous ceremony Or hubbub whatso-
ever. OF course all the men within
radius of so feet adjusted their hands
to. their sides and ha-ha ed joyously.
There is only one thing on earth that
tickles mans fellowmen more than
to see him drop kerhop 10 an icy pave
ment-it tickles 'em more if he happens
to have bottle of bug juice in his rear
pocket.
This portly man with the bulging
overcoat pockets looked around him in
a dazed sort of way, as if he were en-
deavoring to study the thing out.
Meanwhile the dozen or Is men who
were waiting for cars just lay back and
hollered. The portly man made no eff
fort to rise, and the longer he sat there,
looking mystifed, the funnier it seemed
to the merry gang around. Finally
they began to close in on him.

asked one of them, laughing uproari-
ously at his own humOr.

LONG DISTANCE PHONES
periments with = View to In
creasing Their Efficiency.

We are OH the eve of some revolution
ary developments in long distance tele-
phones which will surprise the COM
mercial world when they are inaugu-
rated. Some of the brightest electri-
clans are making researches into the
possibilities of telepboning, and while
they have not yet accomplished results
they are following up clews which in
volve great possibilities.
1t is only now that the true functions
of the long electrical waves are being
studied. Prof. Pupin is one of the lead
ers in this new field of investigation
and he says that long-distance tele-
phoning can be vastly improved as we'll
as long-distance transmission of power.
The subject is rather technical for
the average reader, but reduced as near
to common speech as possible, the OBJ
jecti,e point of these investigators is
to prevent the attenuation or thinning
out or running into nothing of the vi
brations created by speaking into the
telephone.
This attenuation can be diminished
in certain ways. There is wave mo-
tion in wires which ranges from $50 to
$500 vibrations per second. In tele-
phone line as long as that from New
York to Chicago there are from five
to seven wave lengths of this higher
vibration period included in the length
of the circuit.
The attenuation of the telephone
force determines the limit over which
conversation is possible. This limit
is not due to the attenuation of the
fundamental vibrations which are all
sufficient for longer distances but to
the suppression of the faster harmonics
above referred to which give quality
to the voice, but which are more rap
idly damped out by the circuit.
If this damping out can be arrested
the fundamental vibrations can go far
ther. Wave lengths are inversely pro-
portionally to the square root of the
product of the capacity and inductants
of a circuit under given conditions Of
frequency. This is the basic fact.
There are nodes and loops which deter
mine the loudness of the telephone.
What the researchers in this interest
ing field are after is to discover some
method of installing lines that will pre-
vent the reformation of waves and loss
of fenergy.-Philadelphia Press.
