Oscar Hammerstein is very happy
over the result of his suit against the
New York Life Insurance company for
the value of personal property in the
old Olympia when it was taken from
him. He gets $4,000, and has already

ceedings aside. Several eminent law

claim is valid enough to so to the su-

The prospect for coursing in Butte the

There is no reason that it cannot be
placed on as high a plane here as it

Duke of Kent, had no objection to dis
senters and. in fact, cultivated inti-
mate relations with well known Con-
gregationalist minister. DR.. Stoughton,
whom he knew both at Windsor and
Kensington. The doctor lent the em-
barrassed duke some money, but re-
fused many invitations to dine at Ken

father pressed him for his reason, and
the doctor explained that he would not
accept because he could not entertain
in return.

Birds and Their Baths.

Naturalists tell us that in making
their toilets some birds use water only,
some water and dust, while other pre-
fer dust and no water. Birds are not
only nice in the choice of bath water,
but also very particular about the
quality Of their toilet dust.
Wild ducks, though feeding by salt
water, prefer to battle in fresh water
pools, and will fly long distances in
land to running brooks and ponds,
where they preen and dress their
feathers in the early hours of the
morning. Sparrows bathe often, both
in water and in dust. They are not so
particular about the quality Of water
as about the quality Of the dust. The
city sparrow must take water bath
where he can get it. Road dust, the
driest and finest possible. suits him
best. Partridges prefer dry loan.
They like to scratch out the soil from
under the grass and fill their feathers
with cool earth.
Most birds are fond of ashes. Take
a walk some early morning across a
field where bonfres have burned and
see the numbers of winged creatures
that rise suddenly from the ash heaps.
