Colonel Michael c.. Murphy, who is
seriously talked of for the executive
head of the police department under
the new act, which provides for a sim
gle-headed commission, the commits
sioner to be appointed by the mayor,
and to be subject TO removal by either
the governor or the mayor, is one of
the most remarkable men in this
town. He tells his friends that he is
the only Tammany district leader who
is not a high liver, and the only one
who never attends a Tammany beef
steak dinner, the favorite gastronomic
feast of the Fourteenth street braves.
Eleven years ago, Colonel Murphy,
was afflicted with a structure of the
oesophagus, which finally became so
serious that TO prevent death from
starvation he submitted to the rare
md dangerous operation known to the
surgical profession as gastrotomy. In
other words, a hole was cut through
the abdominal wall into the stomach
SO that food might be conveyed to the
patients stomach by means of silver
tube inserted in the opening, the
natural food passage in the throat be-
being entirely closed.
Modern surgery has achieved its
most signal triumphs in connection

the consumers of tea number 500 ,00O,-
900. The first consignment sent to Eu-
rope by the Dutch East India Com
pany in 1910 sold for 60 shillings a
pound. Pepys says in his diary dur
ing the year 1857: "Home-found my
wife drinking tea, drink which Mr..
Polling, the potticary, tells her is good
for her cold" A few years later a tax
of Is cd (about 81 cents) on every gal
Ion of tea sold at the coffee houses
was laid in England. For less than
that sum a drinkable pound can now
be bought in the United States.

o touch it not, dear lad, l pray!
The pretty nest is ours!

So many toilsome hours!
We are such tiny people, too;
Nor hands to work have we;
One little beak our only tool.
AS you may plainly see.
Think of the many sticks and straws,
With patient pains we brought
Think of the many beaks of mud,
With which the nest was wrought,
Within, meanwhile, twas nodded well
And lined, all soft and warm,
With silken fibres, deftly laid,
To guard our babes from harm.
And when the dainty eggs were placed
Within the treasured nest,
What boundless pride and love and

Thrilled each exultant breast!
Then touch it not! Pity dear lad
Another birds distress!
We robins are Gods creatures, too;
Our friends He'll surely bless.

Small Demand for Swords.

There is only one sword factory in
the United States-a Massachusetts
concern-and that one has ample ca
pacity for supplying the domestic de-
mand for swords, even under the slim
ulating conditions of the Cuban and
Philippine wars. The sabre lost its eff
ficiency as a cavalry weapon as far
back as the War of the Rebellion and
the increased range of rifles has made
the sword equally obsolete as an inn
plement of actual combat.

Thrilling Experience of Keeper of An
imaIs in the Zoo.
Despite the oft-repeated warnings of
\ his fellowkeepers who deprecated his
.inordinate ambition to tame every wild
yRnimal in the Philadelphia geological
gardens, Keeper John Lover came to
grief recently in a cage occupied by
six large gray wolves, and he is likely
to lose his left arm as result of his
indiscretlon. When it became neces-
sary to clean the gray wolves cage
the other day, Lover volunteered to do
It. Would he drive the animals back
into the little room behind the cage
and then lock the door? oh, no-why
should he? He had watched those
wolves for long time, and was as
sured that, so far as he was concerned,
they had all the amiability of st. Ber-
nard dogs. Then. watching his oppor-
tunity, and assuring himself that no
one was near to restrain him,he opened
the door and went in. Just as soon
as the animals saw Lover turn to
close the door they pounced upon him.
He turned to defend himself and they
leaped for his neck. Three attacked
him from the front and three from Inc
rear. With nothing but heavy mop
to defend himself. he fought and beat
the animals down with fury born of
desperation. Several times ne felled
them to the floor with well directed
blows, but each time the brutes re-
turned to the fray. Lover was wor-
ried now and almost breathless. He
was bleeding from the face, arms and
hands The fangs of the animals cut
his flesh like knife. On his arms and
even on his cheeks were sprays OF foam
from the animals jaws. They were
leaping for his face and throat. The
noise attracted a dozen keepers, who
ran to Lovers rescue. With long forks

years, after which the growing down
