Every spring and fall large numbers of birds are killed by the Washington monument. The city of Washington seems to be directly in the route taken by many of the migratory birds in the flight between the North and the South, and twice a year thousands of feathered songsters meet their death by flying against the tall marble shaft in the night Just now the fall slaugh- ter is at it's height, and every morning many birds are to be seen about the base of the monument. The dogs and cats of that part of the city have learned that the base of the monument is good place to get an early meal in the morning without trouble, and many of them are regularly on hand. Most of the birds killed are yellow and black throated Warblers and small thrushes.

The announcement OF the closing of
the Philadelphia smelter at Pueblo on
account of a shortage of ore comes as
great surprise to the residents of the
Arkansas valley. This snelter is one
of the largest plants owned by the
trust and just what their idea is for
closing the plant can only be surmised
The shortage of ore cry is all bosh. 1t
looks like the smelter trust is doing
all in its power to close all the low
grade mines in the country and the
longer mine owners fail to realize this
and take action to prevent it, just so
long will every mine suffer at the
hands of this gigantic octopus.

THE WATER SUPPLY.

Much credit must be given the city

the water question TO the best advan-

of the proposition with as much in

private enterprise i'll which each was
vitally interested. And in the opinion
of the aldermen, and the majority of
the people coincide, the best solution
to the problem is the building of a
cistern and the installation of pump
ing station with. which to fill the
mains. This is bcing done as expedi-
tiously as is consistent with good
workmanship, and in short time, 8

need of further anxiety as to the water

Preparing to Build Big Battleship


New York, Aug. l3-Active pre-
parations already are under way at the
New York navy yard for the construc-
tion of the new l6, O0o-ton battleship
Connecticut. Immense piles are being
driven to form the foundation for the
cradle on which the vessel will be
built. The officers IN charge ap-
preciate the fact that much depends
upon their efforts, for upon the speed
and effectiveness shown in the CON
struction of the new man o'war depend
in a great measure the prospects of the
establishment of a government ship
building plant at the yard Every
effort will be made by those concerned
in the direction of the construction of
the battleship, to keep the manufac-
turers of armor and machinery strictly
to their contract time. If it can be
proved that battleships may be built
AS quickly and as we'll at the navy
yard as at private shipyards the facili-
ties for shipbuilding will, it is hoped
be much increased and made per-
manent.

Though the July magazines contain
but few articles relating to the corona
tion and its customs, doubtless the
August numbers will have to be very
much revised and matter substituted
for the many descriptive articles of
the affair scheduled for that month
and September. The question arises
in regard to special correspondents as
to whether they will be paid more than
their expenses and for the time con-
sumed in going and coming. AS many
magazines are planned months ahead,
the postponement of England's great
event is not only upsetting but will en-
tail heavy expense upon all classes of
book trade, and especially periodicals.
In spite of it, however, Richard Hard
ing Davis will probably be able to
make even the events of the anxious
days of last week interesting to his
nIrny readers. Frank Leslie's Monthly

zines which gives much space to the

to shun the newspaper office, remark

stated that she drew her picture from

was then child, barely twelve years Of
age: this theory does not seem tenable.~
It Is much more likely to believe that

facts correspond with the fiction must

1t is told of Winston Churchill, the
writer of 1.-The Crisis" that while in
England recently he was frequently
mistaken for his English namesake.
While over there he was interviewed
in regard to the friendship of Eng
land for his own country, and is re-
ported to have said that friendship
among nations works out just as 1t
does in business. You meet the same
persons day after day and finally real
ize they are your best friends, all of
which does not seem in the least
apropos of English and American
cordiality. Mr.. Churchill is thinking
of writing a series of five American
historical novels, of which Richard
CarveP' and THE Crisis" would make
two, as he believes this country con-
tains endless good unworked material
for fictional purposes.

last book, "Hohenzollern," to the Ger
man emperor, and has just received

Washington the thanks Of his majesty
for the volume. The story is full of
adventure, and dramatic not without
intention; indeed, it is by no means
uncertain that the dramatic rights
were not sold before it appeared.
