OIL DOES NOT BATTLE SCENT
ginia Fugitive 10 Trick Blood hounds Fails.

That well-trained bloodhounds can not be baff1ed by the application of kerosene oil to the quarry's feet was shown conclusively when Raymond Farley, a young white man charged with forgery, was run down by blood hounds and arrested by Police Chief Brinkley, says the Suffolk (Va.) cor respondent of the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 Farley is accused of forging the name of w. V. Keller, a local mer- chant, to an order on T. J. Thompson. When Chief Brinkley went to the Far ley home he was told Raymond was having dinner, and the officer, not suspecting strategy, consented to wait. Shortly afterward the officer learned he had skipped. Finding the fugitive's tracks near the suburbs. Brinkley guarded them and sent for Deputy Sheriff Norf1eet's. blood hounds. With no garment from which to take scent the dogs took up the warm trail and followed it by a cir cuitous route to Pleasant Hill, where Farley, when the dogs were perilous- ly near, took refuge in an unoccupied outhouse. There he was arrested Farley acknowledged having poured oil on his feet. He expected to be followed by the dogs. Farley was locked un

FEAT IN SURGERY.

surgeon who in face of Wounu of the heart sewS this wound up, alleI having opened the thorax, only eAer- cjses his profession. We can admire his cIeyerness, praise his skill, put what is much more original-for the moment at Ieast-and much more dar- ing. is the attempt to treat surgically q medical affection of the heart An attelnpt of this kind has been made i'll the last few days by M. Tuffler, who has communicated to the surgeon so- ciety the first case of aneurIsm or the heart treated by ligature of the SACK. The patient was woman, ana the tumor appeared beneath the Skln or the thorax under the collarDone, anu threatened to break at any moment The medical treatment did not even dl- minish the intensity of the pain caus- ed by compression of the nerves, ana to wait longer would have exposed the patient to certain death by hemorrh- age. NJ. Tuffler cut the ..volet thora- ciuue'' and found at once the aneurlsln, the extremely thin walls of which were mingled with the lungs. the rihs. the muscles. etc. With many precautions millimeter by millimeter, he succeeded in isolating and detach- ing the bloody tumor from the neigh boring organs: then, taking it between the two hands. he gently compressed it and made the blood which it contain ed pass little by nftle into the aorta. He had then an empty sack in his hand, which, by an opening, communl- cated with the aorta. A thread was passed around tue neck of the sack and solidly tied. and the communica- fion between the aneurism and tha aorta being thus interrupted, the op- eration was terminated. For ten days the patient was considered definitely cured. but the eleventh day she died from hemorrhage which it was inn possible to check The autopsy dis closed the cause of death to be from gangrene. The empty sack which had been left in place had become gan grenous, and the gangrene having ex tended to the neck, the thread which had been placed at this point fell away and the aorta was opened Everything. however. pointed out, says 1I. Tuffier. that if the sack had been cut away instead of being left in place. the patient would have been entirely cured.-Translated from La Revue by Public Opinion.

spARRow-HAwKs IN THE CITY
Find 1t Easier to Pick Up a Living There Than Roaming Through
 the Country.

Spring is the season of year when the crafty little sparrow hawk, one | of the most interesting members of the bird family, begins preparations for it's summer life in northern eli
 mate. There was time when this "Kill-ee! Kill-ee!' calling bird was as foreign to Chicago life in the con gested districts as wild geese are at
 present, but lately, however, it ap-
 parently learned a few things about cosmopolitan customs by finding out that it is much easier to gain living in the city than in the country, says the Chicago Tribune.
 Sparrow hawks have become rather common in many large cities. In Chi cago they frequent the outlying dis tricts as a rule, but occasionally one may be seen lowering high over the rush and rumble of busy streets, and its odd sounding call of ''Kill-ee! Kill eel" is frequently heard. In many places they have shown great discre- tion in using the steeples of churches and the towers of large buildings for their roosting places. They probably have learned that sparrows-their principal diet-are not so shy in the city as they are in the country and that it is easier to get living in met ropolitan districts. The diet of these birds is quite varied for hawk They do not eat mice and small birds ex- c1usively, but hunt the open stretches in the country for fat insects, espe- cially grasshoppers.
 Their method of hunting an open meadow is beautiful. They never soar high in air as do numbers of the larger hawks, nor do they sweep through the timber and underbrush as do the sharp-shinned hawks. They fly over the field at slight elevation, scan- hing the ground beneath for insects or mice. Occasionally. as they see some movement in the grass, they will poise on fast-beating wings to ascer- tain what moved; then, if nothing is found. they fly forward, only to re- peat the performance again and again
 When this lowering is being donefhe body of the bird takes an upright po- gition and the tail is spread, giving the hawk a peculiar look which is char acteristie. One may recognize at great distance this little bird by this peculiar manner of hunting.
 The moment the weather gives him a chance to obtain his living out in the fields he quits the underbrush and briers and at once begins to eat mice and stray insects which winter has not hidden completely. He is rather odd looking as he takes an insect to his perch to eat. 4 crow will hold the insect with his foot on. the limb and then tear it to pieces if it is too large to be swallowed whole. The sparrow hawk holds the insect to it's mouth much as hor r-7ie~t>+ -~- .o1, m annie.

HUMAN FLY SCALES CHIMNEY.
Mounts High in the Air on Seymour
 Mfg Co.'S Smoke Stack.

The climbing of the older of the two Itallest chimneys of the Seymour Man
 ufacturing. company by human fly
 says the Anosnia Sentinel was watch led with great interest, yesterday.
 This is a square chimney and is one
 hundred and fifty feet high. The top
 of it is getting badly cracked and there 1 is danger of the bricks from it or even
 the whole top of the chimney falling
 to the casting shops below.
 1 The climber first leaned a ladder
 against the bottom of the chimney. Then at tile fifth round, he drove a
 curved spike into the chimney and lashed the ladder to it. Then he climb l ed this ladder and from it's topmost round leaned up and drove in another spike. He did not drive this in more than an inch, though it was to hold the weight of the ladder and of as many as went up. To this he dashed a sec ond ladder, binding the two ladders to- gether. A block of wood was placed between the ladder and the chimney to allow room for climbing. He then climbed to the top of this and twining his leg around repeated the perform ance.
 This he did until he reached the top. When near the top the ladder would sway a foot or so but he worked calm ly on. He made no trouble whatever of the job. He commenced ill the morning and finished shortly after noon. He will lay a plank across the top and begin to take off the upper plates and brick. He will remove the tap fiftann faat ond rah11iId if Several climbed the chimney. An excellent and unobstructed view of the town is to be obtained from the top.

OF PEDESTRIANS.
City People Are Frequently Rum Down by the Modern Pneu-
 matic-Tired Vehicles.

Of dangers which threaten pedes- trians, automobiles and bicycles are
 among the most serious. Ordinances
 which restrict their speed to eight
 miles an hour in cities are seldom
 needed. The most fragrant violations
 rarely are punished with adequate se- verity. Gliding noiselessly and swift iy over smooth payements, these vehi- cles are apt to run down the unfor- ;tunate who may cross their paths. In turning corners, they seldom reduce speed to the rate ordained by law
 Frequently they collide before they can signal theiF approach. The eyclist on such occasions is apt to suffer with the pedestrian, and consequently is more careful than the chauffeur. who relies on the superior strength of his vehicle. Of horseless carriages, driven at reckless speed, the greatest number circulate in suburbs of French cities. The driver of one who had made a run ! of some hundred kilometers an hour In a race near Paris, when recently called upon to explain some accidents laid to his charge. could remember the
 jolting>of his wheels, but had no time to stop for investigation,e The impudence of autoists made the Lon don police desperate until they dis covered an old ordinance which limited the speed of vel.icles in city streets to three miles an hour. Everyone had to be announced by footman swing Ing a flag a hundred feet ahead. When customary British conscien- tiousness enforced this rule. the auto mobiles disappeared. says Louis Wind- muller, in Municipal Affaires.
 While they remain expensive. the use of these vehicles is naturally con fined to the few who can indulge in file luxury. But a widely felt popu lar demand for them, stimulated by the desire to go with little effort as fast as possibles will increase produc- tion and improve quality. Increasing sales will reduce cost. until fair mo- bile may be had for the price of good cycle. When their use becomes universal, they will be more danger ous than trolleys- which are confined to their tracks Notwithstanding in- numerable laws to prevent them, cas- ualties are of daily occurrence; it will be difficult to restrain autos from kill ing pedestrians. from destroying the slower vehicles. and from injuring each other when thousands race at the rate of 40 miles an hour over the I common highways They should then be restricted to inclosed roads of their aTn. as locomotives very properly are,

CLOTHING IN THE NURSERY.
Should Be We'll Ventilated in Order to Guard Against Mustiness
 and Infection.

| A visit to modern day nursery that is properly equipped gives a house mother many useful hints. One is the
 necessity to keep wearing apparel properly aired. In all we'll conducted nurseries, the clothes taken off from the child in the morning and replaced
 by clean outfits provided by the in stitution are well shaken in the outer air, loosely folded, and gathered in an open bag made of knotted cord. The bag is then hung out of the window, or sometimes in large, we'll ventilated rooms filled with dry heat. At night, when the child leaves, he is dressed in these clothes thus freshened. The pro- cess is partly to guard against possible infection in the garments, but as we'll to air them thoroughly and get rid of the close, stuffy smell that clothing worn constantly in a tenement room, where cooking, laundry work, etc, is carried on, is sure to acquire, says the New York Post. Personal cloth ing in any home should never be shut up in dramatically sealed closets No well-trained architect now thinks of drawing house building plan that does not provide for ventilated clothes closets. But houses built only a few years ago still have their series of stuffy little boxes, air-tight when the door is shut, hot, moth breeding, and altogether the most undesirable re- ceptacle for wearing apparel or bed clothing that can be imagined. Such closets may be somewhat improved by having the door panels taken out and a fine wire grating inserted that will let in air and little light, and prac- tically keep out dust. Even then cloth ing kept in them should be constantly taken out to the last garment, and the closet left wide open for two or three hours to the sun and air before it's contents are restored.

No substitute for sIeen

A London paper says that the health of people in fashionable society is be- ing dangerously threatened by a new drug which is popularly regarded as substitute for sleep. Very discreetly 1t declines to name this dangerous sub-
 tance. When tea was first introduced into Europe it was commended for the same virtues, and it was believed that 1t would no longer be necessary to waste seven or eight hours in sleep. But there is no reason to suppose that chemists will ever be able to devise any substitute for sleep which win not in the long run bring nervous break downs.
 New Livery for Preside ent's Coachman
 President Roosevelt has adopted a new livery for his coachman and foot man. The trousers are very faint cream doeskin, cut to the knee. with patent leather Wellington boots. The coat and vest are slashed with vel low and green, and the beaver hat is adorned with the tri-color cockade. which was introduced early in this ad- ministration. The footman's te.at is cut away almost to the extent of a swallow-tail, and the skirts or spikes are very long.
