Now, the squirrels must make provis-

til the snow leaves the ground. You
would think that they would build their
homes in the summer or occupy the same

build at the last moment, shortly before
cold weather sets in. A year ago they
started building their houses in the latter

they did not start to construct their

their nests. 1 speak of the gray squirrels.

Mr.. Smith said that he had observed
that the robins had f1ocked in the park
preparatory to their migration south later
than usual and that seemed to Indicate
that the birds knew that winter was to
be slow in coming this year. Another
thing that tended to confirm his opinion
of late winter was the fact that the
keeper of Van Cortlandt park had in

Unionism the Main Factor.

Los Angeles Express:
While the preliminary sl1irmishes before
the coal strike commission indicate that
the questions of wages and hours of labor
are of prime Importance. there is no dis
guising the fact that recognition of the
United Mine Workers is to be the princi-
pal bone of contention. BY the terms of
the agreement to arbitrate this phase of
the dispute between the workmen and
their employers was distinctly barred but
subsequent developments have shown that
neither side to the controversy is able 10
dismiss matter which undoubtedly IS up
permost in mind.
In the statements filed by the operators
with the commission a few days previous
to the beginning of the hearing they took
occasion to state once more their unalter-
able opposition to recognition of the
miners union. AS counterblast to this
announcement Mr.. Mitchell devotes a
greater part of his testimony before the
commission at Scranton Friday to argu-
ment showing TIE benefits to De derived
from recognition of the labor orSa MIA ton
From this it is apparent that tbs hardest
par Of the battle is to be over the ques
tiOE of uniOniSm-
As the trade union is a recognized insti-
tuition in this country it is more than prob
able that the operators will find consider
so that the jury will not be influenced by
shc argument Of Mr.. Mitchell even if it is
forbidden to consider the matter.
1t will rot be easy to forget the state
ment Of the leader of the miners that the
operators who TOW absolutely refuse 70
have anything to do with the organization
in the anthracite field, in their other ca
pacities as managers of railroads rec5g
nize unions composed of firemen, engI-
dealings with the officials of such bodies
1t might be well for the opera tors to re-
member that a display of Obstinacy in
court often is a factor in the loss Of a
case.

OPEN WINTER
This Year, According to Habits o
Animals and Birds

We are going to have a late and mild
winter this year. according to the weather
prophets who build their representations
on the habits of animals and birds
This winter in my opinion will be an
open one. and the really cold weather
will not arrive until much later than
usual" said Director John W Smith, of
the Central Park menagerie, today. Il
will give you the reason for making that
prediction During the years that I have
been in the park I have been observing
the habits of the squirrels and birds here
and 1 find that their instinct can be relied
upon as being correct nine times out of
ten. Nature teaches them how to pro-
vide for their necessities and an unvary-
ing rule is to proportion the provisions to
their wants. just nature supplies some
animals with light coat of fur for sum
rner use and a heavier coat for winter.
The fox has coat light in weight and in
color for the summer and a heavy red
coat in the winter Only the winter coat
is any good for garments for the ladies.
The wild rabbit has gray coat in sum-
mer to conform to the surrounding ground

AFTER MARRIAGE.
Different Living Affects Some People.

Z never drank coffee until after I was

My husband drank coffee and I
thought it was nice to drink with him.
and we enjoyed it tocether. After
while I found that my digestive organs
were much disturbed. but not knowing
the cause, 1 went on drinking coffee and
growing more wretched each day.
In due time, three little girls came to
what ought to have been happy home
but 1 was nervous and unhappy myself
and could not make anyone else happy;
to my great CONSERVATION. two of my
little girls had spasms and I, a nervous
wreck, found it impossible to eat any
thing that aid not hurt my stomach.

night, and never slept sound-I woul<

Finally, I read of Postum Food COFFEE.
and my husband got a package from

Of the Spanish-American War
During the Porto Rico campaign"
said Mr. McCook. my company was

and sentries were posted along it, Dur

Tne sentry naturally resented the in
trusion, and when the bull got within
range prodded him sharply in the nose
with his sword bayonet The bull re-
treated with an angry roar.
Evidently the injured nose troubled
the animal for presently he made an
other rush for the fence Again he met
a vicious stab. BY this time the in
furiated animal was reused. He upset
the sentry, snapped the wire fence and
was in the midst Of the camp in
second. The scene that followed beg.

sleeping in the little pup tents used
in the field. As the angry animal rolled
through the field he tripped and
stumbled over the tent ropes. and in a
few minutes dozens of men were suug-
Cling to get loose from the canvas and
howling in pain as the feet of the
animal landed on them. A strike in
in bowling alley is not more complete
than the way in which the indignant
bull demolished the company street of
tents. There was little sleep that night

In Russia the Gar. when going out

In both the Russian and Austrian
courts no dish must be placed second

had not been touched the first time it
was served.
The British court is freer than any
other from such customs, which are
usually retained at the sacrifice of
common sense. The sound common
sense which is as characteristic of
King Edward as it was of his mother
has always been opposed to antiuuated
ceremonials AT court.
