lSRD DAY.

The deadlock continues in the senate regard
ing the Cuban reciprocity bill. A message was
received from the president the subject.
Close attention was given to the reading of it.
The rest of the days session was spent in ma
king speeches on the confirmation of Captain
VIM. Crozier to be chief of the ordnance bu-
reau. The two principal objections to the con-
firmation We're that he is the patentee of gun
carriage and that it is unusal to put at the head
of a bureau one low in rank as captain.
The first was met by the fact that Crozier had
transferred his patents to the government.
The senate has passed the bill to authorize an
issue of bonds by school districts in Oklahoma
Territory having population of not less than
5000 for erecting school buildings and pur-
chasing the ground for the same.
The house passed the irrigation bill and it

fathered the principles of the bill, and to his
persistent efforts, in the face of strong opposi-
ton, credit is due for its final pasSage.

MOVING DAY FOR
THE PARK H|PPOS.
Caliph Went to His Summer
Quarters Without Trouble,
but Miss urphy Was
Bribed with Bread.

The 'hippos" In the park were to-day
moved from their winter quarters out
into the open, whore they can daily in
the pools and be wondered at by Wis
itors.
Sometimes this IS no easy job, but
to-day 1t passed off without trouble.
Director John W. Smith and ten men
got at the task and to make sure that
the "hippos" did not escape into the
park, built a ~passageway from the
winter quarters to the pools. Iron bars
were used and It was made strong
enough to stop even Miss Murphy or
her husband. Caliph.
Caliph, who is a gentle-soulcd crea-
ture for a hippopotamus, was brought
out first. No trouble was anticipated
from him, anyway. Keeper Snyder pre-
ceded him and the animal followed
meekly. He was led to the northern
pool, where ne plunged gratefully into
the water. The gate between this pool
and the more %southerly one was then
locked and preparations made to bring
out Miss Murphy n her baby, Lotos,
the Lily of the Nile"
Miss Murphy is something Of a Kan
tIppe. She makes a fuss on the slight
est provocatlon. so they decided To
bride her with bread, Of which she is
very fond.
Keeper SNYDER, holding a loaf of bread
in each hand. went lust ahead Of her
and behind her toddled Lotos. Miss
Murphy followed the bread, snorting
and vawning at 1t with her great Jaws,
Until the pool was reached. and then
SNYDER threw the bait into the water.
Down they both plunged after 1t and
they were moved.
Caliph. who hasn't seen his wife all
winter rushed over to the iron fence
between the two pools and butted
against II and yelled "howdy'' at Miss
Murphy and the young one. He was
inclined to get mad because they would
not let him In TO shake hands. but Miss
Murphy was a frost anyway and
Caliph's ardor soon cooled.

bokenImbe Tried
to Kill Playmates and
Has Since Been Kept
Prisoner.
STATE U AID
Society for Prevention Of
Cruelty to Children Now At
tempts to Make Provision
for Unfortunate Lad.

For two years, or since he was
seven years old. Robert Scott has
been bound hand and foot in a room
In the home of his parents, at No.
pa Hoboken street. He is an ipbo-
cile who has threatened violence to
lis brothers and sisters and whose
parents for that reason have kept
him tethered closely to tho wall.
The child's Imprisonment he's
come to the notice Of the Hoboken
Society for the Prevention of Cru.
city to Children, and Mrs, c. B.
Alexander, of Castle Point, who is
q member of that organization. has
been making efforts to relieve the
suffering of the child.
Poormaster Barck. Of Hobokan,
has been appeaIed to several times,
and each tine he has said that he
has been unable to have the State
authorities take charge of the i'm
beetle.
Until two years ago the little fellow
was not strong enough to do much
harm, and was permitted to play with
the other children. In fact, 1t was not
noticed until then that his weakness of
mental faculties was SO pronounced as
to make him an utter hnbecile. But
when he was seven years old and still
incapable OF exercising the ordinary
mental functions. and when 1t was no.
ticed that he fiercely attacked his play
mates. even trying to kill them, he was
placed under confinement. A room was
set apart for him, and there he has been
closely bound for the last two years.
The parents believed that they could
take care OF the child In that way
themselves. and are said TO have kept
the condition of the hoy a secret.
When Mrs. Alexander heard OF 1t. how
ever, she interested the Society for the
Prevention OF Cruelty to Children in
the case. and an investigation followed.
The Society is now trying to interest
the State Board of Chlldren's Guar
dians with a view to having the boy
taken to an institution for feeble-mind-
ed youth.

That a large proportion Of creatures
with gorgeous wings were not made
for mans special delectation. Is
proved by the fact that SO many Of
our most beautiful moths fly only at
night. Therefore it is that he who,
in afternoon ramble. discovers the
great Luna moth clinging to some twig
like a splendid leaf. always regards
the event as an original discovery
and honestly believes that no one
ever had such an experience before.
So perfectly does its color protect 1t
from careless eyes in its leaf hiding
place. that it is rarely found in day
light. although it is a very common
insect. At night it may more often
be seen hovering near ligh. like the

A naturalized citizen of the United

who is in business in Cleveland, was
locked up in Constantinople, Turkey,
charged with conspiracy. Through
the offices of some Turkish business
men he was released under $4,000
bonds, effective during his stay Of
fifty days. He has just returned to
his home in Cleveland. Concerning
his experience, he said:

as my presence became known the
officers came for me. They question
ed me, asking if spoke the Armenian
language. This denied, because had
I admitted it I am sure that l would
never have returned to America. The
Turks fear American Armenians. They
think that in America the people have
an advanced knowledge of high ex-
plosives, which might be used to blow
up the Sultan. They suspected me Of
being in sympathy with the Armen-
ians. After putting NE in prison they
had some men come into my cell and
tell funny stories in the Armenian
language. They wanted me to betray
my knowledge of it by laughing. But
I didn't laugh, for had / smiled 1
would not be here now to tell the tale.
The stories were very Iunny, but

in spite of my wish to laugh. Chi
