Scent in Birds.


 Animals follow their noses with unerring instinct. A dog identifies his master by smelling him. A goat picks her kid from an inclosure of hundreds with her nose. After separa ton COW is never satisfied with her calf until she has thoroughly smelled it. The feathered family are so deficient as to smell and taste that they go any where and eat anything. I have seen birds contentedly breeding about slaughter houses and sewer dis charges where the air was so contam- inated that my horse would turn up its nose, draw it's lips back from it's teeth and groan, and I could only se- cure my material by working with a cloth dipped in disinfectant bound over mN lips and nostrils. The birds eat unspeakable things. It is noth- ing to find them raking the river banks for worms at the very mouth of sewer dischafge. Beyond all question the birds have sight and the animals scent, but where each is de- fective in one of these senses, it seems compensated for the greater degree in which it possesses the other-Out- ing.

One in Captivity in Hartford That
 Cannot Be Classified
 John A. Gaghan, watchman at Riy- erside park, Hartford, has a study for the ornithologists of that city, He has a bird which he caught the other day that none of the several hundred who have seen 1t is able to name.
 1t was first seen on q tree in River side park. It showed fight by opening it's mouth, screeching like a eat and spreading it's wings. A lawn rake was extended to it. It caught hold of the rake with it's bill and was carried to continent.
 MT Gaghan says that about forty different names have been given for the bird, but that no two of those who had named it had agreed as to it's species. It has thin legs and when it's legs are strengthened stands about two feet high. It's wings measure more than two and half feet from tip to tip 1t has a bill about live inches long and little or no tail feathers. and the belief is that it is young bird. It has brown and white feathers which grow like the feathers of Plymouth Rock chicken The feathers on it's head are the same as those on its body, but the head feathers stand out like the bristles on pigs back. The general belief is that the bird is uncommon in this sec tion-

Germany Favors Leniency.

BERLIN, July 10.-The officials of the United States embassy here have been verbally discussing Chinese af- fairs this week with the foreign office representatives. The former again con- veyed to the German government the desire of the state department that the Chinese shall be treated as leniently as possible, consistent with the at tainment of the aims of the powers. No specific suggestions were made by the United States, but the general idea was again impressed that the Chinese domestic difficulties are such that noth- ing can be attained by pressing the Picking government unduly. The for eign office expresses itself as being in full accord with the United States and intends further withdrawal of troops from Tientsin, which is already grad ually progressing, and the German officials are confident that the occupa- ton of the city is no longer necessary as a guarantee that China will carry out all the subordinate articles of the peace treaty.

THECHASE GIVEN UP
Outlaw Tracy's Pursuers Gall
 Off the Dogs.
WHEREABOUTS NOW A MYSTERY.
q Rumor Thnt the Desperate Has Been Joined by His Comrnde, Merrill = Suspicious CaD-
 tures at RentOn.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 10. - The pursuit of Outlaw Harry Tracy ap- pears to be temporarily suspended. Sheriff Cudihee has called in the guards from the southern suburbs, leaving only sufficient number for q careful patrol It is believed that Cud- ihee expects the convict if he reap pears at all to show up in another part of the country. The posse that started from Benton with the bloodhounds yesterday morning returned in the aft ernoon after a fruitless search. Since early morning the posse had been securing the country between Renton and Black River Junction. A large ter ritory had been sentried without re- suit
 It is believed that Tracy is hiding in the dense woods of this district. Guards have been stationed at every road in the section. It is believed that he will soon make his appearance at some house and demand food, as he is known to be without supplies. The ru- nor that Merrill has joined his mur- derous comrade cannot be substan- tiated.
 
 AS matters stand at this moment no one knows the exact whereabouts of the desperado.
 A Salem penitentiary guard who is with the party at Renton is certain that Merrill and Tracy are once more together. Three suspicious looking in- dividuals have been captured at Ren- ton. The men have the appearance of tramps, and it is thought that they may be three of the four men who met Tracy at Black river bridge Monday night and walked through Benton in the convict's company.
 At the jail they gave their names as Andy Nelson, Tom Madden and Phil Ritchie. The first two say they are loggers, and the third says he is an iron bridge builder. Their statements as to their recent actions are conflict ing. A diligent search is being made for the fourth alleged accomplice, who is thought to be hanging around Rem ton or may have joined the convict. RuIhors are rife that the fourth man is none other than Merrill, but this is generally discredited.

THE TERMS MODIFIED United States Authorities
 Gain Leniency For China.
 A VICTORY FOR SECRETARY HAY.

Protest From Picking Regarding Se-
 Verity of Conditions Proposed by
 Powers In the Restorntion o6
 Tientsin Results EavorabIy.
 WASHINGTON, July 1O.-China's protest, in which she had the thorough sympathy of the United States, against the severity of the conditions proposed by most of the powers for the with drawal of foreign troops from Tien- tsin and the restoration of that city to Chinese authority has met with sue cess. 1t is now certain that the con ditions will be materially modified so that China can have no objection to accepting them.
 This government led the way in op- position to the Tientsin proposals, which were regarded as particularly objectionable in the features concern ing the maintenance of order in the city by the Chinese authorities. 1t was proposed that China should establish a constabuIary force in Tientsin, the size of this being limited, and should not permit any imperial. troops to ap- proach nearer than thirty miles.
 Believing that under these conditions China could not properly maintain or der if serious disturbances occurred, the United States government objected and asked the ether powers to agree to notifications. Japan, Great Britain and Russia joined with the United States and information is now at hand that Germany and France have aban- doned their radical position, thus in suring the result which China desires.
 The negotiations have been conduct ed entirely i'll Washington between Secretary Hay and the ambassadors and ministers of the powers and not in Picking, as has been supposed.

Views on Ambition and
 Dyspepsia.

Dyspepsia, wrote Eugene Field, "often incapacitates man for endea- vor and sometimes it extinguishes the fire of ambition Field was dyspep- tic himself. Though a great man despite this handicap he felt the blighting effects of the disease all his life. Thousands suffer similarly.
 A weak, tired or diseased stomach can't perform the process of digestion 1t needs rest. If forced to work it will grow constantly weaker. If it gets rest it will soon grow strong again. Such preparation as Kodol Dyspep- sia Cure will give it just such rest. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure does the stom- ach's work. 1t digests what you eat. Don't diet. Dieting is neither more nor less than partial starvation. Star vation never benefited anyone. If you take Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, you need suffer the bangs neither of, fndi- gestion nor of starvation. Equally good for children.

Let me offer another example of Zola's indefatigableness in giving a high polish to his literary work. I stood directly behind him when he spoke at Alphonse Daudet's grave, one cold winters day in the Pere Lachaise ceme- tery. As he read from the manuscript, written in that bold, black chirography which reflected the energy and daring of the man, I read it too. following him line by line and page by page. When the account of the funeral appeared in the Temps, remarked one or two mo- table differences between the printed and written speech which had so care fully perused. I knew that this could not be attributed to stenography, for the Temps was in press almost before we quilted the cemetery, and so had been given in advance a copy. of the speech. I asked for an explanation which I hd already divined, and this is what Zola wrote me: Just before starting for Pere Lachaise, could not
