GOOD LUCK BIRDS.
No One is Permitted to Kill Vile
Duck In Honan.

1N(N III itSta9Afs
The people in Honan, says Alice
Hamilton Rich in Leslio's Weekly,
do not eat ducks, especially wild
ducks. No one is allowed to kill
them. 1t is regarded almost like
killing a person. The reason for
this care is found in the following
story:
Long, long ago there was a widow
who had very bright son. The
brother-inlaw, because the widow
refused to marry him, took away all.
the property and turned the widow
and SON out to die The mother
found some work; but, being afraid
the wicked uncle would kill her son,
she sent him far away. But the god
of good luck took the boy for his
brother and went with him. lie
was very, very fortunate and finally
became an emperor 1t then be-
came his duty to find his mother,
not only because he was anxious to
care for her, but also because she
only knew where were the ancestral
tablets and graves. Great rewards
were offered for her discovery, and
all the mandarins put out procla-
nations to that effect. Finally
wise man came to the emperor and
asked him what kind of birds lived
in his province. The king did not
even know in what province he was
born The emperor replied that he
remembered as Il child seeing in
spring great numbers Of wild ducks.
The wise man then said, "Giye me
letter written to your mother, and
will send it to her" The emperor
was very glad to do this, although
he greatly wondered how it would
be possible for the wise man to
know whore to send this letter.
One day the poor widow was
washing rice at a pool when a wild
duck came Auttering down at her
side. But something seemed wrong
with its wing. On examining it she
found there was a letter attached to
it. She thought the letter must
surely have come from the gods, so
carried it to the village elders. On
their examination they found it was
addressed to the widow and brought

sIXTEEN-INCH TELESCOPE.
From the Boston Transcript.

The Alvan Clark & Sons corporation
of Cambridgeport. the famous telescope
manufacturers, has just been awarded
the contract for constructing a sixteen
inch refracting telescope for the Uni
versity of Cincinnati. This is an i'm
portant piece of work, and the securing
of it by the Cambrdgeport corporation
adds one more to its long list of cele-
brated instruments. The Cincinnati OBJ
servatory is under the direction of
Professor j. q. Porter who has been
at it's head for the last twenty years
The observatory is one of the oldest in
this country, and has an 11-nch tele-
scope by Merz, of Munich, made fifty
five years ago, which at the time was
the largest glass in America and one of
the three largest in the world. 1t was
rcfigured by Alvan Clark in 1870 The
observatory is otherwise we'll equipped
tude stations.
The specifications for the new tele-
scope call for an objective of 16 inches
clear aperture, having a focal length
not greater than 20 feet The instru-
ment Is to be mounted in the ordinary
equatorial manner, the necessary anti
friction devices being supplied for the
polar-aXis. The pier will be of iron and
contain the driving clock and electric
control The telescope will be equipped
with quick and slow motions in right
ascension and declination, and with
coarse and fine circles. Dials and set
ting wheels will be arranged on the pier
so that the instrument can be set from
the floor to within five minutes of time
and one degree of are. The regular acs
cessories will accompany the instru-
ment. About eighteen months will be
required to complete the telescope. and
while the formal acceptance of the in
strument will be at the Cambrldgeport
works, the hpecitications call for its de-
livery and erection at the observatory
in Cincinnati.

Former Captain Dreyfus marched in
the funeral cortege, according to the

he passed completely unnoticed by the

came Nine. Dreyfus, accompanied by

| The Temps today says Dreyfus went
to the Zola house yesterday evening
and watched beside the corpse with the
family. He induced Nine. Zola to give
him back his promise not to attend
the funeral and he walked in the pro-
cession today between NJ. La Lance, a
former protesting deputy from Alsace
in the German Reichstag, and M. Mo-
nor, a member of the institute.
Long before ! o'clock this afternoon,
the hour fixed for the start of the cor
tege from the Zola residence in the
Rue de BruZelles, an immense concourse
began gathering along the short route
leading to. the entrance of the Mont
Martro cemetery. from which the pub
lice was completely excluded from mid
day. The immediate vicinity of the
house was surrounded by q Gordon of
police, through which none but rela-
tves and intimate friends of Zola were
allowed to pass.

nificent floral offerings from ZOla's ad-
mirers In all parts of the world.
Nine. Zola wished to follow her hus-
bands body to the grave, but her doc
tors absolutely forbade her to do so.
She therefore bade farewell to the re-
mains in the mortuary chamber. Her
grief was most poignant when the cof-
fin was removed from the house.

to Hide Identity.

By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Pueblo, Col, Oct 5.-Much against
his WILL a ragged and haggard tramp
who applied for medicine at dispens-
AIRY here last night confessed that he
was Professor w. A. Wyckoff of
Princeton, N. J. When he walked into
the dispensary he begged for medicine
to relieve cramps of the stomach, and
said that he had walked fifty miles
through the storm and cold during the
preceding two days.
A surgeon charged him with being
only an imitation tramp, and Professor
Wyckoff tried in vain to create the i'm
preston that he was a professional
hobo. Finally a letter fell from his
pocket, addressed to Professor w. A.
Wyckoff, Princeton. N. j. Seeing that
he was fairly caught, the man admit
ted that he was Professor Wyckoff. He
had tramped the state for weeks. he
said, lived the life of hobo, slept in
box cars and beat his way about the
country. In few hours he was able
to resume his sociological travels.

CAPT. STRONG WEDs MAY YoHE
Ceremony Performed at Buenos
Ayres Ends Elopement.
BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.

BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
New York. Oct. 5.--Putnam Bradlec
Strong and May Yohe were married at
Buenos Ayres, Argentine Republic, on
Tuesday. The first news of 1t reached
this city this morning in the shape of
a cable dispatch to the former actress
lawyer, Emanuel Friend. 1t reads
thus
Married. Second. Yohe."
On October the divorce of Lord
Francis Hope from his wife was made
absolute by the English courts. When
they went to Buenos Ayres after their
reconciliation" i'm Paris, it was with
the avowed intention of being married
as soon as the woman was free to wed
again.
The elopment began in July, 1901.
Strong, a son of former Mayor William
l.. Strong, of this city, then started on
his way to the Philippines, to serve as
a commissioned officer in the regular
army.
Lady Francis Hope had been playing
here and suddenly disappeared. Much
scandal followed when it became known
that Strong and the actress were living
together in san Francisco hotel. To
avoid court martial he resigned from
the army and, with the woman, sailed
for Japan. They returned to New York
on April 2s and set up housekeeping in
Dobbs Ferry, In July. Bradlee disap-
peared, He left hurriedly for Europe,
apparently abandoning the Yohe wo-
man. On July II the actress openly
announced that her captain had taken
with him 100000 worth of gems.
The Strong family, to hush up the
scandal, gave May Yohe, some 500 900.
She packed her truck and hurried to
Europe after her captain. Within two
weeks they had met in Paris and with
some ten trunks We're on the route for
Buenos Ayres

DREW LINE ON HORSES.
Director Wormser Says Proposals
Can't Be Asked for,

There is one thing that Director of
Public Safety WOrmser has recently re-
fused to ask bids for on. and that is
horses. Some persons who hadn't read
Solicitor Watson's opinion on the con-
tract question, and who favor the ad-
vertising for bids in all cases. told the
director that he should follow his usual
custom and advertise for sealed pro-
posals for horses. But he kicked and
said he wouldn't.
Not on your life." he is reported to
have said. There are things you can
ask for bids for and award the con-
tract to the lowest responsible bidder,
but you can't do it with horses. Some
one might send in bid agreeing to
furnish the city with horses at $50
each. and you know what kind they'd
be. We'd have to buy them, though, if
we advertised
And so the horses will be bought
without advertising for bids.
