No Birds on Women's Hats.

Chicago, April 1O.-Bird feathers
threaten to embroil Illinois society
in difficulties leading to the criminal
courts. Women who wear the plum
age of songsters and millincrs who
sell them such ornamentation are to
be arrested and prosecuted under a
law providing imprisonment and fine.
The task of finding the culprits
and bringing them to justice has
been assumed by groop of women
whose social standing is in itself a
guaranty of opportunity and ability
to collect evidence in the highest
circles.
1t has been decided to press the
prosecution of the statue enacted by
the Illinois Legislature in 1899 fx-
ing a penalty of fine and imprison-
ment for robbing the nest of any
wild bird and for the killing or hav-
ing in possession, alive or dead, any
bird, save those known as game birds

Thousands of Indians Suffer.

Denver, Col, April Twenty thou
sand Indians on the Sacaton reservation
are suffering from famine, which, if
allowed to continue, is certain to result
in fearful mortality among the Pima and
Maricopa tribes. Agent Hadley is Sc
curing temporary relief for the Indians
and urges that petitions be sent to Con-
gress asking the Washington authorities
to provide means to avert the disaster,
which, he says, is sure to come unless
the Indians are given water and supplies.
White ranchers above the reservation
have diverted all the water and the
Indians have had none for many months.
They are abandoning their ranches and
their cattle are dying by scores for lack
of feed.

Brutality Murdered.

Mrs. Christina. Blake, an aged wild
ow. probably IS years old, living 3
miles south of GAINESVILLE, this state
was one day last week outraged and
afterwards brutally murdered by two
white men. .,
The white men held for the douhle
crime are J. @. Slower and Charley
Pirkle, his brother-in-law.
When Mrs. Blake's dead body was
found in her house. her clothing torn
and disarranged, the two men held
for numbering her were lying stupe-
fed with whiskey within few feet
of the corpse, which was scarcely
cold.
They bad committed the crime and
had made no effort to escape.
Either that or they had been SO nor,
rified at their deed that they hao
sought to find forgetfulness in WHISKY

ties refused to respond to the instinct
of self-preservatlon: ;oa o+

fined in Jail. ,oo+on

A PROHIBITION STORY.
A Curious Happening in the State
of Maine.

A girl in Maine, who is a church
member, recently ofticiated at the GER
emory of naming her uncle's yacht,
and being an ardent prohibitionist
use d bottle of water instead of bot
tie of wine. Curiously enough, how
ever, the church of which she was a
member took the view that the bottle
of wine she didn't use probably made
some weak young man drunk, whereas
it would have harmed nobody had she
used it in the ceremony. Therefore 1t
voted to censure her for putting temp
tation in the path of young man. A
delightful touch to this story which is
not told as joke, though it reads like
one, is that the young woman success
fully appealed from the action or the
church on two grounds-first, because
out of the millions of sbottles OF wine
in the world the church had failed to
designate the particular bottle which
she might have used, and. even II 1t
did so, she would thereupon decide
that she would have used some other
bottle; and, second, the church had
not proved either that the wine was
drunk by young man or that a young
man was drunk by the wine. In re-
buttal she asserted that the wine was
actually consumed by an old man, who
being a seasoned prohibitionist was
therefore able to stand 1t; and she
challenged the church council to dis
prove her assertion.

QUEEN OF OUR NAVY.
Battle Ship Illinois Surpasses Fast Ore.
uOn, Alabama and KearSarue.

The new battleship Illinois is queen
of the United States navy today, for in
her recent rigorous test from Newport
to New York she surpassed in speed,
power and efficiency the Oregon, Ala
bama and her sister ship the Kear-
sarge, which she beats by half knot,
says the New York Evening Journal.
The speed was 1871 knots an hour.
Commander Usher says that under
forced draft greater speed would of
course be obtained.
In maneuvering, in handling the
guns, hosting ammunition, loading
and sighting and in swinging to one
point and another, as though engaged
in fight, she fully showed her supe-
riority.
1.-The efficiency of the men was mark
ed very high, and the combined fig
ures of all tests put us first in the serv-
ice," said the commander.

Chicago Man Says Great Steel
Buildings Doomed to Fall.

| "The steel framework in many oil
the big buildings in the business dis
trict of Chicago Is corroding, making
them very dangerous. 1t is only a
question of few years when these
building will fall to the ground"
This statement was made by Gener.
al William S. Smith at the thirty
fifth annual dinner of the Chicago
real estate board. He added:
"That the steel framework of some
of the skyscrapers is in the condition
stated is nothing short of public out
rage"
The speaker explained that his
statement were based on personal OBJ
servatiOns and Investigations.
"The steel framework imbedded 10
concrete will last 1900 years. he said.
'But the steel framework in many OF
the big buildings is left free to the &C.
ton OF the air and gases which circu-
late through the tile and space about
the steel.
THE owners of these structures
have the steel painted with oil. This
oil will withstand tho corroding pro-
GERS about three years. Then begins
the corroding of the steel, and within
few years your skyscraper will fall"
The speaker stid that the elevated
road structures would not withstand
the corrision. He asserted that with
in ten years they would be dangerous
and and within 20 years out of service.
The corrosion of Oue-tlfth of the thick
ness of the steel framework of the
structure, he said, would render them
incapable of bearing their own weight.

second fabby, weak and tired

Children are not alike either.
