London Sparrows

One hardly looks for natural history les
sons IN the streets of London, but the OBJ
server need never despair Of lighting upon
something of interest, even though the
subject be so common a being as the Lon
don sparrow. The other day one Of these
pert little birds was fiuttering excitedly
outside grocer's window, keeping him
self suspended just without the glass as
long as he could. After a moments rest
in the gutter he returned again, and this
time there was no mistaking the object of
his excitement. He was vainly striving to
get at some bottled green peas in the fore
front of the window. In the country all
sorts OF devices are resorted to for the
purpose of getting rid of sparrows where
they bear very bad name for their de-
structive proclivities, and many a Lon
don gardener would cheerfully heaye half
a brick at his visitors If there were the
slightest chance of hitting them. Can it
be that this sparrows wits, sharpened by
the chase of his enemies, are undergoing
an educative process whereby he is ouali-
Tying for that advanced stage of civiliza
ton marked by a preference for prepared
foods over the raw products of the earth?

the petition of the heirs Of the Martha
Bucklew estate to have the trustee. VIII
liam A. Wilson, removed came up before

handle the business of the estate To-day
was the date set for Wilson to appear to
show cause why he should not be re-
moved. Attorney E. B. MartinelH ap-
peared in his behalf.
MaTtinelli showed to the court where
his client had made an accounting in
April, 1903, and said that up to that time
the business was all settled up and passed
upon by Judge Angellotti. 1t was also
claimed by the trustee that only recently
another full accounting had been made
out and sent to all the heirs
MartinelH declared that in order to re-
move Wilson as trustee a suit must be
brought against him and that in the pres
ent action Judge Lennon had no turisdic-
ton. Judge Lennon reserved his decision
for one week. 1t is understood that the
petition will be withdrawn in the mean
time.

VIII MAKE the QdSHlllS MISS
Marion Jones, daughter of Sen
ator j. P. Jones. the wife of Robert D.
Farquhar.
There are few daughters of the West
better equipped for social distinction than
the daughter of the Senator from Nevada,
for besides being weIl-born and well-bred
she is clever and athletic and is possessed
Of a style that reflects her personality.
Moreover, her natural qualities were given
full scope for development in study and
travel, much of her time having been
spent abroad.
The beautiful home Of the family at
Santa Monica has been for many years a
center of summer gayety. and it was here
that the young bride spent much of her
girlhood. AS athlete Miss Jones has
few equaIs-in tennis, none. 1t is her love
for outdoor pastimes that has given her
the mental and physical poise that so dis
tinguish her.
The ceremony will take place in Grace
Church and promises TO be a large affair.
Many guests viii attend from Washing
ton. where the Senator has long been a
strong figure.

these healthy, happy, hopeful little types
who have been left parentless in this big,
big world and not feel a burning desire
to go down in his jeans for a quarter or
two to help keep up that heaIthfulness,
happiness and hopefulness? Twenty-Five
cents is the whole price of admission, and
it will buy such commodities as are rare

never for worthier cause. From present
indications the railroad people will have
