INCUBATOR FOR CROWS.
Farmer Matches Them to Supply
Millinery House.

Farmer Billings Of Brookdale has
taken a contract to furnish a Chicago
milliner with crow heads at % cents
apiece, writes the Susquehanna (Pa.)
correspondent of the Chicago Inter
Ocean. 1t costs something to get q
dead crow, because it is an elusive bird
and ammunition costs something.
Billings, however, is an enterprising
Spectator. He has devised a scheme
by which a maximum number OF
crows heads can be obtained at small
expense He has set up a chicken in
cubator in which are placed as fast as
laid the eggs Of about a hundred hen
crows that have been trapped, with
perhaps a dozen cock crows.
Within fifteen days the little crea-
lures are Matched, and a fortnight later
they are ready to be beheaded. 1t is
understood that the head of a crow
chick is worth just as much as that of
the Oldest Of the same species. AT the
uniform rate OF four for a dollar dead
they will pay the producer. Farmer
Billings has the only crow hatchery In
the world, and he is justly proud Of it.

GIRL CHANGES COLOR.
Her Skin Varies in Sympathy
With Different Emotions.

Miss Marga Cerbus, young Rouma-
MAN girl whose skin possesses the re-
markable property of changing color in
sympathy with her varying sensations,
is the physiological wonder of the day
for Partisan scientists, says the New
York World.
Her skin does not reflect the colors i'll
her vicinity, but complete change is
produced by the different emotions she
feels. Anger makes it much darker
than that of negress. Joy turns it to
a pretty pink shade. Anxiety causes
her to assume a pale greenish tint.
Fear turns half her body to beautiful
violet hue The most extraordinary
feature of the case is that the colOrs
rarely commingle, and for the greater
part of the time changes take place
without apparent cause.
Her natural color is warm dark
shade. Sometimes the face turns sud
denly to a deadly white, while the rest
of the body remains unchanged. AT
other times an arm, the neck, a hand
or a foot turns a different shade, ac-
cording to the sensation experienced
The only time the skin remains with
out variation is when she is asleep.
These curious variations in skin have
only made their appearance since she
met with a boating accident in which
| she nearly drowned.

CHAIN OF ARTIFICIAL LAKES
Series of Improvements Planned
by Rockefeller.

It developed recently that John d.
Rockefeller, in purchasing nearly all
the land in Pocantico Hills, East view
and Hawthorne for series OF parks, is
planning a chain of artificial lakes to
be formed by the historic Sleepy Hol-
low brook which runs through his vast
domain in Westminster county, n. \.
Several waterfalls have been construct
ed along the brook, says the New YORK
Press. He intends to spend more than
S2OO. 900 on this work.
Five miles of private boulevards
through his parks are now being lald
ont. while Buttermilk hill, which he
recently bought, will be lighted by hun
dreds of electric lights. On the summit
of the hill the millionaire proposes TO
erect an observatory tower fifty feet
high, so that he can have an unoD-
structed view of the Hudson river ana
Long Island sound for miles.
Another improvement planned by MT
Rockefeller is the construction OF a
grand plaza on the brow of Kykuit hill
near where he will build his new $780,
900 mansion during the coming spring
and several large Conservatives.

area and computed that 1t had killed
between 10000 and 10000 people DUR
ing the last year or two. Its v1rulence
is also increasing. The length of the
attack varies from one to six months,
and it is invariably fatal. He classes
it with hydrophobia in hopeiessness. 1t

A GIRL SOCIALIST.
Philadelphia Woman Startles So
ciety by Her Views.


The tendency of Miss Caroline Penn
berton of Philadelphia to discuss So
Geological problems and sympathize
with the movements having for their
object the adjustment of conditions af-
fecting the classes has attracted much
attention among fashionable folk, says
the New York Herald. She is the elder
daughter of Henry Pemberton, who is
prominent in the best society of Phila-
delphia.
A lecture on THE Coming Revolu-
ton" was to have been delivered a few
days ago by Miss Pemberton. She was
prevented from doing so by severe i'll
ness" Miss PembertOn's father has
expressed regret at the tendencies de-
veloped by his daughter.
Here are some quotations from Miss
Pemberton's article on How Became
q Socialist"
'All the men Of my family had been
strong Republicans, and l had been
brought up to believe in the Republican
party as Catholic believes in his
church.

contribute occasional letters and news

zone of these published letters was
answered by a socialist, who pointed
out the overwhelming power of wealth,
the plutocratic nature Of our govern
ment, and suggested that study Of So
cialism would throw light on the polit-
ical situation.

Fabian Essays Here were a light

"All this time knew not a single So
cialist to speak to or even by sight.
began to feel that l was only a social
list 'on paper and that must find some
real live socialists somewhere and see
what they were like. So l started out
one day to hunt up the Socialist party
Of Philadelphia. 1t was hard work
finding it, but found it at last and saw
that it was made up of people, real PEG
pie, working people, and since that day

them than 1 ever could learn from

The train crew tried to fight the

Will Refuse TO PAY Cuban Taxes.

a dispatch from Havana says that
Americans residing in the Isle OF
Pines deny the general assumption OF
the Cuban government that the Unit
ed States has no special interests in
the island and believe it is not likely
TO insist on the eventual ownership OF
it. They seem confident of having the
support of the United States, if neces s.
sary, in their resistance to being gov
erned and taxed by Cuban officials,
pending settlement of the question
of the ownership of the island.
