ELECTRIC "WHIP" A SUCCESS.
New Device Tested at Chicago ana
BaIEy Horses Cease to BE
stubborn.

An electric whip the invention of j.
A. Giles, of Elberon. Ga, was given
successful test at the stock yards at
Chicago the other morning. Mr.. Giles
device consists essentially of a small
battery, which is placed in the wagon
and from which wires run along the
shafts to small copper plates fixed in
the saddles of the harness. When it is
desired to spur the animals to greater
effort it is only necessary to touch a
button and every horse feels the shock
at the same instant.
II is Mr.. Giles idea that the invention
will work perfectly on teams containing
a number of horses when it is desired
to have them all start at the same mo-
ment, and he contends that it will be
found far superior to the ordinary whip,
which must be applied to each animal
separately.
The first test was made on horse
which the stable men had been unable to
drive for year The effect of the
whip" was instantaneous, the horse
being only too willing to travel. Other
tests were equally successful.

INSECTS ALWAYS IN DANGER.
Hardly N Single Group Which Does
Not suffer from Appetite of
Some Species of Bird.

There Is hardly single group Of In
sects which does not suffer from the ap-
petite OF one or more species OF bird.
says Nature The eggs and larvae are
dug and pried out of thsir burrows in
the wood by woodpeckers and creepers;
those underground are scratched and
clawed up to view by quail. partridges
and many sparrows; warblers and
vireoe scan every leaf and twig; fly
catchers, like the cat family Of NAM
mails, lie In wait and surprise the insects
ON the wing, more particularly those
flying near the ground, while swifts,
swallows and martins CLEAN harvest
from the host of high-fying insects.
When we think hummingbirds are taxi
ing dainty sips of honey from the flow
ers they are in reality more often
snatching minute spiders and flies from
the deep cups Of the calyxes. When
night falls the insects which have
chosen that time as the safer to carry
on the business of active life are bounced
on by crepuscular feathered beings; the
cavernous mouths of whip-poor-wills
engulf them as they rise from their hid
ing places and the bristles OF night
hawks brush them into no less rapacious
maws If perchance they have succeeded
In reaching the upper air.

FINDS BABY IS A NEGRO.
After Seven Years They Return IL to
Charities commissioners, Hut
Foster Mother Relents.

Seven years ago childless couple In
Brooklyn went to the charities commits
sioners and said they wanted to adopt
a baby which they could bring up as
their own. Some time later healthy
youngster was turned over to them after
adoption papers had been signed. In
time they realized that there was tinge
of negro blood in the babys veins. AS
the child grew older the evidence Of
negro blood became more and more ap-
parent. At last the couple decided to
return the child. They took 1t to the
charities department and told the whole
story to Deputy Commissioner Charles
E. Teale, with whom they left the child.
This was two weeks ago.
A few days later the foster mother
returned and said she could not part with
the child.
But you knew 1t was not white
child" said the deputy commissioner.
II can't help that" said the woman.
II want her back In spite Of her color"
The child was taken to her former

RULE WORKS BOTH WAYS.
II Costs to Go Into the Business of
Horse Racing and 1t Costs

E. r. Thomas, the owner of the horse
Hermis talked one day at Saratoga
about the expense of racing, says the
New York Tribune.
"a racing stable is like a newspaper"
he said "At the beginning it requires
a good deal of money You know
what Charles A. Dana used to say
about newspapers-that 1t costs a lot
to start them. but they would stop of
themselves? Well that is equally true
of racing stables. Only, as rule, even
to give stable up costs money.
"Once. when P. T. Barnum was TAX
ing tickets at the entrance of his cir
Gus, a man asked him if he could go
in without paying.
"'You can pay without going in,
said Barnum, but you can't go in
without paying. The rule doesn't work

"the rule does work both ways. II

he announces his intention TO initiate

ROYAL RULERS OF JAPAN.
Present Reign1ng House Dates Back
Six Centsries Before Opening
of Christian Era.

His majesty. Mutsuhito, or emperor,
and Edward VII, king of Great Brit
ain, are the two ideal prototypes of the
constitutional sovereign. Seated firm
ly as they are in the hearts of their
subjects, who should be surprised at
their evergrowing glory and popular
lty?
The mikado is of the long and I'M
broken line of 120 ancestors who sat
before him on the throne, which was
set up 600 years before the Christian
era, says Niroku Shinpo. Just think
of it, The oldest of the royal families
In Europe is that of Capet, which,
however, is comparatively young, as 1t
dates no further back than the ninth
century. And it remains now in the
Partisan society as a rare relic Of a
bygone royal family. The Savoy, the
Brunswick, the Baden. and so forth.
go back only to the eleventh century.
But our imperial line, as already men,
TONED, started long before the battle
of Marathon was recorded, long be-
fore the songs of Homer were recited.
Since then no foreign conqueror ever
set foot on the soil of Japan.

A FEW CANNIBAL BIRDS.
Some Fenfbered Creatures That Prey
on Their FelIows-Duck Hawks
Are Worst Offenders.

The most unpleasant items on the
bill Of fare OF the bird kingdom are
birds themselves, writes naturalist.
The most systematic cannibal among
birds is the peregrine falcon, or duck
hawk, and where birds are abundant
this fasudious gourmand merely eats
the flesh of the head and neck and
eyes Of each victim, leaving the re-
mainder OF the body untouched Oc-
casionally, as among other animals
bird of strictly vegetarian habits will
attack another bird. even one Of it's own
kind. and kill and eat It in the most
matter of fact way.
Perhaps every order Of the higher
warm blooded animals may be in
cluded in the list, from the sloth,
which mutely resigns itself to the ter
rfbls grip Of harry eagle, to the
human child, powerless before the at
tack OF some bird of prey frenzied
with hunger. In certain districts
eagles and hawks have been shot
smelling strongly of skunk, but
whether that fearless animal really
