A PATCHWORK CHURCH

< One part largely composed of the outer walls of the old Academy of Design, a second part the former rear wall of St. Patricks cathedral and a third part taken from the old A. T. Stewart mansion in Fifth avenue, the Church of Our Lady of1Lourdes, in l42d street, near Convent avenue, is a harmonious blending architecturally of the Venetian and perpendicular Gothic types.
 From the viewpoint of 142d street or from Convent avenue the edidce bears a striking resemblance to the Acade- my of Design building as it stood at Twenty-third street and Fourth ave- nue until few months ago. This was a happy conceit of the rector, the Rev. Joseph H. McMahon, who desired the practical transference of the pie turesque structure. Looking at the rear of the church from 143d street IL may easily be seen that the rear wall of St. Patrick's cathedral, almost as it appeared before removal to permit of the building of the new Lady chapel, has been rebuilt on the up town site.
 The Rev Father McMahon, in speaking recently of the utilization of the former buildings out of which to erect his new church, explained that it had been done to build pictur- esque edif1ce, at the same time having the economical end in mind. Father McMahon pointed out that the outer walls of his church above the hrst floor windows are built of marble that was formerly in the Stewart mansion, and that the handsomely carved neWel posts at either end or the broad steps to the entrance were formerly at the foot of the hand some staircase in A. T. Stewart's s house.
 ''The late Archbishop Corrigan gave us our rear wall, with its cathe- thedral windows and it's foliations, and the accompanying pinnacles. :" Father tMcMahon said Under the Hamilton Grange deed no school can be erected between 140th and l4otn streets until eight years from now. We have constructed this edifice so that at the end of that time floors may be put in and the building devoted to school purposes. Some of the iron girders and window frames we ob- tained from the Roman Catholic Or- plan Asylum, Madison avenue and Fiftieth street. Five hundred electric lights, in addition to the light of two electroliers that are to cost S3,2OO, VIII illuminate the church. There will pc fifty-fiye electric lights in the metal cornice that will finish the top or our walls "-Herald.

How the republican party leaders are praying that something will turn up to distract the minds of the public from this nasty postof1ce scandal. See how the Beirut incident was siezed upon to take the minds of the people from the scandals cropping out in the administration of the affairs of govern ment. The Panama canal affair IS also being used to get the minds of the people from the rottenness of the de- parhrnents as administered by the re- publican party, but all in vain- Those btttle incidents are but the wonder or an hour, and the minds of the people wander back to their muttons. the scandals in the departments at Wash ington.

Philippine Tree-pwe,1er.

The Philippines may not boast of q wild man" just like the popular con- ception of the man from Borneo, but they contain tree dwellers quite as much ns does Borneo. Indeed, it is probable that the tree dwellers of northern Luzon are close kindred of the Dyaks of interior Borneo, who live above the ground. Tn both cases, those who find 1t advisable to live where they can drop rocks, sticks, etc, on invaders heads are offshoots of head hunting race It is true that the most thorough going head hunters of the Philippines, the Igorrotes of Bontoc, little province in the north central mountain chain of Luzon, live in houses built on the ground, but at their altitude few trees grow save mountain pines, and natural conditions have made them forget their tree dwell- ing habits generations ago. The Luzon tree dwellers live further down, on the eastern slope of the mountains, even down in the valley of the Rio Grande de Cagayan. They are cousins of the Bon- toe Igorrotes. and doubtless cousins, longer separated, of the Borneo Dyaks. IN Y Trihrna

Among the many canine qualities worthy of imitation, lover of the -four footed brothers" emphasizes their contented resignation to the cir cumstances of life. Dogs, he says, do not go about trying to do good to other dogs by urging them to bark in the same key and bite with the same tooth as themselves; nor, which is a merciful provision of nature, do they become bored by the people with whom their lot is cast and want to try new master every few months. Whatever the disadvantages of their homes may be, they stand by them and make a cheerful best or it.

BIRDS IN UTAH PENIrENT1ARY

Mllrderers' row in the state pen1- tentiaa.y has been cast into the depuns of gloom. It is all because blrd of bad omen has taken up an unDadden home in that quarter, bringing with IL, as the prisoners believe. the shadow of death.
 A few months ago two small black birds were captured by a life prisoner and given to one of the men in Mur- derers' row. The birds were fed by the prisoners and became pets. They spent all their time hobbling about the cells and chattering and eating from the prisoners plates. For months these birds furnished amusement and means of pastime for five condemned men. A few days ago the birds for. sock murderers' row. it is said, and made friends with two burglars, who are serving comparatively short terms. Almost amy day the birds may be seen sitting on the shoulders of the burglars while they are doing their work about the prison.
 The birds were missed by those on murderers' row. but no significance was a,htached to their disappearance until a few days ago, when mourning dove few inbo that part of the prison and pearched upon the bars of the row. There it sat and cooed until the prison rang with its dirge. Since then tho bird has remained in the row, and day and night the ears of the condemned men have been greeted by its dismal song. The appearance of the bird, 1t is said, was looked upon by the mur- derers' as sign of evil, and one of them is said to have remarked that bad luck was surely coming to some one in the row. As if in fuIfllment of this, the word came that Nick Ha- worth had been denied a new trial and must die. Then came the uneX- pected news to Mortensen that he had been denied another chance for his life, and that he, too, must face the execUtioner
 The bird still coos and each of the other three condemned men is waiting in anxious fear to hear what evil is coming to them.
