Peculiar Condition in Which Wealthy

A curious story comes from Russia
about man who sold his head. ABOUT
the year 1865 there lived a nah at
Keff with an enormous head. A Rus
sian scientist, Prof. Walker, in order
to secure the head for scientific pur-1
poses, bought it from its possessor for
500 roubles. The condition of sale
was that it should only be delivered
after the mans decease; but when
the transaction got abroad great
scandal was created. The professor,
however, stuck to his bargain, and the
big head applied itself to business.
Fortune smiled on the latter; he fell
heir to a big fortune, and then he
began to feel uncomfortable at the
thought that the head belonged to an

STATISTICS or NIGHT HERoNs
They Are Sought by the Smithsonian
institution

Eight hundred night herons are wan.
dering free about the United States,
each wearing on one leg an aluminium
band inscribed Smithsonian Institu-
ton" and a number. If any person
shoots one of these birds he should
write to Paul Bartsch, biologist of the
Smithsonian, telling where it was and
how large was the bird. The night
heron is one of the most beautiful
of the aquatic birds of America, but
scientists know less about it than they
are satisfied with Last year Mr.
Bartscn discovered several breeding
places Of these birds on the Potomac
in the District of Columbia. Recently
he visited the place with several as
sistants in the night and the 800
aluminium bands were fastened to the
legs of as many young herons. Science
is anxious to know how long the night
heron lives, where it spends the win
tiers and how much of the country it
covers in it's wanderings. 1t is be-
lieved that by the time few OF the
numbered aluminium bands have been
reported some of these facts will have
been established to the satisfaction OF

Billiard PLAYERS.

The game of billiards has grown in
popularity of late with the fair sex.
According to Shakespeare, Cleopatra
played billiards with her favorite,
Charmion in the year 80 B. G. At
present the best women players are
the French, who frequent professional
games and eagerly follow the billiard
news of the day. Patti is fond of the
game and had a table made in this
country to take to her Welsh castle,
for which she paid $4,000. Among
American billiard players of repute
are Mrs. George Gould, Mrs. Edwin
Gould, Mrs. Almeric Paget, Mrs.
Burke Roche and Lillian Russell Bill
