FOUND DEAD ON TOP OF CAR.
LifeIess Body Of Unidentified Man
Taken From Roof Of Mail Train.

Taken From Roof Of Mail Train.
New York, Sept. 10.-While passeng-
ers were alighting from the Chicago
limited train. which arrived at the
Grand Central station yesterday, the
lifeess body of a young man, with his
head crushed, was found lying on the
room of mail car. One arm was
clasped around ventilator, and the
roof. 1t is supposed that the young
man was stealing a ride, and that he
was struck by one of the low bridges
along the line.
A letter signed by Paul Nanke Of
this city recommending "A. Jacobson
as dentist was the only clue to the
mans identity. There was nothing to
indicate where he had boarded tl,4
train or how far the lifeless body had
been carried on the swiftly moving
train.
The body was later identified as
that of Abraham jacobson, son of a
neckwear dealer of this city.

IRELkND'S ANIMALS.
Species of Frogs and TOadS Arr
Found In the Green Isle.

Species of Frogs and TOadS Arc
Found In the Green Isle.
1t is not correct to say that there are
no frogs or toadS in Ireland. though it
is very remarkable that The common
toad is not found there. The natterjack
toad is a native of Kerry. though it
does not appear to be found elsewhere.
1t is an example of the mania which
some people have for meddling with
nature that Or. Guithers i'll 1899 took
the trouble to procure frogs spawn
from England. since which time they
have multiplied iii Ireland. But the
common lizard is found in many parts
of the island. The SlowWOrm is not.
Though the common toad and till re-
cent times the frog were not found in
Ireland. it is worth remembering that
the English reptiles and batrachans
are very local in their distribution. The
nattcrjack toad is only found in certain
counties. The edible frog WAS formerly
only found in FOulmire Fen. in Cam
bridgeShire. and the sand lizard is most
capriciOus i'll the choice of a home. The
beautiful green lacertH" which Gil
bert White saw on the sunny banks
near Farnham are to be found there
still, the males being of the green color,
and also near BOurnemouth and in
Dorsctshire beyond Poole HarbOr. Yet
there are many suitable places where
none are seen. and then they reappear
again on some sandhillS on the coast of
Lancashire, near Southport.
On the other hand, the absence of
many species in Ireland which are or
were commonly found in the larger is
land can only be explained on the sup
position that they never reached the
country. Among these are the wildcat
marten was always plentiful on the
other side of st. Georges channel. and
stoatS abound in the west. Five of the
fourteen species Of bat found in Eng
land have not been taken in Ireland.
neither is the common shrew found
there or the water shrew or the mole,
though the last is found in Anglesey.
Only six of the fifteen British rodents
are found in Ireland. and Of these one
the squirrel. was probably introduced.
Neither is the roe deer indigenous. In
support of the general theory that the
immigration of the English fauna was
difficult in the earlier periods and sub
sequently checked altogether may be
cited the analogous instance of the Isle
of Man. There. as in Ireland. there are
no mOles. no snakes and no tOads.-

CHANGE IN SYSTEM
Tri-City Railway Company May
Substitute Hot Water Heat
for Electricity.
SAID TO BE LESS EXPENSIVE
And to be More Satisfactory in
Warming of Carlo Give
Ii Trial.

y change in the system of heating
its cars is contemplated by the Tri-
City Railway company. The plan Is
TO substitute hot water for electricity.
This i 10 apply only TO the Bridge
line equipment and the new double
truckers. The old cars are warmed
by stoves. ~ the latter are to be re-
tired As rapidly as the company can
replace them with the bigger type, it
would be- a useless expense to make
any change as to them. They are
small and the coal stoves that are
stationed in the center of each will
continue 10 do satisfactory service
during the cold periods.
Railway companies in many of the
larger cities nave discovered that hot
water has numerous advantages over
electricity. The main feature is the
cost. Too. "A stcadicr heat j. furnish

The Tri-City Railway company. ever
ready to adopt any modern appliance
that will add 70 the comfort of its
patrons. has accordingly determined
to give the hot water trial. One Of
the doUblc-trUcEcrS is being fitted ont
with the new arrangement at the
Fifth avenue shops. ~ soon as the
new heating apparatus is installed

them.

Schriver he expected 10 see the whole
deal exposed. although he did not say
that he was afraid il would be, as
Schriver stated.
Ellen stated that Salisbury. about
week before his reelection as city at
torney. appreciated him and sought his
vote, telling him that he would give
him a second $500 for his support.
This second offer Ellen declared he
twice refused. He stated that he never
talked to Salisbury about the way he
would testify before the grand jury;
that he never concluded to vote for the
water deal and that he did not accept
the 5000 with corrupt intent
