SWIMMING POOL roo DEEP
eathers at Lake Harriet Find Deep
Spots

A correct impression of the depth of
the swimming pool at Lake Harriet was
not given out at the opening of the sea-
son and many people who are unable to
swim have narrowly escaped drowning
during the past two weeks. The water is
over nine feet deep half way to the board
fence, which keeps bathers from venturing
out into the lake. sre-ss M
Supt. w. NJ. Berry admitted yesterday
that the pool was too deep for any but
good swimmers. and he will. make pro-
visions at once to prevent any further
danger. A good swimmer will be on
watch all day and as an extra precaution
the guards may be instructed not to adj
nit persons to the pool who cannot swim.

\ VIxEN'S CHILDREN i
PARENTAL CARE OF A MOTHER
 FOX FOR HER CUBS.
Born in Captivity, They Were Studied by a Naturalist Change
 Brought by Family
 Cares.

Readers of my stories may remem- Der the story of "The Sprite," the little red fox which year ago took from it's home in a burrow at Tops field. Mass, and those who attended some of my lectures during the past winter will scarcely have forgotten the brighteyed, sharp -nosed, bushy- tailed little rascal which appeared with me on the platform, and whose silky lead they patted at the close of the evening. It may also be remem- bered that, after his mate was killed by the dogs Tn the fall, another mate was bought for him, and that both foxes were housed in a large wire cage in the garden
 Before the cold weather came, had erected, on the north and east sides of the cage, high wind-breaks, which sheltered the foxes from the bitterest of the storms. Tn the lee of these. wooden pen was placed, with two compartments, one near the ground and the other above it. The den they used chiefly as a playhouse. After chasing one another round the cage, seemingly in a game of tag, one of
 
 them would dart into the den, as though that were home" and the other would seldom pursue him into the upper compartment, and, coming to the door. would paw her mate play fully as he passed underneath. At other times they. would wrest1e to- gether in fun, and the one which was thrown down would be gently chewed, until it changed the subject by leap ing to his feet, and reversed the order of things. In short, they lived hap py, care-free lives, until few days ago, when family cares began to oc- cupy them both.
 On the 23d of March, the vixen be- came very restless, jumping in and out of both compartments of the den, attempting to burrow out Of the cage,

COL. REDFIELD DURYEE.
Career of a Han Who Enlisted in
 Army From Waterbury.

Colonel Redfeld Duryee, a brave Connecticut soldier, who died a few days ago. was born in the city of New York, May 19. 1841. His ancestors were Huguenots, and the founder of the family in this country was Joost (George) Duryee. who migrated hither in the ship "Gilded Otter" and settled in New Utrecht, Long Island The colonePs great grandfather, (Joseph Woodward), assisted ill establishing American independence, was impris- oned for while in the old sugar house in Liberty street, New York, and died in the prison ship Jersey New York harbor His grandfather, Jo- seph Woodyard Duryee, served during the war of 1912 in the Third New York artillery.

Domestic conditions were not as sat- isfactory last week as desired, says Banker Clews. The weather was un- favorable for agricultural operations, and the backwardness of the season is anything but stimulating to either merchants Or farmers. Still. a few days of bright sunshine would do much to better the situation in this respect
 In some departments of business a bet ter tone is reported, notably in the iron trade; in others more or less depression exists, especially in the textile indus tries. Operations extending into the future are, however, conducted with much care and prudence, because of uncertainty regarding crops, the cleo tions and general business. Railroad earnings are showing more frequent declines in gross, but an encouraging feature is the better results in net earn ings occasionally reported as growing out of recent outlays and improve ments. The outlook is for a fair trad ing market, with moderate fluctuations ill either direction. Just now the mar ket is exceptionally dull, owing to the lack of stimulating conditions and the distrust caused by litigation connected with the dissolution of the famous mer- ger. Gold exports are also accepted as an element of weakness, and as more gold is likely to go next week values closed with a declining tendency.

DIDN'T HOLD FAMILY PRAYERS.

It was at a certain church meeting and the good bishop was calling for reports. He had a rather stern, sharp manner. which sometimes jar red a little on the nerves of the more timid. By and by he came to Broth CT B.. lay delegate.
 Brother B. what is the spiritual condition of your church!' demanded the bishop briskly.
 q consider it good,' said the broth CT.
 "What makes you think it Is good P went on the bishop.
 .Well, the people are religious. That's what makes me think so.''
 What do you call religious? Do they have family prayer?"
 s'Some of them do and some do not. "
 "Do you mean to say that a man may be a Christian and not hold fam fly prayer9
 s'Yes sir; think so."

If the house of representatives goes on as it has begun, and the senate does not interfere, it looks as if many per sons in Washington who have been riding might have to walk in the near future says a Washington writer. The question recently brought up as to the number of horses and carriages used by civil servants and maintained at government expense has already brought out some interesting answers and explanations. By members of the district government alone nearly 300 horses are used, 222 of them being public animals maintained at cost of $44,000 @ year. Every person connect cd with the district administration who is able has at least one horse and car- riage. Each of the three commissions CTS has one, while the military mem Der of the board has two additional horses, and his two military assistants have two horses each. The assessor of the district has an automobile, while his assistants have four horses and carriages. Horses and carriages are provided also for other district off
 cials, among them being the disbursing officer, the harbor master, the property clerk and others whose duties would not seem to call for much travelling about the city. The president of the United States appears to be the person most badly treated in the distribution of carriages and horses. What he has in his stable are his personal property, with the exception of carriage and pair used by his secretaries in carrying messages to congress. The cabinet members each have horse and car riage; MT Knox, the attorney general
 has three additional vehicles and horses. Of course, 1t is necessary that certain officials of the government should have horses and carriages that they may perform the duties of their positions, and as to those there can be no possible objection. It is the abuse of the privilege that the house is now Investigating. Reports have been called for from all the cabinet officers, cover ing each department; but they have not yet been made-the question, according to rumor, cannot be answered onhand.
