THE SPEED OF sToRKs.
Evidence That They Can Fly at Rate
of 100 Miles an Hour for Many Hours.

rom the New YORK sun.
No living thing, not even a scared jack
rabbit, can travel with the speed displayed
by such birds as the stork and the northern
bluethroat. Not only do, these birds fly
with speed which can hardly be con-
ceived, but they keep up their rapid flight
for one or two thousand miles at a stretch
without apparently firing.
Evidence has been collected recently
which shows that the biuethroat fies from
Central Africa to the shores of the North
sea, distance OF 1 500 miles, in less than
a day and night, and making it. more
over, in enc uninterrupted flight.
The storks, which spend their summers
in Austr:a-Hungary and their winters in
India and Central Africa, are also marvel
Gus travellers, and make their Journeys

time.
From Budapest in Hungary. to Lahore.
in India Is about 2, 400 miles in an air line,
and the storks make the journey in TWEEN
ty-four hours, thus travelling at the rate
of 100 miles an hour for the whole distance.
The storks which spend the summer In
Central Irope and the winter in Central
Africa travel with the same rapidity
Slatin Pasha, Austrian in the service
of the khedive, and now governor of the
Central African province of Darfur. was
for many years a captive in the hands
of the Mahdi and the Khalifa when the
dervishes killed Gordon and established
their empire. now overthrown in the Sou
dan. One day, at Omdurman, he saw a
stork with metal band attached to one
of it's legs. He caught the bird and found
engraved upon the band the name of an
old friend in Austria.
He wrote note to his friend and lied
it to the metal band When the stork re-
turned to Austria for the summer the
friend the letter, caught the stork
and read the message, which was the Fl st
certain assurance that the outside world
received that Slatin was still alive
This stork, as was proved by the dates
made the journey from Omdurman to the
Austrian country place distance of near
ly 5000 miles, at a speed of more than 100

Danger in Shellfsh.

From Harper's Weekly
AS result of recent agitation over the
communfcability or disease by shellfish
taken from waters polluted by sewerage
there have been numerous Investigations OF
the subject BY Biologists in Europe and the
United States. The last report of the Brit
tsh royal commission sewerage disposal
considers in detail the progress made in
recent Investigations, and states that there
is no doubt that many cases of typhoid
fever, as well as other diseases are caused
by eating shelifish obtained from waters
contaminated by sewerage So serious was
the evil, in the opinion of the commis Siaa
that the only satisfactory method of coping
with il was to confer on some competent
authority absolute jurisdiction over tidal
waters from which were taken sheliiish for
human food, in order that no suppl. es
whatsoever should be derived from polluted
waters. The commission also realized that
some definite standard of purity must be
established as they were able to find bacil-
lus coli. which Is considered to indicate the
presence of human pollution, in nearly all
of 600 oysters which were examined bac-
teriologically. As many of these specimens
came from waters known to be very pure,
1t presented a difficulty which will require
further research to remove 1t has. how
ever been demonstrated that shellfish
should not be grown. stored or fattened in
water to which any possible pollution may
come
