Animals Wanderings,

The fable Of the country mouse and
the town mouse has a foundation in
fact. says London Answers. Mice oc-
casionally migrate in large numbers
when food grows scarce, and travel
considerable distances to fresh houses.
Farmers in part of Perthshire had a
good reason to become aware of this
fact when, a couple of years ago, vast
swarms of mice invaded their corn
fields at harvest time.
But the mouse only travels when it
has to. The rat, on the contrary,
seems to take yearly outing. in very
much the same fashion as do human
beings Rats are the most migratory
creatures In the world. Whole troops
of rats leave the towns at the end of
summer and spend month or two in
the country, apparently in order to en-
Joy the change of food which the
country affords at that time of the
year in the way of fresh fruit and
grain. Before the cold weather sets
in they are back in their old quar-
tiers.
helIueeT migrate WIFI the same
regularity as swallows. They move
south when winter sets in, but as
soon as ever the snow begins to melt
they travel steadily north, sometimes
for as much as 1000 miles.
To end holiday by deliberate sui
eide is so strange a phenomenon that
for long time naturalists looked
upon the stories Of the migration Of
the jennings as an improbable fic-
ton. Yet the facts are beyond dis
pute. At irregular intervals these rat
like creatures start out from their
homes in the businesses of northern
Scandinavia in huge droves, number
ing tens of thousands, and travel
steadily southwark. Death pursues
them in hundred forms. Hawks and
other birds of prey hover above them.
Thousands are drowned in rivers. Yet
the rest struggle on until they reach
the sea. They do not stop. They
plunge in, swim out and struggle on
until their last strength fails, and they
drown. Not one ever returns from
this journey of death.

rmation.-One thorough going
transformed man in the community is
the greatest sermon that can be
preached, but that was not the great
purpose Of Christs coming to establish
righteousness through His example.
Some think that Christ came to reveal
God, but that Is not all. If you are q
sinner your only escape Is in hiding,
and If you cannot hide you cannot
escape. If you cannot escape then
your only chance Is in Jesus Christ

GoRKY MAJ YET BE PRIs0NEB.
If Released He Has Been Compelled to
e Leave Capital.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 3.-The report of
Maxim Gorky's release apparently eth
.er is incorrect, or, il true, he was re-
leased on the promise to leave St. Pc
tersburg' without the slightest delay
He had not returned home up to late
hour last night. The friend with whom
he lives, and who was permitted to
visit him yesterday afternoon for the
first time since his arrest, told the AS
sociated Press that he found the author
still in solitary confinement in the st.
Peter and st. Paul fortress. !
The novelist, whose real name is not
Maxim Gorky (Which is a pseudonym
meaning Maxim the Bitter''), but
Alexis Pyeshkoff, did not expect re-
lease for some time and did not know
whether he would be brought before the
court trial or deported by administra-
tive order. He philosophically proposed
to devote his period of Imprisonment to
learning the English language and rem
edying other deficiencies in his peas
ants education. He begged his friend
to procure text books of English and
German, natural sciences, etc. AT pres
ent he speaks only Russian.

REBUILDING OF NAVY.
Friendly Disposition Toward United
states in the Matter.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 2.--Midnight.-
The admiralty, having definitely COM
mitted itself to the policy of rebuilding
and greatly increasing the size of the
navy, although the detailed programme
has not yet been completed, is already
being besieged by foreign firms anxious
to secure contracts. These firms are
having little success, however, as only
a single French firm has thus far OBJ
tanned contract for a large ship. Sew
eral other contracts may be awarded;
but the admiralty has decided, instead
of placing contracts abroad to attract
foreign capital to Russia for the erec-
ton of new ships with the general pur-
pose of encouraging and creating vast
shipbuilding industry. at home, which
eventually will render the country COM
pletely Independent Of foreign builders.
In this matter the admiralty is display
ing a friendly disposition towards the
United States and there is reason to
believe that the admiralty already has
received an offer from American cap
italists who are willing to embark in
the enterprise on the condition of oh
tanning sufficiently large contract.
Charles M. Schwabs approaching visit
is believed to be directly connected
with this proposition.

TO HAND MRS. ROGERS POISON.
Attempt OF Bribe Son Of the Prison
Warden.

/ Windsor, VT, Feb. 2.--A letter con-
tanning $3.50 in bills and the promise of
a similar amount, if the instructions
contained therein should be obeyed,
was received recently by Harold Har-
pin, the son of the warden Of the state
prison here and who is employed as a
guard at the institution. The letter
was mailed from Boston, but the name
of the author cannot be learned. Guard
Harpin was informed in the letter that
if he should write to the author, giving
his promise to deliver to Mrs. Mary M.
Rogers, the convicted murderess, a
package of poison, the author Of the
letter would send $3.50 more in payment
for his services.
No poison was contained in the letter,
but the writer agreed to send a pack
age of poison to Harpin If the latter
was willing to undertake the commits
sion. Guard Harpin turned tn eletter
over to his father who in turn delivered
it to E. w. Oakes, the superintendent
of the prison. Superintendent Oakes
called the attention of Governor
Charles J. Bell to the matter and the
latter at once placed the letter in the
hands of the postal authorities. 1t
could not be learned tonight whether
any arrests had been made. r..

MANY CONTRACT LABORERS.
Large Percent of 1900 Steerage Pas
ts sengers Suspected.

New York, Feb. 2.-Of more than 1000
steerage passengers who arrived at this
port to-day on the Cunard line steam
ship Slayonia from Fiume, the immi-
grafton authorities suspect that a large
percentage came to this country as
contract laborers.
Five hundred of them have been held
for examination before the board of
special inquiry, the largest number
eyer held from a single steamship. OF
these $50 have already been examined
and ordered deported.
The authorities believe that many of
the new arrivals were destined for the
coal mines Of West Virginia and some
railroad contractors in Ohio. Attention
was attracted to the men by the fact
ssat groups Of ten or fifteen would give
.destination as some little town in
che mining region, and that

BILLIARD CHAMPIONSHIP.
Two Men Tied at End OF Third Days
- Play.

- Play.
Chicago, Feb. AIT the end of the
third days play in the amateur billiard
tournament for the national champion
ship, Charles F. Conklin of Chicago and
Wilson II. Sigourney of San Francisco
are tied FOR first honors, each having
won both games that he has participat-
ed in. J. F. Poggenburg Of New York,
present champion, is next high man,
having won one game and lost none,
but there is little likelihood that Pog-
genburg will return to finish and the
game that he played against Rein of
Chicago, according to the rules of the
tournament will, in that case, be
thrown out.
To-night's contest between Conklin
and Norris was one of the best games
SO far in the tournament. Conklin led
all the way. In the second inning he
made a run of SO and although Norris
played a fine game Canklin managed
to keep we'll in the lead up to the twen-
ty-seventh inning when Norris. who
was nearly 100 points behind, made a
run of &c. Norris followed this run with
another of Is. and was only % points
behind his opponent when he failed of
an easy shot. After that Conklin
again took control and ran out the
game in the S7th inning, the final score
being 800 to 262. Conklin's high run
was So, He also made another run of
SO in the game. His average was s
4-37. Norris average was Z 3-S7.

Attitude Of the Road.
Among officers of the New York,
New Hartford railroad company con-
siderable fear is expressed that the ex-
listing movement involving the engin-
GERS and firemen of the company may
lead to strike of the latter. 80
The situation is of "a very peculiar
character. 1t does not involve any
questions of wages, hours Of work or
time or place of service, but is a ques-
lion of the attitude of the company to-
wards the engineers and firemens' or
ganizations.
The number of engineers employed
by the New York, New. Haven and
Hartford company is about 1,4O0, of
these about 1000 belong to the Brother.
hood of Locomotive Engineers. About
$50 are non-union and about 250 still
belong to the Firemen's Brotherhood,
although promoted to be engineers.
They desire to remain in the Firemen's
Brotherhood partly on account OF its
financial condition and also because of
special insurance benefits, as we'll as
for other reasons. The 250 engineers
and the brotherhood of Firemen be-
hind them demand that engineers still
remaining in the Firemen's Brother
hood also remain under the firemen's
rules in their relations to the company.
The company, on the other hand. says
that as they are actually engineers
they must be treated as such and come
under the engineers rule. The Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers, to.
which, as stated, about 1000 of the en-
gineers in the employ Of the corpora
tion belong, takes the conhpany's view
Of the matter. 1t also points out that
the effect of allowing the firemen when
promoted to engineers remaining un-
der the firemen's rules, must inevitably
by continuous promotion lead IN the
end to the complete absorption Of the
engineers organization into that a.
the locomotive firemen, As to this
point the position of the company is
that the two organizations should set
tie their own troubles among them
.sai4.es, ~sut nleanwhiie there is a eondi-
tion OF affairs which threatens a strike.
The locomotive engineers have offered
to leave the whole matter to arbitrae
tion, and it is hoped that the advice Of
higher officers of the two organizations
will avert trouble.
AS a result of the situation the feel
ing between the members of the two
brotherhoods is very intense and bit
ter, with the company brought IN, al
though practically as a third party.

New York, Feb. 2.-There will be no
strike on the Interborough Rapid
Transit company,s subway and eleyat-
ed lines. This decision was reached at
a conference to-day between General
Manager Hedley of the Interborough
company and representatives of the
employees. At the conclusion of the
conference it was announced that all
the demands of the men had been
granted, and that ON next Monday the
old trip schedule would be restored,
providing for six local and seven ex'
press trains in a days work in the
subway. This schedule will continue
in force until February 2S, when a
new schedule to be decided upon in
the meantime will go into effect. This
new schedule, according to an agree
ment reached at to-day's conference,
must contain provision for a salts
factory interval of rest for the motor
men between trips. This rest probably
will be of period of fifteen minutes
duration. IL
/ While the announcement OF satis-
factory adjustment of the difficulties
between the Interborough company
and its employees did not come entire
ly as a surprise, there was at least a
considerable feeling of unrest during
the day. After the long meeting of
workmen last night, when it was an
nounced that the employees would in
sist on every one of their demands be-
ing granted elaborate arrangements
were made by the police to meet any
emergency, and during the day six
thousand patrolmen were held in re-
haitian and the Bronx.
Just before going into conference
with General Manager Hedley, Presi-
dent Jencks of the Brotherhood of Loe
connective Engineers announced that
unless the company receded from its
position strike on all the subway and
elevated lines would be inevitable. AT
the end Of two hours and half Gen
eral Manager Hedley came from the
conference room with the announce
ment that all the differences between
the management and the men had been
satisfactorily adjusted, and that the
possibility Of any serious trouble for
the time at least had been obviated.
