Artificial Nest for Birds.
a Correspondence London Express

Geneva Correspondence London Express
A year and a half ago the municipality of
Orbe, in the Canton of Vaud placed arti-
fetal nests in the threes throughout the
district in order to protect and preserve in
sect eating birds in the locality
The branches of the trees were studded
with sharp nails to prevent access to the
nests by the birds enemies.
Blaekbirds and thrushes were the first
to show their appreciation of the facilities
provided. and their example was soon fol-
lowed by other members of the feathered
tribe.
The artificial nests are closely initiated
from the originals, and a Swiss naturalist
conducts the new industry, which is in the
hands of women

Robert Hargous died last Friday evening
at the Chateau Frontenac. Quebec, after
spending a year and a half in the Adiron-
lacks attempting to recover his health. He
was born in New York fifty-four years ago
and was the only son of Louis Hargous,
who served through the Mexican war on the
staff of Gen. Worth, being at the time a
banker in Mexico City.
A man giving his name as Roger f. Britt
about twenty-five years old committed sui
eide at jamestown, n. Y. some time dur

that he intended to commit suicide and re-
questing that no effort be made to find his

Curiosities of Suicide.

From the New Orleans Bicayune.
Suicide is peculiar thing" remarked the
veteran police reporter, land l have al
ways found it interesting to study the vari-
Gus methods employed by those seeking
self-destruction. The more ! think of the
thing the more | am convinced that suicide
is committed during a temporary derange-
ment of the mind. I'll tell you why l
think this way. During my career l have
reported any number of suicides. All meth
ods-poison, shooting hanging, throat-cut-
ting and drowning-have been employed. 1t
is with this last method that l want to
deal. After closely studying the PROPOSE
ton | have found that in majority of the
cases where drowning was employed the
suicide has repented almost as soon as he
struck the water. There can be but one
explanation of this, and that Is that the
cold water, the contact with it, restores
the reason to the one seeking self-destruc-
ton, and he Immediately repents. In nine
cases out of ten, however, the repentance
comes too late, and the suicide dies against
his will. When pistol iS employed and
correctly used there is no chance for re
consideration of the act. The same can
be said of pofsons-although l have known
Of a number of cases where, after the poi
son has been taken, the person repents and
calls for help. Those suicides who have
adopted drowning as the method of self
destruction always Interested me, and |
have studied out the matter. / make 1t a
point always to ask when covering one OF
these cases, whether or not the suicide has
called for help after striking the water: in
nine out of ten cases 1t was reported that
he had. Hanging, when correctly employed,
is fatally effective. After a man has add
justed the strap or rope and kicked the
chair from beneath him there is absolutely
no chance on earth for him to reconsider
OF course, l couldn't say positively whether
these dead men have had regrets upon
feeling the moose tighten about their necks.
but l believe that in good many cases
they have. However, there is no recourse
for them, and death is the result. Suicides
have always interested me- and look upon
them with something of awe"

How to Thread Bead Necklaces.
From the London Mall.

From the London Mail
Women are rethreading the old bead nack-
laees they have found boarded in their jesw-
eiry cases and are separating each coIored
bead by narrow one of sparkling crystal
What to thread the necklace upon is a
nlooted point. Do not be inveigled by those
who tell you that waxed thread Is salts
factory for the purpose into giving the
story credit. For beads that are In the least
heavy it is most unsatisfactory and leads
to a breakage after the necklace has been
worn once or twice.
The best threading medium TO choose is a
violin string, and II the e. string be
asked for 1t will be found fine enough and
sufficiently strong to sutt an purposes.

ADMIRAL'S CAPTURE

Toxic, June 3.-rorpedo boat de.
stroyers which have returned to sa-
sebo furnish details Of the capture Of
Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky. The de-
stroyers Kasumi, Usugumo, Sazanami
and Kageru were ordered to attack the
Russian war ships the night Of May
eth, and were steaming ahead when
they suddenly encountered o number
of Russian ships. The Kasumi narrow
ly avoided collision with q Russian
cruiser, the closeness OF which seems
TO have saved the destroyers from be-
ing damaged by the heavy fire which
the Russians directed on them. Dur.
ing the Russian attack the vessels
forming the destroyer Hotilla divided.
The Sazanami and Kageru continued
the search for Russian ships through.
out the night and in the morning dis.
covered two torpedo boat destroyers.
One Of them steamed away, but the
other was unable to do SO. On APP
preaching the latter the Japanese dis
cerned white flag flying from the
foremost and the Red Cross flag astern.
She proved to be the Bedovi, with Ad-
miral Rojestvensky and his staff on
board. The Bedovi signaled that her
engines were damaged and that she
was short Of coal and water. An arm.
ed guard was sent on board the Bedoyi
to receive her surrender. The Russians
requested the japanese not to remove
Admiral Rojestvensky and the other
officers on account Of their wounds,
and the Japanese complied, with the
understanding that the guard would
execute Rojestvensky In the event Of
delay leading to a meeting with Rus
sian ships, thus running the danger
of his recapture, The Sazanami ran
line to the Bedovi and began towing
her. The line parted twice. In the
morning the Sazanami met the Jap.
anese cruiser Akashi, which conveyed
the two destroyers to Sasebo. Dur
ing the trip the destroyers encounter
cd heavy seas and their decks wero
awash during part of the time.
