Impression That They Are Tuneless
Is a Mistake.


There is general impression that
there are no song birds in the Bermu-
das." said Frank A. Meade of Los An
geies. Il spent an autumn there, and
can give few facts about some of the
native birds. The native birds of Ber-
muda are the red bird Cardinals pu-
bra). bluebird, hooking bird, ground
dove, kingfsher and chick of the viii
lage. The redhird's song is between
MARBLE and a shrill whistle. The
chick of the village reminds one of the
English wren. It's sprightly note may
be heard at intervals through the
year The melody of the blue and
mocking birds are too familiar in Wis
consin to need Introduction. About
fifty kinds of birds, including mi
grants, have been observed. The mi
grant birds leave the coast OF Ameri-
ca early in the autumn in large fiocks
to seek southern ATTITUDES, and stop
at islands on the way to rest. The
most frequent visitors are golden
plover, sandpipers, snipes, owls and
eagles. "-Milwaukee Free Press.

In the outlying oil fields of Balakhan,
Romani, Sabunto and Bibiebat, from

stored has been destroyed.
Flood of Burning Oil.

was impossible to extinguish. A large
portion of the "Black Town" quarter
in which most of the refneries were
located was also burned The finan-
clal loss has not yet been estimated,
but 1t will run into the millions. 1t is
stated that the loss in crude oil which
will run waste until the reservoirs
can be rebuilt and the refineries
again started will amount to 100000

The bloodshed also has been appall-
Ing, as the troops in their efforts to re-

proaches to the town of Baku and
were forced to fight regular battle
with well armed natives in which ar
tillery was employed.
Thousands Are Killed.
The Tartars and Armenians finally
turned their weapons against each
other. All well-to-do inhabitants fed

FRUITFUL FURNACES
INTENSE HEAT PRODUCES
PRECIOUS STONES.
Scientists Have Succeeded In Pluck
ing Real Diamonds and Rubies from
the Crucible of the Furnace.

Recent advices from France state
that Prof. Moissan, the eminent sci
enlist and inventor, has actually sue
ceeded in making genuine diamonds
and rubies. He employs for this pur
pose the electric furnace, which has
been so improved that degree of
heat can be produced, approaching the
extreme temperatures. which were I'M
doubtedly factor in the formation of
minerals and gems in the interior of
the earth.
The rubies obtained are of large
size, weighing 10 or Is carats, and in
quality and color equal and even sur-
pass those found in the earth. The
natural forces attending the formation
of diamonds seem to have been more
complicated, and so far the diamonds
entists have been very small, but still
they are positively identified as the
carbon crystalline diamond. They
are remarkably clear and bright, and
on small scale as fine specimens as
natures own product.
The electric furnace has enriched
chemistry with whole series Of
new compounds. Probably the one Of
most value to mankind at large is Cal
cium Carbide. The simple applica-
ton of water to Calcium Carbide gen.
crates the gas Acetylene, which is
now being commonly used for light.

by children technically known in Eng

giving g lesson on the circulation Of
the blood. Trying to make the matter
clearer, he said: Now boys, if stood
on my head, the blood as you know,
would run into it, and I should turn
red in the face Yes, sir said the
boys. Now continued the teacher,

Other Vices and Privileges.
The advancement of woman by leaps
and bounds continues. First, we had
the womens clubs; then the women's
hotel, with bell girls and "lady" por-
tiers, and later the Woman's Down
town launching club. There is one
young woman living in the vicinity
of Madison square who is still ages
ahead the rest of her sex in the race
for equality with man. She wears
mems shoes, four-in-hand tie, and a
dress that is as near an approach to
a suit of clothes as the laws of dress
making will permit. She carries her
umbrella as man would his cane,
and her walk is close imitation Of
the Harvard strut. The other day one
who passes constantly through the
park on her way down town saw this
concrete example of advanced woman
hood sitting on a bench writing a
letter instead of reading the paper,
while she had her shoes shined. The

but that, fortunately was reserved for
a still more remote period Of feminine
development.-New York Post.
