The Tribune has recently received complaints
from many citizens against the deluge on the

when responding to hurry calls, through their
horses losing their footing on the impassabe
streets. At the headquarters of the Street Clean

the condition of the streets was denied. They
place the blame on the Tammany company,
which pays nothing to the city for its sprinl1ling
monopoly except to Commissioner Oakley for
water, which it secures at cut rates. The com

Three types at least are observa-
BILE in the south Of Ireland first,
the dark italian looking Celt, also
found in Devon;A secondly, theStall,
yellow haired Danish type, and,
thirdly, the aboriginal Aryan Of the
Volga, with red or auburn hair and
blue or. green eyes, who may also
be found in CORNWALL.
The dark aquiline type Of Wales
differs considerably from that OF the
Irish, and the Irish Language is near
er akin to Cornish than to Welsh.

A Ducai Practical Joke.

Duke Carl of Wurttemberg was
very fond of practical jokes in
his younger days. Once he called
at farmhouse and asked the farm
er's wife, who was churning, for a
glass of milk. She did not know
her visitor, but went away to fetch
the milk, when the duke seized a
cat which was lying near and threw
it, with ducat, into the churn.
When the old woman returned he
drank the milk and walked away.
A year later the same prince en-
tered the house in different dress
and again asked for a glass Of milk
and inquired whether some one
hadn't once secreted cat in her
churn. The farmers wife laughed
and said: II,
ooh, yes, and I wouldn't mind
him doing it again at the same
price,"
"What did you do with the but
ter you were churning then z"
"Oh, I sent it to the palace, where
they take all my stuff I" .,i,

THE ALASKAN MOOSE.
He Is the Greatest of All the Worlds
Horned Animals.

After all has been said about the
horns OF the worlds greatest horned
animals there IS positively none
that equals III imprcssivencss the gi-
gantic mass that crowns the head Of
a really big Alaskan moose. Take
them i'll stu, as Tie grclogists say,
on the head of their rightful owner,
and in length, breadth and thickness
they inspire in the mind of every H.
telligcnt human being feeling Of
genuine awe. | do not see how even
an intelligent dog or horse can be-
hold pair of seventy inch moose
antlcrs without being profoundly
impressed. The antlcr springs hori-
zontally from an upper corner Of
the head on Il stem Of solid bone
that is like the trunk of hickory
sapling. a foot or SO from the bur
it throws off toward the front
quite gratultoasly, as it were--two
or three big spears Of bone that are
Of much use i'll a fight. AS soon as
there is room for real development
the main stem 1lattens out into .un
enormous slab Of bone, perhaps two
inches in thickness, from twelve to
eighteen inches wide and from two
to three feet long. This is the "pal-
nation" and very appropriate
name it is, too, for in the center it is
followed like n human palm and
studded along its upper edge from
six to twelve fingers and thumbs of
solid bone.
In sheer exubcrance of strength
and excess Of horn material an Alas
kan moose antlcr occasionally
throws off from the lower surface Of
its palm, or it may be from the front
of the beam, big, rugged spur root
of bone, which always has an extra
imprcs sive effect on the beholder.
The largest antlcrs of Alaskan
moose are in the Field museum at
Chicago. They have spread of sew
enty-eight and half inches and
weigh ninety-three and half
pounds.-W. r. Hornaday in Scrib-
ner's Magazine.

pathetic LITTLE Dolls. /

Some Of the Indian women have
a very pathetic custom. When an
Indian girl dies her mother often
substitutes a: doll for the lost little
one. She fills the empty cradle
with feathers arranged in the. form
Of q. child, and carries this about
as she did cher child, grooming toiit
and caressing it, Sometimes, in
stead of doing this, she ties the
clothes, toys and other articles be-
longing to the little one, and fasten-
ing them to the Grad Is board carries
it as she originally did her child.
The Ojibways call these sunlncky
dolls, because they represent the
dead, but the Indian woman's idea
$is that the. little dead child lis too
small TO find its way; to paradise,
and that BY substituting the de 4

THE QUEER FILE FISH.
Apparently Dead, but a Very Wide
Awake, Hungry BivaIvc.

Perhaps the most extraordinary
light giving shelliish is the >pholas,
or file fish. 1t is biyalve; that is
to say, it has two shells, which are
open at both ends, and at each e1I
is cover which fits over the open
ing. The fish stays always in one
place, apparently without any life
or movement, but it is really a wide
awake, hungry creature. BY means
of the covers to its shells it can open
and close them just when it wants
to, and out of either opening it
thrusts twelve long, crooked hairy
arms in search of its prey. Eight
smaller arms are generally tucked
away inside the shell.
The pholas is found in all sorts
of situations-sometimcs at the bot
tom of the sea, sometimes hidden
away in Jumps of earth, sometimes
lodged, shell and all, in the heart
of the hardest marble, for the bor-
ing powers Of the fish are truly
marvellous.
If you take the pholas out Of its
shell it looks like soft, round pud-
ding, with no instrument for boring
into even the softest substances,
It's two teeth are SO placed as to be
useless for the purpose; so are the
covers to its shells. The imple-
ment which it uses is broad, feshy
foot, which issues from, one end or
other Of its shell, and it's method Of
boring suggested to the great en-
gineer,. Brunei, in 1914, the way to
make the Thames tunnel, and served
as a model for the machines used
in boring the Mont Ccnis tunnel.
The pholas works thus: Fixing
itself firmly by its powerful foot, it
uses it as center bit, around which
it makes the shell revolve; the soft
edges of the shell begin the per-
foration which is afterward enlarged
by the rasplike action of the rough
interior. Though constantly worn
down, it is replaced by new forma-
tion from the animal, so that it is
always kept in good condition for
boring.

No encouraging smiles followed this

how and why he made his inyesti
cations of water currents: but why
anybody 4 thousand miles away
should want to know how fas. the

could comprehend.
"Well, stranger, I reckon you'd

If you want to git out ct ALL, said No.

ton. There was no doubling the sim
cerity of the ultimatum. The geolo.

try line, when one Of the mountain
eers happened to cast his eyes on the
banjo.
What's that thiug2" he asked,
touching the instrument with his
toe. "D'you stick that down in the
water?"
Then Mangum had an idea. He
grabbed his beloved banjo and began
to play. The expression on the faces
OF the mountaineers was first one OF
wonder, then ee usse:snea pleasure.
The goologist now turned himself into
the freak = musician of college days.
Never before. he says. did he have so
much inspiration to do wonderful,
pleasing tricks. He pitched the banjo
In the air, playing on the strings
whenever It came down, and keeping
up the tune all the time.
Out Of the corner of his eye he
could already see the change 10 his
listeners. He played with h:s elbow,
he played with his hands reversed, !,
he almost was tempted to take OFF his
shoes and try to play with his toes.
Then he began to sing "Old Thomp.
aou Had an Old Gray Mule" and
that was the climax. The four tall
men never heard anything like that
befoge.
| . One Of them laid hold Of Mangum' g
satchel md the other three Of Mangum
himself. What they aaid TO him
made Mangum smile all across his
face, as they hurried him into the
woods. The things that happened
that evening-well, whatever happen.
ed, when Mangum emerged from the
woods to the high road next day he
was accompanied BY every raw.boned
mountaineer dwelling within 20 miles.
They crowded around and besoueht
