WILD TURKEYS ARE
ALMOST EXTINCT
Sylvester D. Judd, of the Biological
Survey, Has Issued Bulletin
on Game Conditions.

Sylvester d. Judd, Of the Biological
Survey. has just written. and had is
sued from the Government Printing
Office, most interesting bulletin on the
grouse and wild turkeys of the United
States.
The bulletin is handsomely illustrat-
ed with pictures of the various birds
discussed by Mr.. Judd.
According to this interesting work,
wild turkeys, once common over ev-
cry part of the United States, and so
plentiful around Boston during early
colonial days that they sold for six
cents apiece. are today extinct in New
England. nearing determination in the
Middle States. and far from common in
the Middle West. In New Mexico they
are met in greatest abundance. wagon
loads being shot during certain sea-
sons
He states further that there are
twelve species of grouse in the United
States, ranging from the heath hen.
once common in New England. but now
confined to Marthas Vineyard. to the
sage cock of the Great Basin, which
is almost as large as a turkey.

MINISTER READY TO DIE
At ADVANCED AGE
Fought Six Months Against Death
That He Might Live
Century.

PORTLAND. Me. Dec. 27.-The Rev.
Clarkson Goud. the oldest man in
Maine. rounded out the hundredth year
of his life yesterday after n remark
able six months struggle against i'll
ness and old age, during which he lived
on his nerve, buoyed up by the hope
of completing his century. His Won
derfuI courage, which sustained him
through the siege Of disease, made il
possible for him to hold a big recep-
ton on his birthday, and. although
physically unable, he personally re-
ceived congratulations of several hun
dred friends and made a little speech
in the vestry of the Free Baptist
Church.
Mr. Goud. who is an Adventist
preacher, began to fail six months ago.
To his friends he said: 81 am going to
make the hundred mark if the Lord
wills and there is a nerve left in my
Body" Physicians shook their heads.
but the aged man had supreme faith in
the Lords willingness TO let him live
and struggled on. As the time approach
ed he counted the days and when the
morning of his birthday dawned he
clapped his hands and exclaimed: Thy
will be done; now I can die happy.
do not want TO live any longer"

BALTIMORE. Md, Dec. 27.-Members
of the Phoenix Club had an opportunity
last night TO listen 10 a lot OF quaint
epigrams and sayings delivered by Con
gressman Champ Clark of Missouri.
His lecture in the main treated of the
men who served in the Fifty-third Con-
gress. and his bursts of wit and shafts
of sarcasm were well received.
Among other things he said:
The House of Representatives is noted
for its brains and not for its manners.
II YOU want manners you Will have to
go to the Senate.
We have only had three men in the
White House who were noted for their
deep learning. They were John Quincy
Adams, Jefferson, and Garfield. 1t is just
a possibility that Mr.. Roosevelt may
squeeze in with this illustrious trio.
He knows a little about more things
than any prominent public man 1 have
ever known.
Tom Reed lowered like King Saul
above his contemporaries; but he went
to his grave filled with chagrin at mis-
defeat for President Reed didn't mind
Joking of his personal appearance. He
once said no gentleman ever weighed
more than 200, though he himself weigh
ed 360
Reed had the qualities of a rasp. n
Damascus blade, and a bludgeon- The
awful things he said kept him from be-
ing President.

LONDON, Dec. 27.-The British ad-
miralty has not been long in taking
official cognizance of the new German
naval program. Orders have just been
received at Portsmouth for the building
slip there to be heightened, while the
two largest drydocks in the dockyards
are to be extended These measures are
preliminary to the laying down of
battleship of at least 10000 tons dis
placement-a direct reply to the latest
scheme Of the German admiralty.
The war office also has just been

fecting the defenses of the River Tay

treated merely as a training ground for

Reed said of Springer that the latter
man opened his mouth without sub
tracing from the fountain OF human
knowledge.
The chaplains of House and Senate
for years were blind, and it seemed
at times a sort of the blind leading the
blind. But they had the good sense
to make short prayers.

States Senate was a public nuisance,

.PHONOGRAPH TOOK
PLACE OF ORCHESTRA
Police Forbade Instrumental Music Re-
cause Wedding festivities Were
to Last Till Morning.

TRENTON, N J., Dec. 27.-Abe Har-
ris, of South Warren street, opened his
house Sunday for a party to see Miss
Lena Herschfeld and Isaac Basch mar
ried. Harris and his guests were great
IL disappointed because a phonograph
took the place of an orchestra for the
wedding music.
Early last week Harris applied to the
police for permission to have an orches-
ira at the reception, and his request
was granted. Later the order was re-
voked, the police learning that there
was to be dancing and that the festivi-
ties would keep up until after mid
night.
The phonograph selections were ''Ev-
erybody Works But Father, Good
BY. Hiram Keep Cozy Corner in
Your Heart for Me" In Dear Old
Georgia" Would You Care II l Should
Leave You" and others.
Mr. and Mrs Basch left for the South
early this morning amid a shower of

PENSION employees
DRAWING PENSIONS
Form Twenty-six Per Cent
of Total Force.
MOST CIVIL WAR VETERANS
Others Are Widows, Spanish American
Fighters, and Invalided Regulars,
Many Drawing Good Pay.

The latest statistics made public Of
the service at the Pension Office show
that 2e per cent of those on the pay
roll are pensioners of Uncle Sam
These pensioners are divided into four
classes, showing the number of re-
spective veterans of the war of the
rebellion, widows of soldiers. Spanish
American war veterans, and regulars
invalided since the war Of the rebel
lion, but not war heroes.
Number of Each Class.
OF the first class. the records show
that 3S7 soldiers OF the civil war are
employed at the bureau. and are regu-
iarly drawing a monthly pension for
wounds received in action or being
otherwise become disabled. Thirty
eight widows of soldiers are classed
among the pensioners. Fifteen are vet
Grams Of the Spanish-American war,
and the same number are entered as
having been pensioned from the regu-
lar army since the war of the rebellion,
but. though, without actual experience

Total Stationary.
In the estimAtes for appropriation
for the coming year. Commissioner War
ner estimated for salaries for 1,709 en-
ployes. Out of these LOO, which in
cludes from the commissioner down to
charwomen, 455 are said to be pen
sioners- This number neither has de-
creased or increased to any extent dur
ing the last two years, and, so far as
can be learned, has remained at, OF
around those numbers, for nearly a
decade.
The amount of pension these pension
crS draw varies from SO to S46 per
month. These invalids, however, draw
salaries from the Pension Office, rang
ing from $l20 to 1900 a year, and as a
whole are among those who do not
apply for or consume their annual
thirty day sick leave with pay"
