In connection with the report of Consul Cen
eral Bray from Melbourne that the English star
lngs introduced from Great Britain for the de-
struction of insects and protected by law, have
become pest to orchardsts, it is interesting to
note that similar conditions obtain in this coun-
try. few pairs were imported in 1892 and set
free Throughout the east they are now common
and. protected by law, they are rapidly spreading
over the country. The starting is black. streaked
with spots of gold and nearly the size of our
robin 1t is among the most beautiful and grace
full of orchard BIRDS walking on the ground in
stead of hopping. It's note is soft whistle The
starlings remain in this climate throughout the
winter Here as in Australia, they have not lived
up to thee lams made for them-that they de-
stroy worms and insects injurious to fruit-and
though they have not yet attained the numbers OF
the English sparrow they are already being called
hard names by fruit-growers.

Not little of the marvellous development OF
the United States is due to the thrift and general
Good citizenship of our Scandinavian immigrants.
A recent statement by Senator Knute Nelson OF
Minnesota illustrates the important part they
play: perhaps you do not realize the number OF
Norwegians who are in the United States. Scan
dinavan blood flows in the veins of 100000
people in this country. One-eighth OF the popu-
lation of Chicago is Scandinavian. Two million
people in the United States are Norwegian or OF
direct Norwegian parentage.

BERTELM MANN IN
JUDGE OOLE'S COURT

Bertelmann scored point in the
afternoon which was an important one
The prosecution had alleged that the
defendant had unlawfuIly represented
himself to be a Federal officer and as
persons named in the indictment. Yes
terday morning the prosecution at
tempted to put on testimony by other
witnesses not mentioned in the indict-
ment that the defendant had defraud-
ed others than those mentioned in the
indictment. To this the defense siren
uously objected The prosecution,
however, contended that the line of
evidence sought to be brought out was
part of the res gestae and further that
it showed intent. The defense took the
ground that intent was shown by the
act itself and needed no testimony to
prove il. and further that acts not
mentioned in the indictment were not
a part of the res gestae of the case
now before the court, and Furthermore
testimony concerning them would be
prejudicial to the defendant although
entirely immaterial as far as the pres
ent charges are concerned.
The argument lasted a good share
of the morning and part of the after
noon, but about half-past three Judge
Dole sustained the objection and the
government will now be shut out from
producing any testimony as to any acts
not specifically set up in the indict-
ment Straus and Mossrnan appear for
the defense and Assistant U. S. Dis
trict Attorney Dunno for the govern
ment.

MILITARY HOP ENJOYED.

The military hop given at the Moana
Hotel by the management on Monday
evening in honor of General S. S. Sum-
ner, U. S. A, and the officers and
ladies of the transport Logan, was a
very enjoyable function. Besides the
large number of army folk from the
troopship, the officers and ladies of
Camp Mckinley, and Captain Lyon and
officers from the Naval Station were
present. A number of townsfolk also
enjoyed the dance. Dancing was held
in the large dining room, the Moana
Quintet Club furnishing the music. The
dance was one of the most pleasant
ever held at the Moana.

One of the essentials of happy and
successful womanhood is that women
should be interesting. A dali, common

q pretty face and a good figure, but
notwithstanding her beauty people will
soon grow tired of her and seek other

unless she has both sympathy and in

A girl who has made herself familiar
with several fields of learning and who
has well disciplined mind may, not
always be able to talk brightly, but
she will knoV how to listen intelli-
gently. Better still. she will know when
to keep still, an invaluable bit OF
knowledge for woman.
Old people will find this girl charm

feel rested in her presence, and as for
her father and mother, they will be
repaid in her sweet, bright and useful
