FREAK HEN IS HALF DUCK

Special to The Herald.
DERBY, Conn.,, Feb. 1S.-Willimantic
people don't know whether Joseph Lus-
sier has a duck or a hen. The fowl
has the head of lusty pullet and a
few other characteristics of the hen
family, but it has the walk, posture
and many of the bodily features of
duck. 1t is eight months old. but hasn't
laid any eggs yet
Its tail Is short and stubby and its
legs and feet resemble those of duck,
except that the feet lack the web. 1t
utters a sound that seems to be
cross between the cackle of hen and
the quack of duck.
The freak fowl eats from the ground
like a duck and is an inordinate water
drinker, but never has attempted to
swim.

Special to The Herald.
BALTIMORE, Feb. 1S.-A proposition
to pass an cigarette law brought
the following from Health Commits
sioner Bosley:
"As rule. the great men of affairs
use the weed continually, and it seems
to have no ill effect upon their sys-
TENS. They are just as Intellectual,
their minds are just as active and with
all their smoking, they are capable of
solving momentous questions that arise
for their consideration.
THE youngsters will smoke and if
they are going to smoke anyhow why,
to my mind, the cigarette is the mild
est way in which they can use tobacco,
so long as they do not persist in inhal-
ing the smoke"
DR.. Llewellyn Barker, who succeeded
Osler at Johns Hopkins is also out in
a statement saying cigarette smoking
is the least injurious form of using to-
bacco.

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, Feb. 1S.-Governor
Pardee has been furnished by Attorney
General Webb with an opinion on GER
tain legal questions raised by the COM
plants of settlers on Tulare lake lands.
The latter claim they had been de-
prived of their rights and that the state

interest of a syndicate of spectators,
who, it is claimed, are the Santa Fe
officials, who have obtained patents to
10000 acres of the lands and also gold
assigned certificates of purchase for
$4,000 acres more.
In his opinion the attorney general
states that on the facts as reported to
him he knows of no law authorizing
the governor to withhold his signature
to patent presented in the usual way
by the surveyor general whose certifi-
cate shows that q trial of the issue
had been had before the superior court
and judgment rendered in favor Of the
applicant to purchase.
Before closing his opinion the attor-
ney general adds that If it can be
shown in any cases in which the char
acter of the land was not determined
by a judgment of court and the state
land department was imposed upon he
will consider 1t his duty to take APP
propriate action to obtain any redress
which may be available.

IMMORTALITY DOCTRINE
ESSENTIAL TO HAPPINESS
EVANGELIST IRELAND SAYS 1T
is PARAMOUNT
Faith in Christ Gives Victory Over the
Grave and Makes Christians Glor-
iousIy triumphant in the Presence
of Death

Rev. William Francis Ireland, the
converted actor, and evangelist,
preached on "The Resurrection of
Christ" at the Memorial Baptist church
yesterday morning. He said in part:
ut is an ever living Savior we love,
reverence and worship, not Gallleean
peasant, dead for two thousand years.
No, Jesus of Nazareth rose from the
dead OF this great fundamental fact
in the doctrine of the Christian faith
we have abundant and conclusive
proofs. He was seen of Mary, of the
apostles, of above five hundred breth-
rem at once, and last of all was he seen
of Paul, who from that time on be-
came the ever enthusiastic preacher of
the truth of the resurrection of Christ
and of the Immortality of the soul
with the everything Christ, who
arose from the tomb, thus demonstrat-
ing the wonderful fact that there is a
life independent of the body is forever
linked the blessed truth of the immor-
tality of all who believe in him. Those
who live and believe in him shall never
die. and though they We're dead. yet
shall they live again. Because he lives,
we shall live also; as in Adam all die,
so in Christ shall all be made alive.
mo Christian doctrine is so abso-
lutely essential to the hap. mess of man
as this same doctrine of immortality. If
In this life only we have faith and hope
in Christ we are indeed the most mis-
cradle of men. Go to the mother who
has looked for the last time into the
eyes of her sweet babe and tell her
that she will never, in any other and
better life, have her little one again:
and tell me Is there anything that will
give her comfort? 1t is faith in Christ,
friends, that gives us victory over the
grave and makes us gloriously trlum-
phant In the presence of the grim mes
senger Of death.
when I lay aside this body I am
going to be crowned in my Fathers
home. Weep no tears for me then. Put
on no sable robes of hopeless grief for
me. The rather play sweet music Send
flowers to your friends and celebrate
the day as the greatest event OF my
life, for | am not going to die, | am
just going to begin to live"

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1S-Replying
to the allegations of Joe Cans that the
fight between himself and James Britt
in this city i'm 1904 was a fake affair,
Britt said today:
Cans statement that the Britt-Gans

as lie and a most contemplate lie at
that.

II suppose that this open declaration
from Cans Is a move by him to force
me to fight him again. / will never fight

cred return match before, but now,
never. He has killed any chance he
has ever had for a return match"

Her living room was especially
charming. She chose two straight
backed chairs. pretty rocker and a
reclining Morris chair in an unfinished
condition, and stained them green. Her
table was a small kitchen table stained
to match, and. the book shelves or
dered from the carpenter were SINH
larly treated. She selected green and
white for her dining room, as it opened
out of the living room. The paper was

border. Again she made a choice Of
some nice new kitchen tables. One
with leaves was selected for the din
Ing room table; small one was con-
verified into sideboard with three
shelves above for plates. Six kitchen
chairs were next ordered, and all Of
these were then stained In green.
The floor Of the dining room was
stained green and a green rag rug put
down. The effect was uncommonly
pretty.
The bedroom was simple and at
tractive. The wall paper showed a
white background with a trailing vine
and the light rag rug had green Dor
der. Awhile enamel iron bed, bureau
and two chairs-all enameled in white,
with a beautiful little dressing table,

There were several attractive shirt

vary also that friezes may be adapted
either to high or low ceiling:
some which run up on the ceiling,
while others in the trellis effect stop
just few inches short Of it.
There are stenciled effects, floral
effects, wreaths, scrolls, fruit and
tapestry designs to be had. The "cut-
out' frieze is particularly to be recon-
mended where an ingram or cartridge
paper is used and the color com bina-
tions are SO varied as to be almost, one
might say, without limit.
These friezes may also be used to
advantage on any two-tone striped wall
hangings Of solid colors. The decorator
as rule, does not push this style of dec
grafton and often does not carry any
in stock.
They are oftentimes bothersome to
handle and the decorator feels that he

him for the time and trouble neces-
sary to put them on properly: -,
The idea of the "cut.out' design

The Summer Sims.

Some stunning cretonnes in floral
and foliage tapestry effects would be
attractive made into slips, especially
for the furniture in reception room.
These can be secured in sober grays
and blues after Dutch designs, with a
touch Of orange to give life, or they
may be in vivid reds, green's, in in1iI-
tation Of the spring flowers, and pat
termed in designs that were popular
during the Empire and Louis periods.
To make slips Of cretonne, which
comes in two widths. the thirty one
and ffty-inch, more material Is needed
than for the coverings Of linen, which
is sixty-six inches wide. For sofa
slip five yards Of cretonne would be
necessary, while four and half Of
would need four and quarter
yards of cretonnes to cover it. An
easy chair would need three yards for
covering, while for small single
chair from two to three yards should
be enough.
A Morris chair, being much larger,
takes more materials, and three yards
Of ffty-inch cretonne is the least that
slip could be made from, while for
Turkish chair at least five yards
would be needed.
