NEW YORK, June 17.-Along the
dark path through the woods from the
old I4orillard mansion walked Police
man Walter Kane last night, thinking
of the ferocious puma that once escaped
from the geological garden in the
Bronx, and hoping that his tour Of pa
troll would be free from danger
A dark object was hurled against his
head out of the blackness of the night
and his helmet fell to the ground AS
he stopped to grope for it something
swat tied him from behind and he meas
ured his length on the ground.
With his heart near his throat and
pistol in hand the bluecoat sprang to
his feet and peered into the blackness.
Suddenly a giant bird jumped for his
face. He ducked and a second bird at
tackled him from the rear.
1.-The wild owls are upon me-" he NUT
tered between set teeth as he gave
battle with nightstick and fists. For
ten minutes the birds and the police
man fought. Kane's uniform was torn
in a dozen places and his hands were
bleeding when he finally drove the owls
away.
The two old gray owls have haunted
the park for several years. The Off
cials of the 200 have tried In vain to
capture them, but the owls are too
wary. Several women have reported re-
Gently that the birds have attacked
them.

STEALS CAR FROM BARNS
Not Caring for Lonely Ride, the Gull

vades Cemetery
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PITTSBURG, June 17.-Some one
stole an open trolley car from the
Brighton road barns of the Pittsburg
Railways company shortly after 10
o'clock Saturday night Not caring for
publicity, this person has not revealed
his or her identity The Allegheny po-
lice and the railways company detec-
tives are trying to discover who it was.
The car was whole when it left the
barns, but a wrecking crew gathered up
the splinterS yesterday afternoon and
loaded them on a flat car. There are
remaining few pieces Of the old iron
and trolley pole that may be put to
some useful purpose again.
Nobody knew anything about the
theft until a car going at tremendous
speed struck the curve in front of the
entrance to Highland cemetery. The
car seemed to realize its finish and de-
cided not to go any farther than the
burying ground, for it jumped the
track, pushed the curb aside, knocked
down a telegraph pole and a city fire
plug. There was no other obstacle now
but the big picket fence, and this fell
when the car assaulted it. A steep hill
side at the other side of the fence re-
fused to bulge. The car hit the slope
with force enough to disturb the popu-
lation of the graveyard and collapsed
People in the neighborhood of the
cemetery rushed out to see what had
happened among the tombstones. Then
they started to poke about among the
remains of the car to see if any passen-
gers had stayed to the finish. There
were no passengers or crew, so a search
was made back along the line to the
car barn. The employees there knew
nothing of the larceny, but took an in
ventory of their stock. They found car
413 had left it's STALL No one saw the
thief who so boldly rode away with the
car, and, so far. there is not the slight
est cew that would lead to the ap-
prehension of the culprit The city will
repair the street, sidewalk and water
plug and will set up new telegraph
pole. And the residents of the Brighton
road district will be shy one open

PASADENA, June 1.-THE police
station is entertaining three drunks
this evening as the total of a Sundays
catch.
The heat of the day will probably be
offered as an excuse tomorrow morn
ing before Police Judge Mcdonald for
an attempt to get cool by the aid of
the usual cold bottle.
John w. Lane was the first to secure
police protection from the heat and
would have slept off his drunk in the
park had not Officer Longley come
along and vetoed the proposition.
Sam Boyd was another catch of
Longley, and his failing was the same
as Lanes
Robert Beals crawled into an inse-
cure hay loft in the Mccormick barn
on North Raymond avenue, and before
he could get to sleep managed to fall
through the floor into the stalls behind
the sober horses. Officers Reece and
Schultz carried him to the privacy of

KAISER in DREAD OF BOMBS

Near Imperial Castle
The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald
VIENNA, June 16.-The discovery OF
the plot against the kaiser just before
his recent visit to Urville castle,
Alsace Lorraine, has resulted in the
most extraordinary precaution for his
safety during his visit to Viennc.
Around the park surrounding the cas-
tie where he is staying there is triple
guard of detectives, and even reporters
are not allowed to approach the castle.
Photographers, upon the other hand,
have been given a good deal of license,
many snapshots of the emperor having
been taken.
The imperial servants have been sup
piled with passes, without which they
are not allowed to enter the castle. A
lackey who left the castle without his
pass was not permitted to re-enter, al
though he wore the kaiser's private liv-
cry. Under military escort he was
taken to the room where he had left the
pass and then to the major domo to
prove that he was really an imperial
servant and not a disguised anarchist.

CHICAGO, June 17.-Alexis Carrel

able experiments with the veins, arter-

assert that the same thing can be done
with man. They transform veins into
arteries and arteries into veins and re-
verse circulation. At present they are
watching five dogs which are apparent
ly thriving with their interior thus
transformed.
They hope by the transplantation of a
vein on another vein to produce a devia-
ton of the blood from one part of the
system to another, and by this deviation
to cure diseases of the liver, kidneys
and even of the brain.
Softening of the brain is now incur
able, but Drs. Carre and Guthrie ex-
pect to see the time when by sending
red blood surging through the brain
they will be able to restore the patient
to a normal mental condition.

woman, carrying In her arms healthy
boy 2h years old, stepped into the pri-
mates house at the New York loologi-
cal park yesterday and started to look
at the monkeys. A nice old man made
eyes at the baby and then tried to make
him laugh. Then he spoke to the little
fellow.
"He doesn't talk" said the woman
alphabetically and with something like
a sob. "I fear that he Is dumb. / have
tried to teach him baby words, but he
doesn't seem to understand. IL is very
sad"
"Ahi" said the old man sympathetic
ally, and he watched the woman pass
down the line OF cages. The handsome
baby looked wearily at the monkeys.
There was no interest In the angelic
face Once or twice the woman spoke
to him in English, but baby didn't
answer.
The two paused in front of the cage
Of the white-throated sapatou, mon
key from South America. The creature
stared at the baby for a minute and
suddenly interrogated:
"Ricker-rickl Rlck-er-rick2"
The baby gave leap in his mothers
arms. His little face shone with a
smile.
"Gurickl Gurickl Rickl Tr goo!"
he screamed, waving his fat arms.
There was a sudden sensation in the
monkey cages. All sorts of queer
faced denizens of the house pressed to
the cages and a scream of baby talk
went up.
"Goo Gu-er-oo-er-rick!" cried the
baby, clapping his hands and laughing.
The face of the woman was white
with excitement. 1t was evident that
what she had failed to do the monkey
folk had done alta single try. Baby
was talking with the primates and was
understanding them. The big East
African baboon throw himself at the
cage and tried to shake down the door,
and then screamed cultural words that
baby answered.
The guards smiled knowingly, and the
nice old man came up again and said:
II thought that you said the baby was
dumb %
II thought So" said the woman, "but
he seems to understand the monkeys.
| shall bring him here often"
There is common language among
monkeys" said guard, land it is
strange, but all babies seem to under
stand it. / have seen one angry cry
from baby throw the whole house into
the widest excitement, and a baby
laugh with a single syllable will some
times set all of the monkey folk chat
