NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-Two thousand
canary birds. whose united chirps
drowned the moaning and the shrtrk-

II was reported when the ship sldled
into It's pier that an army Of eats mad
abandoned wailing on the back fences,
had ceased being targets for bOOtjacks.
and had scurried TO the dock to greet
the canaries as cats usually greet such
birds The rumor was unfounded. The
only cat In sight was the one that

much milk and meat that pate efOie

Besides tWitteTtng and singing 10 one
