Care Of Birds.

At this time OF year, unless great
cleanliness is adopted with all cage
birds, insect pests will prove most
troublesome. II is by no means pleas
ant to find several insects on the
hands when the cage is touched or
moved, a sure sign that the unfor-
tunate bird is infested with parasites,
generally the result OF dirt. If a cage
bird is seen to be picking itself con-
tinually under the wings and vent, and
to be restless, and fidget about on the
perch at night, insects must certainly
be suspected. The bird should be
caught and busted with insect powder.
and little quassia of alum added to
the bath water If the perches are
made hollow for about an inch at each
end, the insects will conceal them
selves in the hollows in the daytime.
The perches can then be taken out Of
the cage frequently. and dipped into
boiling water, getting rid in this way
Of numbers of the pests. An old
fashioned plan is to hang a white
cloth over the cage at night, leaving
room for ventilation. Many of the
insects will retire into the folds at
daylight, when the cloth can be care
fully removed and dropped into hot
water

FLIGHTS ABOARD AIRsHIP.
Knabenshue, Aeronaut, to Appear al
Luna Park.

ARRANGEMENTS are being rapidly completed
for the appearance of Roy Knabenshue, the
aeronaut, at Luna Park from next Tuesday
until the following Monday. piece or
ground has been cleared of everything for
the erection of his big aerodrome. in which

drome Knabenshue will make his flights,
daily If the weather permits. The airship
will be open to public inspection, and thou
sands viii doubtless go to the park to take

of a successful flight There is every proba-
bility, it is said that the first flight will be
made Tuesday. The aeronaut will circle
the big swing guide his machine around
the park with, against and across the wind,

the Executive Mansion, to pay his personal
respects to President Roosevelt Whether

Old General Humidity is again on duty to-

this morning gave a reading of %. which
was only five degrees below the point or

According to Prof Frankenlield, the at

all day. The tropical conditions caused
a weather man to coin a word with
which to express the sensations of such a
day today has been. He declared that
the phrases ''sweltering' and sufrocatin2
had become obsolete and moth-eaten.

ill and unable to continue. Mr.. Fuller
was in a dazed condition when he reached
the Emergency Hospital, and it was feared
his illness might prove fatal but he re-
vived in a short time and was soon on
the road to recovery. The patient was sent
in the evening, when he went to the hotel
