The veterans own tailor insists that his
distinguished patron dresses altogether too
gayly for a man of his years He claims
that the white fiannels, white shoes, white
cap etc, which the admiral affects in sum-
mer time are not consistent with the
dignity Of the hero Of Manila bay. The
innate refinement of Senator Lodge crops
out in tasteful dressing, but sometimes his
taste incines to foreign styles which make
his colleagues in the senate sit up and take

THE LIBRARY RESEARCHER
Men Employed by Cranks to Delve

formation.

Says the New York Times: IN the
reading rooms of the New York public
libraries one may see almost any day
mysterious, often seedy-lookinE per-
sons surrounded by musty tones, max
ing copious notes. These individuals
are frequently the subject of remark.
Who employs them, and where are
their notes published? The explana-
ton is that most of these mysterious
persons are experts in research, and at
least two of them are able to scrape
together 81 soc year, but they are the
very princes of their profession. They
are not seedy. Both are highly edu-
Gated, cultured men past middle age,
and we're at one time wealthy.
There is a vast multitude of cranks
in our country, and as most of them
are people of means, they are often Of
use to the needier members of society.
Many library researchers receive
good slice of their yearly income from
these cranks. Thus some unknown
gentleman has conceived the idea that
Gibbons Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire is crawling with errors,
and ne has been employing for some
time three library researchers at sal
airy of $40 a week each to make sys-
tema-ic exam: alton OF every state
ment of fact in that mighty work and
collate all the evidence obtainable on
each work! Another gentleman has a
peculiar idea about the head of Paul
Jones and, contemplating treatise on
the subject, is paying researcher a
good salary to ransack every book In
the New York public libraries likely to
yield a grain of information.

New York Has Seven-F Foot Surgeons
Huge Turtles and Mammoth
Drum Fish

There are some pretty big fellows
in fish society down at the Aquarium.
One alligator is II feet long. An
American crocodile is nine feet long
and there are some seven foot stur-
geons, reports the New York Sun.
Considerable soup stock is repre-
scented by two green turtles, Weighing
900 and 313 pounds. There are also
two loggcrheads, which would tip the
scales at 275 pounds each.
These four specimens are not exact
ly puny, but on the ether hand they
will probably make even better
showing in time, for specimens of each
species have been known to exceed
1000 pounds in weight. One of the
loggerheads is an old resident at the
Aquarium. 1t has been there six years
and does we'll in captivity.

tanks are drum fish, each Weighing
more than so pounds.

Lawn Tennis,

Tennis was first played in the early
part of the sixteenth century in Eng
land and France. Matches for consid-
cradle wagers were frequently held
and rather than give up the game
many men played for parts of their
wearing apparel after their money was
gone. In England toward the last Of
that century, covered tennis courts
were erected. and nearly all the no.
bility played, including the women.
Henry VII. was a deYof Il follower of
tennis, and Henry VIII. 49, also fas-
cinatei by the sport. TIL first royal
tennis match was played bt,~aen this
monarch with the Emperor Maxi
mil;an for a partner, against the
prime Of Orange and the Marquis de
Branderborow. Char'es II. vas the
first person to adept tennis costume.

For several days four or five SPAR

brought food for another little fellow,

The visiting sparrows never came

the others set up great chirping and
