Homes for Birds,

Securing as permanent homes for
the birds islands and remote tracts
that are their favorite haunts is a
humane and perfectly feasible plan
of the Audubon society in this direc-
Gently received a cordial Endorsement
from President Roosevelt. This pro-
ject of enlarging birdland by purch-
asing from private citizens breeding
places in the island and coastal re-
gion of the Atlantic, Pacific and Of the
gulf and of providing the birds in their
homes with human guardians is one
that may be depended upon to provide
every race among our nations birds
with ample quarters for all time. And
it is only by such a thorough and wide
flung measure that this desired end
may be assured. The aid of every
American citizen is justly sought that
the best success may attend the efforts
of the Audubon society in this direc-
ton.

NEW POISON TEST.
Paddy Could Try It On the Cat at
Less Expense.

An Irish laborer entered a drug
store, and, drawing paper bag from
his pocket, he poured on the counter
a number of very sticky and unpalat-
able-looking candy lozenges.
Can ye examine thin swates?" he
asked.
They look queer. What is the

gist.

"All right, Oi'll come in tomorrow

but he suddenly stopped with his hand
on the latch.
"And how much will thot 'nalysis
be costin' me?" he inquired.
Five dollars" was the answer.
Paddy walked over to the counter,
and swept the lozenges into the bag
which he replaced in his pocket.

The Missinu Link,

Some years ago remains of an ape
like creature possessing unusual hui
man resembiances were discovered in
Java, and the animal was named pithe-
canthropus. Professor Haeckel and
some others accepted this as repres-
enting an ancestral human form close
ly allied to the apes. Now a special
expedition. under the combined aus.
pices of the Academy of Sciences of
Berlin and the Dutch East Indies gov.
ernment. is being organized to make
a thorough exploration of Java in
search of additional specimens of
pithecanthropus. The geological for
nation in which the original discovery
was made Is widely extended among
the mountains of that island.-Youth's s

AUTOS AT A COYOTE DRIVE.
California Hunt Not as Successful az
Had Been Hoped For.

A large crowd of San Joaquin coun-
ty residents assembled at the Boil
linger ranch, in the eastern part Of
the county, and enjoyed a coyote
drive, which was not as destructive
as the people of that district hoped
for, as the animals kept out of sight
and only a few were killed. OF late
the coyotes have been killing sheep,
pigs and chickens. The scarcity of
dead animals has caused the coyotes
to invade the ranches and give the
farmer lot of trouble. AS a general
rule, these animals seldom attack
stock, but when driven to starvation
they become bold.
1t was with the hope that a large
number would be killed that general
invitation was extended to the people
to assemble and make a roundup. All
kinds of vehicles, from the old fash
ioned top buggy to the latest in au-
tomobiles, were in evidence, and many
men appeared on horseback and join
ed the chase. One drive was made in
the forenoon and another in the aft
ernoon, lunch being served between
the two trips. Later another effort will
be made to exterminate the trouble
some animals.

"ClEvERALITY."
A Little Descriptive Stroke by Char.
Iotte Bronte.

There is a story that Charlotte
Bronte, when girl of 16, broke out
very angrily at some one who said she
was always talking about clever peo-
pie, such as Johnson and Sheridan.
Now, you dent know the meaning of
clever" she said: Sheridan might be
clever-scamps often are; but John
son hadn't spark of 'cleverality' in
him" That remark really gives the
essence of Johnson and the key to the
great qualities of his work; for, In his
case, even more than in most, the
prose was the man. Whoever wants
'cleverality," whoever wants what
Mr.. Beranard Shaw is supplying to the
present generation, had best leave
Johnson alone. The signal merit of
Johnson's writings is that he always
means what he says and always says
what he means. He may often have
talked for victory; but, except, per-
haps. in the political pamphlets. he
always wrote for truth.

BIG WATERWAY SYSTEM.
Three Thousand Six Hundred Miles Of
River Accounted For.

An old river pilot. In discussing the
presidents voyage down the river
from st. Louis to Memphis, says that
very little idea Of the western system
Of waterways can be gained from so
short voyage.
"The distance from st. Louis to
Cairo is 1913 miles, from Cairo to
Memphis, 241 miles, SO that the presi-
dent saw only 439 miles of our west
ern system below st. Louis.
Nov, the Ohio river from Pittsburg
to Cairo. is 965 miles; the Kanawha Is
u miles; the Tennessee river, from
its mouth to Florence, Ala, is 256
miles; the Mississippi. from st. Paul
to Cairo. is 926 miles, and from Cairo
to New Orleans. Just 1000 The Mis-
souri, river from st. Louis to Kansas
City. is 1856 miles, and above that
point is navigable for nearly 1000
miles more.
Leaving out Of the account, how
ever, the upper Missouri, the Mime
sofa, Illinois, Arkansas, Red River and
several others, some of which are
navigable for considerable distances,
there are in the main streams over 81
800 miles of water course, navigable
nearly three-fourths of the year, and
Of this the president will see only a
little more than one-ninth 1t is in
conceivable that so magnificent sys-
tenn of water highways should be ne
elected, and the presidents voyage. al

entire system, ought to be the begin

SOME ARE so SENSITIVE.
The First Tall Man Couldn't Sec the
Joke and Left.

A tall, thin man, dressed In a light
gray suit, entered the hotel restau-
rant and took an unoccupied chair at a
table near the door. He hardly had
gotten seated comfortably before an
other man, even taller and thinner
than the first one, entered and took
seat at the same table. And, to
make the situation more remarkable
the taller man wore a gray suit of ex-
actly the same shade and cut as the
other.
The shorter man never raised his
eyes from the bill of fare, and seemed
quite oblivious of his companions S
presence. The latter looked curiously
at the first conner for few moments,
and then, with an apparent desire to
be sociable, said:
This must be the thin mans table"
The shorter man Strengthened up
with jerk, gave the very tall man a
look Of the greatest Indignation, and
exclaimed in burst of anger:
We'll, you may have it."
With that he hastily rose and took
seat at the furtherst end of the
room. The very tall man winked at
the waiter, and the incident was
closed.
