not generally needed, to judge by
the damage often traced to its neg

to be especially careful and to give

AFFEcTIoNATE BIRDS.
Ways Of the Geese Of keppei Island.
TERRA del Fuego.

TERRA del Fueso.
To the naturalist wild life is every
way more interesting than that Of
domesticated creatures. Nowhere
can this life be studied better than
in regions least frequented by van.
Captain Snow tells in his voyage
to TERRA del Fuego" how complete
ly unacquainted with man were the
birds of those South American is
lands. What particularly interested
him was the fellow feeling shown
among the sea fowl.
i remember once when / wanted
to give the men a change of diet at
keppel island | shot in an hour and
half twenty-nine of the best up
land geese, quite as good and large
rs our finest geese at home.
ut was not always, however, that
! wanted to shoot these birds. They
went in pairs or threes when feed
ing. On the occasion to which ! re-
fer was making sad slaughter
among them, when ! observed a
male bird suddenly turn from the
flight which he and his companion
were making and look around. !
had shot his mate, and the poor
thing had just dropped on a hillock
not far from me.
'tor a moment the male hesitat-
ed and walked Off after alighting
near his partner. But he. again re-
turned on seeing the female strug-
Cling in death. On he came leisure
ly toward the fallen bird and so in
different to his fate that for a sec
Ond or two | did not shoot, until l
bethought me that | would end his
grief, if grief he had, by making
him share the same fate.
Another male bird that winged
fell in the water, where | could see
him swimming about closely attend
ed BY his female companion. When
at last | sent the boat and captured
the wounded one his poor consort
took to the shore and wandered
about by herself, apparently quite
disconsolate, and refused to mix
with the others.
Il could mention several in
stances which | noticed of affection
between these wild birds, but must
give only the following: One Of the
loggerhead ducks had been caught
alive and carried about with me on
the beach. The other bird, seeing
his companion in this situation, at
once came on shore for it and fol-
lowed US about to some distance,
until at last ] allowed the captive to
go, when they Joined each other and
Immediately waddled away to the

wrote to Admiral Beresford Of the
British navy saying, "Our home has
been blessed with twins, and I write
to ask your lOrdship if you will ask
the Princess Of Wales il we may
call the little girl Princess Of Wales
Brown and the little boy Lord

Charles procured the necessary per.

C0NIUNCTlvlTIs.
Causes and Treatment Of This AiImsn.
of the Eyes. s1

| SaescS aHo treatment OF ms Atlmen
of the Eyes.
Conjunctiyitis is an Inflammation
of the conjunctiva, or mucous mem
brane covering the front surface Of
the eyeball and lining the lids.
1t may be of any degree Of severi.
ty and due to many causes, varying
from the mildest form of irritation
up through pink eye to the most
violent Inflammation, resulting
sometimes, through extension to the
deeper structures, in destruction OF
the eye.
In the simple form of acute con-
iunctivitis the eyes are bloodshot,
the membrane lining the lids is red,
the edges of the lids are Redeemed
and swollen, and there is a sticky,
more or less yellow, secretion, which
quickly dries and gums the lids to-
gether. The eyes burn and smart
and are very sensitive to the light.
There is often a feeling as if hair
or grain of sand were in the eve.
Bacteria of some sort are almost
always to be found on microscopieal
examination of the secretion, but it
does not follow that coniunctivitis
necessarily results from contagion.
Bacteria are almost always present
in the folds of the coniunctiva and
await a lowered resistance of the
membranes, resulting perhaps from
dazzling light, irritation from dust
or cinders or eye strain in order to
take ON renewed growth and excite
the membrane to disease.
Recurring attacks of conjunetiyi-
tbs, accompanied perhaps with an
occasional sty, almost surely result
from eye strain and are to be pre-,
vented only by the wearing of prop
er glasses.
A mild attack of acute conjunc-
tivitis will usually get well of itself
in the course of a few DAYS, but If
neglected it might 90 on to more
severe form of inflammation, caus-
ing suffering and serious incon-
venience, and it may be even endan-
gering the sight.
The subject of this trouble should
stay in a room, not dark, but with
the light dimmed little, and if he
is obliged to go out he should wear
colored glasses while the inflamma-
ton lasts. The eyes should never
be baGdaged.
The utmost cleanliness should be
observed. The eyes should be bath
ed several times daily in boiled wa
ter containing a little table salt or
in a solution of boric acid. If the
lids are hot and swollen much, re.
lief may be obtained by the applica.
ton of small squares of linen kept
while not in use on a lump of ice
and frequently changed when they
begin to grow warm.
This treatment will usually suf.
fee for the ordinary case Of con-
junctivitis, but if a cure does not
take place in day or two the ply
sic n should be consulted, for de-
lays in eye troubles may be danger
ous.-Youth's Companion.

FOR CONCERTED ACTION.
attorneys General Meet in St. Louis
and Plan to Curb Trusts.
fBy Telegraph to The TrlbuLe.I


ST. Louis. Aug. 12.-Seven papers. represent
ing states that have taken the most active part
in the regulation of unlawful trusts and mo-
nopoes with short discussions by other at
torneys general and probably address by
Charles J. Bonaparte, Attorney General Of the
United States. will constitute the programme Of
the attorneys general convention TO be held in
ST. Louis on September 80 and October l. This
was decided upon at preliminary meeting here
to-day attended by attorneys general and as
sistant attorneys general representing Missouri
Ohio. Kansas Texas, Tennessee. Mississippi,
Illinois and Indiana
Three important questions will be discussed in
the papers to be prepared: Regulation Of rail-
roads with special reference to freight and pas
senger traffic; curbing Of unlawful combina-
tions of capital and discussion of the apparent
iurisdictionaI conflict between the state and
federal courts.
United States Attorney General Bonaparte
will be invited TO choose a subject on some
phase of the three questions upon which the
attorneys general hope to organize.
Nearly ali the attorneys general present to-
dav believed there should be a line OF demarca-
t;on between the jurisdictions of the state and
federal courts. Attorney General Hadley, who
presided. said no amendment of the constitution
IS necessary to define the respective Jurisdiction
of the state and federal courts
@What we need is a law which will Clearly
mark out the respective jurisdiction of each,

PRINCE TO HANG--GLAD.

a great burden was lifted yesterday from the
mind of Prince Tyong Oui VI OF Corea. who is

from Seoul that he is to be hanged his return

The imperturbable young man was not bit ex-

death, and relieved because he had learned
what form his execution would take. Prince vi

diaeval methods were 10 be employed to remove
him from the scene Of Corean political activity,
and he did not consider hanging quite so bad.
