Feathered Briqands.

Following the report Of ravages by
foxes in Richmond park comes news
of Wholesale massacres in London
parks by other but equally destructive
invaders. Ducklings newly hatched
about the ornamental waters Of the
various parks are falling victims to
the carrion crow. In the early morn.
Ing this marauder, penetrating to the
heart of London watches and waits in
a tree overlooking lake, and in due
course swoops down upon the helpless
brood. One Of these raids was wit.
messed by a keeper in Kensington
gardens. Sbres of ducklings have
been devoured. and so many young
birds have disappeared from the Ser
pentine of late that 1t was supposed
that rats had been at work, but the
blame is now laid on the carrion
crow. As in the case of the foxes
reprisals are occasionally made by
the keepers with shotguns.-Londor

PASTIME OF JOCKEYS.

spectacle as he is in the races them.

prise to one not familiar with their
ways to learn that one of the racing
men threatened to suspend his S25,.
600 rider if he did not refrain from
spending his nights at Coney island or
in the Tcnderloin.
The surprise will come to such a
man since whenever he has seen them
killing time between races they have
almost invariably been playing num-
ble-te-peg. Seated on the grass in
front Of the quarters assigned to them,
these boys, in their thin silks and
featherweight boots, spend their time
absolutely absorbed in the game just
as if they were ordinary school boys
and were not making incomes that run
up into the thousands every year. To
look at them absorbed in this pastime
they seem so extremely youthful that
one might well wonder if the average
habituc of the Tenderloin would not
advise such lad to run home and go

collieries Under the Sea.

At Cape Breton there are immense
colleries being worked under the
ocean. These submarine mines cover
a thousand acres, and are being in.
creased steadily, The mines are en-
tered at the shore, and the operators
follow the vein beneath the water for
more than mile. 1t might be ex-
pected that the weight of the water
would force its way into the mine.
The bed of the ocean is as tight as
a cement cistern. A sort Of fireclay
lines the submarine roof of the mine,
and the sediment above is held in
place and packed down by the water
pressure until there is not crevice
nor a drop Of water from overhead.

A MEChANiC.PRIEsT.
Cure Mends Motor Cars When Not
Engaged in Holy Offices.

Near the northern coast of France,
on a route much frequented by motor
lists, lies the village of Graincourt.
Here a beautiful little church is set
high among the trees, with a tower
reflected TRANQUILITY in a lake that
sleeps beside the road, and a cemetery
half hidden in verdure. Close by is
the home Of the priest, and around it
a strange litter Of bicycles. motor
cycles, automobiles, oil cans and tools.
while the open door Of an out-bulding
reveals on one side kind of garage,
on the other a repair shop. From
this building, as the tourist ap-
proaches, comes tall figure, with the
body of an athlete and the head of a
missionary, with bright eyes and a
grizzled beard, kindly SMILE and
muscular arms beared to the elbow.
Is this the cure of Graincourt or is it
the village mechanic? He is both.
Times are hard, since the law sepa.
rating church from state went into
effect, and one must live, explains the
cure.
VI. le Cure is no martyr, however.
His father was a smith, and he grew
up with a passion for tools. When the
bicycle came in he became an anna
teur specialist, and for Is years he
has been mending punctured tires and
| repairing broken pedals for his flock
free of charge. Then came the motor
car, with its mysterious life, so pow
erfnl in its frail envelope. The motor
car won the heart of the cure. He
loves it, and thinks he understands it.
He has even built car and motor
cycle for himself.
And SO the fame of the mechanical
cure Of Graincourt has gone abroad
throughout all the country, and at last
he has decided, without any scruple,
to make business of what had for
merly been pastime. He believes
in his simple soul that he can be Just
as good q priest, can administer the
sacraments and hear confessions just
as well, while he earns his living with
his ten tingers.-New York Tribune.

COULDN'T KEEP 1T.
Kept II Hid from the Children.

I'VE cannot keep Grape.Nuts food in
the house. 1t goes SO fast l have to
hide it, because the children love 1t so.
1t Is just the food l have been looking
for ever so long; something that | do
not have to stop to prepare and still Is
nourishing."
Grape-Nuts Is the most scientifically
made food on the market. II is per.
fectly and completely cooked at the
factory and can be served at an In.
stant's notice, either with rich cold
cream, or with hot milk II a hot dish
is desired. When milk or water is
used, a little sugar should be added,
but when cold cream Is used alone
the natural grape-sugar, which can be
seen glistening on the granules, is suf.
ficiently sweet to satisfy the palate.
This grape-sugar Is not poured over
the granules, as some people think,
but exudes from the granules in the
process Of manufacture, when the
starch Of the grains is changed from
starch to grape-sugar by the process
Of manufacture. This, in effect, is the
first act Of digestion; therefore, Grape
Nuts food is pre-digested and is most

MAINE LEGISLATURE.
Continued from Page Nine.)

which provides that it shall lie on the
table for consideration before being
passed. The purpose Of that rule
think will be plain to every member of
the House-that is. that an order OF
this kind, involving an unusual and i'm
portant request made upon the SUI
preme court should not be passed as
common orders are, without considera-
ton and without any delay, enabling
members of the House to decide
whether or not they are in favor OF its
passage.
Now this order was introduced on
Friday, and l undertake to say that
there were not many more than a
quorum present, probably not quor-
UNI present. 1t escaped the notice of
most Of the members of the House. and
I think many Of the members desire
an opportunity to look into this matter
and decide whether or not after con-
sideratiOn they are in favor of the pas
sage Of the order. Either the order
represents the deliberate judgement of
the majority Of the members of this
House or il does not. If It does rep
resent the deliberate judgement of the
majority OF the members. it can take
no harm whatever from being laid on
the table long enough to allow menu
bers to consider it. If it does not rep
resent the deliberate judgement of the
members Of the House, surely the gen
tlaman from PASSPORT and those who
favor the order would not take adyan-
tage of a techinal inadvertance on the
part of those in charge of the business
Of the House and insist upon relying on
the fact that the order has been tech
nically passed.
