one Augusta resident who is friend
to the birds and who has during the
past week thrown out a liberal supply
OF crumbs for them each morning. said
yesterday that it was worth the while
to get up carly in order to see the birds
at their morning meal. There were not
only the English sparrows. which are
always and everywhere present. but
also fiocks of birds which had passed
the winter in a milder cline and had
come north only to be snowbound. In
the lot assembled just outside the win
dow were robins, juncos. song SPAR
rows, and also two hermit thrushes'
the presence of the latter birds being
quite remarkable as they are among
the most shy of the wild birds ana sell
dom come 50 near the habitations OF
man. 1t was pretty sight and each
bird was hustling for his breakfast ~
4 way which indicated that ne haa
brought his appetite with him.

There has been much speculation as
to where the addition to the court
house would be and how big it would
be in proportion to the original build
ing. Immediately after the last snow
storm someone paced off the exact
location and dimensions Of the build
ing with the plan of the first floor. This
full size detair' Of the addition gives
an excellent idea of the magnitude of
the proposed improvements.

Fashion absolutely defies economy
even in matters sartorial, and just as
we have grown used to short sleeves
and have had our coats cut off to
the elbow, the tickle jade declares that
we shall revert once more to long
sleeves. Many a dinner-dress, for in

the sleeve worn over the wrist TAX.
ing it all round, especially in tailor
mades, l consider the long sleeve is
boon to the generality of womankind.
To begin with, it is practical. and
nothing was more incongruous for or
binary everyday use than n sleeve
which left exposed half bare arm!
When blue serge frock was finished
just above the elbow and the glove
was not long CROUCH, it did not seem
to me to SAVIOR of good style, to say
the least of it, for travelling, or indeed
for any occasion on which we wear
the tailor-made.
Among the definite fashions for the
fan and winter season are longer
sleeves and shorter skirts, with coats
tending towards greater length. In
graceful garments, and especially in
furs, the kimono sleeve is giving place

EATS NUTS; HAS FINE HEALTH.
squIrreI's Fare and Water Year
Around syIvester's Only Diet. Z

Boston.-George B. Sylvester, of
Roxbury, eats nuts and nothing else
the year round, doesn't drink tea, cof-
fee or stimulants, the only liquid that
Mr. Sylvester drinks is warm water
that is taken after half of his meal
of nuts is consumed.
Mr.. Sylvester is a bachelor and
lodges at 81 Montrose street, Roxbury.
He Is 81 years of age, and began to
live on nuts two and a half years ago,
finding it cheaper way Of living, and
enjoys the best of health since he
stopped eating other food.
Mr.. Sylvester wanted some nutri--
ment to take the place of meat, which
was harmful to him in hot weather
and didn't seem to agree with him in
winter, SO he decided to live on nuts,
finding as much and more nutriment
in them than meat. Peanuts, chest
nuts and all other nuts in their sea-
son are eaten by Mr.. Sylvester. The
only time he breaks his diet is Christ
mas and Thanksgiving.
"Mastication is the most important
thing in living on nuts" said Mr.. Syl-
vester to the reporter; eff the nuts
are chewed until no taste remains then
swallowed, they are the healthiest
and best thing for man to live on.
They don't make you good looking,
as you can see by me, that's why you
can't have my picture. but for man
81 years old I'm as healthy as can be
found in Boston" Judging from Mr..
Sylvesters looks his statement is
right.

GOAT sTARvEs HIMSELF.
Elmo Mountain Specimen In Pittsburg
Refuses to Eat.

Pittsburg-Entended as gift to the
zoo of Riverview park, Allegheny,
fine mountain goat, brought from
British Columbia by d. G. Byers of
Sewickley, will instead, as the result
of an incident go to the Carnegie
museum. The incident was the death
of the goat.
Mr.. Byers and w. R. Scalfe re-
turned from a hunting trip of sew
eral weeks In Canada. The goat,
fine specimen. weighing more than
$50 pounds, was captured in the
Stickline river, on the border line
between Alaska and British Columbia.
1t is supposed to have been chased
into the water by bear.
The death of the goat was directly
due to starvation. He refused to
eat bite while in captivity. On only
two or three occasions did the goat
drink any water, either. 1t was ex-
pected, however, that after his being
taken from the box in which he was
shipped to Pittsburg he would begin
eating. Instead, he SHE'D at food
more than ever.
Mr.. Byers says the goat has fine
pair of horns and is a magnificent
specimen in every way. When he
reaches the museum and is mounted
proudly on rocky pedestal, 1t is ex-
pected he will attract almost as much
attention as If he were alive in zoo.

OWL FIGHTS LIKE EAGLE.
Huntsman Interferes with lts Pursuit
of Squirrel.

Allentown, Pa.-Adar Bohlinger, of
Upper Milford, the other morning
started for the Coleraine mountains
on squirrel hunt. He started early,
so as to arrive just before sunrise,
when the squirrels begin to feed.
Just as dawn was breaking Mr.. Bob
linger saw monster owl fitting
through the woods, and the next in
stant it darted for squirrel.
1t missed and tried again. Then
Bohlinger fired. 1t dropped and Boh-
lnger tried to pick it up and immedi-
ately discovered that instead of kill
ing 1t he had only succeeded in break
ing its wing.
The wounded owl fastened its talons
in Bohlingers hand and put up SO des-
perate a fight that before the hunter
succeeded in killing it his face and
hands were torn and scratched in
frightful manner and he was totally
exhausted.
A physician dressed and cauterized
his wounds.
The owl is one of the biggest seen
along these mountains in many years.
and Bohlinger will have It stuffed and
mounted.

CELESTIAL CALAMITY AT YALE.
Scion of Royal Family Plunged on
Head in Deep Marsh Hole.

New Haven, Conn.-An information
al calamity marked the first of the
Yale geological outings, when num-
ber of the students under the guidance
of Prof. Barrett started on an expedi-
ton to the quarries along Stony creek.
With the party was Ponson Carlos
Chu of Shanghai, scion Of the royal
family of China, whose father is high
in the government life OF the coun-
try.
Riding to the quarries in a freight
car, the students spent several hours,
starting back through the marshes for
a short cut to the railroad. Ponson is
one Of the dandiest sports Yale has
seen in several years, and he nearly
tainted at the sight of the marsh and
looked at his new fall costume Ac-
cepting the offer of Arthur Mullin, of
Salem, o., to carry him across on his
bacl:, all went well until Mullin
stepped into an unseen hole to his
waist and the royal lad from China
was thrown head foremost, his head
going deep into the mud and his
princely legs sticking up in the air.
He was rescued, but his face had
changed from the Mongolian yellow to
the sambo hue of the Ethiopian.
Ponson says geology is hard
course.
