of Fifth avenue which after nghtfall is as dead and deserted village street, for much of it's extent especially at this season of the year. Another factor that has worked against the permanent suc- cess of Fifth avenue as d street of great hotels is the lack of transportation con venIences, the visitor finding it necessary to walk some distance to reach car line or subway station or else to resort to the expensive expedient of cabs
 Consequently Fifth avenue Is being forced steadily and surely into the third era of it's development, that of busi- ness thoroughfare. Its lower section Is already given up to wholesale establish ments-clothing manufacturers, dealers in furs and flowers and feathers, and agencies of mills and factories in all parts of the country. Further uptown retail shops have taken possession and the de- partment store is beginning to make it's appearance. Lofty office buildings occupy the desirable corner sites and trades of every sort are represented throughout the once fashionable district where trade in any form would not have been permit ted to set foot a generation ago. Mean- while land values are steadily rising and prices approaching $500 a square foot, unmatched elsewhere outside the Wall street district. excite no particular com ment in the record of Fifth avenue realty transactions.

NEST BUILDING EVOLUTION.
Birds Make Changes and Improve.
 ments According to Circumstances.
From the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune
 The evolution of birds nests begins with those birds that do not build any nests but simply deposit their eggs in the bare ground. Then come those which make rudimentary preparations for the reception of their eggs, and finally those which construct nests so remarkable as to rival the products of the weaver's art
 In these the work of construction re- quires superlative activity and persever- auce The beak and claws are used as veritable tcOls- The nests are designed not only t~ yrovide shelter for the young, as birds sometimes build them for mere recreation and also as habitations during the winter season.
 In Australia the Chlamydera maculata have pleasure nests. They frequent the brush which surrounds the plains and construct their nests with amazing skill. supporting the framework by founda- tion of stones, and transporting from the banks of streams and water courses at a considerable distance the numerous ornamental objects which they dispose at the entrance of the nests. There is no doubt in the mind of Prof. Aristides Mestre that birds modify and improve their nests both as to form and mate rial when circumstances have arisen which require such change.
 Many years ago Poudrat gathered swal- lows nests from the window sills and had them placed in the collection of the National History Museum at Rouen. For ty years later he sought for similar nests and was astonished to find that the new ly collected nests showed a real change in their form and arrangement These nests were from new quarter of the city and showed a mixture of the old and new types Of the forms described by naturalists of earlier periods he found no trace. For Poudrat the new type of construction marked a distinct advance. The new nests were better adapted to the needs of the young brood and pro- tected them better from their enemies and from cold or indictment weather.
 In Cuba there are nests made alto gether of palm fibers, marvelously inter- twined and attached close to the tufts of the palms or under the clusters of bananas or mangoes. This nest Is built both by the male and female bird They perforate the small leaves of the palm and pass threads through the holes so as to form a species of rope. by which the nest is suspended. It has been said that an old bird and a young bird build the nest together. This shows the existence of a kind of apprenticeship. which consti- tutes an additional argument against the theory that blind instinct animates the birds in building their nests.

it will be the wealth of business in cor- porate form, not of individual fortunes.

It is a significant fact that the fash ionable life of this famous street, cover ing almost exactly half a century, has coincided so closely with that of the two structures which gave the first impetus toward its growth a street of wealthy homes. The old reservoir at Forty-second street. a famous landmark for many years, has been removed to make way for the great New York library, not yet com pleted. and the Fifth Avenue hotel closed it's hospitable doors for the last time year ago to give place to big office building. Their passing marks the pass ing of Fifth avenue-the Fifth avenue of magnificent homeS, millionaire residents and fashionable affairs.
 As to whether the famous street will have a successor comprising the combined glories of wealth and fashion within single locality appears to be doubtful. There are too many mllionaires and near millionaires today to be grouped within the limits of single street. It Is prob able that the extreme upper end of Man haitian island and the region beyond it along the Hudson in a measure will suc- ceed to the fam of Fifth avenue as a fashionable residence section, but never again, 1t Is safe to say, will . single thorouEhfare comprise 50 large DOT

DEER LIKES BOTTLED BEER

Newton (N. J) Dispatch to the New

 The workmen on the Standhope- Newton road contract have adopted a lawn as a pet to replace the dog which strayed away rom their camp near Cranberry Lake. Their new pet lives in the noun tains through which the road runs but every morning 1t makes trip to camp and is fed by the men.
 When the young deer first appeared in the camp 1t was timid. but as 1t came and went day by day it grew tame, and now eats from the hands of the men, If shot is heard in the neighborhood, 1t immediately leaps to cover
 Not long ago the men gave 1t for breakfast a shredded wheat biscuit and a bottle of beer, which it took with appar- ent relish and then darted away into the hills. So fond are the laborers of their new pet the contractor declares they are better satisfied with their work and fewer Iscn lo2vo now than ever before.

CHILDREN ARE 5ELlEv-
ED TO BE HIDDEN.

st. Louis, Aug 5.--A letter which
came into the possession Of the po-
lice today is believed to. be the first
communication received in st. Louis
from the kidnapers of the Viviano
children since the father of Grace vi
viano received through the mails the
mails the demand for $4,000 ransom.
This second letter was addressed to
Joseph Pagano, one of three men held
on suspicion that they know something
OF the plot.
The letter received today came from
Chicago. The writer says that he
cannot claim "the trunks because the
police are watching them The po-
lice are keeping the text of the letter
secret and will not divulge the name
of the writer, Marchesi Benedetto
whom the police are seeking, opened
a saloon at Milton avenue and Oak

Constantinople, Aug. 5.-Greece has
replied to the Turkish note presented
today, which, although coucned in
friendly terms. practically demands
the recall of the Greek officers serving

tion is in the hands OF the four pow
ers of Crete, with whose knowledge
and consent the officers in question
were sent to the island Turkey is

ers. and she intimates that her friend
ly request to Greece will be followed,
unless satisfaction is obtained by a
more energetic demand.
The report that Turkey has dis
patched transports with troops on
board to Crete is denied today, but it
seems probable that the Turkish fleet
now maneuvering in the neighborhood
of Rhoades will proceed to Crtean wa
