wooden covered bridge across the Hud

the landmarks and curiosities in this
section. 1t was first opened for traffic
in 1892 and has been in constant service
ever since.
The fire, supposed to have started
from an electric wire. was most spec

CANARY BIRD CHOIR.
Yellow Songsters Assist Congregation
in Singing Hymns.

Cincinnati. Ohio. July A.-The pres

sabbath morning musical program con-
stituted an innovation at the regula,
religious services of Lincoln Park In

The idea of installing the birds as a
part of the choir was suggested by tn,
pastor Rev. George r. Robbins. The
effect OF combining songs of canaries
and the choir voices with a pipe organ
was declared by members of the CON
sregation to be a success. The text
was who are these that come flyinc
through the air like doves?"
Rev. Robbins requested members of
the congregation to bring as MANY
canaries as We're available. The gilded
cages were hung all about the audi
torium and kept up as long as there
was choir singing.

Toledo, Ohit, 49,, l4.-Maj Gen.
Frederick Dent Grant, who has been in
command of the United States military
tournament at Camp Taft here the
past week. believes the United States
army, as it now stands, is entirely mad
eQuate.
THE army in this country by all
means ought to be placed at 100000, in
stead Of it's present number of 50,000,'
said iien. Grant today. I'VE ought to
have at least 70 more regiments of
regular infantry for immediate training
and 600 more officers. All this has been
pointed cut to Congress. but the law
makers are decidedly slow to act.
The tournament of the past week
has prov great success. 1t has de-
mnnstrated to the American people the
value OF our army, and the men are to
be complmented on the proficiency
with which they went through their
drills. as well as the splendid spirit
shown aud their perfect conduct in
camp"
