Gets 1900 Partridges-Making Bird
Paradise at Pocantico Hills.

Mount Vernon, N. Y.-The arrival of
eighteen hundred cartridges at the coun-
try home of John ID. Rockefeller at Po-
cantico Hills in the northern part of
Westchester county, brought to light the
fact that Mr.. Rockefeller is laying a
veritable bird paradise on his preserve.
In one section of his great private park
of O 1000 acres he has laid out a feeding
ground for his vast collection of feath-
cred animals. On tall trees cages for
cartridges, pigeons and other birds have
been placed, while there is also q sepa-
rate building for hundreds of pheasants,
rare birds of various plumage and SPUR
rels. The tank steamers of the Standard
Oil Company are constantly bringing in
rare birds for Mr.. Rockefeller from for
eign countries and it is said he intends
to lave the finest collection of the feath-
cry tribe in the world.

their hind feet and to forget IT,
use their tails, so finally there
were no tails at all. From finding
caves, the monkeys learned how
to make caves, and one day one
of them found something which
made him warm. He managed to
take some of this to his own cave,
and so started the first fire upon
Ia hearth. AS they now lived III
their own cave-homes instead OF
wandering from tree to tree, their
food grew further and further
away from them, so they tried
little by little, to make it grow
nearer to their caves and so tie
first garden was started.
One day, so many centuries aft"
er that l cannot tell you how
many, one of the monkeys learned
that the log of tree could be roll
ed easier than it could be dragged.
When he found that out he had
gone a long way towards inventtng
the wagon, the steam engine AMI
the automobile, for this man
monkey made the first wheel.
BY this time the man-monkeys
had quite forgotten that they
had ever been monkeys, but
the old monkeys have. never for
gotten. Sometimes, especially
when alone, they are glad they are
monkeys, and that is when they
leap and play. But every little
while the thought of all they have
missed will pop into their monkey
heads, and then they stop, and If
there is any little boy or girl of the
new race near, the monkeys look
wistful and pitifui and old.-al-
ways as old as the old, old mon
keys who refused to break away
from their trees and their tribe.

ditiona1 upon Mr.. Roosevelt's not
lecturing before Methodists, this

what is known as the third degree"
ordeal by the officers of the law for
the purpose .of extorting statements
and confessions from those charged
with crime.
Mr.. Hepburn said he had seen a
Washington paper give an account OF
the methods said to have been resort
ed to by the Atlantic City police to
obtain a confession from William Sey-
Ter. charged with the murder of Jane
Adams.
He asserted such methods were
more cruel than those of the Inquis-

he said. but are in direct conflict with
American court instructions under
which an officer is prohibited from
talking with his prisoner on the sub
ject of the charge against him.

would resort to such practice in OBJ
tanning testimony against an accused
person and no brutal custom should

the entire subject should be investi-

grounds.

lates a fundamental principle of all
