THE sToRk IN EUROPE.
Prosecuted in Some Parts, Protected
as Bird of Good Luck in Others

as Bird Of Good Luck in Others.
In the Baltic provinces and through
out northern Germany and in Denmark
ing the summer months, says the west
minister Gazette. While travelling the
other day from Danzig to Marienberg
l saw several In the fields and on nests
upon buildings quite close to the rail-
way. In Denmark, however, IL Is less
numerous since the draining of the
morasses was begun. 1t is still fairly
common in Holland and Belgium, but
in France, owing TO It's being persecut-
ed and the fact of none of the original
race surviving, it is seen only as bird
of passage. In Alsace and Lorraine its
better treatment is rewarded by a GER
tain number remaining during the sum-
mer to breed.
In passing through Savoy in April
and in the autumn il meets with heart
less persecution, especially on its re-
turn toward the south, when the young
birds are often much fatigued. 1t oc-

with occasionally in central Italy and
Sicily. and Is plentiful in some parts of
Andalusia.
1t Is believed that on one of their
migrations which took place a little af-
ter the middle of last century, the white
storks experienced some sort of catas-
trophe, as they returned in greatly re-
duced numbers. and ever since then
they have been considerably less nu-
merous than before. The periods of
migration with the storks are very
regular. They arrive I'm central Europe
generally between March 10 and rs and
prepare to depart at about the end of
August, first congregating in large
bands, which break up as the adult in
dividuals come and collect the young
together to conduct them southwark.
1t appears that they migrate in large
fiocks. flying mostly by night.
The males and females, Il Is sup
posed, migrate separately, the former
undoubtedly arriving about a week
before the latter to take charge of the
old nest or to settle on a favorable
spot for notification.
Wherever the stork is met with i'm
Europe, excepting In parts where its
occurrence is rare, where II meets with
the common fate of rarity, IL is pro-
tected. The peasants mostly hold It
as sacred and consider IL as a sort of
protector or house god to the house on
which IL nests. and one will sometimes
sell a nest TO a neighbor to bring him
luck, in which case the bird will dis
continue to occupy 1t. often an old
wheel or something else inviting is
fixed on a roof to induce a stork to
build. The nest itself is constructed
of branches and twigs. neatly lined
with grass. straw or any other suitable
material. 1t takes up much space and
every year II is added to. so that the
peasant upon the roof OF whose house
IL nests is obliged sometimes, when
the bird Is absent to remove portion
OF II In order to lessen its weight.

MERCHANTS WANT BETTER
RATES OF INSURANCE
Committee Appointed at Meeting
Of Association Last Night to
Look Into Matter.
PEDDLERSLICENSES DISCUSSED

An important meeting of the Portage
Lake Merchants association was held
last night in the Office Of the secretary,
n. S. Montgomery. I'm the Kauth block
nj which the matter OF securing uni
form ordinances in the Portage Lake
Gowns for itinerant and transient
dealers and the securing of lower in
surance rates were acted upon and
committees appointed to act in rela-
ton TO each of these questions.
Notwithstanding the many inn
movements made in Hancock during
the past few years and the better fire
protection afforded By the building of
water mains in all parts of the city,
the rates OF insurance, instead of being
lowered. have been raised, until now
they are at a point which is consid-
cred entirely too high in view of ex-
listing conditions. The merchants of
Hancock and Houghton desire to bring
about readjustment of rates and 10
this end a committee was appointed
last evening to confer wit the proper
insurance official to consider re-
rating of property i'm Hancock and
Houghton. ThiNs committee Is COM
posed of Henry l.. Baer and Paul Swift
and they will communicate with Mr..
Trevarrow at Negaunee asking the
latter to name some date convenient
for him on which he can meet with the
local merchants to go into the mat
tor
III, question of securing uniform
ordinances relative To peddlers and
transient dealers licenses was consid
cred and committee composed OF N
A. Metz and George Ruppe of Hancock
and l.. T.. Hennes and Paul Swift OF
Houghton was appointed to meet with
the committees of the Hancock ana
Houghton councils to devise a scale Of
suitable rates. The council committee
chosen Monday night consists of AL
dermen Holland, Congdon and O'NeilL
The Houghton council met last night
and the appointments of committee
was left i'm the hands of President Mil
Ter. The announcement of the person
mel of the Houghton committee has not
as vet been communicated to the Han
cock officials or the Merchants asso-
cation but probably will be made
known today or tomorrow. A joint
meeting of the three committees will
then be named at which legal advice,
probably from the city and village at
torneys of the two places, will be OBJ
tanned and an effort made to secure
such revision of the ordinances on the
peddling question as may be deemed
best. The action taken by the mer-
chants is intended as a protection TO
themselves and to their patrons as
well. and is not meant to infringe IN
any ones rights or privileges. When
the new ordinances are adopted 1t is
the intention of the Merchants asso-
citation to use every effort to see that
they are enforced.
Hereafter all persons will be forbid
den to dump ashes into the ravine
near the Kerredge theater, an order to
this effect having been issued this
morning. The place has been used
quite extensively as a dumping place
for ashes and other refuse. but IL Is
thought it will interfere with the
washing of sand into the ravine next
spring, and other means of disposal
will have to be found.
