Sea Birds.

Taking the sea birds all round. they
are far more careless in their nesting
than their cousins inland. The terms,
the skua. the putfins. the black-throat-
ed diver. the guillemot make no nests,
properly so called. The putin, how
ever, usually burrows a rabbit burrow,
and Is not particular whether its orig
inal owners have done with their home
or not II they interfere, or even try
to pass a peck from the pufiin's great

them against trying the experiment

ed things. Their short wings look,
in fact. more like fms than wings, and
unlike gulls. the auks catch their prey
beneath the furface. The auk's selec
tion OF a spot to lay her eggs is &c
centric to a degree. She chooses a
bare. broken ledge OF hard rock. over
hanging the waves. II looks as though
1t were a feat to balance eggs in such
place. and the marvel is that this
first gale does not send them rolling
over the crags.

A good lesson in home building may
be learned from the large operators
who make business of building up
whole streets in the suburbs with
houses OF medium size for the pur-
pose OF selling the improved property
al n profit, besides increasing the
valuation OF the remaining vacant
property in the neighborhood. These
real estate operators have found that
Il pays them best to give a great deal
Of attention TO the design OF their
houses.
OF course, every house must be sub
stantially built and arranged for prac-
tical cOnveniences and utility; but
this is not enough. Such houses must
ne attTaCUNe also. Eacn must nave

This matter Of distinctive appearance
is especially important where a large
number of new houses are being put
up at the same time I'm the same
neighbOrhood; for nothing looks quite
so cheap and unlnyitlng as a whole
line of new houses all packed in close
together and all OF the same mono
tOnous appearance.
While the average home builder
does not have this exact problem L
contend with, still he should take
warning from such examples anC

amount to practically the same thing

MISTAKE Of NURSE
KILLS A PATIEN |

DENVER. April 27.-The mistake
of a nurse at Mercw hospital yester-
day caused the pa nful death OF Mrs.
Myron Tubbs. who came recently
from Junction City. Kansas. to pro
cure treatment for her 1O-months old
baby.
Mrs. Tubbs had lived at the hos
pital to be close to the baby. Friday
morning she asked the nurse if she
could give her some salts for herself.
The nurse gave her what she sup
poser 20 be a liberal supply OF kp-
som salts. What she did give her in
reality was oxalic acid. Mrs. Tubbs
took the salty acid and died in ag
ony a few minutes later.
When asked what act on would be
taken in reference TO the death Cor
oner McGovern said:
"All parties to the affair recognize
It as a purely accidental case-unfor-
tunate, OF course. but irremediable
now-and there viii be nothing fur
ther done in the matter"
Mrs. Tubbs was a former Denver
girl. She came from Junction City a
week ago, when her baby took sick
with pneumonia She placed the
child in Mercy hospital and secured
permission from the mother superior
Sister Mary Ann. TO remain at the
institution.
| Yesterday morning she asked Miss
Blanche Burton, the nurse who had
been caring for the baby. for Ep-
som salts. She accompanied Miss
Burton to the steralizing roora where
the nurse. while chatting with her,
UNIV ttingly poured out a portion Of
the oxalic acid instead Of the salts.
Mrs. Tubbs swallowed a mixture OF
the drug and water and returned 10

her duties. Half an hour later an.

pied by Mrs. Tubbs. heard groans

ALDRIDGE DEFEAT
AN AWFUL BLOW

WASHINGTON. April 2S.-"The re
cent democratic victory in the Roch-
ester, New York, district is of no
national importance. II was wholly a
local affair. Our committee took no
notice of the fight"
This declaration by Representative
Mckinley OF Illinois, chairman of the
republican congressional committee,
is typical of the political blindness
OF many of the standpatters. Even
as they are being driven back and
out OF public life. they deny abso-
lutely that such is the case
Cases in point are those of Sena-
tor Aldrich of Rhode Island Senator
Hale of Name. and Representative
Lowden of Illinois, all of whom have
announced that they will not accept
reelection. Senator Hale made the
fight OF his life that he might remain
in the senate but finding sentiment
in his state was hostile. he announ-
ced that he would not be a candidate
for reelection. Until within the last
month Senator Hale scoffed at the
idea that he could not control his
own state. As early as 1908 it was
clearly apparent to all save Hale
himself that his persistent represen-
tation of special interests, his indif
ference 20 public welfare and his ar
rogant disregard for public opinion
had aroused in his state a sentiment
of such extreme hostility that it
could not be suppressed.
notwithstanding Aldrich's announ-
cemtnt his opponents here say they
do not credit his statemt ut, viewing
it as intended for polit cal effect and
not made in good faith. If the next
Rhode Island legislature is republican
many believe Aldrich viii permit
himself TO be reelected, although for
the sake of appearance he may de
clare that such action WAS against
his wishes. If the next Rhode Island
legislature should happen to be demo
crate. Aldrich will deny that it was
personal defeat in all probability
explaining that he was not a candi
date for reelection.
The republican progressive sena
tors declare that whatever Aldricl
says now they viii still expect Il
see him back in the senate in th'
next congress. Representative Low
den of III nois, who represents th'
Pullman company, viii not seek re
nomination. It is doubtful If he coulC
be reelected.
The public may exepct to hear o
many stand-pat republicans declining
denominations II is said two o.
three members of the house viii d.
so within the next few days. Thil
may be accepted as an indication o
the break ng up of the republican
party. The authentic fguers of th'
recent Rochester, n. Y, election have
nov been received. and they go /;
long way in explaining why a repuoli
can stand-patter would be JUSTIFIED
