GUINEA HENS ARE ANNOYING
NeIghbors Simply viii Not Endure
Longer Screeching Of Fowls
Vary Tune Nightly.

South Norwalk, Conn.--Two hun.
dred calliope lunged guinea hens
owned by Miss Sarah L. Davenport of
Wilton are now giving nocturnal con-
certs to the great annoyance of Miss
Davenport's neighbors, whose protests
last spring forced her to get rid of 800
dogs.
Affairs have come to a pass now
where Miss Davenport's neighbors will
extend the freedom of the city to the
dogs If she will only consent to chase
the guinea hens.
In desperation, residents of Wilton,
a short distance from here, have asked
H. d. Ogden of New York to dig up
law which will force Miss Davenport
to gag her pets between sunrise and
sunset 1t was Mr.. Ogden who pro-
cured the court order prescribing CAPT.
tai punishment for every one of Miss
Davenport's dogs, but when constables
went to execute the order the animals
had been shipped beyond the danger
zone.
Soon afterward Miss Davenport es-
tablished vocal conservatory for ambi
uOuS guinea mems ana at tne present
time she has 200 promising perform
ers. mostly sopranos, under her care.
They change the opera every night
and on Sunday night give an extra
performance.
An old law has been resurrected
which makes 1t misdemeanor to har-
Dor any beast or bird that cries,
whines. cackles or barks during sleep
ing hours. and the chances are that
the guinea hens will be asked to show
cause in few days.
Miss Davenport is one of the most in
teresting women in this part of the
state. OF distinguished family, pos
sessed Of great wealth. she tired Of
travel and settled on large farm in
Wilton about twelve years ago She
took a fancy to dogs. and soon had q

CITY OF CONCRETE
Kingston, Capital Of jamaica, Is
Completely Restored.
Buildings Are. as Nearly Flreproof as
II 10 Possible to Make Them-
New City Is Immense
Improvement.

Kingston. Jamaica.-Kingston, the
city which was wrecked by earth
quake and ruined more completely by
fire In January. 1907. again takes It's
place as the largest city In the West
Indies outside of Havana. The work
of restoration is almost complete. and
although few vacant sites remain
unocupied the principal shopping CEN
ters and the residential area have all
been built up. The new Kingston is
an immense Improvement upon that
which went to pieces In the catas-
trophe. and there are still works of
public improvement to be underta-
ken.
Almost without exception the new
store buildings are of reinforced con-
crete and are as nearly fireproof as To-
cal conditions have made it possible.
The principal streets are adorned by
colonnades, some OF very imposing
character. In King street all the pub
lie Offices have been brought together
In one block; and another similar
block is about to be erected. The
architect of these blocks of buildings
is Sir Charles Nicholson, who came
specially from England to jamaica to
study the site and prepare the plans
The first block has cost $500, 900.
There is sense of public disappoint-
ment at its appearance. For one thing.
1t is not regarded as being as attrac-
tive as a building of its kind ought to
be. The government authorities, how
ever. profess themselves to be quite
satisfied with the results and propose
to have the second block built along
Identical lines.
Public gardens and open spaces
adorn the principal section of the city,
THE sites of these having been acquired
by the government at considerable
cost. much against the wish of the
taxpayers. The results have. however.
more than justified the expenditure,
and Kingston is today more Of d tropi-
cal town than 1t has ever been before
within modern times.
The government buildings and the
splendid structures of the Bank OF
Nova Scotia have served to alter en-
tirely the appearance of King street
from the sea northward. The harbor
front has been completely restored
and there is now talk of a sea wall or
esplanade being constructed. not only
to facilitate shipping. but to serve as
a driveway or promenade. Plans are
also under consideration for the con-
struction OF a Rew park to cover about
forty-five acres of land.
