BIRDS OF NEW ZEALAND.
Almost All Killed by Imported Yer
min-New Protection Laws.

From the Adelaide Advertiser
Nearly every native bird in New Zes-
land will be absolutely protected by law
this year The animals protection act
provides that 1910. and In every third
year after that may, at the discretion OF
the governor in council, be declared a
closed season for native game. The alb
sence of bird life in New Zealand is al
ready most noticeable. T Mackenzie, a
member of the government, as the result
of recent journey through the country,
writes:
Between Nelson and Hokitika hardly
any bird life at all is to be met with: the
imported vermin have done their work OF
bird destruction only too well. In the
region from Ross to the south, however.
the tut and the pigeon are to be seen
making bright the landscape with their
presence.
AT the Forks / met a gentleman who
took great interest in bird life on the
coast, and. he told me that the weka.
kiwi and kawakawa had disappeared. and
he believed that the stoats and weaseis
killed every bird in the country. He had
himself just lost q half-grown black
swan which he had reared. He had found
1T lying on its back with a cash In It's
throat.
THE stoats and weasels were often
seen in the neighborhood OF the lakes
where the ducks made their nests. and II
was suspected that the vermin paid due
attention to their eggs" 3

GOOD ROADS IN MISSOURI.
A Movement That Promises Results
in Many Directions.
From the BOSTON Monitor

I rom the Boston Monitor.
The exultation with which the local
press receives the news that Lexington,
Mo. Friday last, with the aid of the
"embattled farmers of the neighborhood,
voted $4,000 in bonds for the purpose
of building roads in a road district eight
miles square will recall to those who can
look back that distance the time when
the counties and towns In the same
territory we're enthusiastically voting
bonds to aid in the construction of rail-
roads. The railroads have contributed
their share to the development of the
west The reaction in sentiment which
has resulted from the local loss of con-
troll Of those bond-aided railroads has not
affected the proposition that every dol
lar invested in them has been repaid
many times over.
One of the lessons learned in recent
years in Missouri, as we'll as other states,
however is that the railroads alone do
ed population and new industrial condi-
tions. 1t has been found that good road
communication between the farm and the
railroad is only secondary to good COM
munication between the local market and
the centers of consumption. The vote OF
Lexington marks the beginning OF a
movement that promises important re-
suits, not only for the Missouri FARMER
but for all those who are In any degree
dey,endent upon his hauls to market, and
must mean eventually considerable less
enine of the tax that now falls heavily
,Ipon the produce Of the farm between
the time when it is taken from the SOL
and the time when 1t reaches the uiu-
mate consumer.

THE FRESH GATED CRACKER
Is He Going to Odttrot the faded
Northern Farmer?
rom the independent


The cracker of the south is man
with a lot Of suppressed power. He has
never been brought up to the modern
ways Of doing and thinking, but he Is
proving himself adaptable.
Think of a race or a breed or class
coming on as late as into the fore part
Of the twentieth century without railroad
or telegraph or telephone. with eigh-
teenth century schools and newspapers
and preaching!
The best farmers that l know in Flor
ida are crackers. They are fresh gated,
while too many nOrtherners have become
tagged and jaded with fast driving and
fast living before they get here.
7 mean that the children of the Puri-
fans have had whole continent 10 con-
ouer. while slavery hemmed In these
southern whites and smothered their &C
tiyfty 1t will not do for those who have
failed in northern enterprises to come
down here and expect to surpass. II
worn out and unable to adjust them
selves to conditions at home they will
surely fail here.
The cracker is immensely inquisitive.
and that enables him to, pick up new
notions easily. 1t was good stock to
start with and 1t will do its work vet.
He buys new tools, likes machinery. Is
GOOD at detail. and there Is no question
aybut there being in him the elements OF

TESTING BIG PLANT
Capitol Power House in Use in
a Few Weeks.
COST NEARLY ONE MILLION
Entirely Independent of District Of
Columbia System.
COMPLETE IN ALL DEVICES
Mechanical Completeness Is Mar
Enthusiastically Generated
if Boilers Fail.
COMPLETE IN ALL DEVICES

Testing out has begun at the new light.
heat and power plant that will supply the
federal buildings on Capitol Hill.
Within a few weeks-the time has not
yet been definitely set-the million-dollar
plant will be working The big buildings
on the hill then will be as completely d.
vorced from the District system as though
they were isolated on the Sandwich Is
lands.
The plant is generally referred to as the
"million-dollar plant 1t will cost almost
that before 1t is ready to rum
1t will furnish light, heat and power to
the Capitol. the Library of Congress, the
House and Senate office buildings and to
the new Supreme Court building when
that is built Probably the Marine Hos
pital, the coast and geodetic survey and
the Botanic Gardens will be hitched up
with the system when it is completed
The plant has been so built that it can
carry the whole load with something to
spare.
Capacity Beyond Demands on It.
That is the only criticism that has been
made Of the plant, namely, that it is too
good. But the virtue of the arrangement
is that it will be equal to any call that is
made on it without ever going to the
limit of its present capacity.
The big plant is just south of the Cap
itcl. about half way between the building
and the river. Under the ground and
running from the plant itself to the river
bank there are two big pipes, one four
foot sewer of concrete and the other
thirty-six-inch castirOn pipe.
The sewer, entirely Independent Of the
District system, enters the river. The
iron pipe. which is, as it were, the main
artery Of the system, runs from the
basement Of an inconspicuous little house
out over the water to the main plant,
thousand yards away.
This iron pipe takes the water from the
river for condensing purposes and boiler
feed. 1t is supplied with three centrifu
gal pumps down below tide level. When
the full head OF water is driven up to
the plant it carries one and One-half mill
lion gallons of water an hour.
The little house is built of brick and
concrete, with the piles reaching far be-
low the river bed. 1t is a manless sta
ton. When the motors are put in posi-
ton the house can be locked up as tight
as a tin can and the whole system-for
taking in water and changing from the
use of one intake pipe to the other-can
all be controlled from the power plant, a
mile away.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-05-20
Description of Plant.

The plant itself is an unpretentious-
looking light brick and stone building
with two stacks. each 212 feet high, tow
ering above it. But it is the heart of the
whole system for the light, heat and
power Of the big buildings it will serve.
Down under the street there is an ag-
gregate Of COCO feet OF concrete tunnel
high enough for a man to walk upright.
and carrying beside big steam pipe that
runs to each of the several buildings that
are being supplied. One can walk under
ground from the power plant into the
basement of the Library. the Capitol or
either of the Office buildings without ever
going into the open air.
The thing that will strike the layman
most forcibly about the big steam pipe
is that allowance has been made for its
getting longer or shorter with the heat
and cold. 1t is almost as thick as a
mans body. but at every $50 feet there
is a steam-tight expansion joint that will
take care of any elongation of the big
pipe. This joint is packed so that it is
steam tight. 1t has a smooth inner sur
face that can slide back and forth and
allow for foot of variation in the Sec
ton of the pipe line it is set to guard.

MYSTERY IN SUICIDE
Body of Unidentified Man
Found in Capitol Grounds. /.
BULLET HOLE IN TEMPLE
Names of Richmond Firms on Cloth.
ing Furnish Clue on Which
Police Work.

Police officials are trying to have
identified the body of a man who COM
mitted suicide in the Capitol grounds
last night or this morning The finding
of the names of Richmond. Va, firms
on the clothing Of the man caused the
police to believe he may have come
from that city, and the Richmond police
are assisting in the effort to find out
who the man was.
l.. B. Moore, captain of the Capitol
police force found the body ON the grass
near the air shaft in the southwest
corner of the grounds, about $50 o'clock
this morning. There was bullet
wound in his right temple, and a pistol
was found on the grass near the body
Policeman ]. L. Waters of the fourth
precinct was summoned and remained in
charge of the body until the arrival of
the wagon from the morgue. A search
of the clothing of the dead man failed
to reveal a letter, note or other writing
which would identify him.
Initials on Watch Charm.
The initials "F E. S. on his watch
charm and laundry marks on his cloth
ing. 'T-120-x,' may assist in clearing up
the matter. Policeman Sandberg photos-
rapher Of the police department, photo
graphed the body. He thinks the man
was about fifty years old.
The dead man had no upper teeth, his
lower teeth were bad and he had dark
hair, with a reddish mustache mixed with
gray. Tattoo marks were sfOund on his
left forearm, dots having been tattooed on
his left wrist and on the back of the left
hand. The mans suit was Of dark brown
mixed goods, and he wore a black tie
with red dots, high patent leather shoes
and black derby hat. The white shirt
bore the trade mark of Miller & Rhodes,
Va, while the name of o. H.
Berry, Richmond clothier, was on the
hanger of the coat.
Inquiries made by the police failed to
lind any person who had heard the report
Of pistol shot in the vicinity of the
Capitol grounds last night or this morn
Ing.
The body was cold when found by Capt
Moore.

Four Big Turbines.

Up above the pipe tunnel in the body
CT the power house there is set of four
big Parson turbines that run the plant.
They take steam at a pressure of 175
pounds. Each of the four is of 1900
k.lowats capacity, SO that the whole bat
terry will generate 5000 kiiowats.
The battery Of boilers that supplies
power to the engines and heating system
consists of sixteen 6OO-horsepower boil
ers with automatic stokers attached. Up
in the roof of the boiler house there is
storage capacity for 1000 tons of coal.
This is brought to the side of the build
ing and weighed on a section of railroad
track connected with big scale inside.
In little metal pocket in front of this
scale bar there is room for card to be
dropped. When the scale is set the
pressure of button prints on the card
the weight of the car and it's load.
Then the bottom Of the car is opened and
the coal drops down to the basement of
the plant. The weight of the empty car
is printed on the card also giving the
weight of the load of coal.
When the load has dropped to the base
ment it passes through a machine like a
stone crusher, that reduces all the coal
to a uniform size. Thence it is thrown
on an endless chain of buckets that carry
it up to the coal storage loft in the top
Of the plant.
There it is dropped on an endless belt
that distributes it to the coal hoppers.
From there it is shot into the feeders
without having been touched by hand
since it left the coal car.
Interlocking Devices.
These automatic hoppers and stokers
are a revelation in themselves. They
have al interlocking device so that a
hopper above the stoker cannot be filled
till it has been entirely emptied into the
stoller
Also the hopper registers its contribu-
ton to the stoker so that at the end Of
twenty-four hours the engineer can tell
lust how much coal has been fed to each
boiler and how they compare In efficiency.
The steam pipes leading from the boil
ers to the engines are almost as compli-
Gated as the moves on chess board. SO
steam to any engine. the valves being
arranged like the stops on organ, so
that any combination can be played in
case of temporary breakdown of any
part of the plant
But the provision against accident does
not stop there. In the ground floor there
Is a big storage battery room with ca
pacity of 1000 amperes. If the whole Of
the plant should stop working for any
reason the storage battery would be
thrown on automatically and the lights.
ma chine shop and cranes would run off
the batteries SO that repairs could be
made.
This automatic, switch is an ingenious
ARRANGEMENT. So long as the plant is
working the current holds up the switch.
But If for any reason the current dies
down, the magnetism of the switch is de-
stroyed and the contact falls through the
space of about an inch and puts the stor-
age battery into service.
or course il the plant burned down or
was blown up with dynamite the lights in
the Capitol would go out. But short Of
such an accident it does not appear tl1at
anything is going to interrupt the illumi-
nation.
