PAROLED FOR
NEW HEARING
Dealers Arrested at Open
Markst--"Bad Chickens"

Samuel Zlotkin and Louis Ehlin,
dealers in farm products from Mill
hurst, who we're arrested yesterday
for attempting to sell alleged dis
eased chickens in the open market,
at New Brunswick avenue and Fay
cite street, were paroled this morn
ing until Tuesday, when they will be
given a further hearing.
The arrest was made on complaint
of Health Inspector Samuel 7. Frost,
who complained that the men violat-
ed the city ordinance in attempting
to sell diseased chickens. Recorder
Henry w. Kehoe made an inspection
and found that the fowls were dis
eased, but he had no evidence before
him to prove to his satisfaction that
an attempt was really made to sell
them. For that reason he laid the
case over. In the meanwhile the
health authorities will attempt to
gather evidence against the licensed

Styles In Birds Nests.

Birds nests have changed IN style
since I was a boy" c. j. Maynard said
before the Boston Scientific society IN
his paper on Methods of Bird Study"
'In those days the orioles nest hung
from the pendulous elm branches, it
self a long, swaying nest. Today the
birds have taken to the ornamental
trees with stiff branches, and they
make a shorter nest hat does not
swing so much. I do not know wheth-
er 1t is because there are fewer elms
or more birds, but the fact Of the
change in the shape of the nests is
valid."-Boston Transcript.

Any Young Man a Take Examina-

Washington, June 24.-Political In
fuence is no longer necessary for q
young man to obtain an appointment
as second lieutenant in the army. An

ton Of General Wood, chief of staff.
that any man with a complete or par
tial college education, in good moral
standing and who al produce letters

the competitive examination.
This unusual procedure is being
taken in order to fill vacancies in the

MONKEYS WITH FEVER ESCAPE
And Now Hospital Officials Who In
nocuIated Them Fear Result.

New York, June 24.-Two monkeys,
which had been innoculated with the
germs of scarlet fever, either escaped
or were stolen from the experimental
department of the Willard Parker hos
pital at Sixteenth street and the East
river.
The officials OF the hospital have no
mean of knowing whether the ami
mails are now members of some animal
dealers family or are chasing around
town on their W hook or are the
cherished ~playthings of some child.
The fact that the scarlet fever germs
ought to produce their effect on the
small beasts some time today is caus
ing disquietude to those who are try
ing to find them before harm is done.
