BIRDS FIGHT THEIR IMAGES.
But SO Do Fish, for That Matter, According to
Darwin.

A correspondent for the Scotsman recently re-
ported what he described as the curious freak" Of
a blackbird flying against parlor window many
times at the same spot continuously. Such an In.
cident is not uncommon. Birds have been known
to fight for hours At time, day after day, with
their own image reflected in pane OF glass; peck
Ing and futtering against the pane and quite ex-
hausting themselves in their fury to demolish the
supposed rival II is another instance Of how the
arts of our civilization corrupt and confuse the
birds.
II is the same with fishes. Darwin tells a
story of pike in an aquarium separated by plate
glass from fish which were It's proper food In
trying to get at the fish the pike would often dash
with such violence against the glass as to be COM
pletely stunned II did this for more than three
months before It learned caution. Then when
the glass removed the pike would not attack
those particular fish. but would devour others

For thirty years it has been the
standard remedy for female ills, and
has cured thousands of women who
have been troubled with such all

Aviator is Dashed to Death.

San Antonio, May 10.-Lieut.
George E. NJ. Kelley, Of the Thir-
teenth Infantry, U. S. A., was killed
this morning in a fall from a Curtiss
aeroplane at Fort Sam Houston.
He was making a flight, and when
about fifty feet from the ground shot
forward from his seat, landing on his
head. His skull was fractured, and
he died in a few moments without
regaining consciousness.
Kelley was a pupil Of Glenn Cur
tiss in aviation, and came here about
three weeks ago from San Diego,
Cal, where he received his first les
sons. 1t is believed the accident was
caused by the unexpected starting Of
the engine while Kelley was making
a landing.
