FEWER ST0RKS IN ALSAcE
System Of Registration Is Being Tried
to Learn About Migratory
Habits.

Every year the number OF storks
to be seen in Alsace becomes less or
the four nests perched on the big
chimneys on the old roofs OF Strass-
burg, only one has been occupied this
year
In many of the villages the great
migrators have ceased for long time
to relieve the landscape, and it seems
only question of time when the stork
In Alsace will be memory. Various
are the causes assigned for this de-
sertion-the draining OF the marshes,
the multiplication of telephone and
telegraph wires and the smoke from
factory chimneys.
In Germany for the better study OF
storks there has been created sort
Of service in connection with the Edu-
cation Department which tends to set
up an "etat civil" for each bird, or,
In other words, to register them after
the manner which obtains for citizens
in France.
Each bird is captured where possi-
BILE and a metallic disk affixed to its
leg, and German officials, wherever
the birds are believed to migrate, have
Instructions to send to the department
any information they can gather con-
cerning storks who are German sub
Iects. POSSIBLY this labelling may
have something to do with the scare
lty) BY this system of registration
the authorities have learned some
thing Of the migratory habits OF the
bird; for instance, one was found dead
at the Cape of Good Hope whose place
Of origin was eastern Prussia.
A point OF interest relative to the
scarcity of the stork has been brought
under the notice of the German au.
thorities by doctor at Port Eliza
beth, who suggests that they have
been poisoned through eating grass
hoppers or locusts which have been
killed by arsenic. A correspondent,
however, OF an Alsace-Lorraine jour
nal hints that the cause is to be found
nearer at home.

Sharon Hard Hit.

Dayton first" is the answer Of
Sharon, Pa, even in the darkness OF
the worst disaster in its history, to the
offers of aid flowing in from the out
side world The property loss is 81
100000. The dead is probably ten.
This attitude of the afflicted city is
taken because it thinks it can cope
with the situation there itself.
A Joint meeting between council, the
board OF health and the board OF trade
was held to discuss the food situation.
A complaint was made by Edward
Quinn that his wife had been insulted
by one of the state constabulary. A
motion was adopted unanimously that
the state constabulary was no longer
needed in Sharon.

Conditions Much lmproved-Sutferers

Indiana is emerging slowly from the
flood
Improved conditions were reported
from practically every city throughout
the state and the flood waters are re-
ceding to such extent that relief
parties with medicine, food and cloth
ing have been enabled to alleviate the
suffering of thousands marooned.
While first reports OF tremendous
property damage are sustained to a
large extent, indications are that the
loss of life has not been so large as
was believed
The death total cannot be estimated
with any degree OF accuracy until the
flood recedes sufficiently to allow a
search for bodies in the stricken dis
tricts. The property loss will run far
into the millions.

Contract for Gate
Let By Government
to Denuer Company

The Hinman Hydraulic Manufac-
turing company OF Denver has Sc
cured the contract for furnishing the
big head gates for the diversion dam
OF the high line project. The con-
tract price is s6,O79. and the secre-
tary of the interior has authorized
the signing of the contract to be
made public.
Work on the dam is to be carried
on all winter during low water. This
dam will be unique in American en-
gineering, the only other structure
OF its type in this country having
been built in connection with the
Boise irrigation project in southern
Idaho. 1t will not be provided with
movable crest consisting OF large steel
rolls. During the low water period
this rolling crest will be in place to
force the water into the canals, but
in times OF flood it rolls upon the
abutment allowing the high water to
pass. 1t is estimated that it will re-
quire two years for the construction
of this dam as work can be carried
on only during low water period.
