Senator George r. Mclean OF Con-

he asked.
He quoted DR.. Field, Massachusetts
game commissioner, in reply to the
criticism that the bin would encourage
the destruction of American birds.
DIR. Field appeared before a congress
sional committee and said he had
prosecuted seventy five milliners fol-
selling the plumage OF native birds,
and in every instance the dealer as
serted he could not tell the native
from the foreign plumage when 1t was
received from the dealer.
1T was found In these cases that
all manner OF beautiful American birds
were killed and their plumage sent to
Berlin, London or Paris and there
mounted and returned to this country
ms foreign plumage. How easy, In
these circumstances, for the traders
who appeared before the finance COM
mittee to swear they never deal In
American birds. And how clear 1t is
that only by the strictest guard over
U imports can we prevent the cum
ming dealers from stealing our birds
ana selling them back to us as foreign
birds.
1T is commended by the trade that
the enactment of this law will throw
out OF employment those now engaged
In 1t. The savages who do the killing
scarcely viii excite our sympathy. As
for the milliners, there IL ample proof
that the trade VIII be quickly diverted
to artificial lines, which win multiply
tenfold the labor now required to,
mount the natural plumes.
The plea that the feathers OF game
birds should be admitted Is easily In
swered- Game birds are and will be
Imported with their feathers on, and
this law will In no way affect the trade
In game birds. Where the plumage
Of game birds Is imported 1t is taken
In the nesting season and the bodies
OF the birds are thrown away. The
tons Of ptarmigan wings recently i'm
ported from Russia meant the slaugh-
ter In the spring of tens of thousands
OF game birds for their wings only.
AS long as birds feathers are worth
their weight In gold the birds that
happen to produce them will be hunted
to the uttermost parts OF the earth.
Nearly all the civilized nations pro-
hibit the killing OF plumage and In
sectivorous birds by treaty or law, or
both, but there is still a vast field I'M

EXTEND TIME OF EXHIBIT.

Naval Academy authorities have

Instead of closing the exhibit to-
day, as had been originally planne d,
the models will remain on view at
the auditorium on Monday and Tues

that enlisted men attached to the
Academy and the ships, as we'll a $

In the case of the submarines il is

as happened to one of the submarines
two years ago with disastrous re-
suits. rsa-.s
The great oil tanks in the battle
ships have been found to contain
deadly oil fumes after they have been
emptied of their contents. 1t is in
tended that the helmets shall serve
as protection to the mechanics who
are obliged to enter these tanks and
compartments. Their use is also con-
templated in the rescue of firemen or
boiler tenders overcome by bursting
steam pipes.

Flnoer Nails.

It is always amusing to speculate
on the character of ones neighbor A
very simple aid in so doing is to watch
the nails If a mans or woman's
nails are long and slender you may
be quite certain the person is not so
robust physically as the possessor of
short, broad nails
Whereas, men and women with the
long. narrow type of nail are invet-
crate Missionaries, those having short
nails are almost always conspicuous
by the strength Of their logical pow
ers. II is the latter who make the
best and most reliable critics.
A further and almost certain char
acteristic of long-nailed people is their
intense depreciation of themselves
and their own efforts in any branch
of work The feeling almost amounts
to pessimism with them. Such a
point OF view, however, seldom wor.
ries those possessing short nails In
fact. more often than not rather the
reverse is the case; they are inclined
to be oversure OF themselves.
