shielded from the street. cut off from the glare Of the

SENATOR M'LEAN IS
CHAMPION OF BIRDS
Connecticut Member Would Bar
Importation of All PIumage
Except 0Striches.

Senator George P. Mclean, of Con-
necticut. took the floor today when the
tariff debate opened as the legislative
champion of birds. He spoke in favor
of having retained in the tariff bill
the clause inserted b. the House and
stricken out by the Senate to prohibit
the importation of all bird plumage,
except that OF ostriches.

up In arms against the prohibition of
the importation of pIumage. They

JOHN CLARK NAMED
AS BOTANIC HEAD
He Is Named as Acting Chief
of Gardens Following Death
of Mr.. Reynolds.

John Clark. eiEhty-two years old. has
been named acting superintendent of
the National Botanic Bardens here. a
position to which he is the logical sue
cessor by reason Of the death of two
men who have held that office within
a year.
At the time of the death of Supertn-
T. ndent ". r. Smith several months
ago Mr.. Clark WAS a prOpaSat0r In tn
gardens. and when {. Leslie Reynolds
was promoted from assistant superin-
tendent to superintendent of the gar
dens. MT. Clark was named for the va
CanCy. The death Of Mr.. REYNOLDS las
Wednesday again left the superintend-
ency vacant. and Elliott Wood, super
inteGent of public buildings and grounds.
has given Mr.. Clark the active man
agement of the gardens. and II is pos
sible he will be named to fill the place
permanently.
Mr. Clark is Scotchman by birth
and was a lifelong friend of Super
intendent Smith In 1854 Mr.. Smith
wrote him in Scotland. offering him the
place of assistant superintendent If he
would come to America. Mr.. Clark de-
Clined, and did not emigrate till nearly
forty-five years later, and on his ar
rival here accepted a place as prOpi-
gator. BY a curious coincidence, on
the death of Mr.. smith he succeeded to
the position of assistant superintendent
of the gardens, a place he had declined
hfty-nine years before.
