Wisdom Of tf,e Anc.eneA.

It is now believed that the ancfents
used telescopes for astronomical pur
poses. In excavations in Babylonia a
lens has been found which was un.
doubtedly used in a telescope cen
turtles before the birth of Christ. The
ancients, both Chaldean and Egyptian,
were acquainted with the planetary
system, knew that the earth was
round, could calculate meridians ex-
actly, calculate the orbits of the plan
cts; in fact. paid great attention to
eclipses of the sun and moon, to oc-
cultatfons Of the planets, to the mo-
lions of the planets, and the determi-
nation Of their periodic and synodic
times, to the construction of tables Of
the fixed stars and the mapping Of
them into consultations and to set
Ting the exact length Of the true solar
year. 1t is fair to presume, then, that
they had telescopes to aid them in
their work.

FIERCE FIGHT IN THE AIR
5Iackbirds Victorious In Combat With
Sparrows for the Possession
of Nesting Places.

A flock GO 300 blackbIrds, which for
a week HID been lowering over that
part of Harlem just above Morning
side Heights arrived just Mt shutdown
the other evening in a vacant lot to
the east of the subway station at
One Hundred and Twenty-ninth street
and Broadway. With a tremendous
hubbub, as If matters of vast import
ance were in the air, they settled into
the trees, whence, presently, a small
committee flew forth and headed
straight for the recesses beneath the
elevated platform, which is fifty feet
above the street. In this shelter are
the winter nests of about 1870 spar
rows.
The committee was received coldly
and as its members dipped tantaliz-
lngly down to the level of the tracks
the sparrows came forth and drove
them off. 1t was a declaration of war.
Over from the lot came all the black
birds chattering angrily, and over the
tracks and around and about the sta
ton there was a battle In the air.
1t was a bitter fight and noisy
one and it lasted all of ten minutes
The uproar halted the homegoing Har-
lemites on the platform and brought
forth from the saloons below a crowd
Of gaping men who cheered from the
sidewalks and laid small wagers on
the outcome.
At the end of ten minutes the spar.
rows returned into the darkness, leav-
ing behind them six of their number
dead, while from the station roof the
blackbirds twittered and chirped their
song of victory.

HAD TO RUN HUSBAND, TOO
Burden on Mistress Of Farm Was Not
Lessened by the Presence Of
Hubby.

clined to repine at her hard luck in
having 80 much work to do.

said, in a tone which indicated that
she was ready to. resign.
How many acres have you?" the
traveller inquired.
"A hundred and forty; twenty In
wheat, sixty in corn, ten in medder
an paster, an the balance scatterln'
an woods"
Got any stock?"
Ten head Nv cattle, two cows, six
hogs and work critters for the place
And you run the whole businessT
Indeed do; every hide an hair Nv

"But you have hired help"
IN course, but faint hired help that
takes the load often a body" There
was philosophy in that statement, and

Haven't you got husband?" he
next asked, with good deal of sym
pathy.
YES" she responded, very slowly

Girls Trap Catches Mouse.

At last new way has been dis
covered for catching mice And a
Broadway show girl is the discoverer
of the new device. 1t happens that
she CHANGED across the scheme purely
by accident. She purchased a dozen
oysters in the shell and LEFT them on
the table in the kitchenette of her
apartment while she went to her
boudoir to have few bouts with the
rouge box. When she returned to the
kitchenette she found firmly caught
In the shell of one Of the oysters a
dead mouse. The OYSTER had been
dragged fully foot from the plate
and traces on the table showed there
had been a struggle. Mr.. Mouse had
Ventured into the oyster when he
opened his shell to get some air, head
first, and Mr.. Oyster just clamped to-
gether like wise and crushed the
unfortunate rodent. Since then every
show girl is leaving oysters in all
parts of their apartments.
