II. G. BREMNER LOSES BATTLE.
Jersey Congressman Dies OF Cancer.
Radium Treatment Unavailing.

Baltimore. Feb. 5.-Robert Gum
Bremner. member Of Congress from
the Seventh New Jersey District, and
editor of the PassaiC Daily Herald,
died to-day Of cancer at local sani-
tarium, where he had been undergo
ing radium treatment since DGCCm-
ber. lie had been suffering from the
disease for four years. He was 50
years old and married.
Mr.. Bremner came to n Sanitarium
here to try the radium treatment at-
ter physicians in this country and Eu-
rope had vainly tried TO cure him. II
was found that the disease had made
such inroads that the fight against
death would be y ade with all the
odds against BrCn 1cr. He was OPP
timistic, however, and tubes contain
ing 100000 worth of radium were
applied to the growth. For time
the patient seemed to improve. and
members Of his family frequently cX-
pressed the belief that he would re-
cover. They clung to this hope until
few days ago, when he was SeiZed
with sinking spell. From that TIME
on Mr.. Bremncr grew steadily
weaker, although he several times
rallied in a surprising manner, aided

that he would get well. He declared
that he wanted to go back to Con-
greSs to fight for a bill to have gov

that the mineral could be at the dis
posal Of the rich and poor alike.
Mr.. Bremner was warm personal
friend Of President Wilson, who was
kept constantly advised Of his cOndi-
tiOn and who frequently sent him
messages Of sympathy and encour-
agement. Mr.. Bremner's election TO
Congress was accomplished while he

STRANGE BIRD OF DESERT
chapparal Cock Said by cattlemen to
Build Spike Fence Around
Rattlesnake.

Does the road runner or Chapparal
cock snare the rattlesnake by build
ing fence Of cholla spikes around
him and then dispatch the reptile at
leisure? The story, received with
skepticism, has often been told about
this bird Of the southwest. Mr.. John
Feeney Of Elmira recently went to
Arizona to learn the truth. He learned
from some OF the pioneers that they
we're ready to make affldavits that
they had witnessed the capture and
death Of rattlesnakes In the aforesaid
fashion. Mr.. Sidney de Long of Bis
bee affirmed that he had seen pair
OF road runners. evidently mates, do
the trick. Cattlemen were prolific in
experiences of the kind, but the Ari-
zona Historical society had no data.
The road runner is such a strange
bird that anything told about 1t is
believed. DR.. William T. Hornaday, in
his American Natural History" Is
credulous himself. The bird, he says,
is remarkably odd In form and also
In Its habits" He thus describes It:
ut Is about the size Of q small
S~O"b WIN q LdIA do IOuS db
body and head, and legs that are so
long and strong they seem like those
OF grouse, save that the toes are
longer. The body ia slender, but the
neck and head are large and the head
has a conspicuous crest The beak
is large. Although the bird has wings
1t seldom uses them, and they must
constantly be growing smaller through
disuse."
Mice, lizards, snakes, centipedes,
and insects are provender. The doctor
testifies that it is the most nervous OF
birds, abnormally suspicious and phe-
nomenally quick in its movements. 1t
flies little, but leaps far and high with
closed wings. He estimates that II
the road runner "goes on 10000 years
In its present habits" 1t will cease to
fly at all and will be able to leap 20
feet In the air. This remarkable de-
scrlption Of the uneasy and elusive
bird Of the Arizona desert prepares
one for "the many strange yarns" that
have been told about 1t, including the
story Of how 1t traps the somnolent
rattler. In the interests Of veracious
natural history Mr.. Frank M. Chap
man, should visit Arizona and write
a monograph about Geococcyx cali
fornianus.
