SOLVES BIG MYSTERY
For Fifteen Years the Doctor Has Been Grand High Pioeon.F eeder
 of His eiohborhood-Henco the Story.

Chicago.-This is the solution Of the mystery of the theft of surgical instru- ments from the office of Dr. E. w. Hunter, 1113 East Sixty-third street. It is plain unvarnished tale, and might be entitled Peanuts, Probes and Pigeons"
 It begins with the pigeons. They are the ones that get so familiar on short acquaintance at the University avenue station of the "L." There are bodies and bodies of them and they be- have as if the station platform were theirs by prescriptive right. If you offer them peanut from the slot ma chine, so conveniently at hand, they will take it as if they were collecting debt long overdue. If you don't offer them peanut they look responsibility at you. If there were an interpreter of pigeon-English at hand, as in Mark Twain's story of the hermit and the jaybirds. he would probably tell you they were remarA1ng:
 "This must be one of those pikers from the Gold Coast neighborhood!
 Throws Peanuts to the Birds.
 The principal reason the University avenue pigeons are so cocksure of their own privileges is Doctor Hunter. For 15 years he has had an office over- looking the "L" station. For the 15 years he has been the Grand High Pig eon-Feeder of the neighborhood. He not only throws peanuts to the birds, but he levies on his friends. Patients who visit his office always take in few pennies to buy the succuleht fruit of the goober pea.
 At the back of his office is an old storeroom, with openings through which the pigeons can fly whenever they are cold or sleepy. And this is where the probes come in.
 Miscreant Tracked Down.
 The doctor has fine collection of surgical instruments. They are the pride of his heart and the delight of

 This treaty will be rendered to the senate for it's advice and consent by a democratic president" said Mir. Taft, ''and if it be a treaty that ought to be confirmed that is certainly no reason why ppublNan should vote against it.
