cranberry sauce. She ordered fine
young turkey. She wasn't nervous
about the turkey-that was just about
as easy as chicken.
Yes, she was planning to have the
old-time Christmas dinner. She
wouldn't tell Bert. She would sur
prise him. And then, If she did tell
him, she might be more nervous about
the things she had planned to do. feel
ing that he was going to be so proud
Of her that she couldn't fulfill his ex-
pectations Of her success.
SO she worked and planned and
schemed.
And that Christmas eve when Bert
kissed her goodnight she smiled to
herself as she heard him say:
"Well, It's quite true. People hnve

make his Marian feel uncomfortable.
And now his own family were doing 1t.

Marian had left the room now. But
! she could hear the defending note In
Bert's voice, 9nd at the same time a
note Of sadness that their dinner was
going to be SO simple.
She wanted to rush In now and tell
them all that 1t wouldn't he so simple.
and to put her arms around Bert's
neck and kiss him. He was standing
up for her. And they were oil try
ing to be critical. And she had in

MUNICIPAL TELEPHONE

The new municipal telephone system
is nearing completion. This work has
been held up somewhat due to delays IN
the arrival Of essential material arrlV-
ilg in poor condition thereby neceSSl-
tating replacement.
The new system entirely replaces the
old. The only part OF the old system
that could be used in tie new in
stallation was the telephone instruments,
some telephone poles, crassarms, insu-
Iators, and some of the line wire that
will be salvaged
lhe old system using one wire and a
ground has been replaced by a system
Of complete metallic circuits. This en-
tails iusttWice as much wire in the sys-
tenn as in the old installation, but it elimi-
mates the so-called Gross talk, and
gives better results in general.
With tn. cables on the back sheet
all telephone poles on the narrow part
of Main Street between the Grand hotel
and the Market will be eliminated The
use of the cable also ldoes away with the
old wiring which was continually being
entangied and crossed, especially after
wi ldy weather.
A new switch board, especially manu-
featured for tropical use, mas been secur-

lines. This, it is believed will take care
of all present needs. The old board OF
two hundred lines capacity will be over,
hauled and held ready for future expan-
sion. This will give he new system an
ultimate capacity of five hundred tele-
phones, just ttwo and one half times that
on the old system.
The present phones will be gradually
transferred to the new system without
any interruption of service. During
this period of transition, however, there
will probably be numerous crosses and
errors in calling numbers due to the In
conveniences resulting from temporarily
operating two switch boards. The tele-
phone service requests the forbearance
of the customers in these matters un-
til the new system is entirely in opera

PIGEON BRINGS PLEA
FOR AID 1900 MILES
Message Says Naturalist Lis
Lost in Yellowstone Ma
tional Park.

A blue and white carrier pigeon cir
cled Columbus Circle two or three times
last night shortly before IL o'clock. and
then fluttered to the pavement In front
OF Chllds's restaurant at the corner OF
Fifty-ninth street It lay exhausted on
the sidewalk In the centre OF curious
gathering, until Patrolman Wesley Will
son came along. The policeman put the
bird in his pocket and took 1t to the
West Forty-seventh street station.
Ii There the pigeon was examined by
Lieut.. Callahan. The Lieutenant found
band on one of his legs. and behind
the band he found this note:
Notify Dan Singer. Belleclaire Hotel
am lost on Hoodoo Mountains. Yel-
lowstone Park Send help, provisions
and pack horses"
The note was dated August 1s. which
was last Saturday, and signed HELLER, I
Lieut.. Callahan called Singer on the
telephone. and Singer said that he was
a naturalist and a lecturer and that the
note was Edmund Heller, a widely
known naturalist and co-author with
Theodore Roosevelt of Life Histories OF
African Game Animals" Edmund Hell
ler spent two years with Col. Roosevelt
In Africa, and Is one Of the best known
naturalists and writer's on animal life
in the United States
Singer went 70 the West Forty
seventh street station after Lieutenant
Callahan had talked to him over the
telephone. He said there that ne ano
Heller had lived together at the Belle
claire for some time, and that Heller
had left New York ten days ago foi
Yellowstone Park to study the anima
life there. On August 8 a New York
newspaper printed an interview witf
Heller In which he said that he was
going to the park for the Roosevelt vile
Life Station of Syracuse to make
survey on the animal life OF the Yellow
stone. 1t was his intention to take still
pictures Of bird life. The pigeon found
by the policeman, Mr. Singer said. was
one of flock which he and Mr.. Heller
had been training on the roof OF the
Belleclaire Hotel, and that the same
bird was one that was used by Col
Roosevelt during his travels In Africa
AS soon as he had talked with Lieut..
Callahan and read the message signed
Heller" Singer told newspaper men
that he had sent this telegram to Ned
Frost at Cody. Wyo.:
start at once Spare no expense.
Best ponies and provisions. Heller lost
southeast Hoodoo Mountains"
The distance from Yellowstone Park
20 New York city is approximately 1900
miles, and the pigeon would have to
traverse 1t In five days. an average
speed of more than $50 miles a day.
Mr. Singer admitted last night that this
was a rather unusual fight, and said
that so far as he knew IT was record.
There is no Hoodoo Mountain in Yellow
stone Park, but there is Hoodoo Peak.
