BY HARRY SHREvE.

-HE details of clever little
scheme by which two New
York crooks fleeced about 200
young men of Washington out OF
some loose change is going the
rounds in certain quarters OF the
city. The victims have nothing
TO say. They have been laughed
and jeered at by friends and ac-
ouaintances to such an extent that
a mere mention Of the subject is
q signal for battle and the words
"circus" or marriage" spoken in
their presence is liable to prove an
occasion where the police reserves
will prove useful.
The two crooks appeared in
Washington about a week before
the Ringing Brothers circus play
ed here last May. They had fallen
down on a confidence game they
had framed in Florida and were
at the end of their resources. In
a dingy little room in a lodging
house on lower Pennsylvania ave-
nue., they pooled their possessions
one night and found that between
them they had $3.50. Washing
ton offered them no opportunity
for big game and It was impera-
tive they secure get away money"
A long consultation was held and
the scheme was hatched.
The next morning one Of the
crooks drifted UP to the Postoffice
The Washington times., 1922-08-06

something to do with this situation.
Be as it may, the postoffice box
contained 200 envelopes for M
C the next morning. Each
envelope contained one reserved
seat ticket for the circus perform
ance that evening.
The two crooks were on the
circus lot early. The crowd was
one of the largest in the history Of
circus crowds in Washington, and
they had no difficulty in disposing
of the 200 tickets at regular prices.
Then they each bought glass OF
red lemonade and a hot dog sand
witch and sauntered In the direction
of Union Station.
Circus employees were kept busy
that night putting the quietus on
many little brawls that were con-
stantly breaking out every few
minutes in the reserved seat sec.
ton. Things started when a young
fat man dropped down in a seat
next to one occupied by an elderly
woman and Indignantly exclaimed:
Your letter said you were
twenty-seven years old. Why, you
must be sixty. I wouldn't marry
you II you were worth . million"
Before the elderly lady could re.

can easily kill a person with one

An ostrich is mortally afraid OF
a dog, since its great height pre-
vents it from hitting anything on
the ground.
Whether the ostriches are a
single species or four species is
still an open question. The diff
ferences are slight and the habits
Of the birds are the same. The
most convenient classification
recognizes one species (Struthto
Camelus), with a variety Australis)
in South Africa, another (Moly-
bdophanes) in Somaliland and .
fourth Massaicus), from the Nasal
country in British East Africa.

the feathered tribe of the semi
tropics never changes mates
divorce and separation or remar-
riages are institutions unknown to
the plumed gentry.
II either OF the ostrich couple
dies, the other remains single
throughout the rest Of its days.
They often live to be as old as
ninety years, but seventy-five is
the average.
Many women Of today and yes.

merry with the fine feathers Of the
ostrich, do not know that in wear
ing such adornment they are bear
ing the outward standard Of a bird
which Is noted in research circles
for it's domestication so much akin
to their own sex.
STICK AROUND HOUSE.
No lower living things of our
world are probably so similar in
their home life to the human
species as the ostrich. The father
is a dutiful and attentive husband
and takes turns with the mother
in sitting on the eggs; their sched.
ule in attending to the Matching
duties being as punctual as clock.
work. He even prepares the nest
to house the eggs. There are
usually fifteen, eighteen or twenty
eggs.
The male digs a hole in the
ground, getting down on his breast
bone and plowing backwards with
his feet, describing a circle until
he has dug a round. shallow hole
or nest. The female then lays one
egg every other day until the re-
quired number are available for a
setting.
Turns are taken in sitting on the
eggs, the male sitting on them
during the night and the female
during the day. The male also
relieves the female one hour
during noon, so she can exercise
and water and feed.
EGGS COLD, WIFE WISE.
The male usually goes on" the
eggs at 4 o'clock p. m. and re-
mains until 9 q. m. when he is
relieved by the female. In this
rotation they are precisely pune
tual, never varying half a minute
in their time during the entire
Matching season, forty-two days.
Thus, II the female returns to
take up her domestic burden and
finds the eggs cold, she may know
that friend husband has been out
carousing during the night-but
The Washington times., 1922-08-06


they tell US there is neither dis
trust nor suspicion in the ostrich
family.
The ostrich Is q very. large
struthionoid bird, a native Of Az
rica and Arabia, having only two
toes, corresponding to the third
and fourth Of other birds. Over
thirty years ago the first ones
were imported to this country and
taken to California farms at Los
Angeles.
Since then they have enjoyed
great increase, principally in such
warm or semi.tropical climates as
Florida. The ostrich Is the largest
of existing birds. reaching a height
Of six to eight feet, with long neck,
short wings and long. powerful
legs given to great speed. The
plumage of the male Is black, with
white feathers at the end Of the
wings and tail-much esteemed for
ornament-fans and hats. Military
and fraternal organizations use the
ostrich feather frequently in their
head-gear.
They are reared and domestt-
Gated on special acreage known as
Ostrich farms" They are run in
a mating pen until they are four
years old, when they pair-off. OF
their own volition, and begin their
family career.
SPROUT SPEEDILY.
The ostrich grows very rapidly.
When first Matched they are half
the size Of a grown chicken; Of u
speckled. mottled color. and when
six months old can stand six feet
high and over.
1t is a frequent spectacle at some
ostrich farms to see children riding
them bareback and driving them to
a "billy-goat" wagon. Often even
grown people take a ride behind the
ostrich. A famous Florida bird,
Olive w. Jr.. Is very adept for driv.
ing. When on a half-mile track
drawing his fifty-pound sulky and
placed with a fast horse. he can go
to the one-quarter-mile post in thir,
ty-two seconds, and the half-mile
post in one minute four seconds.
The horse is kept behind the bird,
as they do not like a horse behind
them. and SO will always go the
faster to keep in the lead.
When nine months old they are
plucked for their feathers for the
first time, and then every nine
months thereafter. The first crop
