SCANDAL OCCURS
 IN BIRD COLONY
Pelican Indicted as Trout Hog," Which Lives on
 Lake Fish

Yellowstone Park. Wyo., September 2.-Excltement is rife in the wild animal community of the park since the scandal about Mir. Pelican re- ceived public attention. The ducks are ouacking about it. the squirrels are chattering it and the bobcats are scattering 1t broadcast in their shrill voice.
 Throughout all the whispers and nudges of neighbors as he passes, MT. Pelican maintains his stately mien. seemingly unconscious of the jibes of tho multitude His motions would indicate he still holds his valued place in the community.
 His trouble started with the charge by Prof. Henry B. Ward. head of the department of zoology of the Univer- sity of Illinois. that he is trout "hog" and violator of all the tenets of good rportmanship. Proof of these charges probably will moan that Mir Pelican will become an outcast with everyones door closed to him and everyone's hand against him.

RICHMOND,s TRIBUTE TO THE
 LATE FOREST DABNEY CARR


 The scores of friends of the late Forest Dabney Carr and his lovely wife will read with pleasure the beautiful tribute paid to the former whose untimely death occurred just a skort time ago.
 Mir. Carr went to Richmond a year ago and later came back to Birming ham to claim the lovely Miss Minnie MoNeill as his bride and during their short residence in Richmond the hap py couple made many warm friends. who, by their expressions of sympathy, evidenced their genuine friendship for both MT. and Mrs. Carr.
 The Richmond Times Dispatch of August 16, the day after MT. Carr was drowned. said "editorially:"
 eiFar beyond the borders of his own state the untimely passing of Forest Dabney Carr, gifted Virgin ian, will be mourned by a multi tude. For his wonderful voice and his rare worth as a teacher he was krown and honored even beyond the coasts of his country; among the people of Virginia he held high place which might have been called unique. Few indeed of the music lovers among his own people have missed the joyful privilege of hear ing not once, but many times, the sus,erbly rich voice he possessed. And other thousands not of virginia have seized with eagerness every such opportunity. The death Of one SO endowed is loss which may not be, measured. Virginians in every walk of life will pause to mark his passing with profound sorrow.

Court of Last Resort Upholds
Dismissal of City's Suit
to Obtain Property.
TRACKS ARE TO REMAIN
Ejectment Action Started in
1918, Accusing Railroad
of Trespass.

The legal fight which the city of
New York has been conducting for
more than three years attacking the
title Of the New York Central Rail-
road 20 its right of way along River
side Drive from Seventy-second street
to Spuyten Duyvil was settled yester-
day in favor of the railroad. 1
BY unanimous decision the Court Of
Appeals. the last resort in the mat
ter, upheld the title Of the railroad to
the Riverside Drive property, which
is seven miles long and sixty feet
wide.
The basis of the original suit against
the railroad was an opinion by
the former Public Service Commits
sion that the railroad could not prove
title to the land over which it oper-
ated its trains north of Seventy
street and below the Harlem Ship
Canal. Accordingly, in December. 1918.
Corporation Counsel Burr began an
action for eiectment against the rail-
road.
City Charged Trespass.
This suit was one of several
brought in the last few years, all with
the purpose of retaining for the city
the right. of way along Riverside Drive.
City officials, however. contended that
this suit had better grounds for action

that its possession was lawful and

The decision yesterday sets the ques-

below the Drive as long as the railroad
chooses to keep them there.
