day were agreed that in winning the
international class A 1872 balk line

ment with but one defeat. This was
at the hands Of Edouard Roudil Of
France, who beat him 300 to l2o.
The tournament ended in triple tie
for second place, Percy M Collins, Chs
cago; Francis Appleby, New York, and
Roudil, each having won three games

WAR RELICS REMOVED.
Transport Taxicab Are Being Replaced
in Paris Streets.

Paris, Feb. 22.--The veterans Of the
Marine, those ramshackle. broken-dowr
taxicabs which every American visitor
TO Paris has had to dodge on the Paris
Boulevards, have been permanently re.
tired and replaced by 5000 modern
comfortable taxicabs.,
The forbidding appearance of the
old cruisers" seemed to have an i'll eff.
feet on the drivers and hope is ex-
pressd by many Parisians that the
new machines would also mark the
passing Of the disreputable chauffers
who are considered as ill-mannered as
their machines are old.
The taxicabs were placed in service
in 1905. In 1914, they were modified
by General Galieni. then military
governor Of Paris. who crowded his
army into them and rushed them TO
the battle Of the Marine where they
aided in the success of the famous
fianking movement that saved Paris
and defeated the Germans.
These hardy pioneers Of the streets
have been dashing about Paris for II
years.

THE CHIMNEY SWIFT
Usually Called the Swallow--U seful As
an Insect Eater

Pokagon, hereditary chief Of the
pottwattomies, who died 20 years age
in his hut which stood among the fire.
blasted remains OF what was once a
great Michigan pine forest, wrote a
book III which he told something about
| the birds Of the Great Lakes district,
In ii he had something to say about
! the time .'whan the chimney swifts
dwelt in hollow trees and went in and
out like black clouds with roar of
wings like the mntter Of thunder.
To-day in the sections OF the coun-
try where houses are few the chin
ney swift occasionally still builds its
nest in a hollow tree. When the
white man came first to America and
started building houses, the swifts
doubtless believed thtat the chimneys
which the intruders constructed were
for their particular use The birds
forsook the hollow trees and adopted
the ehimneys as their own.
The chimney swift usually is called
the chimney swallow, but it is not
swallow. 1t belongs TO another family,
dtA1 ilE iIldllIHS dlh Will
the huinming bird rather than with the
swallow This familiar bird of ours
never perches except within chimney
or hollow tree. Ii takes it's food
while on the wing and it is an expert
snapper-up of unconsidered insect
trifies.
The swift even gathers its nesting
material while on the wing. Hesitating
only an instant in its rapid fight, it
breaks off the tips Of dead twigs and
carries them to its chosen nesting
place, there fastening them together
with the glutinous secretion of the
saliyary glands which nature has sup
piled to this family Of birds.
The chimney swift Is a useful bird,
as are all OF the insect eaters. Its
habit of nesting in chimneys rather
than in hollow trees as its ancestors
did, shows the adaptability Of birds to
take advantage Of any thing which |
seems to suggest a change for the bet
ter in the conditions of feathered folk |
