' . ' BIRD HAVEN ON THIS FARM Illinois Agriculturist Who Keeps Close Guard and Provides Shelter for Birds. s . ! John H. Dorris, who owns a large farm northwest pt this city, will net allow -a bird of any-kind to be killed ou his land, writes a Harrisburg (111.; cci respondent of the St. Louis Globe Democrat. He has set p.side a nun. ber of acres to grow up in under brush, in which all kinds of birds, es pecially' quail, find a home through tho -winter; and in the summer 'the place, is alive with birds. Mr. Dorris claims that hawks- do very little damage' in comparison with the good they do in killing field mice and . rats. There are hundreds - of quail on his farm, and they have be come so tame that they come .to tne dooryard for feed. So careful does he. watch' these" birds'i that he' can teiT where nearly every bird nests in the brooding season. Last fall one of his hired hands, while driving through the lane with a load of hay, saw a quail Fitting on the fence close by, and. taking ,nis wnip, ne Knocked it on. slightly crippling it. He picked the bird up and took it ' to the house to feed to the cat. When Mr. Dorris saw this he re buked him warmly, questioned him as to where he found the bird; and upon being told remembered where it had a nest Unhitching one of the horses and saddling him, he rode a 'mile and . , . .. . nan, piacea me Dira on its nest F.nd watched and cared for her until she hatched out her brood. Mr. Dor ris' farm is noticeably free from' in sects that do damage to crops, and he unhesitatingly says this is due to the birds on the placer. " ; RABBIT'S STRANGE REFUGE Bunny Xads Pursuing Ziynz Into Honteqte Tent and Slakes . His Escape. That the Instinct of self preserva tion isnot confined to the human race la evident from many instances in the experience of hunters in . the north woods. A trapper in the Tahquamenon -river country, relates the fact that while seated in his tent one evening at dusk there was a sudden commotion at the entrance and in popped a rabbit.. Be hind the rabbit in hot pursuit, came another animal, which fairly shot dowa the -snow incline into the tent This animal proved to be a lynx. - For a moment it did not dawn upon the lynx that it had been caught in a snare, and then it jumped to the op posite side of the tent and began to claw the canvas and snarl. By this time the trapper had grabbed a club and was on his feet The fight that followed was llveiy and how he man aged to dodge the lynx and alsp hit it in the semi-darkness is,' he says, a mystery, but it was not long before the lynx was stretched out lifeless. The hunter came out of the encounter with a few scratches, and .in the meantime the rabbit escaped. Elephants Generate Electricity. Employing elephants to generate electricity is a novel idea which is re ceiving attention in Indian circles, and the utilization of elephants for work ing dynamos is likely to become an accomplished fact It is proposed la Bombay to employ the elephants sii hours a day generating electricity which will be stored in batteries and used at - night for lighting purposes.

P., said that within the last two months very many ref ugees from Russia had been sent back- to England and that he. had evidence that every one of these men was shot i at the Russian frontier without trial, Many stories have been told of "south ern chivalry, but the palm apears to go to a story told by a former governor of Kentucky while visiting Philadelphia recently. Accordine to the narrator, a crenume Kentucky colonel boarded a treot car which was very crowded, and somehow he stepped on the foot of a very prrtty woman. Of course, the woman expected the colonel to apologize, just as did everybody else who heard her give a mouselike squeal when the colonel's foot came down. And she looked as though she exuected an apology, but the colonel, divining her . i i. i ir . i l t . r i . f-v - luuugm, uuiieu ins hue. ana saiu: .no, niadam, I'm not going to apologize.
