DEATH IX CHASJXG BIRD One Boy Dead and Brother Dying From Fall of Timber 1 W ilkes-Barre, Pa.. March 30.—1n | quest of a sparrow which they had wounded with an air rifle. Joseph Pet liewicb, 14, and Edward Petliewich, ,12. brothers, edged their way through I a pile of heavy mine props and caused I a rush of the timber which caused the ; instant death of Joseph and so serious ly injured Edward that his recovery is not expected. The accident occurred in the prop yard of the Stanton colliery of the Le , high and Wilkes-Barre Company. The voungsters had been shooting birds and finally winged a sparrow. The bird sought refuge in the props and the brothers were determined to claim their prey. Joseph led the way. and as they moved through the spaces between the . timbers, the heavy props suddenlv. rushed and Joseph was instantiv squeezed to death. His brother has several bones broken besides internal : injuries. TWO QUEER CANDIDATES Armless and Legless Bivals in Race for Office Saginaw. Mich.. March 30.—Ar thur Clements.

ALL BUT 97 PROPERTIES IN PARKJREA BOUGHT CnttiM< FNB First Fi|% the selection of Mr. Knisely ns presi dent and Mr. Todd a* sec retarv, and secured the service* of ti-eorge K. Kt* ter as real estate expert. The commission wasted no time in beginning business and on February 16. 1913, within two weeks after startiug work, it had purchased two properties, those of ,1. K. Hutchison, 617 North street, and Anna V. Weav er, 2-S (Pilbert street. Since then the work of takin;; over the pro|»erties ami selling them has gone steadily on until the 440 have been taken over, the majority of which have been torn down, making a <big hole in the Eighth ward. On Pdbruary IS, 1913, Spencer C. (ri)bert was appointed a member of the commission to take the place of Arch. G. Knisely, whose untimely death was mttch regretted because of his fine knowledge of real estate in Harrishurg, and hie r.eal in the work of securiug the properties. Mr. Gilbert was elected president of the commis sion. The ares of the Capitol Park exten sion is 27 acres, which includes the cross streets vacated by the city, a conclusion cheerfully made bv the city to add to the symmetry of the park. There will be sufficient streets traverse the park to accommodate traffic, so that the city has lost nothing by its concession. The area of the present Capitol Park is about 14 acres, so that the proposed extension is almost twice that of the present park. Among the big purchases recently i made by the commission was the j Bagle works of the Hickok Manufac- I turing Company, covering a vast area ] at the lower side of the plot aloug ! the railroad. There still remain several other large properties to take over. ! The amount asked of the present Leg islature to complete the work is $300,- 000, or fifteen per cent, more than the original appropriation. Since every member of the Legislature is in terested in seeing the work completed it is expected that the sum asked for 1 will be given. It is interesting to note that of the I many purchases of property made none were acquired toy condemnation pro ceedings and every property owner, while demanding more for his property than the commission was willing to give, has expressed satisfaction over the sale. In fact the commission is j composed of hard-headed business men, who have full information as to i the values of the properties purchased ' and in no instance did they deviate trom the value they decided to paw The State has put some of the I buildings to good use, converting them ! into office buildings when the offices j at the Capitol were crowded, and at ' present there are housed on the ex- j tension in good buildings, the State I Live Sto.k and Sanitary Board, sev eral divisions of the Public Service Commission, inclining the engineering division, a storage building tor the State arsenal, the Department of the Distribution of Public Documents and the State Garage. Jupiter Warner Thau the Earth "The gigantic mass of Jupiter has a much larger warmth than that of the earth," says a scientific writer. "It is the result of the molecular movement produced by the compression of the strata and must be greater the more powerful the masses and hence the larger the pressure of the strata is. Jupiter surpasses tiie earth in point of mass 301 times, and for this reason (■he inner temperature or individual warmth of the planet is probably high enough to evaporate the water upon the surface quieklv, so that water vapor forms the principal substance of the atmosphere of Jupiter. Water vapor is an excellent reflector and readilv ac counts for the bright radiation of'light emitted by the planet.'' How to Know Hemlock The ocacsional reports in the papers! of children or animals being poisoned by eating some umbelliferous plant em- ' phasizes the importance of being able ! to distinguish the dangerous ones. In i the case of hemlock itself, flic most poi- ; sonous of all this is not difficult. No tice first the dark green, much cut ' and divided leaves and the peculiar I odor which botanists call fetid. But j perhaps the most obvious thing and that which most easily distinguishes j the hemlock from all other umbellifer- I oils plants is the sfom. This is smooth, polished, slightly furrowed and of a ' green color, blotched and spotted with purple. No other member of the order has a stem in the last like it.—London Globe.

THE CHARGE AT WATERLOO BY SIR WALTER SCOTT Of the many grand things in prose and verse written of the great field of Waterloo, none is sublimer than the following from Scott. On came tlie whirlwind —like the last But fiercest sweep of tempest blast; On came the whirlwind —steel-gleams broke Like li|;htn injf through the rolling smoke; The war was waked anew. Three hundred cannon-mouths roared loud, And from their throats, with flash and cloud. Their showers of iron threw. Beneath their fire, in full career, Hushed on the ponderous cuirassier. The lancer couched his ruthless spear. And hurrying as to hover near, The cohort's eagles flew. In one dark torrent, broad and strong. The advancing onset rolled along, Forth harbingered by fierce acclaim. That from the shroud of smoke - and flame. Pealed mildly the imperial name. But on the British heart were lost The terrors of the charging host; For not an eye the storm that viewed Changed its proud glance of fortitude; : Nor was one forward footstep stayed, I As dropped the dying and the dead.

Fast they reuewed each serried square! j And on the wounded and the slain Closed their diminished files again; j nmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Eastir "Fixins" For Men CASTER —the day every *—• man wants to look his best.
