From Our Now York Correspondent.
iLTHOTJGH John
Burroughs, Mr.
Jloosevclt and
tho other nature
experts are not
likely to find mo
an aggressive ri
val, I liave re
cently been do
ing a rather In
teresting stunt
In .bird study.
Unlike the Sage
of Slabsldcs nnd
some of tho na
t u r o students
who are still
smarting under
tho official des
ignation of fak
er, I do not
project my rev
elations from the heart of the ancient
wood. My center of activity has been
on Manhattan Island nnd my point of
observation tho top floor of a latter
day apartment house.
Sitting at my window half an hour
before tho close of one of these brief
est days of the year, I was amazed to
see flock after flock of birds In rapid
southern flight. There were so many
of them that at no time during the
half hour or so before darkness came
was even my limited skyscape free
from them. It reminded me of the
annual flight of the pigeons In the
great lake region half a century ago.
A YOtmO WOMAN ASSIGNED 1IE.
It was really the most decided urban
novelty I had witnessed for a long
time. Had this winged host's flight
been northward I should have predicted
an early spring, but under the circum
stances I could only look forward to a
mighty blizzard.
The next afternoon at precisely the
same hour the performance was re
peated. Evidently the beglra of the
previous day had been Incomplete.
The expected weather upheaval had
not arrived, but I was confirmed In
my belief that It was on the way. I
was so convinced
that the phenom
enon would ad'
mlt of no other
explanation that
I exhumed my
squirrel lined
greatcoat and In
due time went
operaward pro
vided against any
ther mometrlc
prank.
In the foyer,
before I had cx
changed my great'
coat for n check,
I came face to
face, as the real
ists have It, with
Jacobus Damm.
"I see you have
rcit to face, as THE changed your per-

ed, with his nose at an angle not whol
ly referable to his reputed Knicker
bocker blood.
That was bis ungenerous method of
hinting at moth balls. Thus put on the
defensive, I spoke of the warning
which I had taken from the flight of
tho birds. He received my account
with an air of impatient incredulity
that would have done credit to the
chief of zoological doubters In the
White House.
"Stuy, you are about the easiest
ever," he declared, with the most ple
beian abruptness. "The birds yon saw
were only a lot of those pesky little
alien sparrows going home from their
day's foraging In tho suburbs to the
shelter of tho evergreens In Central
park."
The opera that night was Debussy'
"Pollens et Mellsande." 1 do not deny
that It Is an acquired taste, but I have
learned to like it. It was Wagner's
.mission to convince us that wo knew
absolutely nothing of harmony, and it
seems to be Debussy's stunt to make
it clear that music is something quite
different from anything wo have ever
.suspected. He has gone to the trouble
i'to Invent a new scale, and tho score of
. "Pelleas et Mellsande" j8 constructed
aecordlng'to It. It Is probably a very
good scale. My sole objection to It Is
that It Is so strangely reminiscent of
the one already In use.
Be that as It may, there Is a good
deal In "Pelleas et Mellsande" that ap
peals to me. The general unhapplness
of the scheme Is so all pervading that
even the audionce comet In for a
share of It. and that ! a good deal
more than one gets from some operas.
Frankly it lo not easy to see why Mae-
r-
terimcK wrote the story of Peltecs and
Mellsande, and It is not quite appar
ent why Debussy set It to music of
his own patent but there is no mys
tery as to why Mary Garden likes to
sing1 In It and why Oscar Hammer
stein likes to have her. In It the Scot
tish-American diva looks her prettiest,
and Gotham flocks to determine bow
pretty that may be.
While I was thinking It all over I
happened to recall tho fact that I had
heard Jacobus Damm undervaluo the
opera and Its composer with ail the
nosltlvcncss which bis name suggests.
Yet he was present nnd outwardly
calm. My curiosity Impelled mo to ap
proach him between acts and ask why.
"For the samo reason that induces a
monk to wear a hair shirt," he declar
ed gruffly. "I want to bo uncomfort
able."
Although I put little faith in Jacobus
Datum's alleged motive, I must admit
that I for one have experienced a sim
ilar desire to be hurt. I don't know
tho psychology of the business, but I
know the feeling. Only recently I

XIV. confronted me. "M. le Marquis
de la Ghambost?" I asked Involun
tarily. "Naw," he responded In the
correct Idiom of the vicinity. "Git yer
teeth extracted at the Metropolitan
Painless Dentistry Parlors!"
Instantly I realized that my oppor
tunity to get Into trouble had arrived.
Without a second of parley with my
inner consciousness I turned nnd en
tered the premises, passing beneath a
monster gilt bicuspid suspended ovw
the entrance. The cheerful IndnMrj
thus Indicated occupied the il Un

"Hurt me," I returned laconically.
"Never!" ho protested, with charm

"Proceed, then, with your special

reminded me, with an appealing look
on his handsome face.

He laid one plump white hand ca

"That Is tho special treatment," he
said.
I was about to protest that it wos
no treatment at all when, with the
agility of an electric flash, he removed
the tooth from my person and held it
before my wondering eyes, with a
triumphant chuckle.

expostulated.
"I couldn't. At the last moment my

one of the most engaging smiles I

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Act Iv, 1-31 Mem
ory Verses 11, 12 Qolden Text, Acts
Iv, 31 Commentary Prepared by
Rev. D. M. Stearns.
Copyright, 1903, by American Tress Association.
As tho gospel Is preached nnd wher
ever It Is preached during the wholo
of this ago we can only expect tho ex
perience of Paul In chapter xxvltl, 24,
"Some believed nnd some believed
not." Some are wholly Indifferent and
care for none of these things, while
others violently oppose the truth. The
comfort of tho believer through It nil
Is that His word will alwnys nccotn
pllsh Ills pleasure and that Ho Is never
discouraged (Isa. Iv, 11; xlll, -4). The
resurrection of Jesus was accompanied
by the resurrection of many of the
saints (Matt, sxvll, 52, 53), nnd both
His nnd theirs were resurrections
from the dend. So also shall be the
resurrection of nil the righteous.
We now And Annas and Caiaphas nnd
their kindred, with tho rulers nnd eld
ers and scribes, gathered at Jerusa
lem to Inquire more fully concerning
the healing of the man who had been
lame from his birth, for all the city
was stirred because of the notable
miracle that had been wrought, which
no oue could deny (verso 10). Peter
and John being brought from prison,
this august nssembly nsked them, "By
whnt power or by what name have ye
done this?" This gives Peter another
opportunity, nnd ho who nt one time
asked tho Lord Jesus not to think of
suffering nnd on thnt dreadful night
three times denied that he knew Htm
boldly rehearses tho facts of the cruci
fixion of Jesus by these very men, as
serts His resurrection from the dead
and assures them that the healing of
this man was by that same Jesus. He
quotes Ps. cxvlli, 22, and has In mind
Isn. xxvlll, 16, which passages he also
quotes In his epistle (I Pet. II, 4-8). He
Is bold becauso filled with the Spirit,
and the Spirit brings these words to
his mind and utters them through him,
according to the promises of the Lord
Josus while Ho was yet with them In
nis humiliation (Matt, x, 19, 20; John
xiv, 20). It Is grand to hear Teter tell
these proud Pharisees that there Is no
other way for oven them to bo saved
but by Him whom they had crucified,
whom God raised from the dead. They
must have remembered the meek fear
lessness of Jesus when no stood be
fore them, for they see something In
theso men to remind them of Jesus
(verse 13). It should be our ambition
so to be Spirit filled that those who
know us would be compelled to sco
something of Him in us (II Cor. iv, 11).
While they could not deny the miracle
nor the strango power in these un
learned men, they determined to do
what was In their power, as they
thought, to prevent the spread of this
doctrine, and so after consulting
among themselves, the apostles having
been sent out, they recall them and
command them not to speak at all nor
teach In the name of Jesus (verso 18).
One cannot but think of the words In
the second psalm, "He that sltteth in
the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall
have them In derision." As they were
men professing to fear God, these
priests nnd rulers, Peter replied that
they must Judge for themselves wheth
er it was right to obey God or man,
but boldly, yet respectfully, ndded, "We
cannot but speak the things which we
have seen and heard" (verse 20).
What n contrast between theso men
and the majority of believers today,
who seem to have seen in Jesus noth
ing worth mentioning to any one, for
both in public and private they can so
rapidly keep quiet about Him. Con
sider Ellhu and Jeremiah, who were
much like Peter and John (Job xxxll,
1S-20; Jer. xx, 0).
With further threatenlngs they were
let go nnd at once went to their own
company, who hod doubtless been in
prayer for them. They reported nil
that had been said and done, and with
one accord these believers looked up
to God as the Creator and quoted the
words of the second psalm and, rest
ing In tho eternal counsel of God,
prayed, not for deliverance from fur
ther persecution, but only that they
might speak the word of God with
boldness and that God would accom
pany the word with signs and won
ders in the name of Jesus. They evl-
dently feared no man, nor even death,

believers to be filled with the word
of God and the Spirit of God nnd to
speak that word boldly. It can only
be done by seeing tho risen Christ nt
God's right hand on our behalf and by
so seeing Him that wo shall not sen
the face of man. If we are over afraid
of man, we nre evidently forgetting
Ood, and If wo live to please men we
ire not the servants of Christ (Isa. 11,
12, 13; Gal. 1, 10).
Thero Is a grand word for, tho serv
ant of Christ in I Thess. II, 4, "Allowed
of God to bo put In trust with the gos
pel, even so wo speak; not as pleasing
men, but God, who trleth our hearts."
There Is only one with whom wo have
to do, and to Him alone must every
one of us give account. Let our motto
bo, "The Lord alone shall be exalted"
and let us "Cease from man" (Isa. II,
tt, 17, 22).
LOOK AFTER YOUR FENCES.
Woven Wire For Inclosure the Latest
and Best.
The matter of farm fences is one of
tho principal Improvements of the
farm. A farm without good fences
never Is valued very highly, even
though the fields bo clean nnd fertile.
On a great many farms -V.e fence
proposition Is always a Ncrlotw one
With the owner. Too niuny farmers
are Indifferent regarding the keeping
of their fences In repair. There Is
usually plenty of work to be done on
tho farm fences. They nre continually
getting out of repair, and uulcss looked'
after thoy get Into bad order and en-
tico tho live stock lo cross them. The
matter of farm fences has already
gone through considerable evolution in
the last ten years. Very seldom docs
one ever see tho old rail fence, com
monly termed the "worm fence." The
rail fence Is fast becoming obsolete,
oven In the timber districts. They
never were n tiling of beauty, but
their construction lent a qualutness to
many homesteads. Another fcuce that
la passing rapidly Is the hedgerow. A
hedge fence when properly cared for
Is one of tho beautifying acquisitions
of n well kept farm. When It Is not
properly trimmed and cared for It Is
an eyesore. Hedge has grown unpop
ular on account of the large amount of
work required to keep It in proper con
dition mid also on account of its draw
tug the soil fertility from the ground
for a considerable distance where
planted.
Barbed wire Is also another thing
that Is meeting with disfavor with tho
most progressive farmers. It Is a very
cheap and durable fence, but if it is
not kept lu perfect condition it Is the
most dangerous thing about the farm,
especially where live stock Is kept.
On a great many farms barbed wire
fences have cost the owner many tlme3
more than what it cost to construct
them !u the damage done to live stock,
Many a valuable colt or horse has
been rendered practically worthless by
It. The damage done to cattle has not
been so great, but there are instances
where many valuable dairy cows have
had their udders practically ruined by
barbed wire.
The coming fence In fact, it is al
ready here Is the woven wire. It
has everything to commend It. It Is
sightly when properly put up and does
not permit of grassy or weedy fence
corners. Wire fences take up very lit
tle laud nnd permit n very high de
gree of farming. Crops will grow right
up by the side of it, and the keeping
of tho fence rows clean Is little labor.
Bad fences are often responsible for
bad feeling between neighbors. Woven
wire fences are the easiest of nil
fences to keep In repair. If thoy nre
put up right they are uenrly always In
good condition. A little attention paid
to them once in awhile Is all that Is
necessary Jo keep them In first class
order. The best way to mnlntnln a
woven wire fence is to have n barbed
wire stretched on top tho posts. This
prevents the stock, especially horses
from throwing their heads over the
fence or breaking down the wire.
Portable Fence For a Chicken Yard
A simple portable fence, a good
thing for the chicken yard, can bo
made by nailing laths on the edge of
1 by 3 stringers. Where it is possible
to obtain them, lengths of old gas
pipes may bo driven in the ground the
right distances about to pass through
the holes boxed in tho ends of the
