A Famous Breeding Place for tho King of

Btorm King mountain ha* been no
famed a* a breeding place for eagles
that it in nometiine* called “ Kagle’s
Kent," nay* a correspondent of tho Ht.
Lonii HepuVilio.
Thecaglenof Storm King hnve, in n
great degree, lout their fear of man, if
they ever had any. During tho nlmd
fishing season they will approach w ith
in a few feet of the fishermen when
they are hauling their net*, and aro
invariable rewarded withnniee plump

w hich the grateful bird, after a few
flutter* of the wings, evidently its wav
of .V giving thanks, soars away 'into the
fast.uessea of the hills, to devour its .
quarry in solitude or to satisfy tho
hunger of ita voracious pair of eaglets „,ii
The lno snail shad fisherman nanermun aro are gnat friend* f.i,
of the eagles, and would not harm
one.
The best time to see tho eagles of
Htorm King Mountain is in tho early
morning. At tho first break of day
they are astir, ami can he Been on the
tongues of rock which jut out into t!v
river at many points on the high¬
lands, splashing and playing in tho
water. This can he seen every morn¬
ing, except when the ice covers tho
river, and then tho great birds seek.
Home air hole, wlirro they perform
their ablutions. The water is never
too cold for them to wash in. It. is n
strange trait of this bird that when at
liberty it is clean to a nicety, hut
when kept in captivity in a cage or
rack it becomes careless and filthy.
The first rays of the morning sun
are greeted by the birds with scnuiriH
and demonstrations of joy. Gathering
their powerful pinions underneath
them, they mount thousands of feet
into tho air, nerenming with delight
and heading straight into the rays of
the blaring sun.
There is ono old eagle, in tho Htorm
King flock which the fishermen have
named Harvey Hindi, after Ihe hero
of J. Feniniore Cooper’s talc, “The
Spy” It is claimed that this old
eaglo, a male, has been known in tho
highlands for nearly, if not quite, a
century. He is known from a peon
liar droop in one of his wings und his
hahit of flying sideways, and Iho fur¬
ther fact that ho is hoary with age.
The bird is supposed to hnvo been
shot hy woodchopperH many years ago
and escaped. Ho won named Harvey
Birch booauso of his having been seen
on the particular mountain near Gar-
risons, whom Knoc.h Croshv, alias
Revolution, Hsrvey Birch, tho patriot spy of tho
had the ouvo where he
used to meet und confer with Wash
ington.

Impurities In tho Atmosphere.
Professor H. If. AA oodhridge, of
Massachusetts Instituteof Technology,
says that although carbonic acid gas,
or carbon dioxide, is by no means the
only impurity in tho air we breathe, it
is the one which cun he easily measur¬
ed and furnishes a fair test of tho
others.
The best normal air contains three
and a half parts to every ten thousand
of car In in dioxide. The air in the streets
,,f an ordinary city contains four and a
| vn lf fl V e parts. The streets of l.oli-
,| ,,u are on occasions charged ns heuvi-
|y as twelve parts per 10,(100, and tho
air above an old graveyard is said to
he sometimes as high ns sixteen parts.
This is all outside air. AVithin a public
hall or a church tho nir will got much
worse.
Air. AVoodln idgo found in the Bos¬
ton Theatre ono evening nir in tho
galleries which contained 4!> parts enr-
lion dioxide per 10,000, with other im¬
purities in a ratio to correspond. The
method of making these measurements
ls exhaust the drv air from n drv
•
, bottle of known size, ana , , let it till up
\, ith the ordinary nir of tho room, of
’
OOUTHO continuing . tUO , cxlmustion , .. long ,
enough to secure a fair sample, and
then subject that sample to chemical
tests.
Another interesting fact is that it is
the combustion, particularly of coal,
w hich loads the air of our eitv streets
«i l h carbon dioxide, rather than the
breathing of living animals. Compared
with a huge chimney over a steam
boiler, a room full of people is very
harmless.

Suddenly, and almost in the very

'Then as order was restored, some of

standing on the platform which skirts
the edge of the ninth floor when the
derrick fell. The part of the scaffold
upon which they stood was swept
aw ay and the men were thrown into
space.
Headlong down the entire distance
fell the two negroes. Brown, by the
wildest freak of luck, grasped one of
the derrick ropes as he shot through
the air. As the boom of the hoisting
engine fell the ropes on the tackle
were set in motion, one going up and
the other down. It was Brown’s good
fortune to catch the rope being drawn
upward and lie was hauled safely to

The two negroes struck the ground
in tho basement. The scaffold from
which they fell was on the court side,
and a clear fall to the very bottom

The Chicago Post of Thursday says:
“Acording to a story which has
reached Chicago from Paris via A\ ash-
ington, the terrible holocaust , , which , . ,
wiped out over one hundred lives at
the French capital May 4th was the
work of anarchists thirsting for re-.
venge on the upper classes of France,
“It is claimed that while the official
inquiry into the circumstances sur-
rounding tho catastrophe threw little
light on the cause of the tiro, the secret
service department is working on a
clew that points to an anarchistic con-
spiracy of stupendous magnitude.
“it is said the Paris detectives have
not only satisfied themselves that an-
archists were at the bottom of the
awful crime, hut that the leaders fled
to America as soon as they had seen
with what frightful success it 'had
been executed.

The worst hailstorm known in the
history of Kansas struck Topeka short¬
ly after fi o’clock Thursday night.
Hailstones weighing twelve and pix-
i t een ounces stripped the trees of their
foliage, smashed window panes on ev-
ery band, including the finest plate
gi nS8 store fronts, cut down telegraph
| au q telephone wires, riddled awnings
aiu | inflicted unprecedented damage
i throughout the city,
]) ogs were struck in tho streets and
instantly killed. Horses were knocked
to their knees. Runaways occurred
throughout the city. AVhen the fury
of t ] 10 storm b, u i , iasset i fl ea( l birds
were found everywhere,
A heavy wind and terrible lightning
accompanied the storm,
Topeka looked like a city that had
withstood a siege of war guns. There
aro not a fl ozen buildings in the town
that are not almost windowless and
manv roofs are caved in.
T fl e ( ] amage wrought can better he
imagined when it is known that tho
hailstones ranged in size from that of
a hen’s egg to au ostrich’s egg and that
thirty u u.uutes after the storm one
hailstone was picked up which meas-
ured fourteen inches in circumference,
Surgeons were kept busy dressing
the wounds of persons injured in the
storm aud reports of injuries cantinuo
to he received.
The damage cannot he estimated,
but it will amount to thousands.
AVindow glass rose to a premium and
three carloads were at once ordered
from Kansas City.
A QUESTION OF BOUNDARY
May Result in the Finding of Gold In Oak
Point Island.
A special from Duluth, Minn., says:
Gold has been discovered on Oak
Point island in Rainy lake, and the
discovery will undoubtedly lead to an
international boundary dispute be¬
tween Great Britain and the United
States.
According to maps of the geological
survey, the island is in Canadian ter¬
ritory, but according to the wording
of the treaty of Ghent, the island is a
part of the state of Minnesota.
Canada has issued patents to several
valuable mining locations on the isl¬
and, and vigorous protests are being
sent to AVashington hy prospectors.
