TAKEU T0EUGLAI1D Lord Northcliffe, Admiring the Birds Here, Tries Breeding Them. REAL TEST YET TO COME QUESTION OP MIGRATION WHEN THE SNOW COMES IS STILL TO BE ANSWERED ARE WATCHING THE NESTS. London, Sept 27.-Lord Northcllffe, during one of his visits to the United States fell in love with the American robin, which ' is - very different from the English -bird of the same name, and determined to try and introduce the American robin into England. The story of the experiment, which is very Interesting to naturalists, is thus told by "a bird-lover" in the columns of The Dally Mail: . "When 1 went in June to see the robins, the 'first crisis of the experiment was occurring. There are two crises-Hhe birds must be Induced to breed and the young must be reared. That is the first crisis! The - second has yet to come the crisis of migration. If in the late summer or autumn the birds, old and young, now at home In the gardens and park, all disappear, the experiment tso far as - the first year goes fails; for I can- hardly think that in such a case there would be a chance of their returning in the spring of 1910. On the other hand, the bird keepers and watchers have come with success through the earlier crisis. Last spring seventeen American robins nine cocks and eight hens brought from the United States were put in a large ; tut-of-door aviary. When I went to Guildford early in June. I . found that a good many eggs had been laid In several, thrush and blackbird nests fixed in the aviary and furnished up with dry grass and clay by the breeding birds. But several of the hens laid in the same nest, there was rivalry and fighting, and some of the eggs got broken. : Accordingly, the bird keeper took the eggs from the aviary as they were . laid, and set them In clutches of three to five in song thrushes' and blackbirds' nests' in the gardens. Most of the eggs were put under thrushes, but two lots were put in blackbirds' nests. As a result twenty-four young were known to have hatched out before the middle of July, when I next went to see the birds. ;. v;v ' ::v::': ';r '. "A few of the young American robins were transferred from thrushes' nests to boxes wired on one side, , and the old birds fed them. But two young were found' dead one morning, and the keeper believed they had been 'poisoned' by their, foster parents through jealously or waning affection. So the other young' then being reared were allowed to go free. The old thrushes were to be constantly seen, feeding the Young American, robins on the lawns after this. They- appeared to feed them chiefly on some. small insect found In the short grass, but I have not been able to identify the species. The chief bird keeper thinks it is a" red ant, , ; "Now comes the most interesting ptrt of the experiment so far. Save for two or three pairs, the adult American robins were all ' released from the aviary on the day on which . the young were' : found ' dead roughly, I think, about the middle of June. They paired and set about nest-building almost at once. - "A nest was found in the branch of a cedar of Lebanon on the terrace; and , in another cedar . I found a nest myself in July, but I think it had been deserted. There were three young in this first neBt all but ready to . fly when I saw It, on July 17 and July 18. I could see the fluff oh their heads as they peered over the side of the nest, which was made, externally, of dried grass from a meadow just beyond the terrace. I believe that three other nests were known of, one in the wild garden by the River Wey, another in a little copse or spinney in the park. The cocks sang finely In June and July, I was told; I have not; yet heard the song only heard the call of the old birds as they fed their chicks and the call of the fledged and flown chicks. ;: "So far the experiment has been remarkably successful. The great question of course, is, will any of the birds, old or young, stay on at Guildford, or will they one and all disappear completely from England? I understand that, though this thrush Is a bird of very strong migratory habit, a few do stay throughout the year In North America. If so, is there a chance of some of these birds they must number upward of fifty staying through the autumn and winter In England? The experiment is not onlv an interesting one in acclimatisation. --- but in migration as well. If these birds, or any of them, stay, in England through the autumn and winter, they will stay at Guildford, I nave small doubts They have been fed there, and the whole place seems well suited to them. So thai, should they stay in England, we shall easily be aU to establish the fact; for, it it is easy to see the birds now In the full of the leaf, it will be much easier to see them later when the leaf to off." .- Remembered Whole Books.

NUDE BABY SHOCKS Priest Horrified Over Work of Art and Clothes Are Produced. A SOAP ADVERTISEMENT London, Sept. 27. A pope in Rome once trousered Michael Angelo's nudities. A parish priest in Ireland has now trousered the nude baby boy in a well known soap firm's advertising posters. ' . The poster represents a chubby lit tle baby boy throwing over his shoul der a smiling look of triumph and satisfaction as, with a cake of soap in hand, he stands up against a chair up on 'which a washing bowl is placed. ? The youngster thus appeared until a few days ago as a poster upon the walls of Drogheda. Navan, , and neighboring towns in County Meath, Ireland. It appears there still, but with breeches from the waist to below the knees, rudely painted upon the dimpled limbs. The minutes of a recent meeting of the Association of Drogheda Bill Posters tell the story of how the city was saved from the vicious influences of infantile nudity. An urgent meeting of the posters was held one day because the Rev. Father John Currie had called upon the clerk of the association In reference to the poster, stating that he and the bishop considered it inde cent and ordered the immediate covering up of its nudity. - In Drogheda the authority of the par ish priest, backed by the bishop, is something that even the strongest organization of billstickers has to consider. So it was decided that the billstickers, being family men, inured to the sight of babies, should go to inspect the posters and endeavor to comprehend their demoralizing influence. On their return a further debate took FOUMEARS Removed by Lydia E Pinkhcm'sVegetableConpoand South Bend. Ind. " Lydia E.

Breaking All Records Although Fstima Cigarettes have never before been advertised, their sales have grown within five years from almost nothing to over one hundred milium a year. AND WHY? Because they are the greatest value ever offered in cigarettes. Their Mend is full, rich snd satisfying produced by the onion of carefully selected and seasoned tobaccos.

THE AMERICAN TOBACCO COMPANY place, and it was decided that nothing could be done, to the posters, but that communications should be held with Dublin, Belfast, London and other towns in Ireland and Bngland to ascertain whether elsewhere the posters had shocked morality. The replies received from Dublin, Belfast; London and Cardiff were to the effect that the morals of those cities had not suffered from the display of the posters. At a subsequent meeting it was reported that the Rev. Father Currie was implacable. He Insisted on the posters being either withdrawn or rendered unobjectionable, and he gave the association twenty-four hours in which to do this, otherwise he threatened to pour paraffin over the billboards and burn them down. Upon this ultimatum it was decided to breech the infant. - , ; At 3 o'clock the following morning, with paint, pot and brush, the evil influence was exorcised and the people of Drogheda are now able to gaze upon the figure of an infant Marathon competitor in athletic costume. OH, YOU TIRESIDE! Richmond Colonists in Michigan Return to the Coal Man's Embrace. TRAVEL WAS VERY HEAVY Travel is exceedingly heavy on the Pennsylvania lines at present, due to the colonist fares for settlers to points on the Pacific coast and Puget Sound. The excursions to Northern Michigan resorts are over now and with the advent -of cooler weather the hay fever patients 'are ' coming home in large numbers and hugging the grate fires. It was stated by Ticket Agent George Houser, at the Pennsylvania depot this morning, that travel had been very much heavier to Michigan and Eastern resorts by local people this year than in former years. Whether this Is due to an increase in the number of hay fever and asthma sufferers or the fact that people have more money to spend can not be determined by Mr. Houser. It has been necessary for the company to put on several extra trains during the summer to accommodate the crowds. . Th i.arnd Caoby.
