DANDE. BURKE IS IDENTIFIED. Carlson Recognizes Him as the Notor- ious *‘Frank Williams.” The proceedings in the Burke extradition case in Winnipeg yesterday were of great im- portance. Charles Carlson reached the city this morning. After some important testi- mony by Detective Broderick he was placed on the stand. He was clear in every point, and all his evidence against Burke is very strong. When the prisoner was led into court he looked pale and frightened, He nearly fainted when he caught sight of Carlson. When the lat- ter was paced in the witness box he testified that ne knew the prisoner and immediately pointed him out. He said that he knew Burke as Fravk Williams and first met him at his father’s house on March 20. He testified that the prisoner had rented the cottage in which Dr. Cronin was murdered and that he wrote the first receipt for the rent. Witness said he had kept a sharp lookout on the cottage be- cause he thought it was occupied by counter- feiters. On one occasion he applied for ad- mission to the place, but he was not allowed to enter. He went ct on April 20 and asked Williams to help him move some furniture from the cottage, which the latter did. Both then went to the Carlson house, where they sat for half an hour chatting together and drink- ing beer, Witness said that he never saw the prisoner after that until he saw him yesterday at Winnipeg. The witness testified that during the time the cottage was rented he had only seen a light in it on one night, although he lived with his father in the same yard. On May 18 old man Carlson received a letter from Hammond, Ind., signed “F. W.” After this letter was receiv the old man ordered his son to enter the cot- tage.

A new set of stories about the duke of Well- ington includes these: The duke being asked how it was that he had succeeded in beating Napoleon’s marshals one after the other said: “I will tell you. They planned their cam- paigns just as you might make a splendid set of harness. It looks very well and answers very well until it gets broken, and then you are done for, Now, I made my Spd re of ropes, If anything went wrong I tied a knot and went on.” When asked what was the best test of a great general, he replied: “To know when to retreat and to dare to doit.” The duke used to say that he attributed success in some measure to always being a quarter of an hour earlier than be was expected, and that the wise course is to attack your enemy at the moment when he is preparing to attack you. The duke detested belng helped. One daya gentleman nearly as old as himself made some demonstra- tion of assisting him to cross Piccadilly when crowded. When the duke reached the gate of boaey house he touched his hat and said: “I sir. "My lord, I have d a and not uneventful life, but never did rings to reach the day when I might be of the test assistance to the greatest man that ever ” The duke looked at him calmly and replied; “Don’t be a —— fool!” and walked into Apsiey house.

An application of F. A. Reed and others for an electric light on the river front was referred. The committees were announced and the board adjourned until next Monday night to elect police and minor officers. Tae Commrrrzes.—Much of the cor- poration work is done in committees, and the most im wnt committees are those on finance and on light. The former, as a matter of fact, fixes the taxes, and the latter is the corporation gascompany. For some months these two committees have had a special im- portance, in that council had conferred upon them jointly the power to contract for the in- troduction of the electric light into this city. The differences which have grown up on this subject has made the change in the personnel of the committee a matier of public imterest. The old committee on finance consisted of Council- men Snowden and Fisher and Aldermen Barke and Leadbeater. The new committee consists of Councilmen Snowden and Uhler and Alder- men Burke and Goodrich. The former com- mittee on “Et was made up of Councilmen Atcheson and Strider and Aldermen Marbury and McKenzie. The new committee is made up of Councilman W. 8. Moore and Dr. Jones and Aldermen McKenzie and Henkin. In the old joint committee on light all the light com- mittee and Mr. Fisher of the finance committee acted together in all matters relating to the electric light contract, making up a majority. Messrs. Snowden, Leadbeater and Burke also acted together, being the minority of the joint committee. The changes in these two com- mittees may have some effect upon the ques- tion of the introduction of electric light, as Messrs. Fisher and Strider, pronounced advo- cates of the present contract, have not been reappointed upon the committee. Corporation Cougt.—The corporation court is still holding its July term. Joseph Lawson has been convicted of attempting robbery on the street and sentenced to the penitentiary for twoyears, The grand jury has brought in in- dictments for unlawful gaming against Messrs, Donnelly, Smith and |, white, and Lawrence, Ashton, Banks, Green, Madella, Grady, Whit- ing, colored.

To the Editor of the World: | better condition than Sullivan, Sullivan was far too fat for my liking, but was certainiy very strong. Indeed, his stomach must have been in excellent shape or he could not have lasted as he did. There was one time in the fight I would not have bet $25 to $100 on Sulli- van. They were fighting about three-quarters of an hour when finally Sullivan was taken sick and vomited in the center of the ring. Kil- rain, through good nature or something else, waited until Sullivan got through vomiting. Ever after that Sullivan seemed to have re- newed vigor, There is no denying that Kilrain got some terrible punching over the heart, and it was these blows that did the business for him, and these only. Sullivan, in my opinion, won this fight through punching him over the heart. Now that the fight is over I honestly con- fess that I thought Kilrain would win; but I was not prejudiced. I thought Kilrain was a far better man. ‘Tis true he tried to pune! Sullivan, but his blows lacked steam. did not seem to have confidence.

Ido not remember such ® weather interdiction of curing and securiag the grass crop in any previous season of my life. The amount of clover that has been put into the barn or rick ‘in order” must be very small, while the greater part has been put away too green or too damp to come out good hay. I have seen a very considerable amount of clover that remained in the cock until so far advanced in decay as to be unfit to feed stock.

Donovan was anxious to let it be yped long before it was, I personally heard Mitchell say to Dono- van that Jake would die before he would give up. I think he called him (Donovan) some name with this remark. Sullivan's punching, or his hard hitting is what sticksto him. He a wonderfui clever stopper also for a big man. He rushed the fighting all the way thro: He could not land on Kilrain’s head effec! ly; consequently he put his mind on Kilrain’s heart and kept at it until he licked him. The 'tators could not see or understand what Kilrain suffered by being hit so often under the left arm. It is only a man who has been “there” who can appreciate it. Sullivan's shoes were torn up pretty well by being spiked. In regard to fouls both men were guilty— once each, Kilrain was thrown and Sullivan fell on his Legend face, neck and breast with his knees. I understand Kilrain hit Sulli- van far below the belt. At least I heard Sulli- van grumble about it when he went to the cor- ner. Sullivan did not do anything in hitting ex- cept left ana right hand swings. He hit first with his left and immediately afterward he hit with his right, both for the head. When he hit for the body with his right it went straight, and that won the battle for him. In regard to wrestling Sullivan would mostly acton the defensive, but showed some good points in that line. In general I would judge them tobe equal in wrestling. Kilrain went down several times without a blow. When he would stop a blow with his arm sometimes he would go down. I think the referee was honest and just, and acted well fora man who is not in that line. In my — some level-headed fighter should have held that ition, some one who knows the rules and regulations through experience. I always contended that any man Sullivan could hit he could beat. He made a failure to-day tr: to hit Kilrain on the head, but was successful on the body. Billy Muldoon deserves much credit for — ing Sullivan around as he did. Of course 8: the pleasure of seeing Sullivan and fight in France—in fact, I to make the ring for them—and to-day’s fight was far rior and more interesting than that.

Nicholas Pike of Brooklyn, and of all the B: Proved the most undesirable. The bird was imported with a view to ite ac- climatization, on the theory that it was in- sectivorous, and would assist in ridding us of insect pests not destroved by native birds. Daring the fifteen years from 1855 to 1870 there ‘was a mania for these sparrows, which extended from one end of the Union to another, and passed over into Caneda More of them were obtained from Europe, and a# they increased here they were that the of the birds went up to such a height that at one time it was cheaper to import them directly. Everywhere they were with it care, even to the enact- ment of town ordinantes, and it was proclaimed a8 a sin to offer any barm to the precious birds. for | The result was that by 1886 the English apar- row, so called here, ch it is native to near!; the whole of Europe, firmly establi — Achy aro of our states and five of our occupying x miles. It is a remarkably hardy and peolise bird, and it has taken kindly to its new bome, and growing more aggressive than ever, because an abundance of its favorite food. The rapidity of the increase and the spread of the sparrow in this country has been wonderful. There is nothing like it in the his- tory of any bird. Unknown here so recently, it has already become one of the most familiar of birds, and the more it is known the less is it admired; in fact, the more it is detested. The house ww first invades the larger towns, then the smaller, and finally over populous farming districts. It is more at- tached to human dwellings than any other wild bird, and if it op food and accommodation enough in crowded places it remains there by preference. In this country the enthusiasts who stimulated its propagation on a false theory of its habits assisted it in gratifying this natural taste. They introduced the w into towns all over the Union, and coddled it as if it were man’s best and most useful friend. Yet, as was foreseen by all ornithologists, mul- tiplying enormously under euch favoring cir- cumstances it has rapidly made of itself an in- tolerable nuisance, against which severe meas- ures must be taken. Its fecundity is amazing, asingle pair often rearing from twenty to thirty young in the course of the year, and s8 the sparrow enjoys the protection afforded by the proximity of man, it is saved from enemies which check the increase of other birds. If we assume the annual product of a pair to be twenty- four young, half male and half female, and that all alive, in ten years the total progeny would be 275,716,983,698. Of course the actual in- crease is only a small fraction of that total, but it is enormous. In its centuries of experience asa parasite upon man, the sparrow has de- veloped extraordinary intelligence in avoiding the attacks of other animals, Cate are far more successful in catching the wariest of our native birds than in catching the sparrow. Ver¥ few of our native birds kill itor eat its eggs and young, the most useful in that respect ing the northern shrike, which visits most of our northern cities during the winter and feeds freely on the sparrow, But the sparrow en- thusiasts went so far asto wage war on the shrike because of this disposition. The blue jay tackles the sparrow in some of the towns of the Mississippi valley, but in this region it is oye seen In summer and therefore does little damage. The sparrow hawk and the screech owl pursue it successfully; beside, they eat large numbers of insects and rarely attac native birds, On its side the rrow is an en- terprising and remorseless enemy of very many other birds, and because of this dis ition and its fighting qualities it accomplishes some of its worst nage. The sparrow is a grain-eater by preference, the notion as to its being an insectivorous bird having had its origin in the most astonishing ignorance on the part of the origina! importers, ‘There is no doubt that it is injurious to grain, to seeds of various kinds, that it causes a de- crease in the number of native birds in garden and on farms, and also im cities and towns, and that it isa pest on many accounts; but if the sparrows consumed great quantities of injuri- ous insects they would serve some compensat- livan was far too fat, but he was strong. — that niche ee purpose. Unfortunately, it is not an itual insect-eater, It does not prefer insect food, and there is no species of insect which is not much oftener devoured by native birds that the sparrow drives off. The good and bad characteristics of the epar- row had been discussed in Europe for centuries before the bird was brought hither by the enthusiasts, and yet they paid no heed to the warnings of European experience. Mr, Jabex Webster, who made inquirics in England about the bird, reports that intelligent farmers and horticulturists were everywhere astonished that we should have introduced ‘so destructive and worthless a bird” into this country. Since the sparrow has become better known the same sur- prise begins to be expressed here, and now in many regions of the country the question of the methods of getting rid of it is under sideration. In some cases lawe few ye] rrows have been repealed, and the state of higan offers bounties for their destruction. A general and immediate repeal of all laws favoring the birds is recommended, and the enactment of laws legalizing the killing of them at every season of the year and the destruction of their nests, eggs and young, and making it & misdemeanor to give them food or shelter intentionally or to introduce them into new regions. Laws should also be to pro- tect the shrike or butcher bird, the sparrow hawk and the screech owl, as natural enemies of the sparrow. The case against the sparrow is summed up by speaking of it as.acurse of such virulence that it ought to be systematically attacked and destroy Yet we invited the evil, or rather the ignorance of would-be benefactors imposed it onus, Itis only another example of mis taken philanthropy. ———+o+_____ Prince Albert Victor’s Allowance.
