Millbury, Mass., Oct. 9.—An alleged scheme for the assassination of Presi- dent Taft was unfolded to Miss Delia . Merrey, aunt of the president, by a stranger who called at her home here Saturday. The man, who refused to &ive his name, declared he had over- heard the plotters while in Boston. As he rted he threatemed to return and Miss Torrey if the matter got into the newspapers. Secret Service Men Notified. The man weqt away from Millbusy as suddenly and as mystsriously as he had come, and tonight there is no clue to his whereabouts, although Miss Torrey imtmediately reported the facts 10 the MAN®ury autherities, and they in turn asked the assistance of the Wgorcaster police. The matter has also been reported to the secref service au- thorffles, and they, too, are expected to take & hand in the investigation. Stranger Was Queer Looking. Tt was learned that the man came here from Worcester by the eleetric THREAT AGAINST TAFT'S LIEE Mysterious Stranger Tells “Aunt -Delia” : He Overheard Plot in Boston. Lorrey That In telling of the man’s visit, Miss Torrey said: : “H& told me he had been in Boston and had heard some men say they were going to kill the president, and he thought I ought to know about it. He did not tell me his name, and alto- gether hé was a queer looking man. He said he did not want apything to get into the papers, and if it did he would come back and kill me. As soon as he hakd gone I got word to the se- lectmen, for he was such a queer act- ing man that I did not know what might happen.” Police Lose Trail.

(Brate Ornithologist’'s Létter for Oct.y The devastations of increasing in- sect pests have already aroused the concern and action even of govern- ments In many civilized countries. Ger many has a government commission to ocerry out far reaching practical plans for the increase of useful birds, and in Emgiand., France, Austria-Hungary, | Sweden, Russia, Holland, Finland Japan and other countries there is nota- ble and increasing activity along these limes. Last June in Berlin there was held an international bird rongress, &t which the was offiefally represented, and the movemont has received great impetus. stical experimenting has proved that it is pessible, by certain methods, to greatly merease the nurdbers of wild hirds. The pioneer discoverer of these approved“nodern methods is Baron von Berlepsch of Germany. After nearly a e time of research, visiting many countries, he has brought these meth- ods to a ence, and has. given the recults to the world. The German gov- ernment has officially undertaken to cafry out these methods, and other countries are following its example. These methods are the acknowledged basis for the conservation of E bird life in all the world What Baron von Berlepsch ®drieflv as follows: He made ronfal estate a great exper thon. By teeding®the bi nesting site, S min that pre plished the f garden of 12 ac his castle he indu useful birds-to n tracts of 400 a nesting boxes, of which 90 per cent. are habitually tenanted. The same propor- tion holds true of ten thousand others put up eisewiere by the government. By judiclous planting and pruning of shrebbery he induces hundreds more, of still other species, to meet on his premises. The resuit has been - that his entire area of about one square mile, as well 48 contiguous estates, have been abso- lutely free from insect pests, and the proportionate yields of cro hae beer: enormous,even wi ing or polsoning. Ofther in the vieinity, seeing how his erops were than theirs, ed his methods, with lik 1t expegimenting he has devy #tyle of neSting box, made by hollowing wections of limbs of trees, which birds will slmest inveriably occupy, even where they had previously rejected all others prepared for them. Machinery has been devised to make these cheap- }y, and they are manufactured and used In Germany by tens of tjousands, bath of private land owners and by the government. They will shortly be manufactured in this country and plac- el on the market. It seems foolish, and even almnost wicked, for us In America to submit to the huge loss of nearly a billion doltars a r from the attacks of insects,when by well directed culture of useful birds on a large scale, at gomparatively tri- fiing expense, backed vy reasonable and properly enforced legisiation, we could, in time, obviate a great deal of t spray owners h better have adopt- ANOTHER R ByLydiaE.Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Black Duck, Minn.— “About a year ago I wrote yon that I was sick and z A could not do any of Y my housework.

Special Branches in Waterbury Taught at Low Cost. : Interesting statistics have been com- piled by Supt. of Schools Berlin W. Tinker regarding the cost of supplying the sewing, cooking and manual train- ing schools during the year, savs the Waterbury Republican. Thek cost is found to be remarkably small, consid- ering the value of the education im- parted to the pupils in the -various schools. Tast year was the first de- voted to the teaching of these subjects and this year it has been extended to the pupils of a number of other schools. Second yvear work is now being taken up and new classes started in first year work. Mr. Tinker said the other day that second year work in sewing was being iken up by the pupils in all of the xth grades, and that the fifth grades were starting on the first year work. The cost of the supplies for sewing during the vear was remarkably mod- erate. The average s not quite four | pil per lesson and one and cents per pupil per month. per pupil for the entire vear ents for the 40 lessons. ond year work in the cooking also s yvear in the sixth grade, wenth grade taking up the first work in t various schools.
