SWIFT'S WILL Medify Ear- to Rela- Probated Friday—Codici lier Provisions—Bequ tives. Friday in the probate court before Judge James A. Shea the will of Ma- ria M. Swift was admitted to probate. The Instrument names Frederick B. Judd of Southampton, Mass., as execu- tor. The will was made in 1906. Codi- cils have been added, the last one in 1910, that changed many of the orig- inal terms of the will. The value of the property is not known and will not be until it has been appraised. It gives Mary Jane Bowden of this city, a daughter of the deceased, $1,000, ‘| and to another dauchter, the late Em- 1ly M. F. Fenton, mother of Town Clerk Frank P. Fenton, $500; to Frank P. Fenton, a grandson, §100, and to Sarah J. Olds, a granddaughter, $100. To Ma- ry J. Bowden she gave a parce]l of real eslate with house on High street, as well as a bullding lot and all the rest and residue she gave to Mary J. Bow- den and Emily M. Fenton. A later cod- icil changed the will sumewhat, and in this she gave her grandson,’Reuben H. Bowden, $100, and also $100 to Fred- erick Fenton, another grandson. This codicil also changed the gift of the ‘building lot to Mary J. Bowden so that it will'be divided equally between the children of Anson J. Olds, and all her furniture and other things contained in her home are given to Sarah J. Olds for her use during her life, and :’hf,'n they are to go to Mrs, Olds’ chil- ren.

Larger Letter Boxes Required. Assistant Postmaster George H. Spencer replaced the three small col- lection boxes at the corner of Main and Bank streets, in front of J. F, Carr's store and at the corner of Church and Main streets, with three boxes ofa larger type Friday, as the former boxes were inadequate to hold the mai] deposited therein. These par- ticular boxes are probably used more than any others in the city. Letters would fall to the ground when the car- rier came around to make collections from these boxes. Entertained K. 0. K.

State Agents Examine Water Courses. Tuesday two men, said to be from the office of the state chemist at New Haven, were in this vicinity looking over a number of the water courses. They visited the Willimantic river and | the Hop river. On the former they let down a length of yarn, at the White bridge near the Columbia road,to which was attached a sinker. They did like- wise on the Hop river, at what is known as the Safford Pond bridge. They said that the yarn would absorb any contaminating substance that might be in the water, and from an analysis of the saturated yarn it could be determined just what contaminating substances might exist. They were conducting their examin- ations with a view to ascertaining whether the water of these two rivers would be suitable for drinking pur- poses. All inquiry locally fails to re- veal that anyone interested in Wilil- mantic's water supply for domestic use is in any way concerned in the work that these men from the state labora- tory are doing in this vicinity.

An_ Experience With Old and Young Birds—How the Presence of a Hawk Affects Them.—Their Habits, Etc. { | My most interesting experiences with the birds during the nastplummer was with the baby nuthatches. “Lady," | the female of the pair of tame nut- hatches, was not seen at the window | after April 24th until May 24th. “Nut- tie” continued to come during her ab- sence, and sometimes ate from my‘ hand, which he had not usually done! in summer. Soon after her return, Lady began to come to the window daily and conversed with Nuttie in low and, to me, unfamiliar notes. On the 20th of June I heard & simi- lar note when in the yard, and soon noticed a female baby nuthatch, two or three feet from the ground, on a pear tree. T stood within six feet and watched as it walked up and down and | examined the cracks and knotholes,! from which it occasionally picked a | tiny bite. Twice it caught an ant, but threw it away, evidently not liking| | anything so spicy. Once it found a lit- | tle worm, which it rapped against the | tree two or three times, as the adults | do when they wish to kill a caterpil- | lar. After it ate the worm it was so delighted that it ran around in an ex- cited, fussy way, and hunted for more. | When 1 stepped nearer it walked up | the tree and flew away. t 1 i The next day but ons I saw two on | the pear tree. A day later one came on the L roof, near the second story window, to which the adults came for | sick and disappeared January 27, 1909. | pipe, food. Nuttie was eating at the win- | dow and finally gave it one bite. Two days later I saw three. One of these clung to the window sash and anoth- er lighted on the food tray, fastened to the window sill. The next day I no- ticed a male baby picking up crumbs, but it did not succeed in getting many | Dbites far enough back in its mouth to swallow. Twice it tried to put food in a small hole in the perch, where the adults put hard things, which they wish to break up:; not succeeding it tried a cavity in the corner of the food tray, and finally put some in a crack between the shingles. Just cne week from the day that I saw the first one, A male baby ate 61 bites, at one time, from my hand, which I held on the window sill, and either that or the other one ate from my hand two other times the same day. It showed no fear and even step- ped on my fingers a little. A female soon learned to eat from my hand, but was not so fearless as the two males. We named them from a story in the St. Nicholas, “Tom, Dick, and Harriet.” A few days later, when four were to be seen, I exclaimed “Another!” As the new one was a female, the exclama- tion was soon shortened to “Ann” a rather inappropriate name for a fluffy baby bird. For some days we had sus- pected that there were four, but had never seen two females together, so were not sure, as they looked so much alike. In the male the crown and nape are shining black, in the female the black is veiled with bluish like the “bloom’ on a grape. In color the ba- bles were like the adults and were al- most as large, vet it was easy to tell them apart, as the young ones were so innocent and bahyish looking. When an adult nuthatch sees a hawk it immediately becomes motionless; in whatever position it happens to be. One day I noticed either Tom or Dick suddenly stop with a bit of food part- ly in its bill and remain perfectly still, as did the ycung cowbird, the foster baby of the song sparrow, who stood upright on the ridge of the L, until after a large hawk disappeared. Tom- | my would sit on the window sill and; watch with great interest while I raised the screen and held out food, then would come at once and eat.} He evidently had a choice in the kinds of food, for I noticed him drop a piece | of bread, which he had picked up and take & bit of nut from my hand. By the end of June, the bables had learned to eat so well, that the aduits seldom gave them anything. Although the little females at times still fluttered their wings, which was their way of begging for food, when the oid birds appeared. The adults, which were very fearless during the first part of the babies’ stay, now became less tame, while the little ones became more tame and trustful every day. | The window screen was covered with the d netting instead of wire and this w used by the babies as a play- ground. They would walk up and down and across like flies, at times carrying on an animated conversation with each other. One day Harriet flew unexpectedly from the blind on to my hand and stayed and ate, but usually they preferred walking. or/ | climbing to flying. One of the males | would cling to the netting with head downward, while I raised the screen | siipped my hand out, then would | | | dow sill, was afraid of a baby chippy which would fiy | came ateh to { the screen rom my hand held relow Dick both learned to S TE OF OHIQ, CITY OF TOLEDO, | male appeared. drink from a little dish of water kept. on_the window sill, but I never saw either of the females notice it. ey were very busy in their search for food, The tiniet gnat that lighted on’ the screen was seen and caught if po One day one tried unsuccess- fully several times to put a piece of 8. was the last. time I saw them as bablies. 1 suppose the parents toled them away and left them to fearn by experience all the things that a little wild bird needs to know. Nuttie continued to come to the window for food; but Lady was a very irregular visitor for three or four weeks. They came only a few times in a day and did not often eat from my band until about the middle of October when they began to come many times daily, and again became teme. Then came misfortune to Lady, who was miseing on November 5th. I think: she must have been caught by | a cat or hawk for she seemed weil the day before. disappeared one of the young females came back and in a few days a young The former stayed sixteen days, the latter a littie over a month. They only ate from my hand 4 very few times, but were much more fegriess when at the window than birds which have never been tamed. I do not know what happened to the little female, if he owned the earth, quarreled with the roale and I suppose drove him away. Twice since then I have seen one driving another away from a tree In the yard. During the severe cold in the mlddie of January the young male ceme to the window several times on two days for food. He did no' dare to stay to eat on the sill, but would snatch a piece and fly away. I have read that some birds consider certain regions as their own and re- seut the intrusion of other birds. Per- haps Nuttle does not understand the | absence of his mate, and blames the other. This one was his second mate since he first ventured to eat from my hand on March 1, 1907. His first one was Nuttie went away after four days and when he came back forty-one days later brought a new mate. I do not think this last one has ever been quite 80 fearless as the first Lady; but [ regret her loss very much. Bird life, iike human life, has many sorrows as well as joys, but it is well to make the best of things, so I hope Nuttie will socn find some lone bird for a rate and begin a new chapter in his life C. E H Preston City, Conn, Feb. 1, 1912, THE BLACKLISTING LAW. Fine Imposed in Hartford Case Goes to Supreme Court—Text of the War- rant Issued. ‘Charles H. Lay, secretary Manufacturers’ of the association of Hart- 312 Capitol avenue, was fined $50 in the police court by Judge Steele for violation of the ‘®Dlacklisting iaw’ passed at the session of the last gen- eral assembly, says the Hartford Times. Attorney Ralph O. Wells, who ap- peared for Mr. Lay, filed notice of a demurrer when the case was first called. The demurrer was overruled, and Judge Steele imposed the lowest fine allowed by the law. Notice of an appeal was filed immediately by Mr, Wells, who"asked that Mr. Lay be released on his own recognizance. Judge Steele found that such a pro- cedure would be impossible under the law and named a nominal cash bond of $50. “We admit the facts in the case, and we wish to make the case a test one, so that it may be carried through the superior to the supreme court so that it may be determined whether or not the ‘blacklist law’ is constitution- al,” sald Mr. Wells, The manufacturers of Hartford county object to making thelr records public, especially concerning the “placklist,” which is alleged » force, whereby an emplo; who discharged by one company for any reason, finds that he cannot secure employment with any other firm. The warrant for Mr. Lay's arrest was issued by Prosecuting Attorney Bdwin C. Dickenson, on a complaint received from Commissioner of Labor P. H. Connolley. It reads as follows: “Charles H. Lay, being the secre- is Manufacturers’ association of Hart- ford counly, an association conducted for the purpose, among others, of preserving and furnishing to its mem- bers information, des stion of their character, skill, acts, and affihations of persons whereby their standing in trade, reputation and ability to se- ~ure employment may be aifected and nut in a square of the netting.” July ) About a week after she | Old Nuttie, who acts as | ford county, with headquarters at No, | is | tary and agent and a member of the | 0arseness, rroup, influenza, Ghooping cough Sthmatic an {8 X o | Bood - | ynd | better. bottles Ferup the cough was all WS, 1bth 8L, rite for it <A. €.

A cigar dealer in one of the stands | at the Union depot in Kansas City can tell what kind of a cigar a man smokes just by looking at him. He becomes | quite proficfent in reading men’s faces %0 far as thelr purchases of tobacco | wares is concerned. “I'have been in the cigar business 26 years,” he said. “It has beem my eg- perience that a dark haired man, with i & dark complexion, wants a heavy | smoke, a ‘Havana’ cigar. A light hair- ed man with = fair skin prefers a i light smoke. The dark man enjoys a while the blonde likes the cigar- ette. The most trying demand the cigar man has to hazard is, ‘Give me & good cigar’ There are some excep tlons, of course, but it a dealer fol- lowed my rule of light and dark he will generally please the customer.” Music of the Hawk. There is not much to be sald for hawk musle, yet the voice of the for- est would lose the charm of its wild- est note were this great bird extinct, and it is because it is wild and dif- ferent from sounds of every day that we love it. Then, as a plcture seen from afar, the forest would never be complete without these birds of tire- less wing banging over it, and reign- ing upon their thrones of air. - - 8incerity Most Valuable Thing.
