One of the improvements soon to be accomplished at Mohegan park by Su- perintendent John Duff is the enlarge- ment of the yard for the herd of deer which have long had quarters that were too restricted for their realwelfare.They have had a space of about two acres, but the new tract that is to be fenced in will be from 10 to 15 acres, the su- perintendent thinks, although he has not measured it. In the old yard the deer had every vestige of grass or any- thing green that they could reach nib- bled off clean but in the new yard they will have much greater territory to graze over, and the space to be enclos- {ed will also take in some of the brook S0 that the superintendent will be re- | lieved of the necessity of carrying all their water to them as he has to do with the present accommodations. At the present time Supt. Duff is putting to use the new road scraper which was bought for the park. He is using it on the No. 1 road to the dam, Washington road, and the follow its use will be manifest to all who use the roads. All the water fowl which were pre- viiously confined in the small enclosure are now at large on the big lake and enjoying their freedem, while they furnish an entertaining feature for vis- itors to the park, wno watch _the antics on the big _sheet of water. There are in all about forty ducks, six street | improvement that will | old geese and five goslings!

The flock of young (Guineas have suf- fered from the depredations of a skunk, and the superintendent found several of them gone one morning this week. One of the satisfying incidents about the bird life at the park developed re- cently when the superintendent saw or {had reported to him two broods of | Pheasants and one of Hungarian par- i tridges from the birds which were re- leased and have been allowed to wan- | der at will. Omne of the broods of! pbheasants contained nine young ones, | and the other also had a good number, | although these could not be counted. The partridges are making a habitat | on the Dr. Hill land adjoining a part| of the park. The cover here is what | they like, as the growth of underbrush ! is suited for hiding in. The number of citizens who visit the park now is on the increase every | week, and there is an ever-growing number of picnic parties to be found there on any day of the week. The roses, which made a fine display this vear, both at the arbor at the dam and at the Platt avenue entrance, have passed their season now, but there are a mumber of plants and shrubs of different varieties in the park that are in flower.

TESTING HYDRO-AEROPLANE No Attempt Yet to Get Into the Air— Engine Working Well. The Gallaudet hydro-aeroplane, the third machine of the air that has been constructed at the plant of the Gal- laudet g company in given a preliminary trial on the river this week. Without attempting to lift the craft from the water into the air, it was found that the 50 horse-power Gnome engine could easily prepel the boat-shaped underbody at a speed of approximate- ly 26 miles an hour. The seven cyl- inder motor fired nicely and the test as a whole was distinctly encourag ing. After their disastrous experi- ence with the Bullet at Mineola last summer, the builders are proceeding with cautifon in their further attempt at aerfal flight and other trials on the water will be made before going higher. A recent visit to the New York market convinces the Gallaudets that there is a considerable demand for improved models of flying craft AUTO UPSET TEAM.
