INDIA BAYA BIRDS.
They Wisely Light Their NmU with
Klrellifta.
Many birds fluetpend tholr neats from
the branches of trees, one of the most
curious nests of that kind belns that
of the baya hird of India, says Animal
Friends. It ia hunn from the branch
like an Inverted bottle, so as to be
secure from the approach of tree
snakes and other reptiles. The most
curious thins about the baya bird Is
that it is said to light up its nest by
t ticking tire Hies on lu side, with
clay or soft mud. There seems to be
little doubt of the fact. Dr. Buchanan I >r,le5' hB married in January, soon

SAVES HER FATHER.
! Arton.the cunning tool of the greater
conspirators in the famous Panama
bribery scandals, has recently been re-
leased from a French prison.after serv-
ing four of the five years to which he
was sentenced. His pardon Is due to
the untiring efforts of his daughter
Mile, \rton, whose beauty and earn-
estness have both been factors in en-
listing the aid of prominent statesmen
and journalists. When the Panama
bubble was pricked Arton, who had
been warned, disappeared from Paris.
Secret service agents followed him ail
over Europe, and finally ho was run
to earth and arrested in London. Of
