Therefore it is important to know what to buy. bow and where. This year I have decided to make a little chick feed, composed of choice grains and seeds, carefully selected and perfectly granulated and screen- ed.

Attract a Great Deal of Attention From Visitors Along the Hudson River. NEW YORK, May 16.~Tbe two Japanese cruisers Tsukuba and Chl- tose, which are anchored in the Hud- son, off the Soldiers‘ and Sallora' Mon- ument, are attracting much attention. They are the first commissioned Jap- enesc warships ever to visit New York. Crowds gather along the shore to look at them, while :1 Motel small boats continually hovers about them. The Tuskuba is a new warship, but the Chltose is a veteran of the recent war. The 'I‘sukuba was finished last year, and the Japanese are especially proud of her because every bit of her is Japanese, and she was one of the first modern warships ever built at home. She is of 13,750 tons and car- ries four 10-inch and ten 8-inch guns. The Chitose is a protected cruiser. of 4,900 tons, and was built at. the Un- ion iron Works, in San Francisco. She was in the battle of the Sea of Japan. in thatflgbt it is reported that she sank no less than two of Roiestven- sky’s fleet and won many scars. She carries two 8-inch guns and four 7-inch guns. ‘ Most of the crews on both ships were in the battle of the Sea of Japan, and are regarded as the pick of the Japanese Navy. \ While the ships are in port an an usual amount of liberty will be given to crews: They number about 1,400 men. This afternoon 700 of them will visit the Hippodrome and tomorrow 11. like number will see the show. MARK TWAIN‘S MANSION. w. w, Sunderlond.Awordcd Contract ‘ for-tits Construction.
