That may not be exactly the right word, but it has mechanical traffic cop has gone. To the uninitiated, let it be said that a mechanical traffic cop is an electrical contrivance that automati- cally changes the stop and go lights upon hearing the sound of the motor- ist's horn. 'When the announcement came out in the Philadelphia papers that a me- chanical cop was to be stationed at Thirty-fourth street and Powell Ave., a lot of people, having little else to do and wishin, ng to keep up with the world, motored out to see how it worked. They found the mechanical cop was an oblong box with an hon- est open face fastened to a pole by the roadside. Certainly not much' to look at in the. way of a cop! Along came a motorist and blew a clarion blast. The machanical cop seemed to shiver and the light went from red to green. Right 'behind came another motorist and he blew in a different key, long- er and louder. At the other side of the cross-roads more motorists ar- rive and began to blow. The light went from green to red, paused on the amber then back to green, More blowing and more blow- ing and more changes, until the poor mechanical "cop" began to show signs of getting berserger and berserker. It was "duck soup" for the motor- ists. Never before had they seen such a sensitive cop. Why, you can drive d8wn to Broad and Chestnut streets and blow your horn until your battery gasps for air and it has no more effect on the traffic cop than if you were a couple of love birds twit- tering away in the spring sunshine. That's how it is with a traffic cop who is regular at his trade. But the mechanical officer--that's something else again. And so the motorists were having a swell time "kidding it along," well realizing that they sel- dom got the opportunity to "kid" a traffic cop. And so the rapid changes from red to amber to green to amber to green to amber to red continued with the chorus of many horns until a fellow came along with one of those sporty little roadsters:and a horn that goes ta, ta, ta-ta. That "berserged" the mechanical cop. His lights went out altogether and stayed out. SPARROWS THAT DYED FOR LOVE New York, March 25. -- "Young love birds" bought in West Indies by women passengers on the liner Reli- ance as mementos of a happy cruise were released to enjoy life in Cen- tral Park.

Jones, pre- sident of the Srivich 3 Aquarists' Asso- ciation, related to a reporter recently, some natural facts in this connection which may astonish the uninitiated. "Many of these small fish are live bearers," said Dr. Jones, who keeps a remarkably fine aquarium in his own house, "In other words, they spit their young out of their mouths-and in- cidentally are inclined to eat them again unless they can find refuge in some vegetation as soon as they are born, "The fish include dwarf pikes, sword-tails, limia and other breeds, all tropical and all about an inch in length, "You "can make various 'hybrids from these fish, including black, yel- low and white swords-tails, if kept away from the males the females re- main infertile, but when a male fer- tilises a female, the result is three breeds of about thirty. each when four to six months old. "You can tell the females by their bulging mouths, which become larg~ er and larger till the fish are born. Many aquarists breed small live bear- ers as food for the bigger fish.

MEXICAN ACTION Joins U.S. in in Represents- tions on Kidnapping of Mine Manager BE Washington, Mar. 25.--The Bri- tish Jegation has joined with the Arerican embassy in Mexico City, in making representations to the Mexican government, regarding the recent bandit raid on the La Noira mine near Sombrerete in the state of Zacatecas, the State de- partment was informed yesterday, T.

BANDIT SUSPECT 13 "To obtain a black sword-tail a male platys with a 'pronounced num- ber of black spots is crossed with a female sword-tail, and by constant in-breeding the pure black results. "Have you heard of the Siamese fighting fish, by the way? They breed him in Bangkok specially for fighting purposes, "A pair of these males are taken to a hall.and placed in a suspended globe while crowds gather round and watch the fun with frenzied enthu- siasm. Sometimes they fight for an hour at a time till one kills the other. "A great deal on money, changes hands in bets on these fights. "A new fighting fish has recently been imported from Germany, one of the finest tropical fish ever seen, It is a veil-tailed Beta Cambodia, about three inches long, and stares at the human stranger on the-other side of the glass with uth open ready to snap and fins standi raight out. "This fish builds a bubblé*nest. The male plows these bubbles, which are coated with mucus, till they form a | large mass that floats on the water. He then judges it time to find a bride, swims about 'till he picks his fancy and brings her to the nest. "She lays her eggs on the bubbles, and any that drop off the father im- mediately, picks up and replaces en the nest. Before the eggs are hatched, however, the male has al- ready driven his bride away, for he knows well that she has cannibalistic tendencies--like himself." For though he guards the eggs till they are hatched out he always: makes an at- tempt to cat the 'little ones, but they usually manage to escape to sure rounding - plants. "Here is a picture of h. butterfly fish from West Africa. They haye large wings as well as fins, and jump then alight and glide along the sur- face. It is a favorite sport on the west coast to shoot at them with re- volvers, but as you can imagine they are seldom hit. This' fish is practi- cally unobtainable here, with a price of fifteen to twenty 'pounds each. "Cichlids, of the fresh 'water . carp family, are the most ferocious of any. They are difficult 'to: mate, and have to be kept separate, for they fight and kill each other withilittle delay. "When they are once mated, how- ever, they take great care of their progeny. + A flower pot or hollow stone is found, which they clean spot- lessly and in which they rear their family. "They guard their eggs in alter.
