The Cockotilios are about about tho size of & small pigeon and are of a gray- fsh-fawn color, with bright crests and bright spots on the cheeks. They are eazy to breed in captivity, especially it & small room is used for a1 a the birds are supplied with Keg with a hole cut in one they may nest. The shell parrakeets are Attracting « great deal of ati they are small birds, ot a b color, and as they give cx great deal of attention, 1nsy havs beem called love bir They are quite com- mon in Australia and some of the neigh- boring islands, whers they are known %s the warbling grass parrakeets, and they do considerable damage to grain and rice flelds. The natives capture them by the thousands for export to the United Statss. American fanciers have discovered that these birde will breed in sptivity and a euitable nest box can be made of a hollow cocoanut shell. There tre tWo varleties of shell parrakests, y&llow and green, and they are very in- taresting birds to watch. They tame caslly and in some instances have been taught to talk and do various tricks, and sing in a droll littls volce. Mr. Parent also has a handsome - Amazon parrot In his aviary which s a brilllant selored and, gentls bird. Great uumbers o¢ thess parrots are now being imported from South America, as at this season of the year, theze are not many parrots marketed from Mexico.

A group of New Haveners, among them George. Dudlay Seymour, became active in the matter, when the war de- partment announced jts plan, fearing that the reservation might be sold to a private’party and its use lost to the city. 1t'was pointed out at’ths time that the government had no appropriate memorial to Nathan Hale, Connecticut's, Revolu- tionary patriot, and suggested that the reservation be set aside for this pur- pose. Mr. Seymour communicated with Con- gressan Tilson, who tried to have a blll passed by tha house transferring title in the reservation to the city of New Haven. ' It soon -becams apparent that this would be futile, since the house aid not want to establish such a prece- dent, and after further communication with Mr." Seymour, Congressman Tilson amended_ the bill to have title transfer- red to the state. This bill was passed by the house several months ago. Ar, Seymour wrote to Senators Bran- deges and McLean of Connecticut and Senator Wadsworth of New York. who is chalrman of.the. senate. committes on military affairs, urging them to work for passage of the bil. but nothing definite was done. ' Mr. Sermour got in touch with Congfessman Tilson when the lat- ter returned from. Etrope recently and the congressman apparently pushed the matter, for Mr. . Sevmour received a talegram from Lim saying that the sen- ate had passed the bill." Tt is expected tHat the president will sign the bill, thus saving the plot to the community. No definite action has been taken yet in regard to the.military. reservation at Lighthouse Polnt, which the war de- partment also ‘annouriced it would aban- don for military purposeés.
