THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, RETURNS FROM BIG SHOOT Fred Goodrich Talks of American Handicap at Kansas Oity, LARGE CROWD RATTLES THE MARKSMEN Suggeation that Hereafter There Will Be " Me i Two g Meap e Fas One lndhe West, Fred Goodrich has returned from Kaneas City, where he entergd the Grand Ameriean handicap, but dropped out with many others after the sixtee1th bird had been killed or missed. According to Mr. Goodrich the ma- Jority of the men miss and at the six teenth bird only forty-four of the 453 who faced the traps at the first mained with clean scores. Of these men only one 18 a Nepraskan, . H. Beard of Herman, who shoots under the name of "B 27." The members of the Omaha Cun elub ecoring only one miss at the conclusion of the shooting Thursday were W. D. Town- wend, Dan Brey of Syracuse, F. Moore of Lincoln and John Taggart. These men still have a chance for money, but two misses is considered equivalent to a knock-out until after the twentieth bird has fallen. “The western shooters are having the best of the meeting,” sald Mr. Goodrich “The eastern men are practically all gone and the men who arc in the front rank are from the middle west. The birds aro better than have ever been seen at an American handieap, every one of them swift and trong, and the man who wins with & clear score at this meeting will have done some shooting. “The birds and the men are the only things that are all right at the meeting. The provisions made for caring for the crowd are inadequate. It is Impossible to &ot a seat and the shooters have to stand up all the time or be crowded so that they are rattled when they go to the traps. The grounds are new and damp and are very uncomfortable. Many complaints are heard, but no one expected such a large number of people at the shoot. May Be Division Hereafter. “People have seen at Kansas City prob- @bly the iargest number of trap shoot- ers which will ever be brought together in America. There are more than twice as many as were ever assembled on a like oc- easlon, and for this reason this is probably the last meeting of the Grand Americah Hgndicap as at present organized. Leading m¥n at the meeting say that the country 1 t00 big to hold one natlonal event of this kind and that hereafter there will probably be two bandieaps, one held in the east and one in the west. At the present meeting, ‘when there is the slightest delay there is werious trouble, as the number of men lined up is so great and the time so short that everything must move perfectly in order to carry out the program. “One pecullar circumstance was the large mumber of people who missed their first bird. They seemed to be excited at the size of the event and sixty-three men let their first bird escape. Of the Omaha club George Simpkins and Haefer of Council Bluffs had the worst luck. They killea their birds, but after the pigeous had set- tled down to dle quletly something scared them so that they again arose and flew out of bounds before they could be retrieved. ““The best score so far made by a Ne- ‘braskan s that of ‘Farmer’ Burke of Elgin. He killed thirty-two birds before he missed any, holding two stralght scores in events preliminary to the handicap. Then he got rattied and (s out of the race, having missed two hixds, ip the firat fifteen. PLAYING OUT HIS STRING For Doing Such a Thing Young Man James Aubury was arrested yesterday aft- ernoon by Officer Baldwin on complaint of Nat Brown, proprietor of the Murray hotel, and W. R. Bennett, who charge him with obtaining money under false pretenses. Aubury applied at the Murray hotel for board several weeks ago, representing him- mell to be the advertising agent for W. R. ‘Bennett. He was given accommodations and two nights ago borrowed $5 from the clerk and also $5 from the manager of the ‘Western Union Telegraph company on the strength of being connected with the Ben- nett establishment. Yesterday morning Mr. Brown learned that Aubury had been em- ployed by the Bemnett company during their opening only. He owes the hotel a $25 board bill. Aubury registered from New York and sald he recently resigned a posi- tlon as advertising man with Marshall Fleld of Chicago. He was locked up.

County Clerk Harry C. Miller patted his office force on the back yesterday afterncon because the members established what he believes to be a record for the office Friday morning, when they waited on 23 pension- ers by noon and 300 by 2 o'clock. The callers come the fourth day of each third menth to have thelr acknowledgements taken, preparatory to the payment of the claims. The bullding inspector has condemned the three-story brick bullding on Douglas street occupied by the Star theater, a awnshop and a wholesale liquor tore. F'he walls are bulging, he says, and are iiable to collapse ai any time.' He has given the owner of the bullding, John I. Redick, twenty-four hours in which to tear it down and if it is not razed by that time the work will be done at the city's expense, Persons recetving letters from Braingrd, Neb., may have noticed that they bear & ecuffar mark and may have wondered ecause of it. The reason is given by post- office inspectors, who say that a telegram was recelved a few days ago to the effect that the postmaster at Brainard is sick of smalipox and that for some time while sick he served in the office. For this reagon they issued Instructions to have all mall sent from that office disinfected. Tt is _not believed that any serious results will follow. The chairman of the general committee of Emmet branch of the United Irish league has sent invitations to & large num- ber of prominent citsens of Omaha and the state requesting them to act as honor- ary vice presidents of the meeting to be hela ‘on the evening of April § at" Boyd's theater.

STRANGE HABITS OF DIFFERENT SPECIES Character) Noted by Observers—Life in the Alr, on Land and and Eccentricities Clowe on the Water. It 18 not without significance, writes Olive Thorne Miller in the New York Times, that the Sphinx is represented with wings, for the bird, wjth the marvels and mysteries of his life, is still a wonder to us. Early in any really close study habits one {s struck with this fact. Years of careful observation and study “‘without a gun” will be necessary before we shall be familiar with his many extraordinaiy ways, and still more before we shall be able to understand the eccentricities of a simple The whole subject of migration, for ex- ample, is wonderful, and full of problems which have furnished material for miles of manuscript and bushels of books, and are still unsolved. And Herr Gatke bas added one more, having discovered that the birds always travel with perfectly empty stom- ach The remarkable feat of sinking the body in water to any desired depth, and holding it there without motion, and without cling- ing to anything, ls another unexplained secret. Geese, ducks, sandpipers and cor- morants are all expert in this maneuver. The alr would naturally appear to be the domaln of winged creatures, yet many of them are almost equally at home in the water. A fish itself might envy the speed and ease with which the penguln and ouzel dash about in the native element. Hardly more than a fish does that strange creature, the petrel, need to come to land; eating and sleeping on the waves, his only tie to earth is the necessity of a cradle for the helpless young. Whole famlilies of sea birds pase their lives in and on the ocean, and come to the shore only for the nesting season. We smile at the idea of a seabird who is as much at home on water as on land, needing or wishing to ride, yet the tropic bird 15 sald occasionally to vary his wing exercires by alighting for a sall on the back of a tortolse which he finds lazily floating on the surface. Major Bendine tells of a little owl at the west caught riding on the back of an unwilling gopher with an air of such composure that the observer was convinced that it was a common ex- ploit of the bird. Keep Off the Earth. If it seems strange to think of birds spending their lives on the water it ie al- most as odd to know of whole famliies who &pend theirs in the air and never come to the ground. In some of the tropical for- ests where trees are between 200 and 300 feet in height, the upper branches and the air above them are the home of count- less birds and insects and monkeys. More than 200 feet from the earth below they find not only light and air, but food in plenty, and even water in the various reser- voirs of the glant plants and creepe Birds bave many extraordinary habits, with which all arc so familiar as to fail to realize their eingularity. The strange babits of the European cuckoo, shirking the pains and pleasures of nest-making an¢ rearing a family, and even in the cradle, it i{s said, evicting the rightful nestlings te secure exclusive care; the hornbill, wall. ing up his mate, with her istance, dur. ing the procese of brooding and feedizg ihe young—and many others. Some persons will perhaps scoff at the {dea of a bird's polite manners, and we shall hear again the old complaint of those who have no real acquaintance with birds in their homes that we make them too buman, but let me present a few trust- worthy facts—explain them who can. Many of our winged fellow-creatures welcome the approach of their mates by a sudden open- ing and closing of the wings. The several kingbirds, whom I have studied, first flew around in a circle of a few feet, added a note or two of greeting, then lifted the wings with an air that “spoke lounder than word: The sea eagle, according to Audu- bon, answers the note of his mate by open- ing his broad wings, bending the body in a low bow, and uttering a cry. That we have not seen more of such things in bird life is probably because we have not studied them closely enough. The bows and genuflections of the burrowing owl of the west, as one passes his mound, which gives him the name ot “How-d'y-do owl,” and the well authen- ticated and oft-repeated account of the | cedar bird's offering a delectable morsel to his neighbor, in some cases passing it back and forth among several, both call for ex- planation from the skeptical. It is certalnly a most pecullar thing for a creature with wings to go over the ground on “all fours,” yet there are at least two well known birde who progress in that way “on occaslons.” One is the common grebe, so illy fitted for land travel that when there | is occasion for haste he simply drops to the ground and uses the wings as a second pair of legs, quadruped fashion. Individuality of Birds. In association with one another birds show as much individuality as men. There | are birds of eolitary tastes who are never | | tound with their kind, excepting with a | mate in nesting time, and others who mate for lite and are always found in pairs. of his life and | life which appears at a casual glance as | | recovers it snugly wrapped In the lining of | his gizzard. This 1s s0 extraordinary that we might be excused for doubting it were not abundantly confirmed by authent! witnesses Another African bird has what ! called dinner parties, where a number as | semble and by dancing about in a shallow Iake stir the inhabitants, fish, froge ete and then dine upon them. We hav { often heard of the trick of carrying a hard shell to a height and dropping it to break it and feast on the dweller therein, but one of the clever erow family has a gentler and | Quite as successtul a way. He simply taps on the door of the recluse—often a hermit jcrab. Of course that brings him out to sec | what it means, with the usual result The ehrike is recipient of much served abuse because he has the | habit of hanging up his cold meat on | thorns for future use, thus emulating our butchers—whom we do not think of despis ing for the same offense. There are many strange ways of adminis | tering food to the young, from the robin who drops it Into the mouth, to the flicker who rams and hammers it down till one is horrified at the sight, but the most curi ous is the way of a penguin. She comes in from the sea with a supply, then sticks her bill up into the alr and delivers a nolsy harangue as if ‘calling the world to witness. Meanwhile the youngster creeps up to her and walts till the speech is fin- ished and the mother bends her head down with mouth open. Then the infant thrusts his head Into her mouth and appears to suck something from the throat It has long been known that nature per- forms wonderful cures in the animal world; broken bones are joired, bullets encysted unde- able to live sometimes for years afterward But it remained for a modern naturalist to assert that the bird himself assumes tho office of surgeon. Prof. Fatlo, who s fn- dorsed by W. Warde Fowler as “one of the most distinguished of European natural- 1sts,” asserted before a scientific soclety of Geneva, Switzerland, that he had seen many cases of snipe dressing their wounds, even in one case applylng splints to a broken leg. It should not surprise us that a species which has been food for powder for ages should have developed some sur- glcal skill, SHIRT WAISTS FOR JUDGES Female Drummer Will Make Attack on the Dignity of the Judiciary. A report has reached the county court house that a Chicago shirt walst firm is conspiring to get its goods onto the backs of Douglas county judges as a means of booming the business and to that end will send a female drummer to interview the nagistrates next week, the orders to be glven through a local dry goods house. The prospect is dazzling. Anybody who ever walked far enough around Judge Es- telle to get a full conception of his rotund magnitude will concede that his first ap- pearance in a pale blue waist with fancy front and dainty cuffs will be a sight for ods, as well as lawyers, reporters and the other criminals to whom his somber coat, old-tashioned collar and gscendant necktie have become so familiar. As an Elk the Judge probably goes the limit in lodge ri:~al dressing, for off the bench he is pre-cia- inently a good fellow, but if he climls his throne of justice in this revised feminine toggery it will be an almighty different matter, and one of serious possibilities. Judge Keysor and Judge Fawcett would have difficulty In getting a shade that would harmonize with their hair, in which the gray Is fast crowding, out -the colors of youth. For obvious reasons Judge Slabaugh would have no such trouble, but the judge fs a zealous church worker.and not infre- quently on the rostrum where the propriety of a shirt walst is still questioned. Judge Dickinson might be a likely candidate, for he is the most stylishly dressed man on the local bench, and then again he might not be, for he s dignified to a degree and tol- erant of nothing flashy. Judge Baxter wears a buttonaire every day in the winter and might be prevalled on to wear uncov- ered linen of bright hue In the summer Judge Read would probably buy if he could get a waist long enough, but Judge Vinson- haler is off the list, as he has the sweater habit. Should the gentle dfummer have success with some of the judges, there is no telling where she wauld stop. She might even get Sherift Power, who ls a good deal of a ladles' man, and Chalrman Hofeldt of the Board of County Commissioners.

Still others of the tribe live al- | ways in & crowd, not even in nesting time separating from their fellows. Thie is the habit of grackles, martins, swallows and | others. They are not associated for mu- tual protection, for most of them are abund- | | antly able to take care of themselves, but | | evidently for pure love of society. Ope of these communities is as soclable and talk- | ative as a sewing society or an afternoon | tea As 1o the various ways of food getting ‘n the bird world some of the large sea birds get it by robbing other birds, and the Eng- | 1ish sparrow is rapidly becoming expert in | this business.

The report was not made public until the agent for the building in which the postofiice station is now located heard a rumor of it and went to the postmaster for confirmation. The | postmaster sald “Yes, I made such a report in the course of my annual report oy the condition of the stations and the office geperally. It is un- | derstood generally that I &m opposed to the | present system of atations, and this Is true, | as the stations are at present organized. | It we could have mail for the stations pouched direct to them it would be differ- ent, but under the present conditions it will be years before this is done, so I now think that we should place those stations where | they will do the most good for the greatest | number of people. “What should be done in Omaha 1s to | abolish all stations. They were created when the floor space in the main office was limited and it was as much for this reason | as for anything else that carriers were sent | to these sub-stations. There will be floor epace sufficient in the new building to acs | comnioaate the mails of Omaba for many | years and much time could be saved in the | delivery of letters if all carriers left the main office.”” When it was learned that the postmaster serlously desired the removal of the station from its present site interested parties en. tered a protest and it is probable that this protest will be generally signed by patrons of the station and sent to Washington.
