An Owl on the Ocean,

Birds get lost in the air some
times, as really as boys get lost in
the woods. Far northern species
are often storm-driven out of their
native latitude, and no doubt sink
in the sea. One day a steamer
which arrived at New York from
Liverpool brought strange passen-
ger who had boarded that vessel in
mid ocean. A large, white owl
dropped on one evening when the
vessel was about 500 miles off the
coast of Newfoundland. When
brought to the deck by sailor the
owl was found to be nearly dead
from cold and hunger, and almost
to weak to eat. 1t had become
greatly emaciated, and trembled vi
olenly in endeavoring to swallow
the first morsel of meat which was
placed in its beak. The owl slow
ly recovered and is now perfectly
well. 1t is a land bird, and is sup.
posed to have been blown of the
coast OF Newfoundland by the
westerly gales which had for some
days previous prevailed there.
Finding itself once out at sea, it
had probably ceased making effort
to reach the land, and had drifted
before the gale, its only efforts be-
ing to keep above water. The
bird must have possessed remarka-
bic powers of endurance to have
kept up so long.
