| WoNDERFuL BIRDs.-One of the
greatest wonders in natural history is
the flight Of birds. We have been all
our lives so accustomed to see birds
that we are not now prone to marvel
at the wonders of their flight. We
must mediate upon the beautiful al.
engagements by which they are enabled
to raise themselves in the air and pro-
pei themselves through it. and We
must remember how utterly futile all
mans attempts to fly or make fly
ing machines have proved, and then
We are in condition to appreciate
the marvel which is daily before our
The frigate.bird is endowed with
magnificent powers OF flight. His
wings stretch to an expanse of about
ten or twelve feet; his body is about
three feet long; his bill is very pow.
erful, and adapted TO Selling. His
feet are webbed, but very small; he
has but little use for them, his home
being in the air, hundreds of leagues
away from land. He is seen soaring
high above the ocean, but on its boz
som he never rests. When he seeks
repose he finds it aloft in the air. His
foot rarely touches land except when
at the time Of pairing, making nests,
and rearing young. How is all this ?
The expanse of his wing is so vast,
and his body so light, that he can soar
with little or no exertion. Still it is
difficult to see how this would enable
him actually to sleep on the wing, as
it is believed he does. A more close
examination shows, however, that his
bones are hollow, and that there is a
large pouch communicating with his
lungs and with the cavities in the
bones. This pouch he can initiate with
air, and thus render himself buoyant;
the sustaining power thus acquired,
added to that of the wings, is sufficient
to keep him up.
If his home be in the air, if he

He watches one of the birds which

SAN FRANCISCO, November 24.-Al
though Judge Sullivan is slightly behind
in the count of votes for Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court according to the
latest returns, he will not concede his de-
feat until the question of rejected votes
in Los Angeles and San Diego counties
is settled in the courts. L. is reported
now that $50 votes were rejected
in the two counties because Sullivan q
name was printed below the line. The
space on the ballot would not give room
to print the name opposite the Office.
In counting these ballots it is said the
name was omitted entirely by the cleo
tion boards. Judge Sullivan has several
Supreme Court authorities on this point
deciding that the voters intention, and
not the exact location of the name, was
to be considered in the count. If the re-
port as to their rejection be true the
Judge will demand the exact count of all
those ballots.
