. A Rare Bird.

A large gray eagle was on exhibition
at the Palace Saloon all dav yesterday
and hundreds of persons went there
to see it. The bird, though only two
months old, is an immense animal
measuring six feet seven and a half
inches from tip to tip of the wings.
The talons are nearly six inches across
and beak and talons are cruel looking
weapons. The eagle. was captured
near the ranch Of the Whites, in Fish.
er county, Texas, about twelve miles
from Sweetwater, and was sent by ex.
press, by Mr.. Robt. White, as pres.
ent to his brother. Mr.. Henry White.
The latter will have large cage built
for the carnivorous bird which seems
able at two months old to carry off a
lamb, and to be able at a year old to
carry off a sheep.
