Sea birds are always interesting OBJ.
jects to voyagers, snys a writer in
Ocean. They follow q weasel some.
times all the way across, ever restless
and untiring. Thegulls particularly,
with their long, swift wings, realize
the highest powers ofendurance, and
fly with ease against the severest
storms. Some say that these birds
never visit the earth except to de-
post their eggs; otherwise they live
constantly between the sen and sky.
In fine weather they fly high in the
air, defending with great rapidity to
seize the fishes on the surface of the
water. The symmetry and strength
Of the gulls are remarkable. showing
how nature has adapted them in
every particular for the purpose OF
long fight. Their pectoral or breast
muscles, are one solid mass of firm,
hard muscle, and their bones are hol-
low, having no marrow in them.
Sleep is not necessary to them; or.
rather, they rest upon their wings and
allow themselves to be Graded by the
breezes, whose violence neither wor-
ries nor frightens them. On the 9TH
err hand, they seem to feel a fierce de-
light in the fury of the storm, which,
convulsing the waves, brings up the
dead fishes and mollusks.
Sailors are very fond of playing off
n joke upon the gulls, which are ul.
ways hoveringabout theships. They
take three or four pieces of sail Irvine
about 6 feetin length. These are tied
together in the middle, and to the end
of each a small piece OF blubber or fat
is attached tightly and then thrown
into the sea. "A gull comes along and
swallows one piece. Another then

swallows the next. Prehaps third

gorge his SHIRE, and thisis continued
to the tantalizing suspense of the
poor gulls and the great fun of the
passengers and sailors.

He Would Not TRY Again.

A party OF militia men were having
n prize shoot one day, turkeys being
the marks and prizes, when the late
DIR. Hardy came along and they
urged him to try his hand. He was
a little reluctant to do SO, knowing
that he could readily outshoot any
of them, but finally acce,led and was
just aiming an ordinary shotgun
loaded with buckshot at one of the
turkeys when he saw an eagle in
rapid flight high up in the air. The
doctor aimed at the eagle and by n
marvellous shot killed it. The royal
American bird f!oated to the ground
and all the marksmen looked at DR..

PHYSICIAN AND PRIEST.
A ColOred Man Who Says He Is
Called by the Lord.

Colored Man Who Says He Is
Called by the Lord.
For the past year numbers of
cOlOred people, and many white,
have been tlOcking to little house
on Stirling street, Just above
Eager. They went there to be
healed Oftheir diseases, and, &C
cOrding to their own account, their
came away healed. The house is
No. 1905 Stirling street, and is oc-
cupied by Robert Sleys, colored,
as dwelling. In it is an office
occupied by cOlored man, who
says he was called by God to
preach the gospel, and to heal the
sick and their diseases.
This man is q colOred teamster,
80 years old. His name is G. w.
Kennard. He told last night how
the Lord had called him to this
work. Up to June, 1888, he was
a teamster, owned several furni-
ture wagons, and made business
of moving furniture. On the 18th
of June, 1888, he was seated in his
room reading the Bible, when he
heard a knock. There was no one
in the house, so he listened, and
heard the knock repeated three
times, and a voice said: ~ have
anOmted you to a great work.
You are to preach my gospel and
TO heal the sick, with out respect
to persons of color"
EKennOrd said he was in this
trance ,.. for five, hours. "Then,"
said no, 81, like other people,
hardened my heart, and would not
obey the call. Then the Lord
smOte me, and | lost $4,000 worth
of horse flesh in a few days. Then
| refiIled my stables, but in few
ont of nine horses had but one
left"
Kennard said he then looked
into his heart to see where he
was resisting his, Maker, and hefelt
that the Lord had called him to
this great work, so, on February
%, 1889, he announced his aims
and objects to an overlooking
house, and since then he has been
preaching and dOctoring. He |
claims he can cure all diseases,
saying: IL am so cricked with the
spirit Of God that | can cure any
disease" He also said: cat times .
] can speak Greek, Latin and other
languages as well as any one. Be
fore my trance could hardly
speak my own language.'
That is Remarks story of his
call as a priest and physician.
Since February, 1889, his office,
1905 Stirling street, and his house,
S23 Stirling etreet, have been
crowded daily by white and color
ed people. Kennard does not
claim to be a faith cure Ia many
case he uses herbs, which, blessed
by God, heal the patient. He has
probably made a great deal of
money, though he makes no
charge for his services, only re.
ceiving what his patient gives him.
He has several horses and a
carriage, and drives around to see
his patients.
Kennard is a muIatto, dresses
well, and is about ) feet s inches
IN height. In cOnversing he pays
no regard to garmmer, and con-
5tantIy uses the largest words he
can thing OF, without any regard to
heir meaning. When he can not
think Of one he manufactures a
word which he nor any one else
overheard Of. lie is implicitly be-
Ievcd by hundreds of colOred and
white people. They believe he is
