How a Sacred Bird of Siam Was Snug
gled Into San Diego.

How a Sacred Bird of Siam Was Snug
gled Into San Diego.
'Ha, ha, hal Why don't you get chair
to sit down onP'
The voice was rather loud but not dis.
agreeable, and the tone somewhat muffled,
as of person half choking with laughter.
The salutation came to the newsgatherer
of the San Diego Times as he was on his
daily perambulations about the city, and
was traced to a handsome blue-black bird
in a cage hanging under the shade Of fig
tree at the residence of DR.. Gildea, on Six
teenth street, near II.
AS the reporter approached nearer he
was received with more laughter and in.
quiries as TO whether he came to see the
"Mino,' if his health were good, etc.
A few inquiries directed TO a pleasant
faced lady near by elected the information
that the bird was the sacred Mino of Siam,
which as a nesting had been smuggled
from the temple where it was bred by a
rowing sea captain and sold to DR.. Gildea at
Honolulu about eight years ago.
Minnie, as she is called, is about half the
size of crow and nearly as black. In the
sunlight the feathers take blue and green
tinge, and there is a spot Of white upon
each wing and necklace of bright yellow
about the throat.
The bill, which is large and strong,
tapers to sharp point and is orange hued
near the head and lemon-colored at the tip,
The prominent eyes are dark and bright,
feet and legs Iemon-colored.
The bird is valued at $3.50, but specimens
have been known to bring 1000 in the
United States, where but few Of them have
ever been brought
The species is carefully guarded in Siam
and as none are ever sold they can only be
obtained surrepti,iOusly.

How Two Men Fought for a Lady ant

Something like fifty years ago two youns
men one lawyer and the other doctor
loved the same girl in the town of Gran,

icle. Both could not nave her, and neithel
could live without her. 1t was to be a due
to the death. There was no insult to b,
avenged by a discharge of firearms, n
stain on a reputation to be wiped out by
few drops of blood. The lawyer said

rangements for a massacre were complete
The principals were armed with rifles, re
volvers and bowle-knives. They had NOR
confidence in the continuation of their hat
than in the accuracy of their aim. TIL
rifles were to be discharged first at twent,
PAGES. If neither combatant was kille,
they were to advance, firing their revolver
| at will, and if they still lived the battle wa.
to be continued with the knives.
1t was early morning when the party o
four men, principals and seconds, lett tn
little town of Grand Gulf and sought
grove few miles distant. No effort q
reconciliation was made; no time was los
N the prenminaries. The men were placed

schoed the signal. The lawyer stumbled

There was no more fighting, although til

made about the fight, and she was removed
to another part of the State. The lawyer
recovered and went TO Holly springs, where
he became all Episcopal minister.
