ABOUT RARE BIRDS.
Eggs That Are Worth Their Weight in
Ten. Dollar Bllls.

tous OOllAF bUISs
There are only four eggs of the,
great aux now in this country" says
an oologist ''and they are valued at
$500 each. 1t seems odd to think of a
bird becoming extinct, but no one has
seen Labrador duck. either, 4sinqs
1856. There are but five mountad
specimens in existence, and none of
the eggs are in existence. Kirtland's
warbler is another bird that is rare.
Until recently but seven had ever been
captured, and these all were found in
q region near Cleveland, Ohio, less
than a mile square. Specimens were
worth 800 apiece. But little while
ago a naturalist who CHANGED to visit
the Bahama Islands came upon a
colony of the birds, and knowing what
a mine he had struck, shot about
twenty and took them to this country.
When he began to unload. the story
came out and the market sagged, so
that now you can get Kirkland for s.
or Sc.
1.-The Connecticut warbler is another
bird of interest to biologists, because
no one has yet seen its eggs. It passes
up the Mississippi river in the early
spring and probably mates far in the
interior of British North America, and
goes South in the fall by the way of
the Atlantic seaboard. If anyone can
find the nest of this little fellow with
four eggs in it, it will be 5000 in his
OOcketn
