southern California and in the spring
fills the air with sweet notes while
sailing above and around without any
other apparent object than to give an
aerial concert. 1t is either In the air
or on the ground, never lighting upon
trees-no half way ground.
Those tropical gems, the humming
birds, are here distinct from those
found In the east. The calliope hum
mer is q Mexican species and not found
north of Los Angeles. The coast hum
mer does not venture far inland. 1t Is
green, and the head is a metallic violet.
The broad-tailed species is green, with
red throat. They prey upon the
flowers, sucking honey from them, and
when the scarcity of dew renders tho
sweet saccharine difficult to get they
fall back upon insects
The water ousel, or hydrobata Mex
icana, Is one Of the most curious birds
on the Pacific coast. 1t is a size larger
than the sparrow. slate color, short
tail. and lives on the banks OF streams
feeding on water insects and small
fishes, which it catches by diving,
swimming, or walking under the wa
ter, or flying along its surface. It Is
not web-footed, but has remarkable
powers Of locomotion-more than the
average aquatic bird possesses The
female builds her nest Of moses, under
rill or dam where the water trickles
over the top, keeping the moses green
and cool, also hidden from enemies.
In the spring, when it is billing and
cooling time, the male takes q position
on a distant rock In the stream and
their bird love is heard in their sweet
resounding notes.
The white-headed eagle. which Is
seen as the emblem Of America on our
flag and white metal" is now very
rare in California. owing to tourists
who think they are compelled to kill
something. This American eagle
was very numerous before the Ameri-
cans came to this country. The Mex
ican settlers preserved them from de-
struction because the eagles killed the
ground squirrels And strange enough,
as if by tacit understanding, the
eagle seldom broke the treaty by kill
ing the domestic animals Of the Mex
ican. But when the American settlers
began to shoot these eagles, merely
from a wanton desire to see them
''drop," the eagles made . war in turn
upon chickens, turkeys, even flying

WHEELS N THE ARMY.
Great Increase In Bicycles for the AFnil
Of EurOpo.

Great Increase In Bicycles for the Afnlsa
Of Europe.
The use of bicycles in all the armies
Of Europe has been enormously in
creased during the last two years. In
Holland members of the various bicycle
clubs who have already attained their
twenty-first year and are proficient in
their art are invited to join the army
under certain advantageous conditions.
The number of posts offered is seventy
FIVE. The candidates are paid fifty
guldens year for the wear and tear
of their machines, are given the rank
Of corporal, and presented with .
uniform to be worn during service.
When upon duty the bicycles are
allowed five guldens . day. From
the LIST of March to the 30th Of April
they receive instruction twice . week
from an officer in military affairs. The
candidates have to bind themselves to
be ready during a space of five years ia
be called out at any moment by the
war minister, and also to attend ma
neuvers for at least three weeks every
year. At the end of the first five years
they can enter on another term of five
years. These arrangements are said to
have met with great success in Hol-
land, and it is probable that the mum.
ber of military bicyclists will shortly
be increased.
In Portugal bicycles have been intro
duced in the army, and have met with
much success They were proved in
the great maneuvers which took plac<
at Tancos to supply q want long felt
In Spain bicycle instruction in the
infantry and rifle corps now forms 9
speciality. Money prizes are offered
to the best riders. In time of ma
neuvers the bicycles are used for tho

Az usual upon disputed points, specu-
lation has been busy about the origin
Of the diamond. and . number Of
theories, all moro or less probable,
have been propounded to set the mat
ter at rest. The two most reasonable
expositions are, perhaps, the explanar
tions put forward by N. Parrot and
Baron Liebig.
The former scientist, who has labo-
riously Investigated the perplexing sub
iect, is of the opinion that the diamond
arises from the operation Of violent
volcanic heat on small particles Of car.
bon contained in the rock, or on sub
stance composed Of = large proportion
of carbon and . smaller quantity Of
hydrogen.
BY this theory, a. he conceives, We
are best able to account for the cracks
and flaws 50 often noticed in the gem,
and the frequent occurrences Of i'm
cluded particles Of black carbonaceous
matter.
Baron Liebig. on the other hand.
claims the credit Of Offering . simple
explanation Of the probable process
which actually takes place in the Tor
nation of the diamond. His conten-
tion is that science can point to no
process capable Of accounting for the
origin and production Of diamonds ex-
cept the powers Of decay.
If We suppose decay to proceed In :

Captain Knight to Lecture in the Interest
of the G. A. r., october 8.


of the G. A. r., October 8.
The G. A. R. has secured the services
Of Captain W. G. Knight, the engineer
who run the locomotive that was cap
tured by the Andrews raiders, at Big
Shanty, Georgia, in 1852.
Captain Knight comes to us recon-
mended by almost every society in the
land as giving one of the most thrilling
and bloOd-cudling events of either
ancient Or modern warfare. He tells
how the Andrews raid was planned and
carried out, the horrors Of prison life,
the capturing of train of cars in the
midst of an enemys camp, surrounded
by 10000 armed rebel soldiers, the per-
suit for life, the abandoning Of the train,
fugitiyes in the woods, captured in
prison, cut out, seven hung, recaptured,
breaking Jail, etc. All yiyidly portrayed
by one who was an important actor in
the heroic scenes. This is no magic
lantern affair, the paintings are realistic
and fully and truthfully represented.
All the principle events of the history
we are lead to believe from the immense
testimony. From what we have reat
and know of this affair you cannot affort
to miss it. 1t is also an object lesson il
history that should be handed down from
