Judge Clark and who made his escape
from the asylum the other day. was
brought up in department five, before
Judge Shaw, bright and early yester-
day.
During the examination it developed
that DR. Sanborn had been permitted
to come to this city by the medical di-
rector at Highland for the purpose OF
tranSacting some necessary business.
Instead of returning, however he de-
termined to stay where he was and en-
Joy the sweets of liberty. Realizing,
however, that he was liable to be per-
emptorily arrested and returned to the
asylum. he went to Messrs. Ladd 4
Hughes in order to enlist them in cham
pionng his cause, with the result as
stated yesterday in these columns Off
Ger Kimball tried to hustle the patient
to the train in order to avoid service of
q writ, and Under Sheriff Clements re-
duced himself in weight about ten pounds
in racing after the two in order to make
service of the papers. But he did it.
Yesterday. in passing upon the matter.
Judge Shaw said that without doubt
Dr. Campbell, the medical director at
the asylum, was the proper person to
pass upon the mental condition of pa
tient. Though DR.. Sanborn thought he
had fully recovered from his indisposi-
ton. the fact that the officials at High
land had not given him discharge in
d1cateQ that IN tnelr OPINION ne ndu not
fully recovered. For the reasons stated,
the writ was discharged and the pa
tient remanded to the custody sent to
return him to Highland.
The law provides that in case such
as that of DR.. Sanborn a jury may be
demanded to pass upon the mental con-
dition of the person seeking relief Nei-
ther of the attorneys for the defense
had the wit to make this demand yes
terday and so the question resolved itself
into one of differing opinion merely be-
tween the court and DR.. Sanborn. and
as the court had the power to enforce
its order. the opinion of the person
whose interests were at stake was not
worth the breath taken to express ii.

TALKING OF BIRDS.
There is No Universal Bird Ian.
guage.

Two features in the talking" Of birds
will occur to everyone. There Is no
universal bird language" or even a
language common to two species.
though certain sounds OF warning when
uttered by one species are naturally
understood by another. Secondly, the
talking faculty Is very capriciously dis
tributed. The crows, which easily
learn to initiate human speech, have
very few notes or calls. The Jay has
only one, a harsh screech, modified
when 1t is pleased into a croak; and
chuckle, varied by a squeak, Is the
whole natural vocabulary OF the mag
pie Yet the piping crow and the nut
cracker-crow are songsters Of a rather
high order, and the former has an in
finite variety of words" and calls.
The absence Of any universal bird
speech Is seen most clearly by any one
who observes their habits in places
where such a common language would
naturally be expected. On the shores
Of some estuaries, or of the North Nor
folk Coast, 1t is possible TO see from
q thousand to perhaps 5000 birds
closely united in race, and living all
day in sight Of one another, aSsociaung
In flocks, with common feeding grounds
and common dangers-a community
OF plovers, knots, ring dotterels, stnts,
curlews, sandpipers and other kindred
species. Their interchange of ideas by
means of the voice is very limited. and
a common code might easily be learnt.
They require call note Of inquiry
Where are you?'-another for an an
swer, sometimes the same note-"Here
] am an alarm note, and note ut
tered when flying or rising from the
ground, which may be interpreted as
q sound of mutual encouragement or
pleasure. Not a trace of common
code" appears. Each kind has It's own
call, its own answer. and IT'S own
"fighting'' note. Their many and va
rious musical whistles make one Of the
charms of the winter shore; but they
show the curious secionalism Of bird
language.
The ease with which they might
adopt a common tongue is evident from
the fact that many coast men learn
some, and few of great natural abil-
Afy as fowlers learn all Of these calls
As in Heligoland, where the islanders
t'whistle down passing birds from the
sky. so on the Norfolk Coast there are
men who can "call down" a single
golden plover a stint, or even a cur
lew. One Of the most extraordinary
Instances ever known, both OF the
mans skill and Of the birds intense
and unsuspecting reliance on language
occurred not long ago on the Norfoib
Coast. where a noted caller" brought
o golden plover down from a great
hight in the sky, and kept 1t running
about within a few yards Of party
lunchang In the sand hills. 1t Is re-
marked also that the peewit. which has
the largest range of notes of all shore
birds. and therefore Is presumably the
cleyerest at distinguishing the meaning
and differences Of the peewit language
L. also the most difficult to call. y
