LARGE BIRD NESTS.
EssIes and Tropical Birds that Buiid Bie
and Conspicuous Homes.

A few days ago THE SuN told of a broodinR
swan mp in Central Park and mentioned the
fact that the nest was about four feet in diam.
eter. A morning paper was led into the error
NJ saying that "the swans nest Is probably
the largest and most substantial construction
made by any bird"
Capt. Bendirc. n well-know n naturalist. In
a series Of papers published some years ago In
Forest ard Stream told OF a very conspicuous
meet OF an eagle on an island on the Texas
coast. Tit island had one tree and n few
bushes. and was in Itself a. prominent feature
or the view and not at all tho kind OF place one
would suppose q bird would choose TO put UP
a largo nest. Nevertheless. a pair of eagles
reared their young for n number OF years on
this island. adding each year sticks and other
nest materials till, at the time OF the Captains
up to the height of six feet, with n top and
bottom diameter Of six feet.
Eagles In Florida build nests In trees. which,
after some wears of use are capable of sus.
tanning n mans weight. In fact, so level Is
the top and SO strong Is the structure that men
birds nests are. of course. small and inCom.
plcte, being merely n lot Of sticks thrown to-
gether and showing ineXnerience.
There is a tropical bird Of the genus Mega
p0dtus. species of which construct for their
nests huge heaps Of vegetable matter, which.
on decayinE. generates the heat that hatchei
the cRgs. These heaps are often ten and
twelve feet high, spreading over II circle $50
yards or more In circumference.
There are a good many tropical birds smaller
as large as or larger than the swans, and If
the swans built nests of the same proportion
ate size. the Central Park nest would not he
hidden by Il clump OF trees. let alone bushes.

US WOOD RATS.
They Built . House OF Railroad Spikes
and Lined IL with Rags.

The wood rat of the western slopes of the
Cascade range Is a curious creature that loves
TO steal so we'll that II is known TO many as
the camp robber. II carries Off anything 1t
can lay Its lips to. and is besides q jolly, reck-
less fellow. 1t does things which rodents
are not given to doing.
Forest aud Stream tells of some of II. IA.
vorite spells. 1t will take knives. forks. and
tin plates. cartridges, cups. and anything IT
can handle in the line OF clothing. towels. or
gun rags. which make soft Innings for. its nest.
1t is related how a pair of these rats staked
off a claim on top of q hunters camp stove,
and nut up the most curious rat house any
body ever heard Of. About 200 yards away
was a railroad shanty, where the section men
kept their supplies, and among other things
was a key of railroad spikes. such as are used
to fasten the rails to the ties. The rats took
some spikes to their claim, built up an iron
wall. and lined the interior with soft stuff.
IL Is a curious fact that all the points of the
spikes were directed Inward. and they
were laid with great regularity and irmness.
The habits of the rat are a study for a nat
uralist. and 1t makes things so interesting for
the natives that they kill il on sight.

MICE THAT LIKE MUSIC.
The Little Visitors OF n Boy Up in Harlem
VIII Possesses n Music Box.

A small boy up in Harlem has been anus
ing himself a good deal lately with the mice
which he finds about the cupboards in the
kitchen. Last Christmas Santa Claus
brought him a little music box. which played
two or three tunes when the crank was turned.
The boy played 1t night and day, and would
have taken it to school had his mother not
forbidden 1t. One evening just before bed
time, say $40 o'clock. he sat on the floor cross
legged and turning the tuneful crank. All OF
a sudden his mother. who was sitting by the
table. leapcd up on her chair with a scream.
1t Is a curious fact that house mice delight
in music boxes and other musical things. and
three OF them had come out of a hole and were
running all about the boy. who had not no.
ticed them. so busy was he playing the music
box. The mice scurri.d away at the shrek.
The next night when the boy played the mice
soon came out onto the floor and raced back
and forth. Now the mice are very tame, and
are fed occasionally by the boy.
A Forest and Stream writer once put an auto
matte music box out In the grass. and spent
many hours watching the robins. bluebirds.
and other birds gathering about It. A looking
glass. put up where the birds can see them
selves In 1t. is also very attrative, while n com
bination of a music box and a looking glass
plcases the birds more than anything else one
could put out for their amusement.

4 CURIOUS CAMP STOVE.
The Handy Contrivouce Devised by .
Woodsman Up in Maine.

An Aroostook. Me-, woodsman. +. b. White,
has a curious and unique arrangement for
cooking food over an opcn fire which he calls
a camp range. 1t consists OF a three-fourths
inch iron gas pipe, eighteen inches long. ham
cred to n point at one end and plugged with
metal, through which there are three small
holes. each of a size fit to hold the end of a
wire. say. three-sixteenths Of an inch in diam
eter. Loops are made of wire, into which skill
lets. pals, pans. or other tapering cooking
utensils are fitted snugly. A washer OF sheet
iron fits over the end OF the gas pipe, and Is
metal wristband. The washer serves to brace
The wires.
red embers and Goals placed about IT,. The
food is cooked easily and quickly. A coffee
pot hanger Ia also used, II being bent up, so
that the long coffee not will swing clear of the
fire. Had White cared to do so. he might have
made a snug sum OF money bv patenting and
selling his handy continuance.

A Parrot Fish with n Formidable Beak and
. Fish that Knocked q Man Oysrboard.

An EnRlishman tells in the London Field of
a painful experience he had at the Andaman
Islands with a parrot fish. The parrot fish
was OF a dirty olive tint, with brown spots, and
was possessed Of a formidable beak. not I'M
like a macaw's. only the points met instead
of overlapping, and II was composed of bone
instead of horn. It was brought 10 the sur
face by some experimental torpedoes. and the
Englishman picked II up and began poking
his finger around It, supposing the brute to be
dead, All Of, a sudden the open beaEs came
together with q snap and the Englishman
of was given by tho coxswain TO a panther
ueopard) cub.
This same coxswain and a number OF sailors
were drawing a seine for carnation carp. whose
scales were the size OF rupees and skin as
tough rs leather, when, as The seine closed
up, a big Ash fetched the coxswain a blow In
the abdomen that knocked him galley west
over the boats rail and into the water. That
upset the boat. but all hands were rescued,
and the fish we're taken out 10 be eaten.
The Andaman Islands furnish considerable
sport with guns as we'll as rods. snipe and wild
pigs being abundant at proper seasons.

a Novel Suggestion Advanced ny an Elk.
perienced Hunter and Trainer.
A novel theory of bird dog training Is ad-
vanced In Forest and Stream by an experienced
hunter and trainer, George Kennedy. He says:
we all know how few and far between
the good dogs nre, whether good. bad. or in
different trainers have had them In / hand. Not
one out OF o hundred Is so we'll trained that he
has sense Of his own. II may be possible that
we may be training our hunting dogs wrong.
Those dogs that / trained perfectly had no
sense of their own. and those that / half
trained had more sense. were better bird find
ers, but each OF them had some canine
idlosyncra ~ that brought him down below
the level of the desirable dog"
training deadens the dogs mind. IL becomes
automatic. and when a novel dilemma arises
