CONTEST FOR A CHILD.
Divorced Woman ForestalIs Courts
Action by Leaving Town.

In Thursday mornings Post-Tntelli-
gencer there appeared notice OF the mar
riage OF Charles E. Sheffield 10 Miss
Emma L. Mckenzie. the ceremony hag-
Ing been performed by Rev. William W
Mallory, pastor OF the Peoples church.
On Saturday there was fled in the superior
court a series OF affidavits, in support OF
the application OF Andrew ID. Mckenzie,
the former husband of the newly-made
wife, for the custody OF his infant child
on the ground that the woman was not
a proper person to have the care OF any
child.
The Mckenzles were divorced on Sep
TENDER 20, and the court in entering the
decree awarded the custody OF the little
boy. the only issue of the marriage, 10 the
wife. and II il this part OF the decree
which the former husband now seeks 10
revoke. and his application therefor IS
based largely on the relations which, Il Is
ALLEGED. existed between Mrs. Mckenzie
and the young man whose name she has
just taken.
One popularity of the case is that Mrs.
McKenZie's own mother, Mrs. Kate Crotty,
takes the former husbands part in his
application for the custody of the child.
and makes affidavit that her daughters
conduct with Sheffield has been most
shameful. The affidavit was evidently
made before Mrs. Crotty learned OF the
second marriage of her daughter. for in
II she says that she learned that her
daughter and Sheffield were about 10
marry and leave the country. taking the
child beyond the jurisdiction OF the court.
There was at first some question as TO
whether a marriage had actually taken
place. but Mr.. Mallory says that he ala

where the parties are at present Shef
held admitted that he could not success
fully defend the charges which had been
made against him in connection with the
woman. The affair. and the previous con-
duet OF the couple, has created quite a
scandal in the circle IN which the Shelf

THE RARESr OWL.
A Specimen for University Museum

specimen OF the rarsst owl in America
was obtained by Henry II. HiR6shaw, cur
ator or the University Of Washsnstou's na0-
scum, on his recent natural history expe-
dition 10 Eastern Washington The tirst
and only other specimen OF this owl was
taken in Idaho in 1883 Ii was seat 20 Dr.
c. Hart Merriam. OF the United States
department Of agriculture. who pro-
rounced II distinct geographical variety
OF Aegaseous iammeola- He thereupon
described il as variety new 10 science.
and called II AsgaScopS hanmeoaa ida
hosusiS. This only specimen OF the new
variety is male. On May = Mr. Hind
shaw saw n strange little owl on Snake
river about twenty-five miles from It's
mouth. and after great difficulty secured
IL. Now il appears that il is female OF
this rarest OF American owls. Its common
name is the Idaho dwarf screech owl. Me-
gascops fiammeola, the type Of this owl. is
a Mexican species. and is found only oeca-
sionally in Colorado and New Mexico. This
little owl is one OF the finest specimens OBJ
tanned by the University of Washington
collectors in years.
Another most interesting member OF the
owl family was recently taken on the uni
versity grounds. Early in June Mr.. Hind
shaw obtained fire pair of Megascops
asio kenRicottii or hennicottS Screech owl.
This owl was never before taken outside
and Ii is interesting for the history il sug-

bia by Bob Kennicott, who was in charge
of the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany's expedition TO extend llae of sele-
graph 70 Europe by way of Alaska. the
Aieutian islands and Siberia. about 1851.
There are a number of other owls in the
state Of WASHINGTON. all of which are use
fui, as they feed on rats. mice. ground
squirrels and insects. About the only one
that bothers the farmer is the Bubo vir-
ginianus pscIficas. or the Pacific great
horned owl. This differs from the eastern
type of the species in being much darker.
The Glaucidium gnoma. or Pacific pigmy
owl. is not rare, but il Is hard 10 take. 1t
is peculiar In not being particular whether
IL goes for food by day or night.
Nyctea scandiaea. the snowy owl, Is
found here part OF the year. 1t nests in
the far north.
Asio wilsonianus, the American long
cared owl. and Asio socipitriaus the short
cared owl. are both found IN Eastern
Washington.
The saw-whet owl. or Nyotala acadIca.
is reported to be found in Western Wash
ington.
