Powerful Owl.

The owl is noted for wisdom, as every one
knows, but a fowl of prey for big game
neer Of a Big Four train-by Big Four is
meant Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St.
Louis railroad-says that while near Green's
burg, Ind, he saw what appeared to be a
or horse about to cross the rails almost
directly In front Of the locomotive. Antici-
pating an accident, he put on all brakes just
as the engine struck the object. AS the jar
slight and no damage DONE he walked
out on the running or foot board, and discov-
cred what then looked like an eagle lying on
the cowcatcher. He picked up the object car
ried it to the cab OF his engine, but could not
1t was not an eagle. Afterward the passen-
gers of the train pronounced the bird to be
an owl, which measured nearly five feet from
tip to tip. Investigation proved that the owl.
at the time he was struck, was dragging along
the ground lamb that weighed many pounds.

BIRDS AND KITES.
Feathered Creatures Cannot Under
stand the Strange Flyers.

Feathered Creatures Cannot Under
stand the Strange Flyers.
Many amusing experiences have been
the lot Of the scientists who have been
manipulating kites for scientific pur-
poses, says the Chicago News. Large
birds are always interested In the
strange devices floating in the air, and
cannot quite make out what they are.
Prompted by sharp curiosity, they how
er around the floating kites and sub
Ject themselves to the danger of be-
coming entangled in the silken string
and being dragged down to earth.
NO bird, however, has ever alighted
on a kite or attacked one. While one
scientist was flying g. train Of five kites
couple of years ago a large silver
tipped eagle came suddenly out of thu
higher air and swooped round and
round the first kite, looking against
the sunset sky like a huge silver ball
AS the train Of kites was pulled in the
eagle followed, visiting one kite and
then another, seeming uncertain just
what to do. In few minutes, when
he seemed to have decided that they
were not good to eat, and he knew
nothing about them anyway, he in
dignantly flew off and was lost to view.
Another experience was had with a
stork that came from the New Jersey
side of the Hudson and flew straight
for the queer object in the air. He ap-
parent1y had made up his mind to go
straight through it, but changed and
dove underneath. He went around ana
above 1t, and through a glass it could
be seen that he cooked his eye at the
intruder in a most comical manner He
started away q few hundred feet,
changed his mind and came swooping
back. He finally reluctantly went
away, mystified over this queer addi-
ton to the inha bitants of the air.
While kites were high in the air ono
March f1ocks Of geese flying in the W
wedge flew over. They invariably
stopped, broke up, lowered above the
queer object, and, at last, slowly re-
formed and flew away. While the
larger birds all come from heights
above the kites, the small birds of the
air will alight on the string holding
the kite and sway to and fro

variably misled in diagnosing the first cases that appear, and the plague is epidemic in most places before 1t IS recognized as yellow fever. Mont gomery had about fifty cases, it is be- lieved, before the existence of the disease was announce last Monday by the board of health. Under the state quarantine law every town, city, hamlet and community stood quar- antined against Montgomery. The people here became panic stricken at once The trains from he had to pass through the state without stop ping, but as rapidly as they could be filed into stations they were loaded down with passengers The mad rush has continued almost up to this time.
 Selma, forty miles away, was stricken yesterday. A dozen cases were found, and today many of the white residents fled. The can't-get- aways in the stricken city have filled up every available farm house and negro cabin, and many well-to-do fam flies throughout the south are living in tents in the woods, quarantining themselves against the world
 The disease has within a month spread throughout the territory from New Orleans to Memphis, Tenn, and Montgomery. The following are among the stricken towns and cities in Alabama: Mobile, Flomanton, Selma, Wager, Wheelersville, Whist Ter, Mount Meighs and Notasulga. The death rate in the present epidemic is phenomenally small and the greatest 1 injury will therefore result from in-
 terruption to business. Frost is due 1 in this latitude in few weeks, and
 a heavy frost is death to the epidemic i The dead body of an unknown man
 apparently an Irish laborer, of middle
 age, was found by the roadside this
 afternoon about four miles from town The mans skin was yellow, and his
 eyes sunken. He was shabbily dra sseC
 and neglect had evidently contributed to his death. It is stated that a mar
 answering to his description called yesterday at farm house near the
 Ferry road and represented himself a:
 sick, saying he had chill. He wa: 1 told to move on. It is likely that ht
 was suffering effects of yellow fevel
 and fell by the roadside and died.

JERSEY oYsTERMEN AT WAR.
Members of the Tongers' Association
 Charged With Larceny.

Bridgeton, N. J., Oct 29.-The fight between the Oyster Tongers' associa- tion and the Oranoken Oyster com pany. which alleges control of Ora noken and Fishing creeks, is growing extremely bitter. Captains John and James CroweH had hearing this af ternoon on the charge of larceny of oysters by longing them in Fishing creek. There were three charges against them.
 They admit the longing, but con- tend that they have the right under recent state law. The bail amounts to $3,500 for each defendant This evening the Tongers' association held big mass meeting at Dividing creek to express their indignation at the ar.- rest of the Crowells.
