DUET SINGING PARROTS.
They Garry the Air with EAse In Good
limo and Very Distinctly.


Time and Very Distinctly
An Italian of the name Of Rassoni,
who lives in Savannah, has two parrots
who sing in duet all the popular songs
OF the day.
Rassoni raised the birds and began
early to teach them to speak III Italian
and English. No thought was ever
given to their musical education until
they began later to develop some ability
TO sing. Then Rassoni, being a musician
of local note, began to teach them short
and simple songs They were apt and
learned rapidly. In addition they caught
the popular airs that were sung and
whistled by street gamins, who never
passed the house without stopping and
singing to the parrots
It was not long before the two birds
could carry an air with perfect ease, in
time and with distincmess Finally
both began to sing together, and now
they sing in duet with the fines5e II
artists. The birds are male and female
Henry and Polly. Henry has voice
between mezzo soprano and alto,
while Polly's is q we'll modulated so
prano of pretty high range. Both are
stronger than one would imagine and
possess volume and sweetness. With all
their accomplishments, however, Henry
and Polly are like all parrots--they
will never sing or talk when you are
most anxious to hear them; You must
await their pleasure and convenience.
But for this perversion of their nature
Rassoni would have already made a fol
tune with them.
The writer sat in the lobby Of the
Pulaski House i'll Savannah and heard
the parrots sing the famous piece, "Say
Au Revoir, but Not Good0y." Others
heard. All endeaVored to locate the
music. Finally one asked the hotel clerk
who were the singers He replied they
were parrots and pointed toward the
closed glass door Of Uhle's cigar store
adjoining the lobby. All gathered about
the door in wonderment, but the birds
stopped singing. We left the door and
they resumed the same piece and sang
it through beautifully ana in perfect
time and accord. Polly took the high
notes with remarkable ease. Then the =
sang "Suwanee River" aud popular
ditties of the day. No one was i'll the
store at the time, aid Henry and Polly
gave concert that was as remarkablo
as it was unique and enjoyable,
Between tle songs they would talk
in Italian or English.
