Philippine Island Eagles.

The insurrection in the Philippine
islands, now followed by the attack on
Manila by the United States fleet, has
brought to a close very interesting
set of ofevpeditions to explore the animal
life of this very little known archipel-
ago. These were conducted by Mr.
John Whitehead, and among the re-
suits of his labors was the discovery
in 1896 of the largest eagle in the
world. 1t was shot on the island of
Samar, one of the Philippines, where it
lives above the level of the enormous
forest, consisting of trees so yards
high, and feeds on monkeys. 1t is
larger than the golden eagle, more
powerful than the harpy eagle, and has
beak higher, deeper and more for
mida BILE than that of any other rap
torial bird. 1t weighs from 16 to 20
pounds, while the average weight of a
golden eagle is only - pounds. The
only full-growns specimen of the great
forest eagle obtained there is in the
museum of natural history at South
Kensington. 1t was disabled by sin
gle buckshot in the neck and ultimate
ly taken down from the tree to which
ii clung by native hunter. Its claws
are AS formidab BILE as its beak, and re-

FODDER IN The TREE TOPS.
Cattle in the Hawaiian Islands
Should Learn to Climb-The
CarOb Tree.

A COW cannot climb tree-undoubt-
ed fact in natural history. Yet if en-
vironment can effect what some be-
lieve it can, few generations of cattle
in Hawaii are likely to evolve race of
scansorial kline, for the common fod-
der for cows and horses grows on
trees.
There are only two directions in the
islands of the Pacific, and everybody
uses the terms windward and leeward
as glibly as if bred aboard ship to use
sailors English. In Hawaii these di-
rections and distinctly marked. On
the windward side of every island, trop-
ical rains, growth of green things to
Jungle Insurance; on the leeward side,
drought rarely broken, scanty grasses
precariously existing in sun-baked
soil, for most months of most years
sere and brown. But as not everyone
can live to the windward, and it seems
a pity to let SO much leeward go to
waste which might otherwise be good,
the algarroba tree has been introduced
from the African aridities and has
made cattle ranching successful pos
sibility on the cry lands.
Priests of the French mission were
the introducers, they having become
acquainted with its value in Algeria.
AS its name shows, it is the Carob tree
of the Arabian Nights" the source OF
most peoples knowledge of things
Arabic. The tree grows most luNuri-
antly in most Hawaiian soils, and bears
continuously the year around. This is
a matter of particular Importance, for
it is the fruit which is of value. The
tree grows to the height attained by
large naples, aud branches luxuriant-
ly SO as to shade considerable area,
and, as the leaves are both abundant
and large, there is formed a protection
against the heat which stock appreci-
ate. The fruit is large, tieshy pod
filed with beans the size of horse
chestnut. 1t is upon the pous ana
the beans that cattle feed. The fodder
is so satisfying that for long periods
cattle are fed on nothing else and
reach market N prime condition.-N.

SONS OF VETERANS.
Important Matters to Be Discussed at
Omaha

Omaha, Sept 12.-The 18th annual
encampment of the Sons of Veterans
was called to order in this city by
Senior Vice Commander George e.
Cogshall of Grand Rapids, Mich. in
the absence of Commander-in-ch chief
Charles K. Darling of Boston, who is
in Porto Rico in command of the Sixth
Massachusetts volunteers. About $50
delegates responded TO the roll call.
The morning session was confined ex-
clusively TO routine business, but there
are many important matters coming
up and it is freely predicted that the
encampment will be one Of the most
interesting in the history of the order
There will be a fight over the election
of commander-in-chief, for which Of
flee there are three prominent candi-
dates, W. S. Oberdorf of New York,
Colonel Shepard of Illinois and Lieu
tenant Governor Jones of Ohio. There
are three cities after the next encamp-
ment, Denver, San Francisco and BOs-
ton, with odds at present in favor of
the western city. The Ladies Aid So
ciety will commence it's session with
some rs delegates in attendance.
At the afternoon session of the en-
campment of the Sons of Veterans. all
additional routine committees were ap-
pointed and the annual reports of the
officers were read. The main report
was one by Adjutant General Bolton,
who reviewed the work of the last
year. in the absence of Commander in
Chief Darling. In this, as we'll as in
the other reports, considerable stress
was laid upon the fact that more men,
bers of the order enlisted in the war
against Spain than from any other or
ganization. Particular mention was
made of Company L, Thirty-third
Michigan, which fought in the battle of
Siboney and lost many men. Another
state which furnished Sons of Veterans
was Minnesota
Recommendation was made that spe-
ciaI services should be held in commem-
Oration of the members who have fall
en- in battle. A net gain of 500 mem
bers has been made during the past
year. the total membership being at
present S2,341 distributed among LIS
A surplus of over $1,100 has

through the hours of confiagration
they were calm as death. Today they
are just the same.
During the fire all was quiet No
panic was seen or heard in the crowds
OF burned-out and destitute people.
They only seemed intent on saving
what they had been able to secure
from their destroyed homes, and
watched with a kind of inquisitive face
the terrible havoc made by their un-
relenting foe, and quietly wondered
when the confiagration would burn it
self out.
As usual at fire, a number of rob-
berries took place, and more than one
store was pillaged.
The chief of police, when asked if
there had been any arrests on account
OF the looting, answered in the mega
tive. He said it was impossible to
watch everybody. but he could see
there had been little or no thieving.
His theory of the origin of the fire is
that spark from one of the steamers
must have ignited hay on Brakeman
