The sea elephant is much larger than

The Captain Followed Flying Bird ana
Flew Before Fleet Apaches.
Capt. Bendire, a wellknown orni-
biologist, was riding along the banks
of Rillitto creek Arizona, when he saw
a big black hawk. He followed the fly
ing bird and at length came up with 1t
perched on dead limb of tall cot
ton wood tree. A bulky nest was in
the fork of the tree about forty feet
from the ground. The mate of the
hawk which the captain had been fol-
lowing was sitting on the nest Hoping
to secure a trophy, Capt. Bendire
climbed up to the nest, in which he
found single pale blue egg. The pa
rent birds circled around manifesting
their anger at the intrusion by shrill
screams, but the captain took the egg.
He put it in his mouth for safe keep
ing, as he required both hands in his
descent. Suddenly from his elevated
perch he caught sight of several Apa-
che Indians cYouched in a small can
yon about eighty rods distant. He was
awake to his danger in minute, but
he manifested no sign of alarm, and
descended to the ground in leisurely
manner. Had the Indians perceived
that they were discovered, they would
have been waiting for the egg-hunter
at the foot of the tree. AS it was, the
captain reached the ground, mounted
his horse, and started on a gallop for
the camp, five miles distant. In mo-
ment the Apaches broke cover and pur-
sued. They chased him nearly to the
camp, but he reached it in safety the
egg still in his mouth. 1t was unDro-
ken. Owing to its large size the cap
tain had difficulty in removing it from
his mouth without injuring it. His
