ssTha Turtlen

"The Turtle" a farcical comedy, which has proved one of the distinct sensat tions of the New York season, will be seen on to- morrow afternoon and evening at OBrien's s opera house by what gives every indication of proving one of the largest audiences of the season. La Tortue,' as the French version by Leon Gandillot was called, ere ated great furore in Paris some few years ago. and subsequently, all Berlin flocked to see it. The work of it's adaptation for the American stage has been accomplished with skill and deftness by Joseph w. Herbert, who has preserved all he piquancy and frankness of expression, and drollery of complication of the original play. "The Fur tie'' is unique and airy. It introduces many players of personal distinction, who go to make up strong comedy organization. The cast selected includes Alice Sylvia Lynden. Frances Knapp. Maude Otis, Ada Zell ada Morton John Terriss William McCreedy, J. E.. McGregor, Harry Gibbs, Clement St. Martin. Indications are that 'The Turtle will unquestionably prove one of the most successful and profitable of any attraction seen here in years.

WAR MATERIAL FOR THE BRITISH
Protest by BOer Representative
Against Shipments from New York.

NEW YORK, December 16-The ship
ment OF arms and ammunition from this
city TO South Africa, for use by the Bril-
fish forces against the Beers, last Tues
day, caused Consul Charles Pierce, of the
Orange Free State. TO file a protest with
Secretary of-State Hay in Washington.
To-day Mr.. Pierce received note from
Mr.. Hay. declaring that the Department
of State could not take any action In the
premises.
According to the authorities cited by
the Secretary OF State, in case of war
belligerents have the right TO purchase
any kind OF goods in neutral country,
subject TO coniiscation after shipment. AS
the Beers have no navy and no port OF
entry, the ruling is decidedly advantage
Gus to the British.

HOW BIRDS TALK.
Expert says Their Language Il SUI
perior to That Of Monkeys.
CThe Pathnuder)

CThe Pathiuder)
Much interest has ben taken in the
scientific world OF late about the langu-
ages OF various animals. and as orr
readers know. "a museum for ttiI study
has been established al the University
Of PENNSYLVANIA. The popular notion has
been That The monkeys would be found
TO possess the most highly developed
language, rs they are high I'm the scale
Of evolution. But now comes some testi-
mony in favor OF bird language. Profess
sOr Nelson r. Wood, the taXidermist. Of
the National Museum here at Washing
ton, has been studying bird sounds for
years. Last week he talked with a
Washington correspondent. giving the
gist Of his conclusions most entertaingly
and instructivsly, as follows:
Il don't want TO be understood as say
ing that It is Of high order Of develop
ment" said Professor Wood. because
long study of the subject has DEVELOPED
the fact that the language Of birds, while
Sufficient for their somewhat limited
needs. is necessarily crude. And yet | do
not hesitate 20 say that bird language
is far ahead OF anything thus far deyel-
oped or likely to come Of the investiga-
tons into the talk Of monkeys.
"As / said recently before the Ameri-
can OrntnOlOslslS Union, the langu2 20
OF birds l. now well enough defined by
careful study to classify it as such. II is
impossible 10 demonstrate in print prac-
tically how for progress has been made
in the development of bird language. be-
cause II is only by correctly initiating
the various sounds of bird notes express
different feelings, that we can demon
strate the wonderful gifts they have.
IAN interesting phase OF the study OF
bird language Is the discovery that It Is
not the most highly developed birds that
have the greatest variety OF sounds ex-
pressing different things. and therefore
the largest vocabulary. On the contary.
the common field crow has a vocabulary
more expressive and of a wider range
than many Of the finest song birds. In
all the comparisons. however, I except
the parrot. which regard as more Of a
human than bird.
'The bird language has notes indlcat-
ing all the emOtions-envy. love. jealousy,
contentment. alarm, pain. pleasure. 1t Is
sufficiently comprehensive for the needs
OF The different families. and that II Is
thoroughly understood even by the young
birds at an early age Is demonstrated to
