vULTURE AND RATTLEsNAKE.

When the international boundary
commissions resurveyed the territorial
lines between the United States and
Mexico the naturalists of the party
gathered a carload of natural history
specimens. DIR. Mearns, who, with his
assistants, collected nearly 10000 speci-
mems of birds and mammals, tells of a
fight in the air between a California
vulture and a rattlesnake, which he
saw while exploring the Cocopah noun
tains of Lower California.
1t was in the early morning. The
big bird had seized the snake behind
the head and was struggling upward
with it's writhing, deadly burden. The
snakes captor appeared aware that it's
victim was dangerous. The burden
was heavy, as the reptile was nearly
five feet long.
The. grip of the bird on the snakes
body was not of the best. The snake
seemed to be squirming from its cap
tors talons, at least sufficiently to en-
able it to strike. It's triangular head
was seen to recoil and dart at the mass
of'feathers.
1t did this once or twice, and then
with a shrek the vulture dropped its
prey. The bird was probably 500 feet
or so above observers. The astonished
men were then treated to a spectacle
seldom seen. Few birds but vulture
could accomplish such feat.
The instant the snake escaped from
the birds clutches it dropped earth
ward like a shot. And like a shot the
| bird dropped after it, catching it in
midair with a grip that caused death
At any rate, the snake ceased to wrig-
gle. and the vulture scared away to g
mountain peak to devour its hard-earn-
! ed meal.
That the snake did not bite the vul
ture and cause its death can only b.
explained by the fact that the thicl
feathers probably protected the flesl
from the reptiles fangs.-Youth's Com
panion.

Two new plantation Kindergartens

Ter BY this young lady. Cuts and small
wounds, bruises. etc. are carefully and
deity cured by simple remedies. The
children are taken by the teachers In
charge for monthly outings. Sometimes
trips are made 90 Waikiki and bathing
INDUCED In. or else To 'the valley or
mountains. These little excursions have
been found n great source OF pleasure
and instruction 20 the children and
have humanlzed the rougher natures

Berger's band at Thomas Square. The
children are fond of singing and their
favorite is Pounding Poi"

Honolulu Produces Its Share-This
Comes From Kawaiahao.
What makes anything a fact? Isn't
it an occurrence of statement that can
be proven true and correct in every
particular? What constitutes conclu-
sive evidence to the mind of a Homo
lulu citizen? Is it the statement of
some one made in Texas or California?
We think not, but when some OF our
own people make statement and it is
Endorsed by many, there can be no
question about that. Under these cir
cumstances we call them facts, and
they are everyday facts, because they
are occurring every day. Don't take
our word for what Is said. If you are
not satisfied, ask them; people don't
make such assertions without good
reasons.
