AFeathered Wonder.

Possibly the rarest Of all feathered
creatures Is the "takahe" bird of New
Zealand. Science names it Notornis
Mantelli. The first one ever seen by
white eyes was caught in 1s49. A Sec

the first, 1t was tracked over snow and
caught with dogs. fighting stoutly and
uttering piercing screams Of rage un.

that 1t was not seen again until 1879.

fourth. which was captured last fall
n the f1ords Of Lake TIE Anau. in New
Zealand, has been offered to the gov
eminent there for the tidy sum Of
1880.
Thus It appears that the bird is pre-

Germans Are skeptIca,.

Friday. at Baden Baden. and the min
lister of foreign affairs varon Won Bue-
low. is enjoying fortnight's vacation
in Holstein.
A well informed individual says the
government is skeptical as to Admiral
Kautz' instructions. He adds that the
instructions for a bombardment were
based on the British and American
claims that Mataafa was contravening
the Samoan act. But, the correspond
ent's informant points out, the contra
vention was not specified, and the gov
eminent presumes that II the act was
really infringed. Herr Rose, the Ger
man consul, would also have protested.
as his government had instructed him
to strictly conform to the act.
The assertion that Herr Rose protest.
ed against the deposition of the pro.
visional government is doubted here,
as. it is claimed, Herr Rose was in.
structed not to identify himself with
Mataafa more closely than the repre-.
sentatives Of the other powers.
