STRANGE BIRD CAUGHT.
Alabama River Captain Finds a Unique
 Feathered Specimen.

Selma, December 11.-(Special.) )-Last night about sixty miles below Selma aboard the Alabama river packet, The Ouachita, was captured a queer species of the feathered tribe. The bird, or duck, or whatever it is, flew against the elec- tric search light and. stunned by the col lision. fell to the deck where 1t was caught.
 When restored to life 1t began to snap at those who held it like an alligator or a rabid dog. It has the body of duck and has web feet but it's appearance re- sembles hen, a peacock and a pouldoo. The bill is about two and a half inches long and within are sharpe teeth that would almost sever a finger.
 Captain King of the Ouachita brought the bird to Selma and gave it to Clerk of the City Court J. B. Evans, who prizes it very highly.

 Hidden under the debris of the cracked safe on Wednesday was found the two proofs of photographs. One was that of a man alone and the other contained the faces of two men.
 These proofs were taken to Mobile by Police Captain Taylor, and they proved beyond doubt to be the photos of the burglars. It is supposed that while rum maging in their bags for the drills and other tools these pictures had been &C., cidentally dropepd and were left undis- covered.
