P4Rk BIRD TISITORS.
1tractfd by CaptiVes-Somc Seek
to Get IN Cages.
BY G William Beebe, Curator of OrHithology,
New-York Geological Society.

The Geological Park not only affords Good OPP
portunities for studying the habits Of rare and
curious foreign birds. but. considering its small
area such a place is almost unequaIled for
watching our wild native birds at close range.
The sight of so many birds in close proximity
to mankind, flying unharmed in the fyinS
cages or walking about their ranges and swim
ming on the various ponds is fraught with sig
nificance to the quick perceptions OF wild birds,
large and small. Their keen intuitiOns and
perior powers of intelligence tell them that such
unwonted altruistic conditions cannot fail to
offer advantages.
The almost immediate recognition of their
security in the park is remarkable, ANA birds
which seldom show themselves within sight of
civilization have come again and again. and ex-
hibted a tameness which leads many persons TO
think them escaped birds.
visit of Canada geese has occurred only
once but grebes are more regular visitors, and
at each migration more species of these
featnered vanishing points swimming
on the ponds You see a small bird with pointed
beak. and, attempting to take closer look,
you suddenly perceive-no bird at all. 1t has
not dived flown away, but just apparently
been absorbed by the water 1t is wonderful
trick-so imperceptibly submergng itself that
not a ripple marks the place-and far away,
perhaps near the shore, where it blends well
emerges as quietly as it disappeared.
A storm dashed queer little sea bird
against the boundary fence of the park and
stunned it for a while, but t soon recovered
and lived and dived happily in the pool of the
birdhouse. This little stranger was a B:unnichs
murre. one of those birds which live such
strange lives, spending the winter, as nearly
as we know, the high seas. and in summer
going far north to lay their one egg on the bare
rock of some solitary cliff
Wild seaguIs Will often drop from their loose
flocks passing overhead and consort with their
wing clipped kindred When they go away the
young gulls which have been hatched in the
park usually accompany them, but return in a
few hours to their home and flock.
At least four species of wild ducks frequent
the ponds in the park, attracted, probably, by
those of their kind in the observation-disclosures,
mallards redheads and wood ducks Three red
head ducks made the ponds their home one en-
tire fall, and as many sixteen wild wood
ducks have been seen at once associatinS with
those which breed in the park each year. a
number of these wild wood ducks trapped
every fall, so the focks of this species in the
collection are of the finest.
Among the wading birds which are found
every year in the park are little green, great
blue and black crowned night herons. The first
mentioned creep like shadowy phantoms among
the branches of the trees and bushes the
waters edge while the other two species are
holder aIighting on the flying cage itself and
peering down at their brethren within The
night herons, Of which FIVE six almost

but as soon as the weather grows colder they

On coming out of their trance they are appar-

Was Not Persuaded Out
Ofit
He JuStifieS Not Calling a
Special Session

Ed Journal: Assuming that you
want to be fair, desire to notice a
remark or two which your paper has
made within the past week Only a
few days since you said that l ia.
vored the enactment Of a fat salary
law until was called into the Ore
gonian office and shown that such a
law would be unconstitutional" or
words to that effect.
The truth is, never discussed that
question with any one connected with
the oregonian' at any time, and, more
over, ! believe such a law perfectly
constitutional, and urged its enact
ment in my last message to the iegis.
lature, The question is, why this
perversion of the fact?
In your issue of today you assert
that "a fiat salary law, a corporation
tax law, the Lewis and Clark appro-
priation and Direct Legislation enact
ment were a special program endorsed
by me until persuaded out Of It by the
Oregonian."
Here is some news again The
truth is, was never persuaded out
of IT, by anyone. On the contrary, l
specially urged the passage OF these
by the legislature as strong
ly as l knew how, a fact of which ev-
is aware.
In the article referred to as well as
on some former occasions. you say
that | was in favor of a special ses-
sion OF the Legislature until persuad-
ed out of 1t by the Oregonian." The
fact is here that when the subject of
a special session was first mentioned,
and when | looked upon the sugges-
ion with some favor the Oregonian
vas openly hostile 10 It, and when
inally decided that II was unnecessary
ind certainly uncalled for, the Ore
sonian was decidedly leaning in its
avor. All Portland at that time want

In short, since the legislature failed
o enact some Of these measures, why
lot blame the legislature for a non
of duty? Or has IL be
ome such fixed habit in some quar-
ers 20 blame me with everything un.
Ter the sun that displeases or disap-
'oints, that ! am to be perpetually

ious atonement?
The fiat salary law failed largely be

lace and declared that anything
hove the stated salaries in the
institutional was unconstitutional.
Ie was supported by Senator Rand
nd others. Would these gentlemen
ave considered the proposition as

ide the question in November?
What difference would a special ses-
ion make in the consideration OF con
questions by constitutional
lwyers?
The Direct Nomination law failed
ecause politicians controlled both

rinciple Of the measure. The failure
( the bin could have been safely pre-
