DESCRIPTION OF
THE ENGLISH SKYLAPK

10 the Editor:
The English skylark Is not quite as
large as our meadow lark, is OF sober
brown color, lighter underneath the
body, with dark brown spots on the
breast, has a long slim beak, long feath.
ers on the top OF It's head which 1t
raises or depresses at WILL is very
quick in It's movements, IL not bird
OF plumber, but lives on the seeds Of
grasses and weeds, etc. II Is very
shy bird, and would have to be hard
pressed with hunger before II would
venture into a garden even IN winter.
II is to all intents and purposes q field
bird, has extremely long toe nails, es-
pecally on the hind toe, and cannot
balance on a perch In a cage or In a
tree These birds make their nests on
the ground having them pretty well
concealed under a bunch OF grass, gen.
orally, four brown eggs being about the
average number laid. The male bird Is
beautiful singer II springs up from
the grounds aud keeps rising gradually
and warbling without intermission I'M
I'll II goes up completely out OF sight.
II stays up about ten minutes, when It
gradually descends, but doesn't cease
singing until II nearly reaches the
ground. When a number OF these birds
are in the air singing at the same time
the effect is charming, the very air
seems to vibrate with their music. This
bird must not be COMPOUNDED with the
wood-lark or tit-lark The real Eng
lish sky-lark Is as harmless as our
little snow birds.

MYTON SAYS 1T is NOT so.
Former Indian Agent Denies Story Of
The Uncompahgres.

A dispatch yesterday stated that GER
tain Uncompahgre Indians had claimed
that absolutely barren lands had been
allotted to them, lands they had never
before seen and knew nothing about
until their attention was called to It.
Major II, y. Myton, formerly Indian
Agent at White Rocks, says this IS en-
tirely untrue; and that committee
including James Jeffres, not the pug-
list, but the collector OF customs az
Memphis, 10. II. Harper, clerk OF the
Colorado house OF representatives and
himself allotted the lands to the In
dlans, and only when the Indians them
selves were on the ground. Cedar posts
with descriptions OF the locations and
names Of the asslgnees were set up az
the location corners The only exoep-
ton was In few cases Of orphans
for whom a guardian was appointed.
The best lands along the Duchesne riv-
or were given the Indians, and they
have no just occasion for complaint.
