HAWKS CAPTURED AT SCI
Fine Specimens Taken Prisoners Far
From Any Land.


A very peculiar incident occurred
recently while the new Japanese
steamer America Maru was en- route
from the port of Yokohama to San
Francisco. When the steamer was
1000 miles from land she was visited
by a large hawk. The hawk was
clutching in its talons half-devoured
bird. When first discovered the hawk
was alighting on the foremast, as
though very weary from it's long sea-
ward flight. The second mate of the
Maru climbed up into the rigging and
was finally fortunate enough to secure
the handsome hawk.
Three times he approached the bird,
only to see it leave it's perch and
soar away, still fiercely c1utching the
half-eaten prey. Each time, however.
the hawk returned to it's perch. Be
fore being captured the hawk gave
battle to the plucky japanese, using
its sharp beak and talons to good ad-
vantage in warding off the hands of
the mate, but the latter chung to the
rigging until the bird was captured.
The hawk now occupies a place in
the crews quarters on the America
Maru. On account of it's brilliant
plumage and general dignified bearing
the bird is highly valued.
On the same voyage a smaller hawk
of different breed took refuge in the
rigging during a heavy gale as the
steamer was crossing the China sea-
That was fully 500 miles off shore
This hawk was also captured and be-
came a pet among the Japanese sail
OrS.
What these birds were doing so far
from land and how they managed to
sustain so long flights are mysteries
of the deep.
Regarding wild game animals, a
great many queer things might be re-
lated. One particular instance the
writer recalls:
An old hunter and trapper once said
he shot a buck, probably three years
old, away up in the wild Bitter Root
mountains. AS he was very fond of
boiled heart, he cooked that organ
Judge of his surprise on cutting the
heart open preparatory to eating it
to find a goodrsized buckshot lodged
down near the point. He had shot
and killed the deer with a S2-caliber
rife and had shot only once.

United States Senator George l..
Turner of Washington lost his fortune
and poverty stared him in the face.
Turner was a lawyer, and one day a
party of miners, well known to him,
who had struck a lode up in British
America, near Victoria, came into his
Office and asked him to make out some
papers for them.
: 1--WE can't pay you cash for your
services, Mr.. Turner said one of the
party, after their business had been
transacted, but we will give you some
stock and call it square,"
At first Turner refused to take the
stock, as his clients were all friends
of his and he preferred to do the work
for nothing, but ON being pressed ne
took the certificates and tucked them
away in his safe.
Two years later Senator Turner was
a millionaire through these. mining
shares, and the mine that brought him
the money and made the fortune of his
friends is the famous lie Roi, one of
the richest in the West.

pived Into Gold Mine.

Two tourists camped on the ridge
of mountain lake near Como, a min
ing town in Colorado. While in want
OF something to pass the time, one
suggested that the other should dive
into the lake and try to discover the
bottom. His friend stripped and dived
in. He came up half a minute later,
saying that he had, found the bottom
with his head
After he put on his clothes he began
to rub his head with his handker-
chief.
Look at the sand" he said, laugh
ing, but his friend, who had been a
gold miner, sprang up with a cry of
surprise.
George he shouted, tits goId''
And gold it was. The man who had
dived into the lake had struck a placer
gold mine of the richest kind To-day
the little lake near Como is the finest
placer mine in the whole West, and
perhaps the most remarkably discov-
erd one on record.
