After mystifying the geese guardian
of Central park for two weeks by tLei.
afstocratic exclusiveness, and having
their identity established by w. e. d.
Stokes, and their value placed by a
United States game warden in Alaska
Two little black Artic geese were re
moved from the big lake to the flying
cage yesterday. According to the
game warden they are worth $500, and
are very rare.
After their removal the common
Seese in the big lake seemed less re
strained. The Inhabitants of the fly.
ing cage, all feathered aristocrats,
were gratified by the fridity of the new
arrivals and seemed to attribute it to
their breeding in the upper ten de.
srees of latitude.
The geese guardian noticed the
strangers about month ago. They
seemed to consider themselves en-
titled TO especial consideration, al
ways took the best food, and when an.
other bird had choice bit would
swoop down on Its possessor and take
II away. The other birds never seem
ed to protest. There was considerable
speculation in the department about
the little strangers who had made
themselves rulers Of the lake.
About two weeks ago w. E. D
Stokes, manager of the Ansonia hotel
wrote saying he had liberated pail
of Attic geese in the big lake. and that
lie hoped they were thriving and thai
they would be taken good care of. A
few days later Secretary Willis Holly
of the park board, received a letter
from Robert H. Davis, editor of Nun
sey's Magazine. He said he had 6
communication on Arctic geese from
William Durham, United States game
warden of Alaska. The warden &C
cording to MIR. Davis, declared tina
Arctic geese were very scarce below
the Arctic circle and that a pair o
them ought to bring $500 or more.

A Double Surprise.

Some nights ago four burglars at
tempted to rob the store of R. w.
Rittenhouse at Sardis. Being awak.
ened by them and armed with shot.
gun he suddenly appeared as an un.
expected actor upon the scene. With
out waiting for the preliminaries of
an introduction he fired four volleys
at them which caused them to re-
tire more rapidly than they came, and
an exclamation from one Indicated
that the aim of their intruder had
proven effective. Upon examination
later, Mr.. Rittenhouse found a hat
left behind them punctured with
buckshot, and also a key with which
they tried to effect an entrance. He
still holds both articles in his pos.
session since they have not yet been
called for. and therefore up to the
present no satisfactory clue has been
obtained.
