THE BIRD OF DEATH.

1t Is the Only Venomous sicmbcr OF
the Feathercd Tribe.
Among all the thousands of feathered
creatures classified by the trained or
nithologists but one the rpir ndoob,
or bird of DEATH" is known to be ven
omous. This queer and deadly species
of the winged and feathcrcd tribe is Il
native Of the island of papua, or New
Guinea. The bird is described as be-
ing about the size of common tame
pigeon, Of gray plumage and Il tail of
extraordinary length ending in tip
of brilliant scarlet red 1t is Il marsh
bird and is found to inhabit only the
immense stagnant pools adjoining the
lakes of the interior of the island. The
rpir has hooked beak as sharp as Il
cocks spur and hollow. The venom
With which it inoculates is distilled in
set of organs which nature has pro-
vided for that purpose and which lie in
the upper mandible just below the
openings of the nostrils. Under this
poison secreting laboratory in the roof
of the mouth is Il small tleshy knob.
When the bird sets its benk in the
flesh of victim this knob receives a
pressure which liherates the. venom
and inoculates the wound No man.
native or otherwise, was ever known
to recover from bite inflicted by d
rpir ndoob. The suffering in such
cases is said to be much more agoniz-
ing than in cases of rattlesnake and
Gila monster bites.
