c1aANA FOUR FOOTED BIRD.

GUIANA HOOf fOOIEO BlftD.
 Edward Morris Brigham, of Battle Creek. Mich, the well known South American traveller, has the only speci- mems in this country of rare bird that has attracted much attention among scientific men because 1t has four feet,
 Its scientific name is Opisthocoma cristat, and is known to the natives as the cigana (gypsy).
 It is so contrary to accepted order of things that bird should have four feet that the discovery of this quadrup- ed bird was 8 surprise to the scientific men. MT. Brighams specimens are pre- served in alcohol.
 MT. Brigham found these birds in 1SS1-'S2 while making embryological studies in the interior of the great is- land of Marajo, at the mouth of the mouth of the Amazon River.
 The bird confirms the evolutionary thory that birds descended from reptil- ian ancestors. Many fossil birds show marked reptilian characteristics. hav ing teeth, etc The whole evolutionary process is shown in the matching of the egg of the cigana.
 The bird, progressing in its embryo logical course, passes into it's reptilian ancestral type, and before it's evolution has carried it beyond the reptilan phase it emerges from the egg as a quadruped animal, matched from an egg Had by a two-footed, two winged bird. There are well developed toes, each terminated by large, well devel- oped claws.
 For many days after matching and before it is able to fly the young uses these four claws to climb about the bushes and trees. But fore" feet are purposeless for an ordinary bird. Then the modification begins and the fore limhs are developed into wings-the final natal result.
 The adult specimen, in size and gen. eral appearance, resembles a pheasant, but of courst, is no relation, as the si- gana is the sole survivor of it's genus, it's family, it's order, of which geologists have found numerous representatives in fossol state.
 It's geological range is quite limited, being found only along the margins of the Amazon and the Orinoco. The bird lives and perchaes upon the leaves of the aninga, large water plant with heart shaped leaves and ealla-like flower, varying in height to twenty feet. The plant grows in masses on low, muddy margins of water courses. The cries uttered by the adult ciganas are unlike those of any other birds and are so doleful and demoniacal that it sounds as if they were mourning for all their extinct relations, These birds are usually the most demonstrative in the night.-Detroit Free Press.

HONOLULU. Aug. 20.-The possibility
