DAYS RUN OF THE AUTO.

Albany-160 road miles-was former

breaking about even at Poughkeepsie.
it is no uncommon thing any more to
make the trip from New York 70 Sar-

ample leisure to start, and for noon

the entire run from Boston to the

pecially benefit the student rather
than the mere gightseer.
The collection of stuffed birds and
winged animals is perhaps the most
complete in the country. Dozens OF
varieties of hawks and buzzards may
be seen, and many a visitor has tsere
for the first time learned the real diff
erence between these seemingly no
mogeneous birds of prey. There are
owls of all kinds, from those thai
steal the farmers chickens at night
down to the noisy, little screetching
variety. In large glass enclosure
is represented a sheep eating parrot
with its beak injected into the back
of a sheep in the act OF killing the
latter. Different species of large
eagles, California vultures, tame and
wild turkeys, and peacocks with tails
of gorgeous feathers over six feet
long, all form attractions of interest.
The collection of mollusks is also
complete. This includes many large
shells such as those of pure pearl and
the nautilus. The wonders from the
bottoms of the seas, however, are
most beautifully represented by the
many species of coral some fan-shap-
ed and some of whic.. resemble small
trees, all in variety of colors. Sus-
pended from the ceiling of the room
in which the products of the ocean
may be seen is an exact artificial i'm
itation of a squid or cuttle-fish, which,
with its long tenacles protruding
from its head, is nearly 40 feet in
length. OF similar construction
