HOW PARROTS ARE CAPTURED

The New Zealand kakapo, or large
parrot, with all it's credit for brains,
allows itself to be caught in very
simple manner.
In the dusk of the early dawn the
Maoris, carrying tame kakapos tied to
long sticks, set off to hunt. These are
the call-birds which are used to attract
by their screams the large flockS of
kakapos flying overhead.
While one Maori tethers the call
birds by the leg and sets them scream
ing to the full extent of their lusty
lungs another cuts as many perches
as there are men in the hunting party
from the neighboring bush. By means
of flax bands these are lashed firmly
to different parts of little nut or
"whare" Qn which the hunters secrete
themselves), so as to act as perches for
the unsuspeCting birds.
Each perch is so fixed that it can be
drawn down into the "whare' through
the roof On the perches are placed
running nooses of flax, and when all is
prepared, each Maori sits quietly with
in the "whare" with his fax cord in
his hand ready to pull at the right
moment.
The call-birds are then disturbed by
means of a long stick, and presently
large flock of parrots, hearing their
cries, wheel down and settle with
great chattering in the adjacent trees.
one by one they fly and settle on the
perches of the "whare" to hold con-
verse with the call-birds, and when
every perch is occupied a Maori gives
the signal and the nooses are pulled.
The hubbub of screaming and scold-
ing as each perch with its captured par,
rot is drawn down into the "whare'
can be best imagined. 1t is only
equaled by the frantic excitement of
the Maoris as they haul in their cap
tures.-EXChange.

5000 MILES TO COOK A DINNER

George w. Harvey, the inventor of
steamed oysters, and a famous res
taurant keeper, who died at Washing
ton recently was once the hero of an
incident that in some respects made
the exploits of Lucullus and other noted
gourmets of ancient Rome look cheap
and commonplace. He made a 6000-
mile journey to cook or supervise the
cooking of single course of dinner.
A wealthy Englishman, noted for his
love of good living, while on a visit to
Washington, was given dinner at
Harvey's, at which terrapin formed the
piece de resistance 1t was the first
time the Englishman had encountered
the famous Maryland delicacy, and II
made an instantaneous and profound
hit with him. He decided that he
would introduce the dish to his London
friends, and at once entered into ne
gotiations with Harvey to come to
London and do the cooking.
Harvey named his price, and 1t was
accepted without a murmur, although
it was a stiff one, as he was very
portly man and did not like to travel.
At the appointed time he engaged his
passage for England, took a sufficient
number of live terrapin along with
him, and sailed for London. He su-
pervised the preparation of the turtles
in the kitchen of his generous employ
er, saw that they were cooked and
served properly, collected his G200
honorarum and his expenses. and took
the next steamer back to New York
Exchange.

NOT TO BE TRAPPED

"Concede nothing" was the advice of
well known politician concerning a
certain famous disputed election. His
policy was followed to the letter by the
man of whom the Chicago Tribune
tells. On the relief train that had been
rushed to the scene of the railway
wreck was newspaper reporter
The first victim he saw was q man
whose eyes were blackened and whose
left arm was in a sling. With his hair
full of dirt, one end of his shirt collar
flying loose and his coat ripped up the
back, the victim was sitting on the
grass and serenely contemplated the
landscape
How many people are hurt? ?" asked
the reporter, hurrying up to him.
II haven't heard of anybody being
hurt, young man." said the other.
"How did this wreck happen?"
