bered its individuals almost 1t would appear py
the million millions could ever disappear lro 'ne

The account of the great pigeon nocks which
is most familiar to the people OF the country Is
that written by John James AUDUBON the hatuiai-
ist 1t seems from Mr.. Wrights paper, however
that a century and half before Audubon was
born records were made Of the immense numbers
of the birds which seen in America Inc
earliest writer's called them turtle doves MT.
Wright quotes from the Jesuit father, LIE Jeune'
who In the year 1857 1ikened the American IndI-
ans to the pigeons. "Our savages are always saw
age; they resemble the migratory birds OF tneir
own country. In season turtle doves are some
times found in such abundance that the end or
their army cannot be seen when they are ny1ng
in body
Mr. Wright found another reference to the i'm
sense numbers of the pigeons in the writings OF
another Jesuit father in the year 1911 The Cd
seryation was made at Cayuga lake in New York
state. -Four leagues from here saw by the s1oe
of a river within very limited space eight or
nine extremely fine salt springs Many snares are
there for catching pigeons from seven 10 elsnt
hundred being often taken at once" Another ia
of the church in the latter part OF the seven
teenth century writes of the passenger pigeons OF
the St Lawrence country among the Dlros Oh
every variety to be found here 1T is to be noted
that pigeons abound in such numbers that this
year one killed 1872 at single shot"
Within the last five six years reports have
come Of the temperance OF the pigeon IN mis-
souri, Oklahoma Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan
Ohio. PENNSYLVANIA, New York and Virginia and
perhaps from other states In no instance
has proof been adduced that the real passenger
pigeon, the bird of the old time, was the species
: seen. The disappearance of the hocks which once
covered the sky with cloud is of the mys
teries of nature. Mans persecution of course had
much, if not everything, to do with the annihila
ton of the species, but it would seem that some
ting else, disease perhaps, must be held account
able at least in part for the dying out of noble
