which is about the size of red -wnged black
bird the swamp blackbird known to every coun
try boy. The shrike preys on smaller birds, or
mice and on big insects which it empates or
thorns after making meal, in the case Of birds
and mice, of the brains of the quarry The
shrike Is dressed In soft grays and while rather
a handsome bird it Is by no means Of brilliant
attire.
The African shrikes which DR.. Mearns col
lected and In which Theodore Roosevelt showed
marked interest on the day In which he went
through the museum, are perhaps among the
most brilliant colored birds of the world. They
not unlike the American scarlet tanager only
the scarlet is Of the kind that seems to burn the
sight. Colonel Roosevelt has been having lit
tie controversy with Scientist Abbott H. Thayer
over the question of the protective celebration Of
birds and mammals. Mr.. Thayer, in general
way, thinks that most animals have colora-
ton which protects them In measure from
discovery 1t is known that this is perfectly true
Of some kinds Of wild creatures, but Mr.. Thayer
thinks that even brilliantly plumaged birds
protected. Colonel Roosevelt on the day Of his
visit to the museum held up one of the shrikes
in It's scarlet attire and said Ironically There's
a fine example of protective coloration" Look
ing at the bird one might readily believe that
against a background of green leaves it would
be the first object in the landscape to attract
attention
There are storks In the African collection |
think that three species were included In the
captures. Now 1t must be understood that when
the expedition went into Africa it was agreed
that there should be no killing beyond the actual
needs of science except of course when it was
necessary to kill game to supply the game table
with food The rule was that when certain
number Of mammals or birds of each kind had
been killed the shooting must stop and the num-
Der fixed was very small, although of course this
regulation did not apply to destructive animals
like the beasts of prey, mice and other crop de-
stroying rodents
The rule which Mr. Roosevelt insisted upon
lived up to the letter. When Dr. Mearns had Sc
cured fixed number Of storks he wanted to get
one more because he thought there was some
point which might be decided II he could add
another stork to the collection. He told Colonel
Roosevelt he was going to kill another stork
The colonel laughed and said so it Is reported
mot ore your life" Mr. Roosevet's antrace
suicide pronouncement may account for his de-
votion to the interests Of the stcrk
When we were ready to leave the museum Dr.
c. Hart Merriam. who has made careful study
of the collection brought back from Africa, turn
ed to Colonel Roosevelt and said: There can
be no possibility of mistake In saying that the
expedition which you led was the means of Civ
ing to the National Museum the finest and most
valuable collection Of African animals which
exists in the whole world. Science has profted
Immensely as the result of your labors"

Colonel Roosevelt seemed to ind special delight.
One can exhaust all the color adjectiyes in the
English language and yet hardly do justice to
the hues and combination of hues Of the plum
age Of the tropical birds which the expedition
brought back from Africa. DR.. Edward A. Mearns,
who is a surgeon Of the United States army, but
now or the retired list. did most Of the collect
ing of feathered big game and small game, DR..
Mearns is one Of The worlds foremost ornith-
ologists. While he was stationed with the troops
in the far west he made a special study of the
birds OF the sections in which he happened to be,
and on several occasions he was authorized by
Uncle Sam to Join scientific expeditions or
gained 10 make Investigations and collections in
new territories.
It is well known that in a general way the
more soberly clad birds are the best songsters
For instance, take the hemit thrush and the
hooking bird Of America. They are both dressed
in homeSpun, but they have voices Of the kind
which people call fortunes in themselves ;"
There are some sober clad birds in the tropics
and there as elsewhere they are the better
singers.
