AN our-oF-DooRs VACATION

Mr.. and Mrs. F. 7. Smith of Lead
vile, who were the guests Of MIR. and
Mrs. ]. R. C. Tyler for the past week,
departed this morning via the eastern
for Ignacio, thence to Pagosa Springs,
where they expect to remain for a
week or two, and try for some fishing.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith were on an out
ing in the Bear creek country, at the
time of the flood and were marooned
there for several days, before getting
brought to Durango. Mrs. Smith said
while she regretted the damage which
the flood had caused, she had enjoy
ed the ride over the country, since
she had had the opportunity of seeing
il in way she would not otherwise
have done. They are making the trif
in order to spend their vacation out
of doors as much as possible.

SHEARS WERE SHARP.

A ripple of amusement flowed
across the Atlantic some time ago
when a London publisher, having an
hounced new edition of the Poems
OF Francesca Petrarca, received n
communication from an alert clipping
bureau of New York, stating that
the firm had its eyes on the world,
and that if Mr.. Petrarca wished to
know what the American press
thought of so promising a poet, all
tnat was necessary for the British
publisher to do was to forward an
advance fee of five dollars. Yet a
chDoing bureau that can .recoenjgz
the value of poetry that has With
stood the test of half thousand years
and more seems to be wiser than it
knows.
Possibly it was another bureau that
the United States fish commission
ventured to patronize. The ichthyolo-
cist in charge wrote that they wanted
all clippings containing mention of
hsh, and the contract was made on
the basis of the number of clippings
secured.
Just at that time there was trouble
in the Union Pacific, and the first
bunch of clippings, which bulked
large, contained several hundred ref
erences to Stuyvesant Fish.

THE CURIOUS KEA.

Notwithstanding the utmost efforts
to exterminate it, the remarkable Kea
parrot is still a fairly numerous spe-
cies in the mountainous reeion of the
south island of New Zealand; and in
all likelihood it will never be entire
ly eXterminated in the remoter fast
nesses.
This is the bird that is so cele-
brated as destroyer of sheep. For a
good many years it caused a loss of
about % 9 per a 6. Gent 81, tbs, flerl's. ssed
deal of damage of the kind-suffi-
cient, at all events, to give occasion
for the employment of professional
hunters to destroy it wherever it can
be found.
The Kea is gifted with an inordi-
nate curiosity, which, in as much as
it seems incapable of learning wisdom,
renders it under some circumstances
an easy prey to the hunter. When
the latter has used up all his car
tridges, he allows the birds-which
customarily travel in flocks--to see
him disappear behind an overhang-
ing ledge. The parrots want to find
cut what has become of him; and
one by one they walk to the edge
and look over, only to be knocked
on the head by his stick.
The natural food of this species OF
parrot consists of fruits, honey, in
sects and worms. In all likelihood
its prediction for fresh mutton eamt
originally from its curiosity. Com
ing across fresh sheepskins or deat
sheep, it pecled at them; and, hav
ing acquired the taste, the parrot tool
to killing the animals on its own ac
count-the method adopted being t.
grip the wool on the back of the un
fortunate beast and, while the sheel
runs about in helpless agony, to peel
out and devour the kidneys.

THE ELKs OPENING.

Yesterday afternoon the local or
oanization of the Elks opened their
rew club rooms to the general pub
le A great many visitors happened
IN during the course Of the afternoon
and all we're loud in praise Of the
handsome furniture and fittings.
Last evening the four beautiful
,ooms were filed with Elks in honor
Of the auspicious occasion. An Or
ehlestra rendered musical selections
during the evening, and members
present enjoyed themselves in various
yavs until the elegant lunch was
served.
On the first and third Thursdays
Of the month the ladies Of the hik'
will have charge of the club rooms
and will use them, having the priyl
lege of inviting any out-of-to"f
orests visiting them at the time.
On Oct. 27, the Elks will give
dance complimentary to members O
the order and their ladies.

. FEARSoME WEAPONS.

Although the notion that the por-
cuI.ine defends itself by shooting its
quilts to distance-like arrows-was
long ago exploded, few persons know
how really dangerous and even fatal
Quite commonly are these same curl
Gus weapons with which one OF the
oldest of all the mammals is pro-
,ided by Nature.
Anybody who takes the trouble to
e.xamine dead porcupine will be sur
,rised to find how slight is the at
tachment of the quills to the skin on
the creatures back. They come away
readily in the hand when little pull
is given; and this, indeed, as will
presently be seen, is a very import
ant feature of this peculiar defen-
sive equipment-namely, the looseness
and ready detachability thereof.

A NEW LETTER BOX.

The latest suggestion for letter box
es is one made Of pressed steel, with
out any ledses OF places in which
letter might become lodgei in its I'M
terror. This ie n trouble which exists
despite the greatest care. Many let
ters are delayed or fail Of delivery
entirely by being caught inside the
letter box and securely held there.
Another feature of the new box is
that it had drop bottom, which is
almost as great a consideration TO the
posal authorities as the smooth in
terror, for It permits box filed with
undreds of letters to be emptied as
quickly as another containing but a
few letters. The carriers receptacle
is swung under the box and the bot
tom opened so that all letters drop
Mt once down into the bag without any
possibility Of loss or delay.

outcasts that have to forage Cor a

In one year the Cruelty society of
New York city killed monthly an av-
erage of six thousand sick, injured or
homeless cats-a total for the wear
of over seventy thousand. A large
proportion of these were pets aban-
doned by people who had gone to the
country for the summer. 1t often han
pens tnat summer visitors TO the
mountains or seashore take their cats
with them and, on returning home.
leave them behind to swell the num-
Der of stray cats and to make serious
lnroads on the birds of the region.
1t is safe, says the biological survey,
TO assume that in the rest Of the
state outside of New York city as
many cats follow wild life as in the
metropolis, and if it be assumed that
each cat kills one bird a week there
is grand total of over thirty-five
hundred thousand birds DESTROYED an
nually.
These facts are set forth in the
forthcoming yearbook of the depart
nent of agriculture, which adds tina

MARAUDING CATS.

The government biological survey
states that the "sleek highwayman'
known as the house cat destroys more
wild birds and young poultry than all
native natural enemies combined. A
est has been known to kill a whole
brood of chickens in day-a feat
unequaled by any predaceous animal
with the possible exception of the
mink. 1t is not uncommon for cats
to destroy whole coveys of quail or
grouse or nests full of young song
sters. In the In the New England
states alone, it is estimated, fifteer
hundred thousand birds are killed an
nually by cats.
Unfortunately, the birds thus de
stroyed are almost never sparcows
Cats often try to catch sparrows, bu
