CROW ROUTS
BOLD BIRD

Special TO the Express.
Spokane. Wash. April ia.-Three
bald eagles. housed in the aviary at
Manito park in Spokane, were put to
flight BY a crow in a pitched battle a
few days ago. The crow made the at
tack by ripping the shingles from the
roof Of the house where the eagles
roasted. The eagles showed fight but
were routed by the smaller bird peck
ing their head and claws. The eagles
flew high into the air and swooped
down in the regulation fashion, but
tile crow, which earned its spurs in
previous combats with hawks and 9TH
er marauders, was equal to the occa-
sion and lodged cleverly when unable
70 counter the wing blows and bill
jabs. Attendants at the bird house
say the fight was lively from start to
finish, adding that IL it were not for
their interference there might have
been one or more jobs for the taxider-
mist. The crow escaped without los
ing drop Of blood or even feather,
while the so-called "monarchs Of the
air" will be kept busy for some time
in getting their plumage in shape. In
the meantime the crow is the hero
among the birds at the park.
