Bird Island Of Laysan.

hundred and sixty acres is a lagoon.
This gives the island the appearance
of an elongated doughnut. At no
place does the island rise more than
twenty-five feet above ocean level.
The place swarm with birds. L
learned more about birds on this trip
than | had ever dreamed Of before"
Commodore Salisbury said yesterday
afternoon. 1--WE brought home with Us
175 rare specimens. These will be
mounted and placed in the govern
ment museums.
1--WE found two varieties that are
found nowhere else. One is the Lay
san rail. 1t is about the size OF q
quail and has small wings, but they 90
it little good, for it cannot ny. We
started home with eighty living speci-
mems of the rail, but the return trip
was so cold that AL except five died.
The survivors were left at the Golden
Gate park in San Francisco. The
other bird peculiar TO the island is
the Lay.an teal, q fowl smaller than
the mallard duck, but resembling it in
general appearance. Incidentally, We
found a pair of mallard ducks that had
come over from the mainland OF CAN
fornia, thousands Of miles away"

on AN ISLE OF BIRDS
Commodore Salisbury Tells of an
Expedition to LaySan.
Retired Naval Officer With Party of
Scientists Spent Eighty Days
Gathering Data on a Mid
Pacific Island.

Kansas City, Mo.-Straight from
in the Pacific ocean, Commodore
George r. Salisbury Of the United
States navy, retired, has arrived at
the home of his brother, Mark Sails
bury, two and one-half miles northeast
of Independence. The contrast is
great between life in this old mansion
hidden among gigantic pines in a quiet
Jackson county farm and life on the
island of Laysan, where no man lives,
and where myriads Of water fowl
darken the air or hide in the ~low-lying
sandy slopes, barely rising above the
ocean level.
Commodore Salisbury was busy
writing out a report of his voyage to
the government, but not too busy to
tell a representative Of the Kansas
City Star of some Of the strange
sights on the island.
He was in charge of an expedi-
ton sent out by the department Of
agriculture, which has charge of the
bird reservation of United States ter
ritory. With him were three natura-
lists. The party left San Francisco
December 5, 1912, in the United States
revenue cutter Thetis. Their destina-
ton was the Island of Laysan, eight
hundred miles northwest Of Honolulu:
Laysan is peculiarly rich in bird
life. Eighty days were spent there.
They returned to Honolulu March %,
and a few days later took passage on
the United States transport Sherman
for San Francisco. They reached
that city April II. There specimens
taken on the voyage were shipped to
Washington. After a few days spent
in the coast city, Commodore Sails
bury started back to independence,
arriving there last Sunday.
A map of the Island of Laysan made
during their stay shows it to be Of Pc
culiar formation. It is about two and
| one-half miles long and one mile wide.

TransmisslbllIty of Genius.

The sale OF relics OF Robert and
Elizabeth Browning by executors OF
the estate of their son, the late Robert
Weidemann Barrett Browning, which
began May 1, again calls attention to
the fact that the child of a union SO
richly lowered, from the literary
and artistic standpoint. failed to show
traces Of the genius OF either parent.
He was an artist, but did nothing ex-
t~raordinary. 1t would almost seem
that genius not only has a way OF
sometimes consuming its %possessor
but also of consuming itself. as far
as the Immediate offspring are con-
cerned. AT any rate, the evidence as
to its transmissibility is still lacking
although, of course. there are plenty
of facts to justify a belief as TO the
transmissibility Of special talents.

General Logan sleeps is intended only
for enlisted men who served in the
regular army and without regard to
which war they saw service in-or, for
that matter, whether they saw service
in any war.
Not only has this home 70 cOnnec-
ton with any Of the volunteer homes,
national or state, but it receives no ap-
preparation from the government, be-
ing wholly maintained by the enlisted
men of the regular army, who con-
tribute to its support out of their pay
on much the same theory that a man
invests in life insurance. This is the
forerunner of all the soldiers homes,
now scattered across the country from
Virginia to California, having been
established ten years before the out
break OF the Civil war. That the home
is a decidedly prosperous institution
nay be inferred from the fact that
it has several million dollars to its
cridit in the United States treasury,
and it's buildings, largely Of white
marble, are set in grounds compris-
ing more than 500 acres of beautiful
land that cost about one-third of a
million dollars, and is maintained as
a park with recreation grounds, pa
vilions where band concerts are held,
and ten miles of graded, macada-
mizeG roads winding through selected
groves of native and foreign trees and
high, open ground that commands
splendid views of the capital city.
A man must have seen 20 years OF
service in the regular army ere he is
entitled to a home in this institution
unless, mayhap, he has been disabled
by wounds or disease in the service
and in the line of duty. He must also
be honorably discharged from the
army before he can admitted to the
home, so that all the inmates OF the
institution are civilians.
Marching past the Logan vault on
Memorial day one may see inmates of
home who have served anywhere from
20 to 80 years in the regular army.
Their ages range all the way from
twenty-four to ninety, but more than
half of all the veterans are between
the ages of sixty and ninety. Several
score of these old warriors saw service
in the war with Mexico, whereas con
s%iderably more than 500 of them par
ticipated in the Civil war.

teeth of the prisoner.
"A bad TOOTH" said the sheriff,

number of crimes are committed by
people who are badly nourished. Nal
