BIRD HISTORY
PROPULSION OF GAME FOWL IN
MISSOURI VALLEY IN
EARLY DAYS.

Sioux City, April pa Century
OF Missouri River ORTHODOXY" was
the subject of a lecture delivered by
Prof. Myron Fl. Swenk of the Uni
versity of Nebraska, at a meeting of
the Sioux City Bird Study club at the
library lecture room. The lecture
was illustrated with stereopticon
slides showing some Of the birds
noted by early explorers of the Mis-
souri, river country, and also showing
the courses taken by the explorers.
Sources of information upon which
Prof. Swenk based his remarks We're
the journals of explorers like Capts.
Lewis and Clark of the expedition of
1904. and of Bradbury, Prince Max
milan and others during the next
ifty years.
While observations of bird life on
the part Of the Lewis and Clark eX-
petition were not those of ornithol-
ogists, some of the later observations
were scientific and accurate. The
principal point brought u was that
i'm the early days, before the advent
of civilization. game birds such as
ducks. geese, grouse, prairie chick
ems, quail, upland plover and passen-
ger pigeons were exceedingly numer-
ous-numerous beyond all concep-
tion Of the present day. A number
Of these game birds ore now extinct,
or practically so. Those not extinct
are very few in number and rarely
CCcur in this locality. 4 number OF
the species seem destined to extinc-
ton, as the passenger pigeon has be-
come extinct. Those apparently so
fated include the prairie chicken,
grouse and upland plover.
These early journals of the eXplor-
ers enumerate a great number of
birds. both migratory and otherwise,
that still are to be found in this To-
cality. The larger birds, which offer
ed good targets for hunters. have dis
appeared or are disappearing, while
smaller birds, which are less conspic-
uous and not so likely to be attracted
by hunters, are still as numerous. if
not more numerous than 100 years
ago.
The early explorers also indicated
that il was common at the time of
their visits to this country for birds
like geese and ducks, which are now
migratory, to make waters of this
part of the country their nesting and
breeding grounds. At present these
species of game birds for the most
part breed much farther north.
In closing, Prof. Swenk emphasiz-
ed the necessity of protecting birds
which we still have in order that no
more species should be destroyed TO
the point of determination, as so
many species already have been de-
stroyed.

guard is a constitutional appropria-
ton. 1t is also further held that this
does not prohibit the auditor from ex-
amining into any of the claims filed

ing to allow them il he finds that
they are not a proper charge against
the state.
1t Is held on inquiry from the state
engineer. that senate bill No. $50

That his jurisdiction is limited to
bridges which cost SIPS or MORE, and
that metal c~ulverts are not in this

BLACK HILLS FRONTIERsMAN
Shoots and Kills Himself While
Demented.

Spearfsh, April 22.-John T.
Wingfeld, one of the most fearless
frontiesmen of the early days, shot
and killed himself a day or two ago
through fear that he was about to be
arrested on an old charge.
Wingield was born in Kentucky in
1850 and took up his residence in the
Black Hills in June, 1876. He was a
deputy under Sheriff Manning, one of
the pioneer sheriffs of Lawrence
county. A sensational incident in
his career at that time occurred
while he was conducting a prisoner
through Deadwood. The prisoner
made an attempt to escape, and with
out the slightest hesitation, Wingfield
shot him dead in his tracks.
Those who were intimately ac-
quainted with Wingield believe his
mind had been affected more or less
for several years. About twenty
years ago he was thrown by an out
law horse, his head striking a rock | n
the fall. 1t is thought that such men
tai trouble as he suffered resulted
from this injury to his head.
The night before he ended his life
he sought shelter at the home of a
friend who says that Wingfield kept
him awake all night walking the
floor, raying, tearing his hair and act
ing generally in a demented manner.
Wingfeld's body was inferred in
Mt. Morish cemetery, not far from
the last resting places of wild Bill
Hickok and Calamity Jane"
