dictionary says bird is "feath-
cred vertebrate animal of the
class AYES, frequently included
with reptiles in a larger class, but
distinguished by having warm
blood, a covering of feathers and
the forelegs modified in the shape
of wings"
This bird, the Apteryx, of New
Zealand, called by the natives the
"kiwi-kiwi" bird, rarely misses be-
ing no bird at all. Its blood is
warm. II is a feathered we're
brate, just by the skin of its teeth,
for it's feathers look counterfeit.
And 1t has no wings-so far as
you can see.
It looks for all the world like q
man with both arms severed at
the shoulders. There are many
birds, of course, that cannot fly,
but only few have no wings,
found on the ordinary bird, the
body of this strange creature is
covered with a close growth of
smooth, hair-like feathers.
But science has decided that
once, In the far away past of the
earth, the Apteryx had wings just
like other birds, and this admits
the "kiwi-kiwi" to the bird union.
In the process of evolution, how
ever, 1t lost the wings because II
didn't need any.
The bird lives on the ground
and hunts worms by night. IL has,
therefore, no need of wings to
seek its food, and It does not need
wings to escape from its enemies,
because in New Zealand there are
no native mammals except bats.
As II lives in thickets, wings
would prove hindrance rather
than a help to this bird.

wrists bore marks from the wire.
The girl could only describe tho
men as dark young men, proba-
bly, foreigners.
The attack Is similar to q pre-
vious experience, which mystified
the police a year ago. On that
occasion the girl had gone alone
into the gulch, a mile from her
home and was sitting on a log,
reading a magazine, when a
strange man approached from be-
hind.
The man beat her with club,
gagged her, tied her hands to-
gether with rope, and then robbed
her of q small sum of money and
some jewelry. She did not see
the man and could give no descrip-
ton of him.
Asked 1t he Dropped.
After detectives had investigat-
ed the previous assault for several
days and had questioned the girl
at length, her parents asked the
police to desist from the investi-
cation, claiming that Miss Car
mell's high-strung, hysterical ma
ture could not undergo the strain.
ut is the most unusual case we
have had in long time" declared
Detective Capt. Strickland Satur-
day.
There seems to be no motive
for the attacks. Why anyone
should wait in a gulch to commit
an attack, and then single out the
same girl on two occasions, is a
mystery. The entire affair seems
peculiar, but the girl Is emphatic
in her story, and we are doing
everything we can to get her as
sailants."
No Lovers Quarrel.
Miss CARMEL denied intimations
by detectives that she had expert
enced any lovers quarrel or
that she had told anything but the
truth concerning the attacks.
She is keeping company" with
a nice young man, she said. She
declared that she had never before
seen either of the men who at
tackled her, and that she was so
startled by the shock of the affair
that she could obtain no descrip-
ton of them.

suppose the Tacoma police do
partment will be busy with ex-
plantations after the letter from o
soldier in your Saturdays issue.
You published two of my let
tiers short time ago, so take this
opportunity to write another as I
consider Tacoma people needT
rude awakening to realities.
A long article appeared We'd
nesday in the Tribune concerning
the degrading conditions PREVAIL
ing in the female department Of
the city Jail and that same night
the police made raid and grab
bed five unfortunate girls.
The inhuman treatment melted
out to soldiers should convince
any self-respecting man that the
members of the force and particu-
larly the, detective department,
are incapable of catching a good
thief or burglar and vent their
rage and spleen on girls, drunks
and soldiers, and In that r\pect
they are on a par with the kaiser,
and should be thrown out of Of
flee. If such treatment were 40

was walking up a path thru a
gulch near. her home, 2034 East

strange men accosted her.
Beaten Over Head.
One held a revolver, and aimed
1t at her head while the other,
selling a short stick, began beat
ing her over the head and shout
ders, the girl declares.
When she was beaten until she
could scarcely stand, the man
picked up a length of rusty ball
ing wire and tied her hands be-
hind her. Then the first man
produced a short piece of gunny
sacking from his pocket and tied
1t over the girls mouth.
Miss Carmel says that she
swooned at this moment, and did
not see the men depart. She was
found lying beside the path four
hours later by her brother, as
he was returning from work.
Gag Still In Place.
The gag was still in place and
her hands were held firmly be-
hind her back by the rusty wire.
The girl had not been criminally
assaulted, and nothing had been
stolen, so far as the police can
learn. The scene of the attack
was about three blocks from the
girls home.

You can't always tell q peach
by It's complexion.
Clingstones are often smooth of
skin and delicately tinted but fit
only for picking.
For centuries the peach has
been esteemed the world around
% the loveliest of all the fruits,
nevertheless, there is something
enigmatical about all the peach
tribe.
Whether the peach belongs to
the plum.family along with the APP
ficot, almond and cherry is q
puzzle. Some scientists claim the
beach is an evolutionized almond,
others hold It to be a distinct
genus of Chinese origin.
PEACH SOUFFLE
Peel s fine ripe peaches and rub
them thru sieve. Mix with one
cupful powdered sugar and beaten
folks of eggs, and beat hard for
B minutes. Into this mixture fold
8he beaten whites of eggs, turn

sugar, and bake in brisk oven
minutes. Serve at once.

Peaches make a fine salad II
served with bananas, or celery
and walnuts, or with chopped ap-
Dles or pears. Arrange on lettuce

BAKED PEACHES
Pare the fruit but do not ro-
move the stones. Arrange in an
