LIFES SCAR.
They say the world is round, and yet )
I often think it square,
So many little hurts we get
From corners here ani there,
But one great truth in life I've found,
Whil: journeying to the west—
The only folks that really wound
Are those we love the best.
The man you thoroughly despise
Can rou=e your wrath ‘ti true ;
Annoyance in your heart wiil rise
At things mere strangers do;
But those are only passing ills,
This rule all lives will prove—
The rankling wound which aches and thrills
Is dealt by hands we love.
The choicest garb, the sweetest grace
Are oft to strangers shown ;
Thejeareless mien, the frowning face
Are given to our own.
We flatter those we scarcely know ;
We please the fleeting guest ;
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
.
Love docs not grow on every tree,
Nor true hearts yearly bloom :
Alas for those who only see
This truth across a tomb.
But, soon or late, the fact grows pliin
To all through sorrow’s test—
The only folks who give us pain
Are those we love the best.

Extermination of Wild Birds.
Smithsonian Institution Calls Attentlon to Their
Slaughter.—The Total Extirpation of Scores of
Species May Result in Great Damage to the Inter-
ests of Mankind—The Balance of Nature Disturbed
—Some Recent Cases—Raids on the Breeding
Places.
The Smithsonian institution sounds a
note of alarm. It declares that civilized
man is sweeping the wild birds off the face
of the earth at such a rate that before long
hardly any species of feathered creatures
will survive save those which are domes-
ticated. The world is being literally de-
populated, so far as this great class of ani-
mals is concerned. They are being des-
troyed everywhere with the utmost ruth-
lessness, and numerous genera hitherto
plentiful in numbers are being wiped out
en bloe, as it were. The next few years
must witness the extinction of many species
already becoming rare, while during the
last quarter of a century scores of other
species have been totally extirpated. Thus
is threatened a great change in the fauna
of the world—u change that is only too apt
to be attended by results most damaging
to the interests of mankind.
Take, for example, that wonderful bird
cailed the ‘‘rhen;”’ which represents the
ostrich on the American continent
already becoming rare, the survivors of this
magnificent speeies are Liecing hunted sys- |
tematically in Argentina and North Patago-
nia for the sake of their feathers. And
what do you suppose the long and hand-
some feathers are used for ? For millinery ?
Not a bit of it. They are employed in the
manufacture of feather dusters. Thus it
appears that one of the most beautiful
creatures placed on the earth by a bene-
ficent Creator for the benefit and admira-
tion of mankind is to be destroyed forever
for the sake of cheapening the production
of feather dusters !
The millinery feather market is supplied
sehiefly by laying waste the breeding places
of binds.
are not killed cas
but a blow is struck at the future of whole
species by attacking them on the grounds |
where they reproduce their kind and des-
roving them en masse. Where business is
concerned, it matters not whether entire
feathered tribes are exterminated, leaving
a6 a single pair to give hope of perpetna-
tion of the famnily. Naturally, the most
beautifnl birds are selected for extirpation
by such means. Accounts giy of the
ravages of ‘bird pluy iL rr aeding sta-
tions on the Florida cdast are sickening.
Formerly thronged with a happy feathered
population, they are now either made
desert or else are resorted to by only a few
surviving specimens.
The islands of the sea will be first to lose
their avi-fauna for obvious reasons. The
birds in such localities have no place to
which they can retreat. The burning of
woods incidental to human settlement, to
make clearings, deprives them of their
food supply, and they starve to death. The
famous Labrador duck used to be conimon
enough in the markets of the United States,
migrating in winter as far South as New
England. In summer it was plentiful
along the Labrador coast and about the
meuth of the St. Lawrence river. Like
the elder duck, to which it was allied, it
bred on rocky islets, where it was safe from
foxes and other carnivorous quadrupeds.
But sportsmen visited the isléts annually
and destroyed the breeding birds whole-
sale. They had no asylum to turn to, the
shore of the mainland being infested with
four-footed enemies, and the result was
inevitable. The last known bird of this
species was killed in 1852. There are now
thirty-eight stuffed specimens in various
museums. A pair of them now in the
National Museum was’ ‘shot by Daniel
Webster.
The bird fauna of the West Indies is
rapidly disappearing. Among the species
already extinct are three kinds of petrels—
birds which roam the seas and usually
breed in the mountainous interiors of is-
lands. One of the petrels alluded to was
formerly common in Jamaica, where it was
popularly known as the Blue Mountain
duck. A weasel-like animal called the
mongoose was imported into Jamaica for
the purpese of killing rats, which attacked
the crops. The rats took to the trees, the
mongoose being unable to climb, while the
latter devoted its attention to poultry and
wild birds that build their nests on the
ground. It soon exterminated the Blue
Mountain duck, and its agency will goa
long way toward finishing up the birds of |
Jamaica.
A species of macaw,
of the ordinary macaw of Mexico, used to
be plentiful in Cuba. Not a specimen has
been seen for thirty-five years, though it is
believed that a few still exist in swamps in
the interior. Several species of handsome
parrots, were formerly numerous in Dom-
inica, Santa Lucia and Martinigue ; they
were of large size, brilliant plumage, and
quite different from any other parrots.
Though very rare a few survivors live to
this day in inaccessible parts of the islands.
There is a kind of heath-hen which exists
to this day on the Island of Martha’s Vine-
yard, off the coast of Massachusetts, though
found nowhere else. But for the protec-
tion of game laws it would have hecome
extinct long ago.

Im
A ood many species of the land birds are |
= . 1
already extinet, and more are doomed to
disappear within the next few years. This
result is due in part to the occupation of
| the tillable soil by farmers and of the hill-
| sides by cattle. But the entrance of civili-
| zation is invariably accompanied by the in-
troduction of animals hostile to the native
birds, such as the cat, the dogand the hog.
i Hogs destroy immense numbers of young
ground birds and their eggs. Thus the
whole zoological balance of nature is upset
and the indiginous fauna succmmibs. The
mongoose has been imported into the Sand-
wich Islands, as well as the California
quail and the English sparrow. The spar-
row, which has become a scrt of parasite
on man, drives out the native birds and
consumes their food supply.
Perhaps the most notable bird of the
Sandwich Islands was the *‘mamo,’”’ which
has been extinet for only a few years. It
was hunted yery persistently by the Ha-
waiians for the sake of two little tufts of
yellow feathers on its wings. These feath-
ers were used exclusively in the manufac-
ture of cloaks worn by the kings of those
islands. One such cloak, the original esti-
mated value of which was $1,000,000, is
now preserved, sadly moth-eaten, in the
National Museum.
The rapid destruction of the avi-fauna of
New Zealand is especially distressing to
naturalists. The entire fauna of those
islands is peculiar and stamps New Zea-
land as being certainly one of the most
ancient parts of the world. When the
country was first discovered by the whites,
there was not a single mammal on the is-
land, large or small. The birds were most-
ly without the power of flight. One of the
most remarkable was the ‘‘weka’’—a sort
of rail, striped and with long fluffy feath-
ers. The so-called ‘kiwi’ included eight
species—remnants of one of the most an-
cient of all classes of birds, their nearest
relatives being now fossilized. The kiwi
is otherwise known as the ‘‘apteryx ;”’ it
lives in burrows, and lays only one large
egg, being nocturnal in its habits. Cats
and hogs have nearly wiped out the kiwis
and the wekas. Incidentally, the aceli-
birds and rabbits. To get rid of the destrue-
tive rabbits they have imported ferrets and
stoats, which gobble up the flightless birds.
There is a peculiar parrot in New Zea-
Jand which is becoming very rare. Though
fruits were its natural diet, it took to at-
tacking sheep a few years ago, using its
powerful beak to bite into the flesh of the
living animals until the kidneys were
reached and devoured. The sheep-herders
certainly had a good excuse for endeavor-
ing to exterminate it. In the islands about
Madagascar there were formerly several
species of little parroquets with long tails
to-day they are nearly or quite extinet On
the same islands were two species of large
{ mud hens, one white and the other purple,
belonging to the family of raiis ; they ave
i extinet likewise. The Pallus cormorant,
!Lugest of all known cormorants, used to
be found on Bering Island, in the North
| Pacific. It has disappeared, and only four
specimens exist in museums. The Caracara
eagle, which bred on the island of Guada-
|
loupe, 0if the coast of California, is gone. !
Only a few living specimens of the Cali-
i fornia condor, the largest bird of light in
the world, remain. This gigantic vulture
has been nearly exterminated hy poison

vessward to Texas
Southern Florida and the Indian
tory. The species has been wiped out in a
most ruthless and wanton manner. These
little birds sleep inside of hollow stumps,
hanging by their beaks, which are stuck
into crevices. A while ago the so-called
“passenger pigeon’ flew by millions in the
Ohio Valley as far east as Massachusetts.
Now only a few of them are left. They
have been shot by wholesale, and while
shooting from traps.
Before the white man came there was a
large and clumsy bird on the Island of
Mauritius called the ‘‘dodo.” It was re-
lated to the family of pigeons. Being in-
capable of flight and good to eat, the species
was destroyed wholesale by sailors, and
the eggs and the young were caten by hogs.
So it disappeared and not a single specimen
remains in any museum to tell its melan-
choly story. Mauritius had also a small
but peeuliar owl and a big parrot, a large
heron with short wings and a big tail all
of which are now extinct, as well as a good
many other birds which are now known only
by the stories of early voyagers and the
bones found in caves on the island. Far
to the eastward of Mauritius, on Rod-
riguez Island, dwelt a near relative of the
dodo called the ‘‘solitaire.”” It became
extinct about the heginning of the eigh-
teenth century.
Of all birds recently extinet none is more
interesting than the ‘‘gare fowl,” or ‘‘great
auk.” The last two living specimens were
seen and taken on a rocky islet off the
southwestern point of Ireland. A single
egg of a great auk was sold not long ago at
| auction for $1,500. And yet, sixty years
Iago, birds of this species were found on
I'unk Island, off the Newfoundland coast,
in countless numbers. People from the
mainland used to go over to the island in
| summer and kill them by myriads, to eat
| and for their feathers. They were so fat
i that they served as fuel. Ships used to
| land there and get boatloads of the auks
by the simple process of placing a plank
between the boat and the shore and driving
the helpless creatures over it. The Smith-
sonian institution has practically a corner
on their bones. A while ago it sent an
agent to Funk Island for the purpose and
he brought back nearly a barrelful of auk
boues. If you wanta skeleton, you will
have to send to Washington for it, and it
will cost you about $600.—-Philadelphia

What Modern Journalism Has Come to
It is doubtful if, in any other line of
business, there has been a greater stride
| than the past decade has witnessed in the
| making of newspapers. The scope of news
comprehended in the average daily paper,
the accuracy and detail with which matters
of public interest are presented for readers
and the amazing dispatch with which news
| is gathered from all points of the globe and
| again disseminated are among the perjplex-
ing questions that often present themselves
to the minds of readers, as they pore over
the almost magazines that are to-day called
enterprising dailies.
In this latter class one paper, published
in the western part of the State, seems pre-
eminent. It is the Pittsburg Dispatch. Com-
ing to Bellefonte at 9:28 every morning,
having traversed one hundred and sixty-
five miles of railroad en route, it is a daily
budget of all that is fresh and readable in
news of the world.
The Dispatch has ample facilities for fully
covering all important events at all times.
Its staff of Cuban correspondents is larger
than that of any other paper in Western
Pennsylvania, if not in the State. Able
writers are stationed at Madrid and Ha-
vana, and with Sylvester Scovel and Steph-
en Crane in the field with the insurgents,
its readers will be the first to secure all the
news concerning the struggle for the inde-
pendence of the Pearl of the Antilles. The
special London and Continental cable ser-
vice has been strengthened, the Washing-
ton staff increased, and all other important
news seats the country over connected with
the home office by leased wires. All this
means that the Pittsburg Dispatch, for 1897,
will be progressive and up-to-date.
Besides its elaborate special cable and
leased the wire service, the Dispatch carries
the full Associated Press service, and the
complete reports of all local Western Penn-
sylvania, Ohio and West Virginia news.
Its special Wall street letter, and elaborate
and correct market reports, are a marked
feature, this department alone making the
Dispatch a necessity to the business man,
the financier and the farmer.
