OSTRICHES IN PATAGONIA HUNTING THEM 78 ONE OF THE LEADING INDUSTRIES. Habits ot the Big Birds—Captaring Them by Throwing the Bolas Cooking the Game, nN ATAGONTA'S principal industry {| =if such a term ean be applied to the slovenly hab. its of Indians— is, according to Fannie B. Ward, in the Philadel- phia Record, hunt- ing guanacos and ostriches, for the skins of the former and the feathers of the latter are valued articles of com- merce, and the flesh of both serves for food. In the first place it should be under- stood that two distinct species of os- triches stalk over these plains, and that each species has its range, confined within certain limits. Thus the great struthero rhea, which more nearly resembles the African ostrich, roams the northern pam- pas, but never comes below the Chuput River, and the smaller struthero Darwinii, indigenous to the neighborhood of the straits, is not found upon the pampass. The northern variety is hereabouts known as ‘‘avestruz moro” (gray birds), their plumage being uniformly gray, while those of the south have brownish feathers tipped with white. Both build the rud- est kinds of nests—merely a shallow hole scratched in the ground under the shelter of a bush and softened’by a wisp of grass, The females are evidently the laziest of birds, for one nest serves for several of them, who all deposit their eggs in it and then go gadding about, leaving their husbands to hatch the chicks. There are usually from thirty to forty eggs in a nest, and as each egg is about equal in size to ten hen's egys, it requires con- siderable spread to cover them. The period of incubation averages twenty- two days, and it is a fact that tke male bird squats patiently upon the nest day after day until all are hatched, and ther he looks after the able to take care of themselves, rainy weather the faithful father never leaves the eggs for a moment, and been known to stick them a week or more without feeding. weather is fine he strays away an hour two toward evening to stretch his long | legs and get something to eat. If or other animal intrudes and breaks a singie egg during his he knows it the instant he roturns, then his rage knows no bounds: he wil dash the remaining eggs to dance around the debris like a lunatic. After the fe lay their eggs promiscuously about plains.

American bird has many mon with his African cousin. One of these is that he scoots ahead in a straight line when pursued, and always against the wind if he can. Aware of this habit the Patagonians chase him on horseback, first placing some of their party in am natives the y keep fresh half a year ten hen's one The Darwiaii ostriches as their vision i bash in the direction which he is likely | to take. They then gallop full tilt up to the line of flight and either intercept the the ostrich altogether or ‘‘hopple” it with a pair of bolas, —— NUNTING OSTRICHES WITH DOLAS. The latter weapon is peculiarly Patagonian and was in use nobody knows how many centuries before the coming of white men; yet nothing better has ever been devised for hunting the sby creatures of the plains, and the Bpaniards and Gaachos,away up in Chile sna Argentine, have adopted its use. To make a pair of bolas take two stones of unequal size—one about as large asa goose egg, the other as a hen's egg—and grind them perfectly smooth by rubbing one against the other, Cover each with 8 bit of guanaco rawhide, firmly sewed on, tll it looks something like a cricket ball. Then cut two stout thongs, each about four feet long; attach one end of onch to a ball and knot the other end of thongs together so that when the strings are at full stretch the balls will be at least eight feet During | | man who balls the ostrich leaves When the | the other who has been chasin y wit steals or | : i i habits in com- | around the legs of the unlucky objoct struck, whether man, boast or bird, with force enough to bury itself in the flesh. The method of throwing an animal with the bolas has been thus graphically described: “The right hand only is used, and this grasps the thongs at each point of union, about half way between the ends. The balls are then whirled in a circular motion around the head, and when sufficient centrifugal power hae been obtained the weapon is launched at the object to be captured. The aim is a matter of nice calculation, in which mind, eye and arm all bear a part, and 80 true is this aim in Patagonian practice that the hunter seldom fails to bring down or otherwise cripple his game, be it ostrich, cavy or gusnaco. The rounding of the stones is the work of the women, and it takes two or three days to grind a pair to, the proper spherical shape. In some districts far- ther north a third ball has been intro. duced, but the Indians do not regard this as an improvement. Wooden balls are sometimes used, and iron ones when- ever they can be had, as the heavier they are the more execution they will do.

Ames Lane, of Truckee, has invented a snow-sled to run by steam, with which he thinks it will be possible to travel over ordinary snow-covered roads at the rate of twelve miles an hour and over level snow. flelds, under favorable cir cumstances, at the rate of sixty miles an hour. The new sled will be tested this winter in carrying passengers from Truckee to Doaner Lake, and it is scarce. ly necessary to say that if it proves suc. cessful it will almost revolutionize car- rying in snowy countries and may enable explorers to reach the North Fole, San Francisco Call, Easier Sald Than Done. i | ! | THE MERRY SIDE OF LIFE.
