W. lng wersen, who lives about four miles northwest, saw a strange specimen of a bird. His first thought was that it was a white crane. He sent for his gun and shot the stranger only wounding it. He was afraid it would get away and snot again, this time killing it Elbert Purkhiser, who carries mail on that route, came along and Mr. Ing wersen allowed him to bring it to town to see what it was. It was brought here but no one knew what name to give it so he sent it to Ne braska University. The following is the reply he received: Lincoln, Nebraska, May 5, 1905. Elbkrt Pukkiiiskk, Nehawka. My Dkak Siu: The bird which you sent in last week for determination is the American Egret. We would like the specimen for the University Mu seum and unless we hear contrary in structions from you by return mail, will have it mounted nicely and placed on exhibition there. Yours very truly, Lawrkxce Bku.nek. The specimen resembled a crane in that it had very slim, long legs, a very small, long neck, small body, and above the wings was a "duster"shaped mass, very soft but did not resemble feathers. The bird was pure white and from what can be learned its home is in the far south. It is supposed that the. bird has been caught in the high winds that have been blowing so long from the south and was carried by its force to where it was dropped. It is certainly a curiosity and can be seen now by going to Lincoln. Nehawka Register. Juggling With Dynamite Is no more dangerous than to neg lect kidney disorders.
