Mllillnl
Thirty or forty years ago, so the old
timers aronnd Cowles say, it was no
unusual sight to see a large flock of
Peliris flying over the country, but
as tfca. country became populated the
birds began to diminish nntil today
it is a,rare sight to see even a small
number and In fact many of tbe
younger inhabitants have never bad
tbe pleasure of seeing one of the birds
Lest Thursday tbe old time memory
was renewed when a flock of five hun
dred or more of these white beauties
passed; over tbe eastern part of tbe
city... un account of tbe strong wind
tbey were flying extremely low, and
the temptation for some of our boys to
shootjSome big game was too great
resist." They at once armed them
selves and with motorcycles and auto
mobiles and got busy to give a hot
chase.
NIckThomas and Wm. Payne, wl o
were in possession of a Ford car. took
the lead. They caught up with the
swiftly flying birds after a chase of
about six miles, aud proceeded to
pump 22 caliber balls into tbe flock at
close range. Niok was in luck, one of
the birds falling at his mercv. It was
a fine specimen weighing about eigh
teen pounds. He had the bird, but
what could he do with it there being
no taxidermist iu town. He soon de
cided that there was nothing to do
only to get busy on the job himself,
una as a result the Pelican is now on
exhibition at the restaurant. We
must sap that Nick did a fine piece i f
wont anil one would think it was the
work of an experienced taxIdurmUt
Nick sayi, that he will bet there w. e
more wire used in this job than ever
used in a job of this kind before, but
he will know better how next tlmo.
so when you have uny work of this
kind bring it ulong.
