THE OMAHA DAILY HEEi SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 1002. RETURNS FROM BIG SHOOT Tred Goodrich Talk of American Handicap at Kansas City. LARGE CROWD RATTLES THE MARKSMEN cation thai llfffillfr 'there Will Be Tm Handicap Merlin.. Uf In the Lest an. I tine in 4Ue est. Fred Goodrich has returned from Kansas City, here he enteicd the Grand American handicap, but dropped out with many others after the eixteeitb bird had been killed or missed. According to Mr. Goodrich the ma jority of the men missed, and at the six teenth bird only forty-four of the 1M mm mho faced the trap, at the first bird re mained with rlsn scores. Of these rmn only one la a Ncraskan, F. H. Beard of Herman, who shoota under the name of "H 27." The members of tho Omaha Oun club coring only one rolss at the rooclusinn of the abootlng Thursday were W. D. Town end. lian Brey of Syracuse, F. Mcore of Lincoln and John Taggart. Throe men still hare a chance far money, but two misses la considered equivalent to a knock-out until after the twentieth bird has fallen. "The western shooters are having the fceat of the meeting," said Mr. Goodrich. "The eastern men are practically all gone and the men who err. .in the front rank are from the middle weat. The blrda are better than hava ever been aeen at an American handicapevery one of them wlft and strong, and the man who wlna with a clear acore at thla meeting will hava done some shooting. "The birds and the men are the only thing, that are all right at the meeting. The provisions made for caring for the crowd are Inadequate. It la Impossible to get a aeat and the ahootera have to atand up all the time or be crowded ao that they are rattled when they go to the traps. The grounds are new and damp and are very uncomfortable. Many complaints are heard, but no one expected such a large cumber of people at the shoot. May Be Dlvl.lon Hereafter. "People have aeen at Kanaaa City prob ably the largest number of trap shoot era which will ever be brought together Id America. There are more than twice as many aa were ever assembled on a like oc cvlon. and for thla reason thla Is probably the last meeting of the Grand American Handicap aa at preaent organlxed. Leading men at the meeting say that the country la too big to bold one national event of thla kind and that hereafter there will probably be two handleapa, one held in the eaat and one In the weat. At the preaent meeting, when there Is the slightest delay there la gerlous trouble, aa the number of men lined up la ao great and the time ao short that everything must move perfectly in order to carry ont the program. "One peculiar olrcumatance waa the large number of people who missed their first bird. They seemed to be excited at the else of the event and aixty-three men let their first bird eacape. Of the Omaha club George Blmpklna and Haefer of Council Bluffs had the worat luck. They killed their blrda, but after the pigeons had set tled down to die quietly something aoared them ao that they again arose and flew out of bounds before they could be retrieved. "The beat acore ao far made by a Ne braakan la that of 'Farmer' Burke of Elgin. He killed tblrty-two birds before be missed any. holding two atralght scores In events preliminary to the handicap. Then he got rattled and la out of the race, having missed two bti;datn tte fiil fifteen,';,,. PLAYING OUT HIS STRING Far Doing Seen a Thlna Yoasg Haa ' From Chicago Laaai In Jail. James Aubury waa arreeted yesterday aft ernoon by Officer Baldwin on complaint of Nat Brown, proprietor of the Murray hotel, and W. R. Bennett, who charge him with obtaining money under false pretenses. Aubury applied at the Murray hotel for board aeveral weeks ago, representing hlm aelt to be the advertising agent for W. R.

CURIOUS BITS OF BIRD LIFE Marvels and Mjateries ot Winged Creatures Difficult to Solve, STRANGE HABITS OF DIFFERENT SPECIES Characteristic and Ereentrlrltlea .oted y I lose Observers I, lie In the Air, on Land and on the Water. It is not without significance, writes Olive Thoiue Miller in the New York Tlmea, that the Bphlnx la represented with wings, for the bird, Jth the marvels and mysteries of hia life, is still a wonder to us. Early In any really close study of hia life and habita one la struck with thla fact. Yeara of careful observation and atudy "without a gun" will be necessary before we shall be familiar with hia many extraordlnaiy waya, and still more before we shall be able to understand the eccentrtcltlea ot a life wblch appears at a casual glance aa simple. The whole aubjert of migration, tor ex ample, la wonderful, and full of problems which have furnished material for mile of manuscript and busbala of books, and are still unsolved. And Herr Oatke baa added one more, having dlacovered that the birds alwaya travel with perfectly empty stom achs. The remarkable teat of ainklng the body la water to any desired depth, and holding it there without motion, and without cling ing to anything, ia another unexplained aecret. Geese, ducks, sandpipers and cor moranta are all expert in thla maneuver. The air would naturally appear to be the domain of winged creaturea, yet many ot them are almost equally at home in the water. A fish iteelf might envy the speed and ease with which the penguin and ouzel dash about In the native element. Hardly more than a fish doea that atrange creature, the petrel, need to come to land; eating and sleeping on the waves, hia only tie to earth la the neceaslty ot a cradle tor the helpless young. Whole families ot sea birds paM their Uvea In and on the ocean, and come to the ahore only for the nesting aeaaon. We smile at the idea of a aeabird who la aa much at home on water aa on land, needing or wishing to ride, yet the tropic bird la aald occasionally to vary hia wing exercises by alighting tor a aall on the back ot a tortoise which he finds laxily floating on the surface. Major Bendine telle of a little owl at the weat caught riding on the back of an unwilling gopher with aa air ot aucb composure that the observer waa ' convinced that it waa a common ex ploit of the bird. Keep Oft the Earth. If it seems strange to think ot birds spending their Uvea on the water It ia al most as odd to know of whole families who spend theirs in the air and never come to the ground. In some of the tropical for est where treea are between 200 and 300 feet in height, the upper branches and the air above them are the home ot count leas blrda and lnaecta and monkeys. More than 200 feet from the earth below they find not only light and air, but food in plenty, and even water In the varloua reser voirs ot the giant planta and creepers. Birds have many extraordinary habita, with which all arc ao familiar aa to fall to realize their singularity. The atrange habita of the European cuckoo, ahlrklng the paina and pleasures nf neat-making antf rearing a family, and even in the cradle, l la said, evicting the rightful neatlinga t secure exclusive carer the bornblll, ' wall ing up hia mate, with her assistance, dur ing the process of brooding and feedlag tat young and many others. Some persona will perhapa acoff at the Idea ot a bird's polite manners, and we ahall hear again the old complaint of those who have no real acquaintance with blrda In tbelr homea that we make them too human, but let me present a few trust worthy facta explain them who can. Many of our winged fellow-creatures welcome the approach of their mates by a sudden open ing and closing ot the wlnga. The aeveral kingbirds, whom I have studied, flrat flew around In a circle of a few feet, added a note or two of greeting, then lifted the wlnga with an air that "spoke lounder than words." The aea eagle, according to Audu bon, answers the note of hia mate by open ing hia broad wlnga, bending tbe body In a low bow, and uttering a cry. That we have not aeen more of auch things In bird life la probably because we have not atudled them closely enough. The bows and genuflections ot the burrowing owl ot the weat, aa one paseea bis mound, which gives htm tbe name ot "How-d'y-do owl," and tbe well authen ticated and oft-repeated account ot the cedar blrd'a offering a delectable morsel to bla neighbor, In some cases passing It back and forth among aeveral. both call tor ex planation from the akeptical. It la certainly a moat peculiar thing for a creature with wtnga to go over tbe ground on "all fours," yet there are at least two well known blrda who progresa In that way "on occasions." One is the common grebe, so illy fitted for land travel that when there la occaalon for haste he simply drops to the ground and usea the wings aa a aecond pair of legs, quadruped fashion. Individuality of Blrda. In association with one another birds show as much Individuality aa men. There are blrda of aolltary tastes who are never found with their kind, excepting with a mate In neatlng time, and othera who mate tor life and are alwaya found In pairs. Again, there are speclea who separate by aexea, each aex terming a flock of Its own, and remaining thua except during the period of nesting. Our red-winged blackbird la an example. Still others of ths tribe live al waya In a crowd, not even In neatlng time separating from their fellows. This is the j habit of gracklea. martina, swallows and others. They are not associated for mu tual protection, for most of them are abund antly able to take care ot themselves, but evidently tor pure love ot aoclety. One of these communities Is as sociable and talk ative aa a sewing society or an afternoon tea. As to the varloua ways of food getting 'a the bird world aome of the large aea blrda get It by robbing other birds, and the Eng lish sparrow la rapidly becoming expert In this business. He began by tsklng food from young birds who were being fed by their parenta, and now It la not uncommon to ass him snatching from ths robin the worm be baa Just drawn out of the ground. He la not ao big aa the native bird, but he is a good deal quicker. There are blrda on the other hand who confer benefits by their way of feeding, re lieving animals of their parasite. One in Africa attends to the camels, elephants an cattle, and It Is very droll to see tbe business-like way in which he goea over the big creaturea aa a a od pecker goes over a tree, examining every part, banging bead down from ears or legs, while the knowing beasts stand perfectly still. Our own cow blrda are Indefatigable In their attentiona to cattle. Perhaps that la tha reason they haven't time to make a neat and rear their own youag. food ia PswWaces. Many blrda feed their mate while sitting, but that bird of odd ways, tha bornblll. haa a unique way of preaenting hia offering dona op la a neat package. He swallowa the fruit aa he find It, but not for his oa benefit, tor when be comet to the seat Ira recovers It snugly wrapred In the lining of his gltiard. This la so extraordinary thl e might be excused tor doubting It If t were not abundantly confirmed by authentic a l'.neesea. Another African bird his what might be called dinner parties, where a number aa semble and by dancing about In a shallow lake stir up the inhabitants, fish, frorv etc.; and then dine upon them. We have often heard cf the trick of carrying a hard shell to a height and dropping It to break It and feast on the dweller therein, but one of the clever crow family haa a gentler and quite as auccessful a way. He simply tap on the door of the recluae often a hermit crab. Of course that brings him out to see what it means, with the usual result. The shrike Is recipient r-f much unde served abuae because he has the curious habit of hanging up hia cold meat on thorns for future use, thua emulating our butchera whom we do not think of despis ing for the same offense. There are many atrange wave of adminis tering food to the young, from the robin who drops it Into the mouth, to the flicker, who ram a and hammers it down till one la horrified at the eight, but the most curi ous la the way of a penguin. She comes In from the aea with a supply, then sticks her bill up into the air and delivers a long, noisy harangue a If calling the world to witness. Meanwhile the youngster creeps up to her and waits till the speech la fin ished and the mother benda her head down with mouth open. Then the Infant thrusta hia head Into her mouth and appears to auck aomethlng from the throat. It haa long been known that nature per forme wonderful cures In the animal world: broken bones are Jolted, bullets encysted, the severest wounds healed and the patient able (o live sometimes for years afterward. But It remained for a modern naturalist to assert that the bird himself assumes tho office of surgeon. Prof. Fatlo, who Is In dorsed by W. Warde Fowler aa "one of tbe most distinguished of European natural ists," asserted before a scientific society of Geneva, Swltxerland, that he had seen many cases of snipe dressing their wounds, even In one case applying splints to a broken leg. It should not surprise tis that a species which has been food for powder for agea should have developed aome sur gical skill. SHIRT WAISTS FOR JUDGES Female Drammer Will Make Attack oa the Distnltr of the Judiciary. A report has reached the county court house that a Chicago ahlrt waist firm is conspiring to get its goods onto the backa of Douglas county Judges aa a meana of booming the business and to that end will aend a female drummer to interview the magistrates next week, the orders to be given through a local dry goods house. The prospect la dazzling. Anybody who ever walked far enough around Judge Es telle to get a full conception of hia rotund magnitude will concede that hia flrat ap pearance In a pale blue waist with fancy front and dainty cuffs will be a eight for gods, aa well aa lawyera, reporters and tbe other criminals to whom hia somber coat, old-faahloned collar and ascendant necktie have become so familiar. As an Elk tho Judge probably goea the limit In lodge ri : a 1 dressing, for oft the beni;h be la pre-cui-Inently a good fellow, but If be cllniLs his throne ot Justice in thla revised feminine toggery It will be an. almighty different matter, and one of serious possibilities. Judge Keysor and Judge Fawcett would have difficulty in getting a ahada that would harmonize with their hair, in which the gray la fast crowding, -out the colors of youth. For obvious reasons Judge Slabaugh would hava no such trouble, but the Judge la a zealous church worker .ami not Infre quently on the rostrum where the propriety of a shirt waist ia still queatloned. Judge Dickinson might be a likely candidate, for be la the moat atyllshty dreased man on the local bench, and then again he might not be, tor he la dignified to a degree and tol erant of nothing flashy. Judge Baxter weara a buttonaire every day in the winter and might be prevailed on to wear uncov ered linen of bright hue In the summer. Judge Head would probably buy If he could get a waist long enough, but Judge Vlnson haler Is oft the list, aa he haa the aweatcr habit. Should the gentle drummer have success with some of the judges, there la no telling where ahe would Btop. She might even get Sheriff Power, who la a good deal of a ladles' man, and Chairman Hofeldt of the Board ot County Commissioners. Peter the Silent is no dude, but Is said to be distinctly one of the boya when be gets beyond his Jurisdiction and forgets the troublea of of ficial life.

The postmaster said: "Yea. I made aucb a report In the course of my annual report oo the condition of the atatlona and the office generally. It is un derstood generally that I am opposed to the present system of stations, and this is true, as the atatlona are at present organized. If we could have mall for the stations pouched direct to them It would be differ ent, but under the present conditions It will be yeara before this la done, ao I now think that we should place those stations where they will do the moBt good for tbe greatest number of people. "What ahould be done In Omaha la to abolish all stations. They were created when the floor apace In the main office was limited and It waa as much for thla reason as for anything else that carrlera were sent to these sub-stations. There will be floor apace sufficient In the new building to ac ocmniooate the malls of Omaha for many yeara and much time could be aaved In the delivery of lettera If all carrlera left the main office." When It was learned that the postmaater eerlously desired the removal of the station from Ita preaent alte Interested parties en. tered a protest and It is probable that thla protest will be generally signed by patrons ot the station and aent to Washington.
