Th* EncU'a J»*at Not long ago 1 had the good fortune to discover from a car window as eagle'* neat. In September, 1899. while passing North Springfield, Ohio, far from Olrard, I noticed In the top ot a dead tree a huge dark object which at once aronaed 1

an aery of the white-headed eagle, which had been occupied for years and was known to every workman on the

road.

Poaalbly no one now living In Olrard can remember when there weie no rag lee nesting In their neighborhood. For many years this pair their predecessors are said to have

more famous nest was begun at North Sprlngncld In 1885. Thk lasted fifteen years, until January. 1900. With the aid of the photographs of this nest.

When, therefore, one day recently Sandy's master appeared on Broad street without him people could hardly believe their eyes. It was evident that some great calamity had come about. Had Sandy barked his lastbark and taken his departure for dog heaven? Alas, no! A much worse fate had overtaken him. He had gone travelling with bis owner, and In a rash moment had left his side and climbed down out of the car upon the sandy soil 'of Richland county some thirty miles below Columbia, where he was

left behind.

disappeared down the track he was making for the k-oods. and there was a whole pack of yellow dogs at his heels trying to introduce themselves" to him and learn Charleston dog manners. Sandy's master exhausted every means that Ingenuity could suggest to
