FEARS THE FRIGATE BIRD. |

Hi* Merolla*« Master.
The booby bird never leaves the
broad seas, where hi* harsh cry is
heard from the Hebrides to tho Faroes
and from the cliff* of Scotland to the
coast of Norway. He revels In the
storm* and «creams above the roar of
the sea. The booby ha* green feet,
yellow eyes and a defiant head cov
ered with a yellow cap. Each of Its
wings 1 » three feet long and Its beak
Is so stiff and so strong that It fears
no enemy but the frigate bird.
The frigate bird Is the terror of the
birds of the sea. though he ignores all
■ut the boohy. Owing to the breadth
>f his wings, the frigate cannot fish;
Ir.- 1» forced to remain In the air. But
-i he cannot got fish in the air and
as he requires fish for his nourish
ment ho presses the booby Into his
service. When hungry he swoops
down upon the boohy and give« it a
vl -orous thmst In the throat. Then
The booby's mouth opens and the fl*h
I might in it drop« out. Tho frigate
has only to give one peck at the
Imoby's throat to get his dinner.
It happens occasionally that the
hooby attacked by tho frigate has
nothing In it* month. When the
frigate pecks in rain he belabors his
slave with his beak and drives him,
bruised and terrified. Into (ho, era to

Bullet From Gun in Hughe's
Pocket Lodges in Woman's
Heart
SLAVER KEEPS OUT
OF WAY OF POLICE
In the erection of the General Citem
leal Company'« plant at riayin in,
made his escape .after having «h a
and inatantly killed hl« wife «any
Ia«t. evening. The shooting occurred
about 8 o'clock In a shanty occupied
by Hughes and tho woman In the
construction camp near the plant,
The local authorities were notified,
but in tho confusion following the
shootlng Hughes slipped away and is
still«at large. The police in this city
were furnished with a description of
the fugitive In the belief that he was
coning ""s «'ay.
Details of the. affair Ore meagre
Tho first report, was to the rflVçr,
that the killing had hen cold blooded
anil deliberate, but later reports
modified tills somewhat. It Is under
stood that tho negroes In (ho con
srnction camp, who were attracted to
tho Hughes shanty by the sound oi
the shot, say that the shooting was
accidental. The authorities are
somewhat skeptical as to this explan
ation of the affair as Hughes prompt
ly took advantage of the brief oppor
(unity afforded by the confusion to
make himself scarce. The story told
the Wilmington police by some of
the men In the construction camp, is
to the effect that Hughes and Ills
wife were indulging. In good natured
horseplay and a revolver, which he
had in his coat pocket, was
charged accidentally. The bullet
found lodgment In the woman's heart
and she died instantly. The men deny
that Hughes and the woman had been
quarreling earlier In the evening and
say that the best of relations existed
between Hughes and his wife.
Tloroner Chandler went to the place
last night and took charge of
body and will continue his invest!-'
gallon today. Hughes Is a Virginian
and came to this section of country
with (he construction gang brought
hero several months ago hy the con
tractors who are erecting the chemi
cal plant. There are nearly a hun
dred men in tho gang, all of whom
live in shacks on the ground, Hughes

late to make any arrests.
It appears that John and Eben
Harris, colored, and brothers, living
at No. 18 Carpenter street, the latter

Ebon then ran from the house with

exploded while the barrel was pointed
skyward and only the night air was
