To ti I m who knows the story of the passenger pigeon this group of beautl- fui, grayish brown birds with the Iri descent golden sheen upon their throat Is the last word of a tragedy of animal life. America was once the land of the wild pigeon. Early American writer are full of references to It. Alexander Wilson, the fattier of American ortil-tholiv-y. estimated that a flock seen by , fciui In 1.S0S coutalued over 2.U00.0UU ; individuals. It stretched from the bo-( rUon to the horizon, aa far as the ere f could aee, and was over four hours In passing a given point.
