THE AMERICAN
EAGLE.
Indian Methods of Capturing the Noble
“Bird of Freedom*’—An Eagle Trap.
The method of capturing ■ the bird
among the Absaraki and Blackfeet of the
northwest is exceedingly novel and most
ingenious as well as curious. In fact,
there are two styles of hunting eagles.
The first thing of all is, of course, to hold
an eagle dance. An Indian cannot do
anything without first dancing for it, and
as an eagle is an exceedingly hard and
difficult bird to capture, the dance in con
sequence must be all the harder and more
protracted. As a rule the nomads of the
northwest still cling to the antiquated,
antedated bow and arrow, and as their
quarry soars high among the mountain
peaks, forever on the watch and keeping
away from danger, it is a very difficult
matter indeed, even with a fine sighted
rifle and a quick trigger, to bring down
one of these high flying birds Yet the
Craws capture them Almost easily, with
their simple arrows, where a white man,
armed with the best of modern breech
loaders, would fail to score nine times out
of ten. Crawling carefully like a snake
among the rocks, an Indian will work, his
way high above the eyries, when it is
a very easy matter to send an arrow fly
ing downward, and usually with skillful
results.
The second method practiced by the Ab
saraki tribe to secure the much coveted
birds is to build an eagle trap. The brave
who is after plunder goes off alone by
himself to the Big Horn mountains, pro
ceeds upward until he arrives in the per
petual snow district, and selecting a
favorable spot digs a pit large enough to
snugly conceal his person within. After
a vast deal of careful preparation (one
item of which is to carry the loose earth
away in a blanket and cast it to the
winds), the still hunter arranges a cover
ing for his trap, consisting of light reeds
and grasses, and then proceeds to ensconce
himself in the pit. The bait is a slice of
tough meat, bear or mountain goat, firmly
attached with sinews to a piece of raw
hide, and this is laid on the trap outside
to await a customer. Just at dawn of
day. as the sun is coming up over the
eastern peaks, the eagles, who all
night long have smelt the savory
morsel, swoop viciously down upon the
rawhide and bear meat, which they pro
ceed vigorously to tear with their talons
and beaks. Meanwhile, the buck inside,
watching his opportunity,» reaches up
through an interstice in the trap, and,
seizing the big fellow firmly by one of his
legs, quick as wink drags the surprised
bird of liberty down into the prison be
low.
The fun would not now be all on one
side either had the eagle even a flash of a
second to recover himself in; but the'
Indian, the moment his victim’s neck is
within reach, with one sharp, quick,
wicked swipe of his long, keen hunting
knife, severs that member from the body,
and so the matter ends. The warrior then

late to his ftqpnds . and relations the

BROOKLYN BRIDGE. 1
HUNDRED TICKETS PER MIN
UTE DURING “RUSH HOURS.”
TWO
A Steady Stream of Shop Girls, Working-
women and Men, Morning and Evening.
Patrons of the Footpath—Startling; Sta
tistics—Cost and profits.
The day on the bridge begins early. At
6 o’clock in the morning the cars begin to
run under a minute and a half headway.
The crowds pour in and what is known as
the “rush hours” begin. These are hours
of hard work for every one, from the
superintendent, of the road down to the
humblest brakeman. The little dummy
engines that run the three car trains from
the station out- to the point where the
cable connects with the grip rush back
ward and forward, puffing and snorting
and making a tremendous amount of
noise.
This is at 7:30 on the Brooklyn side.
About 75,000 New York business men arid
workmen, who use Brooklyn as a bed
room, are getting ready to launch them
selves into New York. At 7:45 the stream
is at high tide. At two glass covered
boxés within the' spot where three men
are laboring with frantic energy to give
out tickets and make change, two stal- s
wart men stand to see that every passen
ger deposits a ticket. These men need to
be alert and quick eyed, for 200 persons
per minute are passing by these two glass
ticket boxes. It may seem easy work to
watch 12,000 tickets per hour dropped in
to a glass box, but the guards say it has
the effect of giving one the vertigo.
From 7 o’clock until 8:30 the stream of
humbly clad shop girls and working
women and meh "is kept steadily up, and
some twenty odd thousand passengers are
carried over the river. Three cars start
each minute and a half, but in the sec
onds that they are at a standstill each of
the cars is amply packed with ten tons of
humanity. This rush is kept up until
9:30 o’clock, after which there is a lull,
the number of passengers passing the
ticket offices falling gradually from 12,000
to 6,000 per hour. Approaching noon it
is even less on the Brooklyn side, but
after this hour on the New York side the
thousands that thronged to New York
are hurrying back again, and after 4
O’clock Brooklyn begins to regain its
population at the rate of from 200 to 300
per minute.
