' One day I saw a vulture sailing thus, •ays Ernest Harold Baynes In tbe Boston Herald, and I carefully marked his flight until ho descended from the white clouds and disappeared near the edge of''* distant wood. Supposing that bo had come down to feed on some carrion—a dead horse perhaps, which had been dragged just outsldo of tbe woods and left—I made the best of my way to the spot where I lost sight of the bird* that I might be • witness to the feust. 1 urrlved at the wood, but neither bird nor carcass could I see. Then I bethought mo that this was tho month of May, nnd that perhaps the buxxard bad a nest thereabout. I buuted un der the bushes, along tbe aide of fallen trees and In some old stumps which were standing near, but uot a feather was to be seen. ~I*reecntly 1 spied a log wblcb^lty somewhat apart in tho shudow of some shrill is. and as I approached It out from soiuewhero came a big turkey buzzard, which quickly disappeared behind the trees. On coming up to the log, which was u (urge one, I found that It was hollow, and In tho cnvlty , there were two eggs, which doubtless tho coupons to be turned in, and j belonged to the vulture which bad Just they w 11 bo received only on ; departed.

The next time I visited tbe hollow log the parent birds were not In sight, but In the nest I found two downy fledgelings, which could scarcely be called pretty. They were In every way lesa attractive than young hawks of tbe samo age. Tboy expressed their disapproval of my presenco by a weak growling aound. I could not vlalt the apot again for aome weeks, and when I did one of them had disappeared. Tbe other was no longer In the hollow log, hot stand* Ingot a little distance, and I was In terested to see the change In hie ap pearance. In tho flrat place, he bad grown tremendously; the down which bad formerly covered tbe whole body was now confined chlofly to the bead, neck and under parts, and the reet of tbe bird was clothed with firm black feathers. He looked fat and well fed. I reached out my band and caught him by one wing. But here be had a surprise for me, for he aelxed my An ger In hla hooked bill and with a tern of hla bead twisted off a bit of tbe flesh before I hud time even to object After hurriedly cleansing the wound I again advanced on the enemy, who was game enough to satisfy any one and came to the attack with open bill. Of course he wus not daugerous In the least, for he wus very young and could not even fly, but for a fledgeling tbe grip he could give with his hill was ustou Ishlng. However, I picked him up, took Jilm home nnd tethered hint In the garden with u strap to one leg. The first night he ate a good meat of liver, nnd after that he took almost any kind of meat that was given him. I let him have carrion whenever It was convenient, but at other times be ate freshly killed frogs, freNli beef, opossum aud even fish. One night soon after I had ‘brought him home I went out to see bow he looked when he was asleep. It was so dark, that his black plumage wus not visible against the grass. All I could sea of blm wna n white spot his bead, aa It hung near the ground. I approached very quietly and was within live feet when something hap pened. Out of the dnrkn**ss there came a flash of white straight toward me with a s|ieed which caused me to step quickly backward, and at tbe aame In atant there waa a startling, rustling sound, accompanied by a guttural growl, which for a moment I did not recognize aa the voice of the young WANTED—Position at helper Iu blagX- ■mith th'»p.
