That roan, to say nothin# of woman,
■tnrtr or In the aggregate Is grega
rious, car.not be gainsaid. Of all the
.creatures of the earth he la at once the
moat aupercilloua and the moat help-
leap. He aeeka the society of his kind,
and also that of the other sex, in hla
frantic endeavor to prevent being
alone. HU own aoclety only la dla-
taateful to him. He surrounds him
self with domeatlc pete, tha eapecial
kind being a matter of fancy. Perhapa,
of all the peoplea of the earth the Eng-
llah lead In their love for dumb ani

people of every clime, tribe, clan or
sect are one In the matter of chooalng
companions from those of alleged
lower creation, receiving ample rec
ompense for trouble involved In the
love bestowed upon them by their mute
wsrda.
Doubtless the dog probably leads oa
a companion for man, the atorlea re
peated of hU exceeding fidelity and
unswerving loyalty being true In many
Instances. Tastes dlfTer, however,
many women, paradoxical aa It may
seem, being said to be fond of mice,
white or otherwise, and the consola

from the.purring* of her tabby by old
maids, la proverbial. How many crip
ples, Invalids, disappointed and un
happy souls find no patient ear in
which to pour forth their vexations
and heartaches but that of a dumb
pet? Peevish complaint Uxea human
friendship. Not so with the* other. A
love for animals, along with that for
flowers and music, denote a refined
nature, and there seems something
radically wrong with the person into

and Byron sang of being awakened by

they being virtually of the same fam
ily, And It la of aome magnificent spec
imens of pheasant that the writer de
sires to apeak here, the birds belonging
to Mr. C. II. Anderson, whoae father,
Mr. T. J. Anderson, Is the keeper of
Riverside cemetery. Mr. Anderson, Jr.[
has a pheasant aviary at Riverside
cemetery and raises pheasant purely
for his love of them, having none for
sale at any price.
Pheasant Aviary.
This aviary la located Just beyond
the entrance to the cemetery on the
right side of the road close to the rose
bed, and affords an Interesting study
even to the layman, who need not be an
ornithologist to admire the beautiful
pets, so gorgeous of plumage and no
ble of bearing. The aviary Itself is di
vided Into three apartments, each the
else of a Urge room, with wire netting
encloelng the whole. The birds are
pets, pure and simple, and there are
three varieties In Mr. Anderson’s col
lection—the silver, golden and Lady
Amherst.
The sliver male bird Is about the slse
of a game cock, being, however, more
symmetrical of figure, and If posslblo
cleaner cut. In fact, the gume chicken
la said to be the result of a cross be
tween a game hen and the pheasant.
Competent authorities declare the silver
pheasant to excel In beauty all other
breeds. Mr. Anderson has a batch of
young silvers ulong with some Jnp
anese ring doves, that are very pretty.
They are three months old, and nre
at present of a brownish color with
black-checked wings, resembling
general contour young guineas. The
full grown silver pheasants have
body of pure white, every feather
the back tipped with black. The breast
is blue, the legs red and the top of the
head a brilliant red, being velvety In
appearance. When angry thU fellow
ralsee hla head. He has long. Sharp
spurs, and being pugnacious by nature,
could prove a serious proposition In
an encounter. Naturally of a wild na
ture. Mr. Anderson states that they
are easily domesticated and the best for
breeding arul general purposes. Hlsn
as tame as po|iskhle. eating with perfect
confidence from the hand. The silver
breed is a distinct specie* coming from
China. There are English pheasanta
without number In various parts of
the country, but theee are the only
Imported ones In Georgia, It Is said.
There are two score or more kinds of
pheasant, and for the Imported breeds
large sums have been expended t

Lady Amherst*.
The next variety of Mr. Anderson's
bird* la the Lady Amherst This is a
handsome bird, about a foot tall, of
lordly mien and a nervous tempera
ment, pacing the lenghth of his run
Incessantly, seemingly 111 at ease. His
body Is of bronze color with a beautiful
sheen, the rays of the sun appearing
to radiate from hla body In all the col
ors of the rainbow. * He has a white
breast, the body being touched off with
gold and -ed, and with a graceful tail
two feet in length of black and white.
He has a cape of white trimmed with
black and la truly a thing of beauty,
and to Its owner a Joy Indeed. Tho
Lady Amherat and the Golden pheas
ant being nearly related, have Interbred
great extent, and although this
hybridisation often brings at the drat
crosa a bird of great beauty, having
aome of the beautiful colon of each
parent, subsequent generations and
crosaes are usually very unsatisfactory,
Mr. Anderson any*. A pair of pheas
ants or a pet cock bird can be kept In
any small covered shed, but In such
quarters the hen may often bo
In danger from the fitful temper of her
savage mate, who Is usually leas chiv
alrous than Chanticleer. The pure
Chine** bird la active, quick, and con
stantly on the alert. He la a bird of
bold flight, pursuing a direct course
when on the wing, and la very hardy
In the same sense and nearly In the
same degree as their distant cousins,
the grouse and quail of Europe, They
withstand the rigors of the long Can
adian Winter, requiring no gieater
protection than well kept poultry, arti
ficial heat being unnecessary, ‘the Gol
den and Lady Amherst pheasants
needing only shelter from the wind.
Is said that a considerable amount of
exposure to the cold is a necessity to
secure the moat perfect development
of these birds, those being exposed de
veloping fnr more brlllancy of color
Ing, as well as better breeding qualities
than those confined In aviaries.
Goldon Pheasants.
Next la the Golden, said by the ma
jority of people to be the most beautl
ful of all birds Mr. Anderson's birds
of this breed are pretty to the high
est degree. This bird's head Is erested
with a gold topnot; a red and black
cape with green trimming on the back,
purple wings, red breast with gold,
red nnd mottled brown tall eighteen
fnchea long, the whole presenting
tout ensemble dazzling to the lover of
birds and others. Mr. Anderson's
Golden bird la about a year old nnd In
contrast to the restless Lady Amherat
is tame and very friendly. Strutting
the length of his quarters he la a gor
geous spectacle In his variegated plum-
ige. which In his case are by no means
borrowed feathers." The morning
dance of the Goldrii pheasant Is de
scribed aa resembling a ballet of sun
beams dressed In rainbow hue# attuned
to music which the average mortal ears
can scarcely grasp, but which the soul
feels. It seems a prayer or morning
praise, a greetlug to the aun and trib
ute to the God who tfius arrayed them.
Golden cocks are enJd to frequently
coat 150 or $100 here; though are much
cheaper, of course. In the country of
which they are UMr^borlgines. Tho
pheasants heat adapted to the coverts
in England nnd the’ United States, aa
well aa other temperate zones, are the
Genus Phailanus. or, as many term
them, the three pheasant.

Speaking of hla pets Mr. Anderson
said; "I get a great deal of pleasure
from tbe care of my birds. I have
found more satisfaction and fewer dis
appointments in pheasxntry than in the
raising of any other fowls and my birds
are as beautiful and as Interesting to
me today as when I first started my
aviary. The young, as you can see
(going to a beautiful little brown fel

are as lively as young partridges and
are quite as hardy.
