W tnglOM Bird la B?II?V?4 Nearly extinct. The total extinction In Kyglaod of the kiwi (or apteryx) has become a reality. The i cotton Dally Mall an? nouncea tfce death of the Regent's park soo'a only specimen. The species la nearly extinct In New Zealand now, but the British Zoological society ha* written to the NtfW Zaalaod govern ment asking If Just one more kiwi can bo spared from the laland wanctuary. Zoologists will mourn (he losa of the dwarf wlugleaa ostrich more than the xoo visitors, for not one In ten thou sand ever saw |t while It lived there more than nine years. The keeper would turu out this queerest of birds every now and th-en, but the long billed bundle of apathy and sleepiness scrambled back Into Ita box as soon as released. ? A curious point about the kiwi Is the fact that Its nostrils are at the tip of Its long worm-hunting beak, and ii} the ardour of**?hol tfia^e It emits an unpleasant snuffling noise. Ita mating call Is a plg-Uke squeal. Kngiand Is responsible for the vir tual extinction of this nare bird. Brit ish ships brought rata to New Zea land, so weasels wen* s*-nt to extermi nate the rats. When they had nearly wiped out the kiwi, the New Zealand government found a ra t less Island and consecrated it to the. poor bird. But the problem of saving an Idiot bird that puts all Its eggs Into one, shell, so to speak, was ft difficult one. The kiwi laid j>ne egg a season, nearly as big as Itaelf. Exceptional mothers would lay two eggs and then llnd it almost Impossible to hatch both, as the ends would project out beyond their feathers as they sat on them. FEW IDEAS OF REAL VALUE Wireleaa Telegraphy *nd Telephony Are Still Comparatively Irt the Stagea of Infancy. "As every one khows, !t Is a com paratively simple thing, to get n patent on anything, ao long as you have a good patent attorney and ar;e abjQ tp. Incorporate 'a- few' new k"nlekknaoks In your device. Hut such a thing as a really new Idea, not to speak of a basic one, ltf scarcer than the proverb ial 'hen's teeth.'" Thus H. (iernsback, In the Radio Amateur News, comments on the ?rarity of anything new In wireless telegraphy or telephony. Inventors, he says, content ^topiu^vlves with making Improvements in existing 'He vices. These are good, but Inventors should not get the. idea that .the Inst word has been said In basic princjples. He says some one will probably discover a more sensitive'- detector than the vacuum tube; some one will devise a better transmitter; some one will In vent a receiver that makes use of the eyes It.stead of the ears. 4,(?et ofT the beaten path," he a?iys. To Give China a Bible. Americans have spent $132,000 so far to give China a Bible In Its own language, the Mandarin.
