THE STORKS OF ALSACE. Disappearance of the Bird of Lack

Every year the number of storks to be seen in Alsace becomes leas. Of the tour. nests perched on the big chimneys of the old roois of Strasburg, only one has been occupied this year. In many of the villages the great migrators have ceased for a long time to relieve the landscape, and it stenu ouly a question of time when the stork in Alsace will only be a memory. Varina are the causes assigned for this desertion- the draining of the marshes, the multiplica. tion of telephone and telegraph wires, and

the smoke from factory chimneys.

CALM A OF SCARCITY,

A point f interest relative to the sorcity of the stork has been bought under the patice of the German authorities by a doctor at Port Elizabeth, who suggests

JA that they have been polamed through eating grasshoppers or incunts which have been killed by amenic. A correspondent, however, of an Alsace-Lorraine fournal hiots that the cause is to be found nearer at hume. He suggests that the storks, failing to get their natural food, are not above destroying young game, and that the garos presstvera have deliberately shot the once mored birds, diss
