Show A Hound and an Eagle Friends. ' Dr. H. M. Beck, of Green Bay, Wis., has two pets, an eagle and a beagle hound, which are fast friends. The eagle is 4 weeks old, and seems to thoroughly enjoy en-joy the companionship of its four footed playmate. The hound will take the eagle's tail feathers in his mouth, then seize the bird by the breast, being careful care-ful in each instance not to harm it. Then it will frisk about and try to induce the bird to engage in a frolic. All this time the eagle seems to enjoy the fun exceedingly. exceed-ingly. But once let a little black and tan, also owned by the doctor, come within sight of the bird of freedom and its soul is at once up in arms. He assumes as-sumes a John L. Sullivan attitude, and would unquestionably make . short work with the little canine if it came within reach of his powerful talons. Louisville Courier-Journal. ' ' j |
