Eagle a Ships Pet. Aboard the steamer Pathan, which arrived yesterday from Manila, Singapore, Sing-apore, Cebu and Port Said, was a large eagLe bought from a native at Manila by Captain Cnaplln. . The bird, which was named Sammy, measures just nine feet from tip to tip of wings when spread. It was kept in a large wooden box on the bridge on the voyage, but for a few hours each day was allowed to roam about ;the deck with a rope tied to one of its '.legs. It has become the pet of the crew and is very tame. Boston Her-ald.
