California engineers have accom
plished the difficult task of lifting
Feather River,a fast flowing stream,
fifty, feet, and carry it for more than
half mile in an artificial bed at that
height above its old channel. It has
been accomplished in a little less
than a year. The object was to drain
the river near Oreville in order to
reach the very rich! gold deposits
believed to exist in J its bed. The
promoters of the great enterprise
are chiefly: Englishmen.
Probably the most .valuable par
rot in Atlanta is one owned by W.
W. Dunlap,' a conductor on the
West Point Railroad. It is worth
$400. Mr. Dunlap has been olTere l
that price for his bird, but i-efused
to take it. The parrot is a fine
Africa'n grey and is an excellent
talker. When you go about him he
first regards you critically, cocks his
head to one side, winks one eye at
you slyly, ; and says: "I'm a $400
bird," Mrl Dunlap paid $10 for his
parrot, and taught it to talk.
