SOUNDS ALARM BY GROWING Have you a little earthquake present in your hornet If not you should get a pheasant, Prof. P. Omofl's Japanese seismologist writing in a recent bulletin of the Imperial earthquake investigation committee, according to a Washington dispatch, for this bird is a decidedly sensitive to earth tremors even when so slight as to be unobstructed by humans. The preservation of a pheasant in Japan during a period of about three years, in which 23 earthquakes were recorded on delicate instruments, that it crowed either before, or during even slight shock. In 34 percent of the occurrences, the bird crowed before the sun's instrument recorded the numbers, beating the instrument by such a range as eight seconds. The 20 percent of the occurrences occurred.  Bird crowed simultaneously with sensible earthquake motion; and in another 20 percent of cases the bird crowed when the motion was too slight to be sensible to the observer. Failed to Crow Once Only. In only five cases did the pheasant crow after the motion was recorded, and only once did he fail to crow at all.
