Creature is of Unknown Species, But is Believed to Be Akin to the Pelican Tobe. Atlantic City, , 'May T.--At-' tacked by an et bird of un- known species, supposed to be a mem- ber of the pelican family. Doughty fought the battle life shortly before daylight, Before he wae able to vanquish his feathered antagonist, which he knocked down with an oar. After confirmation of bis weird tale Capt, Doughty, on his return to this city, showed a pinched black and blue, and cine clothing, wong with the strange bird, which he trussed up and brought home in his coat. Local sdentists who have viewed the feathered mon- ster are still uncertain of its species. It weighs over, 100 = pounds, and stands almost as tall as a man. According to the story told by Doughty he was sculling his boat along in front of Rum Point, near Brigantine, shortly before daylight, and in a dense fog, when he was at- tacked by the bird. The bird is still alive, and will be presented to some collection if it sur- vives the beating it received during 1the battle. | AT ST. LUKE'S HALL.
