Albinos.-^-A perfectly pure aHETino Petrochelidon 
I l unifrons was seen to-day- in possession of a tax- 
! idertnist in this city. The bird was shot here a. 
day or two ago and sent to be mounted. Unfor- 
tunately it was shot with coarse shot and some- 
what multilated, but otherwise it is perfect, and 
one can hardly hope to see a finer specimen.
