the eggs or young birds therefrom, within
| the city limits, between the first day of
| April and the first day Of September of each
year Almost any day bands of boys may
| be seen with one or more trap cages en-
! gagged in bird catching, but they will do well
| to put their traps aside for a while. The
| youths can mourn, something like Othello,
that their occupations gone.
