Also Setters-The Use and Abuse of Bird
Dogs.
The ordinary bird dog consists chiefly OF
ribs and legs There are two kinds, the pointer
and setter. They are so named from certain
personal peculiarities when searching for
game They are used chiefly to locate prairie
chickens and bring fleas into the house
When tho pointer sets out TO find prairie
chicken it puts its nose to the ground and
starts across the prairie at a rapid rate. Be
fore going far it invariably experiences
change of mind and comes back. The pro-
gramme is repeated, with few miscellaneous
curves dropped in to throw the prairie chicken
off her guard and get up an appetite for din
ner While making these evOlutlonS valuable
pointers have frequently been injured by hav-
ing their nose drop into a gopher hole and
break off. After that pointer may make an
excellent parlor ornament, but seldom
amounts 10 much for hunting purposes.
When a pointer stumbles onto chicken
which it can't well avoid it has a habit OF
raising foreleg to call attention to the fact
One which would point out a bird with hind
leg would be curiosity and command high
price A good pointer, after having struck
this attitude, will keep i for a long time if no
sportsman comes 10 its relief and scaJes up
the bird and shoots calf over in adjoin-
ing field.
The setter is another breed of dog. 1t has
more hair and consequently fewer ribs. The
chief use OF the setter, like that of the pointer,
is for tie hunter to swear at when he misses
his bird The setter is so called from its man
ner of making known the fact that 1t has
sighted game This is accomplished by care
IeSsIy taking seat as if nothing had hap
pened and act ny as if it had sat down to re-
main. very much like carpenter working by
the day.
We have heard of settlers which, after being
seated, would take out a cigar and begin to
smoke or commence to look over the morning
newspaper, but never fully credited the story.
We did however, once see setter when
habitually carried camp stool around IN It's
mouth and upon sighting cOvey of chickens
would calmly sit down on the stool and cross
its legs. We actually saw this several years
ago. so there can be no mistake about 1t.
A fine Irish setter belonging to an Estelllne
gentleman once went into blacksmith shop
during chicken season, and, happening to sight
a recently killed chicken in the belt OF man
in the shop, Immediately began TO set 1t with
more haste than caution, and in so dong by
mistake sat ON a red hot horseshoe which the
blacksmith had just dropped. It's owner AT
forwards paid the blacksmith SI5O Tor the
window sash and telegraphed to the neX'
town for his dog.-Estelliue I'd. IL Bell

INSTRUCTED TO LEVY Deputy Treasurer
Cation has returned from Richmond, where
nc went to settle the city 8 tax account with
inc State Auditor. He says the Auditor
refused to accept the coupons which had
been rendered III this city for taxes, aud in.
structed him 10 inform Treasurer Harlow
10 execute the State law by distraint in all
cases where such coupons had been tender
Ell, assuring him that the State Indemnity
Board would support him in such action by
paying all Judgments, damages and cosls in
case OF suits, Mr.. Cation states that Audi.
tor Ma!yo says he will obey no mandates of
the United States courts. but will act strict
" i'll conformity TO the State laws on the
SUBJECT. Treasurer Harlow, however, will
obey no such Instructions, at the present
time, at least, ~ he has no idea of involving
himself and his bondsmen in immediate
suits with the possibility of the Indemnity
Board being wiped out Of existence before
he could be reimbursed for such damages,
which he would be sure to suffer. He will
simply wait for something to turn up.
