The Pope as a Sports man.

Pope Leo XIII. seems to be somewhat
of sportsman. His exploits are con
fined to the gardens of the vatican and
are conducted in a dignifed silence.
Small birds serve for game, and these are
lured into box-like traps by means Of
small grain; then the Pope, who is
meanwhile concealed in the adjacent
shrubbery, pulls convenient string the
door of the trap falls and the birds are
imprisoned. Subsequently, the birds are
sent to the kitchen, where duly they are
served up in such style as dumost soothe
the papal palate. The Italians. as a eco
pie, prey largely upon small brds--upon
those small birds that at other seasons
and in other parts Of Europe are known
as songsters Every winter thousands of
nightingales are butchered in Italy. The
nightingale does not sing in Italy; with
spring it migrates and mates aud breeds.
A movement looking to the protection of
these birds has been undertaken by GER
tain English and Germans. but it is
hardly probable that the Italians will be
induced to enact legislation for the bene-
fit of their naighbors. II Chicago News
