A Bat,,es In the Afr.

As I was walking along tho sands on
Seven Mile beach one day last July
saw large bald eagle sitting quietly on
a post, evidently on the watch for prey.
And. let me say, by way Of parenthesis,
that the bird is called .'bald,' not be-
cause itreaily is bald, rs many people
suppose, but because the feathers on its
head aud neck nrc pure white.
We'll, the cunning old fc low was sit
ting so still that one would almost have
taken him for part of the past he was
pc, ched on. uddenly noticed that
he turned his head TO one side, as il
looking at something that interested
him very much, and, following the di-
rection Of his gaze, l saw an immense
osprey, or fish hawk, coming in from
over the sea with IL good. siz.d fish in
its claws.
took i'll the situation immediately
the eagle intended to rob the hawk Of
its prey.
Up tothis time tho hawk had not
seen its enemy, for the very good rea-
son that the latter still remained as a
part Of the post on which it sat. But
lis keen eyes lost not q motion of the
hawks flight, and when it had reached
Point directly overhead the action be-
gan. Sp:ing ng from its perch, the
cage flew straight up ia.o the air,
higher and still higher, until it was
some distance above the hawk,
The latter, struck with terror at the
prospect of the coming conflict, strained
every nerve TO cu.wing lis foe, and foi
time seemed to succeed; but the eagle
knowing we'll the advantage of attack
ing from above, flew still little higher,
anu then 81 ldenly folding its wings
close to its side, it dartcd downward
IKE an arrow at the unfortunate hawk.
The victim lodged to escape the at
tack. but the moveme nts of the eagle
were equally quick, and with n force
that seat them many feet out of their
course, and showcrcd the air with
feathers, the birds came together
They grappled and fought for n
moment, bat then the "bone of conten
ton" the fish, fell from the hawks
claws and descended rapidly toward the
earth.
Seeing this, the eagle startcl down in
pursuit, but it was not quick enough,
and the fish reached the ground, 10 be
picked up by Il spectator Of the unusual
scene.
The hawk seized upon tho oppor.
'n1'ty to make good its escape, and thu
disappointed eagle returnc to its perch
to await the arrival OF another victim

The Original Packa &c,

The action of the courts in Iowa.
Kansas, Pennsylvania and other states
goes to show that the ''original package
decision is to be so constructed as to
practically invalidate all state laws with
regard to the liquor traffic.
That is to say, the Supreme Courts
views Of the Interstate commercial clause
of the Constitution opens way for the
people of one state to sell liquor in an
other state regardless not only of prohib-
tory legislation but also Of statutes
imposing license fee or other forms of
taxation. The term original package"
is held to haye no specific limit, so far
as the question of dimensions is con.
cerned; the importer is free to suit himself
as TO the form or size of the package, ana
he has right to sell it in that form and
size, no matter what the state may say to
the contrary, ~ ~:
This is the construction put upon the
State decision by several Judges recently.
as we'll as Judge Caldwell of the Until
States Circuit Court. There is no room
left for doubt that all local laws for the
suppression. restriction or regulation of
the retail liquor business may be violated
with impunlty through the convenient
device of making sales in unbroken
packages. A State cannot prevent the
introduction of such liquors; and, when
introduced, it cannot, in any way, con-
troll the disposition of them.
There Is but one practicable remedy in
the case, and that is for Congress to
make State laws effective. or, IN other
words, to provide that privilege here
tofore' recognized as a state function
shall continue to be thus regarded. 1t IS
utterly impossible for the Federal Gov
eminent to exercise common police
powers all over the country.
There must be local authority to deal
with local dealers and dangers. That is
one of the fundamental principles of our
political system, and it can not be dis
pensed with. The idea of leaving the
liquor traffic exempt from all. kinds of
law is peculiarly obnoxious to all good
citizens. Whatever differences of opin,
ion there may be as to the proper
method of adjusting this liquor problem,
no community wants it placed entirely
beyond reach of legal interference.
Popular sentiment does not anywhere
favor liquor selling like that which is
now going on by reason of the Supreme
Courts remarkable decision.
The interests Of society are seriously
COMPROMISED by such condition OF
things, and the people arc entitled to
relief and protection. 1t is idle to say
that Congress has no power to act in an
emergency Of so much importance. II
has repeatedly passed laws 10 assist the
States in preserving the peace and pro-
noting the general welfare; and no more
than that is asked in this instance. The
Supreme Court has in effect recommended
such plan of meeting the difficulty. +
