A Monster Owl Killed In the Ci:sliIis.
Henry Z. Mckenzie of Port Even
came up the U. and D. railroad as far az
Olive Branch for the purpose of shoot
ing game. While out in the woods near
Browns Station a large bird flew over
his head. Mckenzie fired and succeeded
in injuring one Of his wings, causing it
to drop in a woods neal by. He quickly
ran to where it fell for the purpose OF
securing it. When he reached the spot,
he made ON attempt to get it, but it
sprang ut him in such a furious manner
as to cause him some alarm and a great
deal of anxiety as to his personal safety.
With the aid of his companion, Ed
ward Davis Of Olive, and a long pole
they succeeded in turning the bird on
it's back and tying its feet with a piece
of rope, thus rendering it helpless and
safe to carry. II turned out to be a great
owl, q bird rarely seen outside OF British
America, its natural habltation. Its
wing measurement is 5 feet, it stands
nearly "a feet high and has 4 head about
IS inches in circumference, surinounted
in two large horns. The only injury
done the bird was a slight wound about
the left wing, and il WAS taken to Port
Even by Mr.. Mckenzie, where he has it
on exhibition. Many people who have
visited Central park and seen tho many
curious owls there say that nothing like
1t, either as to size or resemblance. Is on

to elude their pursuers. They are
hunted by dogs, who are trained to take
them without inturing the fur.
The ancient Peruvians used to weave
very beautiful materials of the plucked
hairs. which were used only by royalty.
Probably one reason of the popularity
OF the fur al present is that In 1880 the
french naturaliStS firSt gave their atten-
ton TO the chinchillas, being enabled TO
verify the statements made by Molina
many years before by observing some
Of the little animals which had been
brought 10 the "Menagerie of the
Museum" In Paris. Public attention was
drawn to them. The fur became the
fashion. As we are now masqueradng

must wear chinchilla.

end to bribery and shuts off the gang
OF rowdies and bull dozers who were

We believe improvements may be made
In the law, but even, as IL now stands,
IL Is an Improvement upon the old way
The one-constable feature OF the law
offends the sensibillties of our Republi-
can friends; but those who clamor for
more than one constable should think
a moment II you have more than one
constable, as the Stanton indicator
very sensibly remarks. the law should be
enlarged to have one for each political
party, and when this ia done you destroy
the secret-ballot feature. and might as
we'll go back to the good old vlva-voce
plan. You see. when voter asks for
the Democratic constable, II is equivalent
to announcing his desire to vote the
Democratic ticket; II he calls for the
Republican constable, he shows his colors
as plainly as II he had held up his ballot
for public inspection. and SO on. Hence
to have more than one constable Is TO
completely destroy the secret ballot to
secure which was the prime object OF
this law.
Aagain. II voter has not the necessary
intelligence to enable him to read ana
distinguish the names of the candidates
printed on the ballots, he ought not to be
allowed TO vote.

a resident OF the State twelve months,
and OF the county, city. or town In which
he shall offcr TO vote, three months pre-
ceding the election, shall be entitled 10
vote, etc. with certain exceptions named
1llteracy Is not disqualification. and
TO hold an election In such a way as
to diequalify illiterate citizens would be
In violation certainly OF the spirit OF the
Constitution.
We are agreed with the News that with
all the advantages OF free education
offered In this State, the man who does
not take enough pride in life TO learn
how to read, Is not as a rule, certainly,
~ or fairly entitled 10 exercise the right
OF suffrage. But the Constitution under
which we live does not prescribe an edu-
cationai qualification. and so long as
that Constitution exists. II must be re-
spected.
Our neighbor. the Dispatch, in comment
ing on recent paragraph In the State
bearing on this subject, says:

We are inclined TO believe that the
Dispatch is right. The people OF Virginia
want fair elections. and they are going
TO adopt some method which will give
them an honest ballot without the con-
slant hazard Of falling into the hands OF
the Philistines.

WOMEN AND REVOLvERS.
Hints on the Authority of n Gentleman
Who Is an Expert Shot.
written Cor the Dispatch)

written Cor the Dispatch)
There are some secrets. or rather points.
I'm regard TO shooting off a revolver that
are worth while considering.
Possibly. however, the tiger In the jungle
and the bear in the mountain as targets
DO not allure you. but you will have the
misguided midnight burglar to contem-
plate. IT may be well Just here TO remark.
In parenthesis. that the efficacy of pistols
in the jungles is open TO doubt. but the
burglar is always with u.s. and we ought
TO know the very best and most fin de
steele way OF shooting him.
The following hints are given on the
authority Of gentleman who Is an expert
pistol shot:
How To stand and how to hold the
weapon is of greatest importance; the
body must be balanced equally on each
foot (even IL your burglar escapes mean
while). slightly facing the target, and
the arm held perfectly straight out. The
arm should never be bent. The hand
grasps the revolver high on the butt with
the thumb well around to the inside and
straight. and the trigger finger entirely
free This throws the work OF holding
the revolver wholly on the outer fingers.
The object If this position Of the hand is
10 get the barrel In exact line with the
arm when extended, thus bringing the
target, the sights. and the eye in one line.
This position also minmizes the effect of
trembling and rotating the arm. The
weapon being properly aim ID. 1t should be
held there, and the trigger very gently
and steadily pressed. The mind should
forget the possibility Of an explosion, and
the whole attention devoted to holding
the sights Of the revolver In exactly the
proper position on the target. or you
are not quite steady. In attending TO all
these little details, the burglar Will doubt
less shoot you--but that is an incidentD
Above all things. should the shooter
keep up a steady pressure with the
trigger finger and on no account yield 10
the temptation TO add Just little more
force suddenly. The technical terms ex-
pressing these qualifications are good
holder" and good trigger-pull."
The revolver is peculiarly an American
weapon. The Americans have made scores
never approached by any other nation.
Not only are they first, but they occupy
every position between that and
twentieth The weapons in use are the
quick-hring or self-socking and single
action. What the self-cocker gains in
rapidly OF action is more than lost by
lack OF accuracy Still. there are records
where one has been able TO put five shots
in a space one foot square. at a distance
Of thrty-six feet In four fifths of one

There is a certain class OF individuals
who cannot put three bricks In line on
