MORE COMMENTS OF THE ENGLISH PRESS on
THE FINDINGS IN HIS CASE.


THE FINDINGS IN HIS CASE.
London. Feb 1.-The st. Jamess Gazette" in

says:
The New-Yorl Yacht Club has given Lord Dun
raven severe lesson in fairness and good manners
Lord Dunraven first insinuated and then published
later when difficult verify or refue. an ac-
cusation Of sordid fraud. which impartial and
thorough inquiry shows to have been based upon
the fimsiest Of evidence If the accusation OF I'M

Jockey Cub. j. found TO have better origin, we
doubt If the club Will conne itself TO the use OF the
New-York Yacht club and American sportsmen
generally very ample amend He owes ii 10 his
own reputation gentleman to apologize
''The Pail Ma. Gazette says that the charges
made by Lord Dunraven have been courteously re-
futed. and expresses hope that the incident Is now
closed. international contests between England
and America THE Gazette" says. have led TO
such ll-fcenC that almost reeretful that
they should continue. We hope that al concerned
Will prevent airy unfrendy feeling as the result OF
visit OF the Yale University crew. and then per-
haps. there may be another challenge for the Amer
lea Cup"
THE Westminster Gazette says that probably
no one deplores Lord Dunravens outbreak of temper
more than Lord DunTaVen himself
The Globe" says that Lord Dunraven was justi-
fed In making charges. though they have neither
been proved nor disproved. The Globe bames the
original Cup Committee for the whole trouble and
hopes that until there reforms in the methods
OF American yacht racing England will not again
challenge for the Americas Cup.

Old hunters love to recall tho times
when kentucky abounded in game, and
many are the stories they can tell of "the
good old days"
Once upon time 1t became known in
Graves county that remarkably large
flock Of wild turkeys might be found near
the forks Of two small creeks. AT that
timo the game laws were not so rigid as
now, and it SO happened that two hunters
started out the same morning after the
flock. The purpose of each was to kill the
old hen, for then 1t required but little skill
to call up the half grown brood, which are
justly accounted the best of eating, and
kill many or all of them. To fool an old
gobbler or hon Is feat Of which few can
boast, but the young ones may be tolled
into range by an amateur.
Well, one of the hunters gave with his
turkey wing bone caller tho "Peep peep!'
of youngling. 1t was answered by the ap-
parent 'Kee-oul" of the old hen which he
especially sought. Failing to draw the
supposed hep nearer, he began to stalk her
down, and anally drew so near the place
that he began TO stealthily search for her
location. He saw, in dim way, some-
thing move and drew "a bead' with his
gun, which was loaded with buckshot.
At that critical period came tho cry of,
6 For Gods sake, don't shootl'' and few
explanations sufficed to show that neigh
Dor had killed the old hen, was initiating
her call and came near losing his life for o
stimulation which a brother human could
