fierceness with which they have been
preying upon farm animals are re-.
markable. At the same time they are
SO wary that few of them are shot.
There is large and particularly
ugly bald-headed eagle in the Gardi-
ner's Lake country, in New London
county, which has made such n
nuisance of itself in the matter Of
stealing lambs and poultry from the
farmers all winter, that special effort
has been made to Stay it, but thus far
it has succeeded in avoiding the guns
of score Of hunters and evaded any
number Of pole traps which have been
set aud temptingly baited up in the
air for it.
]. y. Newton, foreman Of the Fish
er's Island farm, killed u big bald
eagle on the island. 1t had become
exhausted from some unknown reason
and fallen in the road. Mr.. Newton
leaped from his wagon and attacked
the eagle with the butt of his whip.
The eagle turned on him tercely, and
il WAS some time before he could kill
it. The b.rd had spread Of wings of
six feet four inches, and was beauti-
fully marked, having white head,
neck and tail, aud the rest Of its body
being of mixed brown. Fishers

Kent. The hen boldly met the eagle,
which dropped like aplummet from
the upper air. Feathers and blood
flew at a lively rate for moment, and
the eagle seemed somewhat nonplused
by it's reception. Then the hen sud-
denly flew into the woodshed, leaving
her tail feathers in the clutches Of the
glorious bird. The hen is still in good
health.
A bald headed eagle was shot while
hanging over James Ways farm i'll
Lyme. An appetite for turkey led
this specimen of the king of birds into
trouble. While it was swooping down
upon the turkey roost Mr.. Way poured
the contents OF an old musket into it,

the largest ever shot in Connecticut.

GOOD Order In tho Alaska Gold Fields

Good Order In tho Alaska Gold Fields.
1.-The River Trip to the Klondike"
is the title Of an article in The Century
by John Sidney Webb. The author
says:
Disputes, whether Of contract or
tort, miners rights, claims. or what
not, were, in the absence Of any civil
government, settled by miners meet
ings. The aggrieved person called
miners' meeting, u chairman was APP
pointed, and the grievance set forth.
II the meeting saw fit to consider the
question, il formed itself into court
10y the appointment OF Judge and a
marshal, by the summoning Of a jury,
and by following ont the forms Of q
court Of law, so far as they knew them,
and some Of them were experienced
men. The parties and their witnesses
were heard, arguments were made, the
jury were instructed, aud departed to
make mp their verdict. This verdict
was absolutely conclusive upon all the
parties concerned, and in some in
stances judgments have been rendered
for several thousands Of dollars, which
have always been paid. Whatever
men learned in the law may think OF
such tribunals, the result undoubtedly
has been that even. handed justice has
been dealt out without fear or favor,
and communicable to most violent
passions has been conducted without
serious disturbances Of the peace OF
infringement Of the rights Of others.
No shooting scrape has occurred, ex-
cept in a single instance, in which q
man crazed with liquor, after q pro-
longed debaucb, attempted to kill
saloon.keeper who refused any longer
to sell him liquor. This disturber,
after firing two shots, was killed by
the saIoon.keeper in self-defence.
The latter was tried aud promptly ac-
quilted.

CURLING.
A Scotch Game zealousiy Cultivated by
Scotchmcn In America.

A Scotch Game zealously Cultivated by
Scotchmcn In America.
The game Of curling has secured q
firm place among the winter sports in
all parts Of the country where there
is heavy ice and where there are
SCotchncn to teach the game to their
American neighbors. There are about
fifty curling clubs in the United
States. aud the Grand National Curl
ing club of America has q member
ship OF many hundreds in all parts of
the North and Northwest; but still the
game is spoken Of as 'Scotlands ain
game"
The game is always played ON ice
covered lakes or rivers. except in Eng
land, where it is frequently played
under glass roofs by men whose white
waistcoats, straw halls, floral decora-
tions aud general lack Of Scotch style
cause the real curriers' to regard them
with scorn.
The curriers' who are members Of tho
New York clubs have their contests
on Van Cortlandt lake. and there is
probably no class Of sportsmen who
60 about game No seriously AZ they.
The object of the game is to plant
the curling. stone, which has tea.ket-
tie shape and weighs from thirty.two
tn forty.four pounds, near the tee
or centre Of circle Mt distance of
forty yards and to guard it there.
Next to the stone the broom plays
the most important part in the game
Of curling, because, in the hands of u
sweeper who IN anxious to see the
stone advance To the circle where IL
will count, il is welded dexterously,
80 that every particle of snow or ice
may be removed from the stones
course. The "skips" or captains Of
the opposing sides have charge of the
sweeping departments, and the sweep
ers have the right to use their brooms
after the stone has got beyond the line
which marks the middle OF the rink.
The sweeping is always to a side or
across the rink and not forward or
backward, where the sweepings might
obstruct the passage OF running
stone.
Match games, called a bonspiel, are
played by opposing teams Of four each,
aud when il is at home curling is es-
seutially democratic. IL has been said
that the lord Of tho manor, the
Clergyman aud the village blacksmith

the smith rs skip" shouting to the
clergyman to "Soop, soop!' when he
thinks "soop," or sweep in front Of
the moving stone will help it along.
The enthusiastic curler sees and
hears nothing but the speeding stones
aud the applause, the shouts of "Weel

which rise on the wintry air show that
youthful spirit may live in II mature

ELECTRIC LIGHTS FOR MESA

Mesa will take another maserial
advance step in providing electric
lights. The city council al It's meet
ing last Saturday night granted q
franchise to II. L. Chandler to put i'll
system of electric lights and con-
tractcd to take five masts each of
l20O-candle power. The proposition
first considered was to take three
lights at $l2 per month each. but on
further consideration it was concluded
to contract for five at $40 each which
was done. The contract runs for i've
years with an option on twenty five.
The work of putting in the system
will begin at once. This is quite an
important step for Mesa to take, and
may result in slightly increasing tax
alton, if SO be, that reduction be not
made or some other line; yet we are
strongly Of the belief that the ulti-
mate benefits will far counterbalance
the slight increase of taxation that
may be necessary, if indeed there be
any increase.
