No Big Game In Porto Rico.

In Porto Rico there is no big game,
says the Boston Herald. The only large
animal is the wild goat. which is found
in the beautiful mountain country in
the interior of the island. and these are
too much like the trained ''billies' that
are harnessed to children's goat carts
to be mistaken for the wild creatures
Of the woods. But. on the other hand.
there is an intnitude of bird life. espe-
cially from November until February
Nearly every bird which flies south up
on the American continent finds its
way to the marsh lands or forests Of
Porto Rico. The wild goose and turkey,
duck and ortolan are visitors az regular
as the sunrise and the spring, So rich
is sport in the interior that already a
movement is on foot among the hunt
ers At the north tn open II number Of
camps in Arecibo and Ponce and to
