Thousands of Robins Shot livery Fall
for the MOrsel of Meat on Their
Tiny Breasts.

In November the robins in focks of
hundreds make their way into the gar
dens of towns, as well as into the parks
and fields and orchards about the bay
of San Francisco, where many of the
blessed wanderers are shot for sport
and the morsel of meat on their
breasts, says John Muir in the Atlantic.
Man then seems a beast of prey, pray
as he may. Not even genuine piety can
make the robin-kiler quite respect
able. Saturdays are the great slaugh-
ter days in the bay region. Then the
city pot-hunters, good and bad, with a
ragtag of boys, go forth to kill, kept
in countenance by sprinlling of regu-
lar sportsmen arrayed in self-conscious
majesty and leggings, leading dogs and
carrying hammerless, breech-loading
guns of famous makers. Over the fine
landscapes the killing goes forward
with shameful enthusiasm. After es-
