A. B. F. KINNEY'S IDEAS
Endorsed By Many True
Sportsmen Here
abouts.

Instead Of tramping through covers
on the lookout for partridges yesterday,
hunters busted themselves discussing
the aspect of bird shooting, which re-
cent remarks of A. B. f. Kinney placed
on the sport. Mr.. Kinney said several
things which stick in the crop of some
bird hunters of this city. He called at
tention to the growing scarcity of birds,
which he attributes to various causes.
better dogs, better guns, and better
brush shots being prominent.
He suggests as a remedy shorter
season or 4 limit to the number of bird 5
that a man be allowed TO shoot.
The greatest objection to his remarks
are made by some who can be classe
amorg the best brush shots in the city.
They argue that there is not the scar
city of birds that Mr.. Kinney speaks
of, and attribute the falling off in mum
bers to the destroying of pine covers,
which are the haunts of cartridges.
However, Mr.. Kinney's remarks strike
a responsive chord in the breasts of
many true sportsmen. Those who hunt
for the sport alone, and enjoy hunting
as a sport only, see q great deal of
truth in the remarks of Mr.. Kinney.
There are brush shots in Worcester who
can hardly claim to be sportsmen. They
are in the brush continually, and shoot
entirely for the market Instead of a
pastime with them hunting is bust
ness pure and simple. They would de-
cidedly object to be classed with those
who snare birds. but they have no more
right to be classed with those who hunt
for pleasure and recreation it gives
them. II too many birds are killed dur
ing d season, it is not sportsmen who
kill them. IL is the hunters who go out
every day hunting the best covers from
morning until night for birds to sell.
If there is to be any discussion on q
shorter season or limit to the num-
Der of birds killed the opinion of these
men should be left out of consideration
altoge Their.
Those who do not agree with Mr.. Kin
ney's ideas, claim it makes no difference
what becomes of the birds after they
are shot, which is very true. But in the
preservation of game birds it makes a
big difference whether they are hunted
for sport and recreation, or whether
they are hunted by professional hunt
ers, who make a living during the open
season by the gun.
An agitation of no small dimensions
has been started and as opponents If
both sizes are set in their ideas, the
discussion is liable to reach farther than
the boundaries of Worcester.

FORFEITED THE 500.
Ras Rogers Backers Will
Try Their Man on
Again.

Although the Worcester sports who
matched 'Ras Rogers against Eddie
Durham forfeited the 800 put up to bind
the match, instead of allowing their
man to compete for $500 side, they
are not satisfied that Durham can beat
Rogers, and they have in mind going
to killing next season with Rogers.
They will have their man train regu-
larly next season, and will match him
apainst Durham for twice $500. They
got together a. day or two ago and
talked the match up, and are deter
mined to get back the 500 they lost anc
several other amounts as large with
it.
John P. Irwin told The Spy man that
the forfeit was not made entirely
through fear of Durnan's rowing abil-
ity. He said while he would not care
to wager oil Rogers at that particular
time. ne would not dare to risk a wager
on Durnai, as he was not sure Durham
could defeat Rogers. He said Rogers
did not reach the mark which was set
for him by the hackers, and when he
couldn't, his hackers decided not to let
him race for several reasons. One was
that they feared the sporting men Of
this city would look with suspicion on
the race, If the men didn't make fast
time Naturally they feared the result
also, but it was more on account of the
condition of Rogers than of his in
ability to beat Durham, if he was right.
Mr.. Irwin says he is confident Rogers
can whip Durham, and next seasonswill
back the Schuyler man. But when the
next match is arranged Rogers will
have prepared for it. He didn't prepare
for the one which fell through last
week, having rowed only few days
before he came to the lake. Durham,
on the contrary, had been sculling ali
season. Rogers was in good physical
condition, as his practice work at the
lake showed, but there was a difference
between physical condition and rowing
form He had done hardly any rowing
this season. His condition came from
taking good care of himself and from
the exercise he got in attending to the

THE FRoHslNNs' LAST.

The Frohsinns formally closed the
lake season yesterday by a concert at
the club house. Worcester Light In
fantry orchestra was in attendance and
played during the greater part of the
afternoon. The singing section of the
society gave several choruses. There
was large attendance of members, and
although nothing elaborate was at
tempted, the day was an enjoyable one.
The house has been open every day
since Memorial day, with a steward in
constant attendance. The house will be
closed during the week from this time
out, but if the remaining Sundays of the
month are pleasant the house will be
opened on those days. Arrangements
for the social exercises of the winter
will begin at once.

land records went to smash in the Ruiz
Scholze amateur motor paced fifteen
mile match in the intermediate dis
tances at the Sunday meet at Hills
grove track There was very enthusi-
astic crowd present. At the ninth mile
Scholze caught Ruiz and it looked as if
Scholze had the race as good as won.
But as his motor tandem attempted to
pass Ruiz it lost Scholze. Then for a
lap he was without pace and could not
make up.
Scholze had everything inside of re-
cords at 1, Z, 8 and miles to catch
Ruiz. The latter rode evenly throughout
and after Seholze lost pace the race was
all for the New Haven rider. Ruiz broke
existing figures in the 10th and 18th
miles. His time for the full fifteen miles
was 27:2S. winning the race with lead
of 200 yards.

The 15-mile motor race between Boil

track today was called off after ten
miles had been ridden owing to trouble

ADMIRAL" BIRDS FLEET.
Transports Which Have Now Become
a Part of the Army.

Part OF the Army.
That the Spanish war has brought
about many changes is evidenced by
the pictures that hang in the room Of
Col. Charles Bird of the quartermaster's
department. Col. Bird has charge of
transportation matters, and especially
such transportation as relates to the
sea. The Spanish war made it neces-
sary for the United States army to have
transports, and such ships as could be
turned into the service were taken and
used to carry the soldiers to Cuba and
Porto Rico. Since that time the trans
port service has been improved to such
an extent that our ships that carry SOL
diers to and from the Philippines and
which are now used in the service be-
tween the United States and our West
Indian possessions are of the best that
can be planned. Col. Bird has now be-
come known as Admiral Bird and
the ships of the transport service Of
the army are called Admiral Bird s
fleet by the navy. The pictures of the
ships that adorn the walls in Col. Bird S
room are of those which have been pur-
chased by the United States. They are
the Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Thomas,
Hancock, Logan, Buford, Burnside,
Crook. Hooker, Ingalls,, Fitzpatrick, Nc
Clellan, Mcpherson, Meade, Sedgwick,
ships, the Missouri, Relief and Terry
In addition to these are number Of
chartered ships, which are now being
used to transport the volunteers from
Manila to the United States and are
taking the soldiers and cavalry re-
ments and other supplies to Manila
from this country They are the
Athenian, Aztec, Centennial, City of
Para, City of Sydney, Conemaugh, Ga
rome, Indiana, Leelanaw, Morgan
City, Newport, Ohio Pennsylvania,
Fort Albert, Senator, Siam, ST. Paul,
Tacoma, Tartar Valencia Victoria,
Wyefield and Zealandia. At present Ave
of these ships are armed for the pur-
pose of protecting them from possible
raids of the Filipinos. They are the
Grant. Sherman, Sheridan, Warren and
Hancock. The Thomas and Logan,
which are now on the Atlantic coast,
but destined for Pacific service, will al
so be armed. The pictures in Col.
Birds room are quite imposing, and
while there is a deaf of sameness about
them, the artist who made them has
endeavored to show different marine
conditions. although he has not escaped
the criticism of the poet who said 'as
idle as a painted ship upon a. painted
ocean" No matter how much care he
has given to make the ships appear as
blowing their way swiftly through the
water. yet there is a stiffness about
them that cannot be obliterated by the
painters art. The probabilities are that
Col. Bird will get VERY sick of seeing
those pictures before long and will have
them removed. No man could stay in the
same office with all those ships and not
become very much distressed.-Wash-
ington Star.
