red-tailed and -shouldered hawks
 have patched up their last years nests
 and in many instances have deposited
 the eggs and begun incubat!or when
 spring comes in. Owing to the inoccns- sible places in which the nests of these two most common species 0f calcon are | located comparatively few persons have inspected the bulky receptacle of eggs at close range.
 | At the top of tall trees on which fhe branches grow sparsely mass of sticks, leaves moss and roots seem to be dumped promlScuously into great
 pile at the intersection of the highest limbs. Viewed from the top the nest presents different aspect and the skill and patient labor manifested in the
 compact mass of crooked sticks and
 roots have given 1t really artistic
 curve about the symmetrical cup in which the eggs are laid. In any large area of heavy timber situated somewhat remotely the birds build, and if disturb ed and broken up will build and lay again. The young remain in the nest until they become larger than their
 parents and become very fat on the
 rats, squirrels, moles and other small
 rodents and reptiles which form the
 usual diet of both these species of
 hawk.
 Occasionally raids upon the barnyards have gained for them the name of hen or chicken hawk and the enmity of the farmer The redtail is much more sd- dfcted to the poultry habit than it's rel ative. but through their similarity of appearance the chicken raisers do lot discriminate between them, and ghe rcd shouldered, which rarely approaches the poultry yard, Is frequently hunted down for the misdeeds of another species.
 In the lowlands and deep, inaccessible swamps where the trees grow thick and water covers the ground during the win ter and spring the great horned owls are at home. They can be heard un- cannily hooting in the dark recesses of the woodland. Just after New Years the owls begin locking about for build- ing site. In the depths of convenient hollow or upon the old nest of a crow or hawk the owls, after much patching to suit their individual tastes, some time during the month of February deposit their clutch of two or three white, glob- < ular eggs.
 Close sitting is required during the in- cubation at this cold season, and ir- stances have been noted where during I violent snow storm both the nest and incubating bird have been covered with several inches of snow. Many eggs are destroyed by the crows, who suck them. The owls which choose the hollows for their nesting sites escape this source of danger, and 1t Is strange that more cf the species do not utilize these natural tree cavities.
 The young owls when matched are white and resemble balls of thistle down. Small animals, birds and rep

Dlckerman officated and made very beautiful and affecting 1 remarks, especially when speaking of | the traits of character of the deceased and of the Christian's sustaining hope. 1 There were many very beautiful floral tributes. A feature of the occasion was the presence of and the singing by a class of nine young children from the Sunday school of the Church of the Messiah, of which Mrs. Andrews is the
 teacher, It was by special request of | the deceased a short time before he died that the class was present. They sang "Oh for the Peace That Floweth Like a River" which was favorite selection l of the deceased, who was an active worker in the Sunday school dele gation of Quinnipiac lodge, l. O. o.

 The deceased was an exemplary mem- Der of the Church of the Messiah and labored faithfully and continuously in behalf of the interests of that church. For many years he was an usher there, and the attendants at that place of wor- ship will miss his smile of greeting and his friendly efforts in arranging for the comfort of all. He had many friends throughout the city who esteemed him highly.
