II is reported that the famingo,
the pink curlew, and the egra, TO-
gether with several other species Of
beautiful and valuable birds, are
vanishing SO rapidly that within a
few years they will be practically
extinct. The warfare on these
birds has been waged most vigor-
ously, OF course, in civilized coun-
tries. The savage, with his rude
weapons and his indo!ens g, can not
possibly do as much damage as the
civilized man with bis shot gun and
and untiring pursuit, not only OF the
birds but of the dollar.
For some reason or other the hu.
man race is much addicted to that
Iunprvfitable habit known as "shut.
ting the stable door after the horse
lis gone" It would have been a
comparatively easy matter to check
the destruction Of these birds some
years ago; it would be possible even
now to rescue them from extermi.
nation by taking a little care but
instead of that, the hunters will
probably be allowed to continue
their ravages until any bird more
attractive than the English sparrow
has become a mere tradition. There
are some lessons which can be
learned from experience, but the
unfortunate thing is that the expe.
risnce does not always happen
twice. If a man has climbed up q
place where he ought not to be, and
fallen and broken his back, the les
son is not of much value to him,
because he will never climb any
where again. After these birds
have been exterminated and their
habitat rendered unfit for restock
ing, il will not be OF much use to
moralize over the ruthlessness and
rapacity which caused their destruc.
ton.
The measures which ought to be
taken will vary in different places.
In some parts of the country it
would be enough, perhaps, to inn
pose small penalty on hunters
caught shooting birds out Of season.
In other CASE it might be necessary
to forbid the shooting Of certain
species Of birds st all. In places
where valuable birds have become
extremely scarce it might be we'll to
follow some system Of breeding and
artificial protection. This would
employ the native hunters who are
now among the birds most danger
Gus enemies, and would instill in

More Than the Son Of His Father.

The New York Evening Journal
had one Of it's pious spells the other
day and preached q sermon "Just a
Good Fellow" Here are the con-
cluding paragraphs Of this sermon:
"This man was 'just a good fel-
low, and he drank himself into his
grave and broke his mothers heart.
"He was Just a good fellow, but
he disgraced the honorable name
his father had left him.
"He was 'just good fellow, but
he threw away splendid chances to
be be Of use in the world and to do
his duty.
"He was 'just good fellow but
he epent an enormous fortune in
making other men as drunken and
worthless as himself, and running
lives Of unfortunate women.
''He was 'just coed fellow, but
knowing himself to be q worthless
drunkard, he married respectable
girl, the friend Of his childhood,
broke her heart and drove her to de-
spair.
"He was 'just good fellow bet
the result Of his fathers life OF in
dustry was wasted on the lowest
class Of men and women. He never
did an honest days work, never de-
served in any way the food, fresh
air and the merciful kindness that
permitted him to live thirty-six
years.
Just a good fellow'-the term
might better be applied to copper
head snake, which at least does the
best that he can and acts as well as
The eon Of a snake could reasonably
be expected to act."

sermon was printed the same Jour
nal came out in an editorial really
