LOOMS GREAT FISH KILLERS.
Wary Birds, But Easily Lured If a
Simple Device BE Tried.
From the New York Sun

From the New York Sun.
Four kinds of people shoot looms;
those who want specimens of this
strange and beautiful bird, taxider-
mists who dress and sell the skins.
those who wish merely to see whether
or not they can center an exceedingly
difficult target and those who realize
that the loon is the greatest of feath-
cred fish destroyers. The looms appe-
tite causes it to be regarded with dis
favor by all anglers acquainted with
its habits. The bird will eat it's own
weight in fish two or three times a
week and it's warfare against the fin
week and its warfare against the
filmed ones is incessant through day
light hours, as it needs to be in order
to keep pace with it's steady hunger.
Many of the -frequented lakes of
the country are little more than large
ponds, occupying from so to 100 acres.
If three pairs of looms make pond of
this sort their summer home they will
pretty nearly depopulate it of small
fishes before going South in autumn.
They do not attack the larger fish,
either because they cannot catch them
or because they cannot handle them,
but they will take care of any bass not
more than a half pound in weight. On
the surface a loon is not much faster
tain a strong duck, but in swimming
below the surface it has no winged
equal. Its neck is far extended, acts
ing like prov, it's wings are pressed
closed to it's body, it's powerful legs
and broad feet drive it almost like an
arrow. loon that has been wing
tipped and realizes that it cannot fly
will dive and for. a while easily out
strip a pair-oared boat. Sometimes
in clear water there are exciting chases
of this kind. Often it will dive and re-
appear at a distance of a quaretr of a
mile, and it can swim even farther I'M
der water without coming up for air.
The best method is to send a shrill
whistle over the water. 1t will stop
then for three or four seconds and lis
ten intently, just as a deer will stop
and listen to similar signal, and in
that time the hunter must do his most
careful sighting and trigger pressing.
The loon can be fooled in this way
once or twice but not oftener. Charles
Piper, a taxidermist at Delafield, Wis.
gets looms whenever he wants them by
a method of his own. He goes to the
lake, marks the spot where the fish
killer is at work, and does not care if
1t is a quarter of a mile out Waiting
until it dives, he runs forward ties a
handkerchief to a reed and runs back
to his place. When the loon comes
up 1t is certain to observe the bit of
white or red cloth and to experience
desire to know what it is. 1t will dive
again, but come up slightly nearer to
the handkerchief. 1t may fool away
an hour at this kind of thing, but
eventually, if it is not disturbed it
will come within forty yards of the
signal. How much closer it would
come if let alone. Piper does not know.

uprooted trees found nothing left but
mud in which to hold on to the ground.
Under his aquatic reign of several
hours. streams became floods, floods be-
came torrents, the seas were confound-

terspouts were whirled in every direc-
ton, ringing and destroying whatever
was above the surface of the waters.
A rock, however, made head against
the force of the hurricane. In spite of
all, it remained unmoved. On its
granite sides the waves broke in frothy
showers, the waterspouts sank at its
feet and the thunder made it laugh
every time it burst against its unyield-

thunder he believed himself to be the
master of the world. But at his feet
a sharp hammering sound attracted
his attention. He stopped and beheld
a wretched being covered with rags
thin and bald, as he had been in the
time of his deepest poverty, who, with
a heavy hammer in his hand was en-
gagged in chipping off pieces of the
granite for the purpose of mending the
neighboring road.
What is the meaning of this9" cried
the naughty rock; "a poor wretch
wretched amongst the most wretched-

myself! I am as profoundly Inundated
reduced to envy the lot even of this
wretched being~'
Take his place." said the angel,
smiling
And the insatiate parsonage became

worked on the highways as long as the

with hunger, three-quarters dead with
