RALEIGH, n. c., October 21-tSpecal)
1t will be a surprise to many citizens of
North Carolina to know that last sum-
mer $1,000 marsh hens and jackdaWs were
killed in Currituck county and shipped
to northern millinery houses; that the
gulls and terms Of our coast region have
been almost exterminated for this same
purpose; that the mockingbirds are be-
coming extremely rare in many regions
where formerly they were abundant, be
cause their nests are so perSlstently
robbed for caging; that tens of thousands
of other birds are annually slaughtered,
each Of which would have eaten more
than it's own weight of insect food daily.
The buzzardS, which are among the most
useful of birds, have been killed in num-
bers to get the long-wing feathers for
ladies' hats. The game laws are being
constantly dis=egarded; thousands Of
cartridges are slipped out Of the State
in the face of positive laws to the con-
trary and for the past month these
birds have been killed in great numbers
about many of our principal towns. al
