Hon. William a. Rublee. United States

 There is quite a shade of difference in the color of quail which feed and roost in open fields and those which have woods for a habitat. The woods birds are all ways darker; they are always of strong CT and more cratic flight and are gen. orally larger. This variation Is sometimes so marked as to lead people into believ- ing that the country contains dozen varieties of the Bob White.

shouting of the hunters and the barking of the dogs attracted Mrs. Flickenstein $ attention. and as there were no male oc- cupants of the house. she arose from bed, although it was 12 o'clock at night, secur- cd d double barrel shotgun and went to the scene of excitement. When SfIe arrived the Britt boys ran off tho prem- ises, and she shot the 'possum and car ried it home and cooked it.
 The defendants counsel further con- tended that it was not trespassing for the defendants to go to the place where their dogs had treed the animal, and that Mrs. Flickenstein violated 'he law when she drove the young men away and took the game.
 The Solicitor who is prosecuting the case says the facts as shown by the evil dence cannot warrant such contentious az the defendants counsel makes. and that it is a case wherosa defenceless woman has been compelled to resort to the courts to defend herself against annoyance of which, gallant men should be ashamed to be guilty.
