FEATS OF CHICKEN FANCIERSl
by Intelligent breeding They have
Produced Fowls of All Sizes
and Co10rs.

The American Standard of Perfec-
tion as drafted anS copyrighted by the
American Poultry association, con-
tains the names of 116 varieties OF
fowls, lis of which are due to the de-
velopment of man. God made only
one-a homely, wild thing, which
made its home in the jungle along
with the rest of primeyal creation,
says writer on the Great American
Barnyard, in Leslie's Monthly. by in
tellfgent breeding fanciers have pro-
duced fowls, of all sizes, from the
diminutive bantam to the mammoth
bronze turkey; one tiny bit of feath-
cred vanity, weighing only a few
ounces, and the other bulky fowl
weighing from 40 to 60 pounds-as
much as a half-grown boy. Results
equally wonderful have been accom-
plished in color effects. There are
varieties in red, black, brown and
white, with nearly all possible COM
binations, beside buff and Andalusian
blue. The fanciers have shown that
they can lace, stripe, spangle or bar
the feathers of their birds in any way
to satisfy their individual fancy. In
fact, about all they have left undone
is to put their initials on the feathers
Of their birds.

JouN GoHGEA, OF Manistique, has
been found guilty Of manslaughter
and sentenced to four years in the
branch prison at Marquette. The
prisoner is y years ola and his case
is pathetic one. Several weeks
ago number of young boys thought
they would have q little fun With
Mr.. Gonyea and wife. They threw
tin cans against the door Of the
aged mans home one evening. Mr.
Gonyea resented this, and getting
his revolver, fired in the direction
the boys had taken after perpetrat-
ing their deviltry for the purpose of
frightening the youngsters. AL.
though it was dark, the bullet struck
one OF the boys in the head and
killed him. Mr.. Gonyea, realizing
that he had unintentionally com
mitted q grave deed, went to the
authorities and told the simple
facts in the case OF course he was
arrested, and after a fair and i'm
partial trial twelve of his peers
found him guilty OF manslaughter
and he must suffer the penalty.
While it is true that Mr.. Gonyea
was the cause Of the death OF the
young boy, yet it is also true that
the aged man is the victim of cir.
cumstances and is paying a penalty
for crime which he had no inten.
tion OF committing.

POLAR BEARS EASILY TAKEN.
with the Modern Repeating Rifle the
Great Animals Are Killed
without Danger.


The animal par excellence, which
the hunter, the amateur Arctic trav-
eler and the young explorer hopes
and dreams Of killing, is the polar
bear, writes Com. Robert E. Peary,
in Leslie's Monthly. The reason for
this is the magnificent trophy which
the great white skin makes. This
feeling was no less strong centuries
ago than it is now, for we read that
one of the early Icelandic sea rovers
TO Greenland quarreled with and
killed his bosom companion because
he had slain a large bear, instead Of
leaving that honor to his chief. With
the modern repeating rifle the bear
stands no chance against the hunter,
no matter under what conditions they
may meet, and if he is hunted in the
native way, with the assistance of
dogs, there is hardly more excite
ment than in killing musk-oxen, ex-
cept for the wild, helter-skelter dash
over the ice to overtake the animal
after the dogs strike the hot scent.
