Chicago, Oct. 3.-An 8,000-mile journey
from Yokohama, Japan, including i
voyage across 5000 miles Of ocean and
a trip of 5000 miles by rail, all for the
purpose Of spending twelve hours in
Evanston. was the remarkable globe trot-
ting experience OF Charles w. Case Deer
Ing, son of the secretary of the Deering
Harvester company. ~
Mr.. Deering arrived at his home yes
terday morning at o'clock. At In the
evening he was aboard a coast bound
train bearing him swiftly back again
toward the fiowery kingdom.
What Mr.. Deerlng did In Evanston was
to say Good morning to his relatives,
sign few important papers, and take
dinner with his grandfather William
Deering, the founder Of the Deering
plant.
Fitting from continent to continent as
easily and with as little ado as the aver
age Evanstonian makes his daily ex-
cursion to and from Chicago, Mr.. Deer
ing was not inclined to consider his per-
Torrance remarkable. He said it was
necessary for him to transact business In
Evanston, and his presence there in per-
son was required. When that was ac-
compllshed the allurments of the pictur-
esque As1atic country were too strong, and
he promptly started back.

MIKE KAH0E'S DUCK STORY

Startling Anecdote of a ..

Jack Taylor, one Of the Microbes star

The accuser is Charles Dryden, says the
st. Louis Star, the well-known baseball
writer. '.- b.. = T. w.,
Catcher Mique Kahoe, of the Browns,
says he, too, is a mighty slayer Of var
minis in the winter time, like Orth, Beck

the baseball hunters.
He and Jack Taylor Of the Cubs go gun
ming together near Jacksonville, O.
1t was Taylor who told about canvas
hack duck in Nebraska flying rings around
the smokestack Of a locomotive going
sixty miles an hour. r.r. =
Still. the fact that Taylor and Kahoe
are partners in the chase should in no
wise impair the veracity of Kahoe
One day last fall, so the story goes,
these two surrounded duck pond in the
woods. The hunters crept up from either
side, peered through the bush and beheld
the pond literally packed with ducks.
At signal Taylor and Kahoe blazed
away with both barrels right into the
middle of the flock. -r y,
To the surprise and chagrin Of the hunt
ers, the birds arose In a body and started
to fly away, without leaving SO much as
feather in the pond.
at him. Both were about to toss their SO
guns into the water when a strange thing
happened. r.
'It was the queerest sight T ever wit
nessed," said Kahoe. when the flock
got up a couple Of hundred feet dead
ducks commenced to drop, one after all
other. sa a. p.
"Then they came down in punches
while a great cloud Of feathers blew off
to the leeward. For about a minute the
sky rained ducks.
''You see, the flock was so tightly
packed in the pond that the survivors
after our shots, carried the dead ones
up with them.
''Then, when the flock loosened up a Bit
to escape in different directions, the dead
birds naturally dropped out Of the bunch
Jack and Il collected eigl1tyfour fine, fat
ducks and concluded not to hunt any
more that day" ,5a..
Give Kahoe, the prize. He deserves it.
