Chiffon GETS
ONLY A FINE
DE BOLT SAYS OFFENSE
WAS NOT VERY SERIOUS AND
DISAPPROVES THE LAW.

Harry B. Chiffon was sentenced this
morning by Judge De Bolt to pay a fine
of $3.50 for child-stealing. The judge
stated in passing sentence that the Of
tense was not one of such a serious ma
ture as had been described and that he
did not think it called for Imprisonment
He also remarked that the statute I'M
der which Chiffon was prosecuted was
one that ought not to be on the statute
books at all.
A motion for a new trial was made in
Chilton's behalf by j. w. Cathcart 1t
is based on many grounds and was ar
gued at some length. Judge De Bolt
denied the motion, and a plea for a
light sentence was then made.
THE evidence shows that the girl
was to a large extent a participant in
whatever deception was practiced on
her parents" said the court, land while
this does not affect the legal offense,
it will be considered in connection with
the sentence. The child was afraid to
return to her home. The offense in
this case is by no means of such an
aggravated character as the public has
been led to think"
An appeal was noted from the SEN
tence of the court.

these massacres assume the largest pro-
portions. As the season of the first mi
grafton of the quail approaches-that is,
in the end of March-the Egyptian gov
eminent puts up at auction and sells to
the highest bidders different positions on
the route to be traversed by the birds.
Here, before the return of the quail, lit
tie hutches are erected of about one foot
in height, which are covered with the
leaves of the date-palIns and contain
each two entrances. On reaching the
hot, burning sands of the Soudan the
quail. now plump little balls of fat after
their summer in the north, alight, weary
with their long flight and seek the
ready for their occupation. In a single
day a dealer will thus take as many as
10000 birds, and, as the traffic is car
ried on all along the shores of the Medi-
terranean for the whole period of migra-
ton, millions of quail are yearly cap
tured alive.
In spite, however, of their astonishing
fecundity, this wholesale slaughter of
the birds began to produce an appreci-
able effect, and in France, as indeed, in
other countries of Central Europe, it
was noticed that the focks were rapidly
decreasing in numbers. Unfortunately,
too, the demand-in London more part1c-
ularly-for the delicacy is as great in
the spring as in the autumn. although
the bird is then thin and out of condi-
ton. In order to meet this demand the
minister of the interior in 1878 authoriz-
ed the import and sale of quail through
out the breeding season. This decision
called forth an earnest protest from the
farmers, who valued the birds highly on
account of the quantity of weed seeds
and noxious insects consumed by them.
and from sportsmen, who foresaw a still
greater diminution, if not, indeed, the
utter determination of the game. Their
efforts were, however. fruitless, and the
immediate result was merely a develop
ment of the trade. To prepare the
spring birds for the table number OF
MERCHANTS in the neighborhood of Paris
undertook to fatten them artificially,
and, though the flesh after the process
lacked the delicate flavor of the au-
tunn birds, they al once began to figure
largely in the menus of the fashionable
hotels and restaurants OF the capitals

Effort to Prevent determination of
Valuable Game Birds.

Quails are deservedly among the most
valued Of the annual visitors of France.
Natives of the southern shores Of the

beginning of May. All through the
spring the woods resound with then
quaint little cry, in which the French
peasant hears the words, "Payee ties

English wet my feet" Laying from
nine to fifteen eggs, they rear their fam
ilies as far north as Britain, and then

BAD SPELLING.
Reflections on Ones Inability to Put
Right Letters in Right Place.


Besides being the seat of the North
western university and various other
educatioal institutions, Evanston, ILL.,
is the home of Prof. ]. Scott Clark-
who makes a fetch of correct orthog-
raphy. Recently many applicants 1or
admission to the Northwestern univer-
sity were rejected because of bad
spelling, and a special school was es-
tablished for instruction in TINS
branch How necessary such a school
is has been further shown by the dis
covery of 1,6O0 gross and in some cases
mischievous errors in spelling in the
revised ordinances of the town. Inc
cost of the missDelling to the commu-
nifty is several hundred dollars, the en-
tire edition of ordinances having been
DESTROYED and a new and corrected one
ordered. The blame primarily rests
on the committee of the common coun-
Gil to which the revision was intrusted.
In defense of themselves the members
of the committee have published a
communication to the public, In which
they protest against the Importance
which is generally given to good spell
ing. They affirm that the ability to
spell we'll is direct gift of heaven.
and cannot be acquired by those in
whom the gift is lacking. They deny
that there is any warrant for making
the ability to spell a test of reSoecta-
bility, or even of learning, and recite
that many men who have been emf
nent in different departments of enter
prise have been constantly guilty OF
erroneous photography. They include
in the list George Washington and
many statesmen whose intelligence has
never been doubted.
Probably it is a mistake to say that
any person with an average memory
cannot learn to SPELL AS there is a
lack of analogy in the spelling of
words, learning to spell is chiefly a
matter of memory. Repetition is the
only secret about it. There are some
aids. but it is the words to which there
is no guide which are the common
source of trouble. Persons who do not
spell we'll have simply neglected the
study of orthographys and are not en-
titled to the sympathy they ask. Oper-
ators of typewriting machines who
! have considered themselves the victims
! of a defective photographed memory
| have often become good spoilers
! through practice In a vast proportion
/ of cases bad spelling may be traced to
wrong pronunciation, which is even
more frequent than is wrong spelling.
| Probably the modern methods of in
struction have something to do with
/ the number of bad spoilers among
| fairly educated people, The old spell
4 ing bee system insured repetition. In
recent years the writing of the spelling
lesson has in many schools taken the
and women who had gone through the
! district school of half a century or
more ago were almost invariably good
/ spoilers. If, as the Evanston council
men maintain. spelling be a gift, it is
apparent that it is not bestowed on
man as literally as formerly.-Phila-
