Farmers Wife Killed by a Tramp.

dispatch from New Martinsville, w.
Va, last night says: Because Mrs. J. w.
Fix, wife of farmer of Wileyville, refused
to cook him a breakfast. an unknown
tt amp killed her with a shotgun. The man
appeared at the Fix homestead just after
the farmhands had finished breakfast and
asked for something to eat. He was Of
fered cold meat, bread and butter, but re-
fused that. and in threatening terms in
sisted that she prepare a hot meal. He
became impudent, and she ordered him
from the premises. Knowing that she was
at his mercy, he pushed by her, seized a
shotgun and shot her head almost from
her shoulders. News of the murder spread
rapidly and men are securing the country
in search of the murderer. So intense is
the feeling against him that lynching may
follow his capture.

ARTIFICIAL APPLIANCES
FOR LURING WILD BIRDS

For the purpose of Turing wild duck
within the range of a gun artificial
decoys have long been in use but
evidently there are sportsmen who
are not entirely satisfied with them,
as otherwise the decoy mentioned
would not have been invented. A
simple and ingenious device it is. On
an anchor, which is mainly composed
of a tubular rod with a longitudinal
slot ar one side rests a decoy equipped
with movable wings and with mechan-
ism which enables it to move upward
and in other respects cleverly initiate
a real bird. Even the most vary duck.
it is claimed, cannot long Withstand
the allurements of this new decoy.
which can be used effectively in any
place where sport of this kind is to be
found. Whether Madison sportsmeB
or the many other duck hunters of tht
city will invest in the new tangled
wing-fiapping decoy remains to be
seen. Some of the local nimrOds are
seriously considering the proposition
The best decoy of all is wild mallard
duck caught young and trained like Z
bird cog not TO go crazy at the reports
of guns. Such decoys are scarce ano
few can afford them. The new tangled
decOy will take the place OF the train
ed mallarj to a certain extent.
