and the aged man, whose silver locks

his family about him and asked if all

John "Red') Fitzgerald took up
the quarrel (Which was none Of his

turned and drew a knife and started
to "carve.' Fitzgerald was scared
out and then both were arrested.

cuckoo, kildeer,. jacksnipe and many
others, and his limitations have carried

Contrary to general impression, Mr..
Probst gives his limitations without the

attained the present mastery over the
muscles of the mouth and throat thru
twenty, years of constant practice and
many days spent in the fields and other
haunts Of birds. 49,
"Several students Of bird calls have
made an attempt to set the calls to
music,'' says Mr. Probst, 'tbut bird
calls are not so susceptible to notation,
inasmuch as most of their notes are
several octaves above the clef, and
nearly all of them cover three or four
octaves and vary most rapidly in pitch.
The canary and linnet are the highest

their pitch. .,
